Knobs vs. Pulls: Which Is Better for Your Kitchen Cabinets?

With sufficient storage, your kitchen will look organized, uncluttered and more appealing. You can ensure there is a space for everything while maintaining the beauty of your kitchen by choosing the right cabinet styles. For your new cabinets, you can either go for knobs or pulls. 

What Are the Benefits of Knobs?

Knobs come in a wide variety of designs, colors, shapes and finishes. Whether you prefer colored knobs or wooden ones, there is an option for you. This option allows you to customize your kitchen better. Your contractor can install kitchen knobs within minutes. While these components are small, they make a huge difference in your kitchen. 

Moreover, you do not need to spend a significant amount on new cabinet knobs. There are many cost-effective options available on the market. However, you can go for higher-end products if you want your kitchen cabinets to complement your sophisticated granite countertops

Why Choose Pulls?

Like knobs, pulls are also easy to install since they only usually require two screws. The most common types of pulls include birdcage, bar, ring, arch, bail and cup. Pulls are available in various lengths, with three to four inches being the most popular.

Choosing the right length of pull is essential in maintaining the appeal of your kitchen cabinets. When the pull is too small or short, the cabinet can become overpowering. If it is too large, it will not look proportioned to your cabinets. One way to determine the ideal length of pulls for your cabinets is to mark them with painter’s tape. 

Whether you should choose knobs or pulls depends on your personal preference and the style of your kitchen.
