Hardware for thin shaker cabinets

4 years ago
last modified: 4 years ago

We are renovating our kitchen and have shaker cabinets with 3/4" railings. We now have to pick hardware and want something minimal. I really like this kitchen by Nate Fisher interiors: https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-chateau-pj-vj~6043226How wide do you the pulls and knobs are here? Also, if people have suggestions for hardware that goes well with thin shaker cabinets, please let me know.

    You mean this? Your link does not work.



    You don't state a finish. Note.......none of that hardware is on the rail. Yours, won't be either.

    You need to give us more info regarding YOUR kitchen. Minimal is a LOT of hardware. All pulls? Knobs and pulls? What finish? we certainly do not know.

    Edge tabs. The traditional knobs on that kitchen look lost, and at a cross purpose to the whole.

    Narrow shaker design. These pulls seem a bit traditional, but it is a house in London. I might have centered all the pulls, not just the top drawers.

    It's not really any different than regular cabinets - choose what you like.

    Yes, @JAN MOYER, that's the one I was thinking about. Here is the link again. @Debbi Washburn, I like the hardwares in the pictures you attached. If I want to achieve that look, how thin do you think the pulls and knobs have to be? 1/2'' or thinner? I am finding it hard to find good quality knobs and pulls that are that thin.


    In terms of the finish, I am deciding between polished nickel or dark bronze. My faucets are polished nickel, but our lighting fixtures are dark bronze, so I think I could go with either.


    In terms of the color of the kitchen, the island is Studio Green (F&B) and the perimeter cabinets and pantry cabinets are Purbeck Stone (F&B). Here are some pictures.


    One thing to note is that because I wanted to minimize hardware, we went with touch latch for all the doors that do not have appliances, so the only knobs/pulls we need are for the drawers. So, for the island, we need pulls/knobs for 18 drawers (9 on either of the long sides) and 3 drawers on the shorter side. On the shorter side of the island (opposite the stove), only the three drawers on the left are working drawers, the three on the right are fake doors where we could add hardware for symmetry but we don't have to. For the perimeter cabinets, we need 4 appliance pulls (fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and trash) and three drawer pulls, two of which are actually split drawers. In addition, we need some knobs and pulls for the drawers in the pantry, but I will spare you those details.

    I have a feeling you want to lean more modern than this. But I think these can be so beautiful! And so cool!

    I stick to Top Knobs. Nobody has as many finishes in as many sizes. The quality is EXCELLENT, and at some point , the only way to select is to order "onesies" and test. You had best get on the stick with that and soon. We don't make any of this in the USA............

    I have screen shot all that are "minimal, closed ends as open is nothing more than ruin of your pant pockets

    You can get singles to test on many sites, Wayfair, Amazon etc. Your cabinet people may have an account directly with Top Knobs. You will notice virtually all of those below have a match in "appliance" pull. You need those BEFORE the panel can even go on the appliance. Stop thinking about specks of a single inch. The look of a pull is affected by how it mounts. You want it streamlined. I've used only Top Knobs

    https://www.topknobs.com/

    for eons. So too does my KD.

    I screen shot ( EACH ) the full page so you can see multiple size/finish options.

    Your other option would be edge pulls.....last picture, multiple sizes. ( Forge Hardware )

    The tab/edge is great........but not as great on clad appliances.

    She is already touch latch on doors.

    I agree with Jan - we sell Top Knobs and Emtek. Excellent hardware! Appliance pulls for the ref are going to be beefier than cabinet pulls.

    That knot pull you posted was awesome! I would not do that on drawers though - maybe on a glass door cabinet or hutch piece.

    Tab pulls are great and so is the square pull from Top knobs. Since you have no handles on the doors, I would lean more toward the tab pulls since they are less noticeable.

    Good luck!
