The Knobs Company — Cabinet Knobs, Pulls & Hardware

We carry over 25 brands of cabinet hardware, including most of the top names in the industry. Virtually all of the brands fall into one of two categories. Brands that custom make their products to order, such as Rocky Mountain Hardware and Edgar Berebi, make them in the United States. The custom production also means that these brands have premium prices and slower shipping times. Brands that mass produce their products, such as Top Knobs and Jeffery Alexander Hardware, produce them overseas and warehouse them in the United States. These brands have lower price points and faster shipping times than their custom made competitors.

Knobs are single-mount round, square, or sculptural pieces — typically used on doors and smaller drawers. Pulls are linear handles with two mounting points (drill-centers), generally used on larger drawers or full-overlay cabinet doors. Many kitchens mix the two: knobs on doors, pulls on drawers.

Absolutely — and many designers actively prefer it. The most common pattern is knobs on cabinet doors and pulls on drawers, ideally within the same finish family. Mixing different finishes can also work if done deliberately (e.g., polished nickel pulls with brushed nickel knobs for subtle contrast).

Appliance pulls are oversized pulls (typically 12" to 18" center-to-center) used on panel-ready refrigerators, dishwashers, freezer drawers, and warming drawers. The size is dictated by the appliance manufacturer's panel hardware and door dimensions — measure your existing pull or check your appliance's spec sheet.

Pull length scales to drawer width — a small drawer takes a 3" pull while a wide pantry drawer might call for 12" or longer. The 'drill-centers' measurement (the distance between the screw holes) is what matters for replacement; the overall length is usually 1"–2" longer than that.
