Cabinet Hardware
If by any means you have a more traditional kitchen decor, then you should always apply the general rule which is to use knobs on doors and pulls on drawers. This standard notion is only meant to be discouraged if speaking about smaller spaces, such as a bathroom.
Now for transitional and modern design spaces, it doesn’t really matter if where you put your knobs or pulls, but you should always opt for a sleek aesthetic.
“When drawers are 24” wide or wider, we often like to double up on knobs or pulls. To place this hardware correctly, divide the drawer into thirds and place the hardware in the left and right portions of the drawer.” – Studio McGee
4 – When it comes to built-in refrigerators, the best option is to buy appliance pulls in order to ensure that they are proportional to larger paneled doors and drawers.
5 – Concerning installing knobs, if you are looking for a more modern/contemporary feel, then you ought to place the bottom of a knob in upper cabinetry whereas the top part should be placed in base cabinetry, flushed with the edge of the frame.
