Within your home, you have many items that use handles, including dressers, kitchen cabinets, drawers, entertainment center doors, etc. Those handles can wear out, break off, or loosen and no amount of house cleaning will fix that problem. If they are just loose, you can easily fix that problem. But if they are worn, faded, chipped, scratched, or stained; you would be better off replacing them.

Cabinet handles come in various materials, including:

  • Chrome
  • Satin-nickel
  • Stainless steel
  • Bronze
  • Oil rubbed bronze
  • Brass
  • Plastic
  • Vinyl
  • Oak
  • Pine
  • Poplar
  • Etc.

Depending on the application it will be used for, you can choose a material and style that fits right in with the décor. A dark dresser may look great with bronze or stainless steel, while a white dresser can look great with satin-nickel or chrome hardware. Because there are so many options, you can find something to fit your style with ease.

Handle Uses

So many different items need handles in order to function. Your dressers, your drawers, your pantry, your kitchen cabinets, and many others all need pulls and handles so you have something to grab to open them. Your entertainment center has doors that need handles. The kitchen needs handles for the cabinet doors and the drawers. You pantry needs one to be able to open it. Your dressers need handles so you can easily pull the drawers out. The list could go on.

In addition to the standard uses for cabinet handles, you can be creative and decorate with them too! Try mounting some on a board and then mounting the board to the wall. You now have a hanger for jewelry, hats, pictures, or anything else you can decorate the wall with.

In addition, you can use the handles on coat hanging racks, on the tops of lids for jars, on wooden dowel ends to make curtain rods, and many other imaginative ideas. Because there are so many designs, materials, and styles; you can be very creative and still find the right one to fit your needs.
