Kitchen Handle Styles – What’s Right for Your Space?

Choosing the right handle is about more than just appearance—it also impacts the usability and feel of cabinetry. Below are the main types of handles available across the collections.

Bar Handles – Simple & Contemporary

A sleek, modern option, bar handles provide a contemporary touch and work well across both drawers and cupboards. Their straight, simple design makes them easy to use and a great choice for modern kitchens.

Bow Handles – Soft Curves for a Subtle Finish

Bow handles feature a gentle curve, making them a more decorative alternative to bar handles. Their ergonomic design makes them comfortable to use while providing a slightly softer aesthetic.

D Handles – Practical & Timeless

A classic and practical choice, D handles offer a well-balanced combination of style and functionality. They are easy to use and suit a wide range of kitchen styles.

Cup Handles – Traditional & Characterful

Cup handles, also known as bin pulls, are perfect for shaker-style and classic kitchens. Their semi-circular design provides a sturdy grip while adding a vintage-inspired touch.

Knobs – Versatile & Understated

Knobs are compact, easy to install, and work well across both drawers and cupboards. Available in round, square, and rectangular designs, they add subtle detailing to cabinetry.

Edge Pulls – Minimalist & Modern

Edge pulls are ideal for handle-less kitchen designs, offering a discreet yet functional way to open doors and drawers. Their sleek, low-profile design works well in contemporary and minimalist spaces.

Choosing the Right Finish for Kitchen Handles

The finish of kitchen handles can dramatically impact the overall aesthetic of the space. A selection of finishes ensures options to suit different styles and preferences:

Popular Kitchen Handle Finishes

• Brushed Nickel – A subtle, matte finish that blends seamlessly with stainless steel appliances.
• Antique Copper – A warm, rich finish that adds character to traditional and rustic kitchens.
• Matte Black – A bold, modern choice that creates striking contrast against light cabinetry.
• Satin Brass – A soft, elegant finish that adds a hint of luxury.
• Chrome – A polished, reflective finish for a clean and contemporary feel.
• Stainless Steel – A durable and timeless option that suits a variety of designs.

Matching handles to worktops, appliances, and cabinetry ensures a harmonious and well-coordinated look.

Handle Accessories – The Small Details That Matter

Beyond selecting the right style and finish, handle accessories enhance both appearance and durability. A selection of accessories includes:
