Which cabinet hardware should we go with?

9 years ago

In my hand, the slimmer pull is from Home Depot. It's the Liberty "Plaza" pull. The chunkier pull is Berenson "Elevate" and the knob in my hand coordinates with it. The Berenson knob and pull were quite a bit bigger than I thought it would be but I only saw them online. The knob 1 1/2 inches in measurement. Is that oversized?

I attached a picture with the coordinating Plaza knob that goes with the Plaza pull. I am not as big a fan of the knob because I think it's too contemporary.

So yeah, I am being super unsure of myself right now. Both pulls have the same style, but I like the Berenson knob better than the Plaza knob. I wonder if despite the fact that I like the presence of it, the Berenson hardware is just too bulky? We haven't met with the trim man yet so maybe meeting with him can also help make some decisions.

Kind of hard to see them inside the bag.
Also what is the style of your cabinets? Do you have a picture ?

We haven't met the trim guy yet, but we want Shaker style cabinets. Here are the berenson elevate pulls and knobs.

Obviously those are really modern pulls and knobs.
I think the style would look great with the clean straight lines of a shaker style cabinet.

The size of course will need to account for the scale of the kitchen and the cabinets.

I would also have countertop edges that are more square (eased edge) rather than rounded (avoid ogee or bullnose)

None of the above. Not very good quality.

Herr, I believe we are doing squared edge for our granite counters.

Our kitchen has a coffered ceilings so on one side we will have an 8 foot ceiling so the cabinets will go up to that ceiling and then on the other, we have 9 foot ceilings and they will go up to the ceiling there. I agree with your thoughts on if they will be the right scale.

We are actually meeting with our builder and the trim guy tomorrow. We'll see what they have to say.
