Plumbing Supply Birmingham AL: Choosing New Hardware for Your Kitchen Remodel

Choosing new cabinet hardware for your kitchen remodel can seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be.

It should be a fun and exciting time! 

Below are some points to consider when it comes to making a good decision for new cabinet hardware. 

• Consider the Style of Your Kitchen: Take a look at the overall style of your kitchen.

     Is it modern, traditional, farmhouse, or something else? Your cabinet hardware should                             complement the existing style.

      For example look at this beautiful choice from Top Knobs - Aspen Collection: Round Knob in              Light Bronze.

• Think About Finishes: Decide on the finish that best suits your kitchen style and other fixtures.
  
  Common options include brushed nickel, chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, brass, and matte black.
  
  Make sure the finish coordinates with other elements in your kitchen, such as faucets and light fixtures.
  
  Below are some popular finishes.

• Choose a Type of Hardware: There are various types of cabinet hardware, including knobs, pulls, handles, and even cup pulls.

      Make a list of all the pieces you will need.

• Measure Your Cabinets: Before purchasing any hardware, measure the distance between the pre-existing holes on your cabinets.

       You want to make sure your new hardware fits properly. If you're switching from knobs to pulls             (or vice versa), make sure to measure the new hole spacing as well.

• Think About Comfort and Functionality: Consider the ergonomics of your cabinet hardware.

       Will it be comfortable to use on a daily basis? Pulls with rounded edges may be more                             comfortable to grip than those with sharp angles.

• Test Samples: Once you've narrowed down your options, order samples of your preferred hardware finishes and styles.

      Place them on your cabinets and drawers to see how they look and feel in your space.

• Consider Durability: Invest in high-quality hardware that will withstand daily wear and tear. Solid metal hardware tends to be more durable than plastic or hollow options.

• Stay Consistent: Choose hardware that creates a cohesive look throughout your kitchen. While mixing metals can sometimes work, it's usually best to stick with one finish for a unified appearance.

• Budget Considerations: Cabinet hardware comes in a wide range of price points. Set a budget for your hardware and prioritize quality and durability within that budget.

• Installation: If you're not comfortable installing the hardware yourself, consider hiring a professional to ensure proper placement and alignment.
