Cabinet & Furniture Pulls

Measure the center-to-center distance between existing screw holes or the handle you want to match; common center-to-center sizes are 3, 3.5, and 6 inches. Consider projection (how far the pull sticks out) for hand clearance—1 to 1.5 inches is typical for cabinets, while larger furniture pieces may need more projection for comfortable use

Popular materials include zinc alloy, stainless steel, brass, and aluminum; stainless steel and solid brass offer higher corrosion resistance and durability. Choose a finish (brushed, polished, matte, or plated) that matches your cabinetry and daily use—brushed and matte finishes hide fingerprints and wear better than high-polish finishes

Check the thickness of the door or drawer front—most pulls come with machine screws in standard lengths; 3/4 to 1 inch screws work for typical cabinet fronts (3/4"–1" thick), while thicker doors or added backers require longer screws. If replacing existing pulls, use the original screws for matching; otherwise measure thickness and order appropriate screw lengths or adjustable screws

Yes—sleek bar and tubular pulls suit modern kitchens and utility areas, cup and drop pulls are common for traditional furniture and drawers, and decorative or ornate pulls fit vintage or formal furniture. Match style to the room’s overall design and existing hardware to maintain visual coherence

Cabinet and furniture pulls commonly range from budget options under $50 to higher-end pieces over $100 per set, depending on material, finish, brand, and design complexity. Solid metal construction, designer brands, and specialty finishes raise the price compared with plated or mass-produced options

Clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water; avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals that can damage finishes. For brass or metal that tarnishes, use a manufacturer-recommended polish or a gentle, non-abrasive metal cleaner; tighten mounting screws periodically to prevent loosening

Yes—mixing pulls and knobs is a common approach for function and style (e.g., pulls on drawers, knobs on doors) but keep consistent finishes or complementary styles to maintain cohesion. Stick to a limited palette of finishes and repeat key shapes to avoid a disjointed look
