How pulls, knobs, cup pulls and edge pulls differ in look, comfort, placement and cleaning.
Hardware changes the look of cabinets more than almost anything else. Knobs are small and round or square and attach with a single screw. Pulls are longer and attach with two screws. Cup pulls have a curved bowl shape. Edge pulls are mounted along the top or side edge of a door or drawer so nothing shows on the face. Each has a different feel and a different style.
Many kitchens use knobs on doors and pulls on drawers, which is a classic pairing. Larger drawers suit longer pulls. Finish matters as well, such as brass, black, nickel or bronze. Nashville homeowners often match hardware to faucets and lighting. We bring samples to your kitchen and use templates to place each piece so the lines stay straight.
