What color cabinet hardware??

3 years ago

I cannot make any more decisions and need help! We need to select the color for our cabinet pulls and knobs and I'm not sure which to go with. Our cabinets are BM Revere Pewter with soapstone countertops. Our faucet is Champagne Bronze from Delta. Our lighting is hammered brass. Not sure if we should do Top Knobs Honey Bronze to coordinate with the faucet or something contrasting.

    If everything has been installed in your kitchen, please show us a picture of it for context. If not, do you have a sample cabinet door you could show next to those two finishes? I'm having difficulty picturing Revere Pewter with honey bronze in my head. Is your sink going to be SS or something else?

    Still under construction and nothing is installed yet.

    why not wait until everything is in, or mostly completed before picking the hardware? what's the rush?

    I'd also do a pull, not a knob.

    did you get your inspo from this?

    I like the handle on these cabs, not so much the knobs



    this one too




    this color is ipretty


    revere pewter w/more of an antique brass. I really like these handles too


    Cosmas and Koofizo on amazon has a lot of styles and colors. grab some samples.


    for another option, check out AliExpress. their handles are cheap because you cut out the middleman. I've ordered at least 6 diff variations off that site.

    Even leaning towards a copper color could work, but @Beth H is right - hardware is second to last decision. (Backsplash is dead last decision. Don’t rush that one either.)

    Agreed to wait if you can.
    But definitely match the faucet. Otherwise I feel like there will be too many shades…

    Thank you all for your feedback.


    Yes BethH, that first picture was one of a few inspirational pictures for our kitchen! :) I will try out the places you recommended for hardware. I think I will hold off until the cabinets and counters are installed. No backsplash just yet, that is waiting until the kitchen is completely done and we are in with lighting and all that good stuff. Thanks again!

    DM, I love that first picture. will your cabs look similar?

    I also really like the tumbled marble tile too. it's very 'old' looking and goes w/the style of the cabs. love the inset.

    I'd just get some handles that match what they've used.

    have you seen Koofizo on amazon? they look like this


    do you know which variety soapstone youre getting? we just had a huge discussion about this on another post.

    @Beth H. : and @RedRyder "why not wait until everything is in, or mostly completed before picking the hardware?" "hardware is second to last decision" Does this hold true if you're doing custom cabinets, especially panel ready appliances? I want to provide the pulls to the cabinet makers to drill holes in the right spots. Some pulls I've found give the measurements in metric rather than inches; and some lines don't have a bunch of size options. (Found one appliance pull I liked, but the matching cabinet pulls were just small and weird.) Do they drill the holes on site after cabinets are installed?

    normally whomever is installing the cabs will also drill them on site. I've never seen cabs come delivered w/pre-drilled holes.

    what if you change your mind once they are installed??

    order some samples of handles. if you find one that you are sure you must have, The cabinet builder can drill them for you. But, you better be positive the holes are exactly where you want them

    and the cabinet guy better be dead-on even where he's drilling.

    it's just better and easier to do once everything is hanging. this way you can see how they're going to look in diff positions.








    I like all pulls


    but maybe you like a combo


  • 3 years ago

    There are too many options for WHERE the pulls/knobs go to make this decision too quickly. I probably bought 15 different options of hardware before I made up my mind in my refaced kitchen.


    Please wait to choose these when the cabinets, countertop and sink are installed.


    People think they can choose everything in advance (no thanks to HGTV) but it's not the best idea. Hardware and backsplash tiles are best chosen in the actual semi-finished kitchen. WITH your lighting choices installed as well since that affects these other two.
