Choosing Better Home Products Cabinet Hardware

The current Better Home Products cabinet hardware assortment is led by solid bar pulls for kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, drawers, built-ins, and furniture. Bar pulls provide a straightforward linear grip and are available in multiple lengths, making it possible to use related hardware across cabinet doors and drawers of different sizes. Start with the mounting dimensions before comparing appearance or finish.

For replacement hardware, center-to-center spacing is the critical measurement. Measure from the center of one existing screw hole to the center of the other rather than measuring the overall pull length. Two pulls can have nearly identical overall dimensions while using different mounting centers, and even small differences in hole spacing can require redrilling the cabinet front.

Overall length and projection affect both proportion and everyday use. Longer pulls can suit wide drawers and taller cabinet doors, while shorter versions can maintain the same style on smaller fronts. Projection determines finger clearance and how far the pull extends into the room, so check adjacent walls, corner cabinets, appliance panels, and opposing doors before selecting a larger size.

Cabinet thickness and screw length should also be confirmed. Standard supplied screws may work for common cabinet doors but can be too short or too long for thick drawer fronts or specialty panels. Verify the mounting hardware included with the product and use fasteners appropriate for the cabinet construction. The pull should tighten securely without bottoming out or damaging the finished surface.

For new installations, choose a pull size that fits the scale of the cabinetry and use a drilling template or consistent measurement method across similar doors and drawers. Once center-to-center size, overall dimensions, projection, and mounting are established, finish can be selected to coordinate with hinges, faucets, appliances, lighting, or other visible hardware in the room.
