hardware size dilemma on 36” cabinets!

2 years ago

Looking for advice on hardware sizing for 36” drawer stacks. I’ve seen the rule of 1/3, the problem is finding a pull I like in that length. 10-11” would be perfect but the one I really like only comes in 320mm and 224mm. I considered two pulls but I noticed the drawer does shift when pulled from one side. I managed to tape them on the stack to get a better idea.

Top option is 256mm berenson Haliburton - square with rounded grip
Middle is 320mm in berenson swagger (ignore that the sample is black nickel)
Bottom option is 224mm berenson swagger

Which looks best?

Sort by:Oldest

I like the largest handle in the middle. It seems most proportional to the large drawer; however, if I weren't able to see all three, I would also find the top option acceptable. I think the smallest one looks too small for the drawer.

Kudos on your extreme taping skills.

Based on the pictures I’d go with the top one.

For me, the bottom one is too narrow. I think the top two are equal and based on personal preference. I'd probably choose the top one.

I like the top one. Great idea to tape them up that way to get a visual!

I like middle one the best as length looks proportional to drawer inset. But, the top one is a close second so I’d pick the one of those two that feels the best ergonomically for your hand.

I would not compare them at the same time...do 1 by 1 and let your eye tell you where the balance is.
