Distinctive cabinet handles and knobs: detail design

Handles and knobs: the details that make the difference

Special wardrobe handles, as well as knobs, are characterised by design details that can embellish furniture throughout the home, from the living area to the sleeping area, not forgetting the bathroom. The possibilities for customisation are endless, no matter what the style of the home. In fact, handles come in different shapes, materials and costs so as to satisfy any requirement in terms of cost and style.

Choosing special wardrobe handles is important for customising the furniture in your home. Here is everything you need to know to find the perfect customised solution for your home.

Special design handles and knobs

Thanks to special design details, furniture handles and knobs make all the difference in furnishing a room by bringing a personalised touch to any room. In fact, even these functional design elements make a difference, precisely because if they are in line with the rest of the house they are an expression of one’s own aesthetic taste. It is no coincidence that when planning or renovating your home, it is also very important to choose the handles and furniture knobs with care. In fact, depending on the model chosen, the appearance of the home changes completely.

Special wardrobe handles: the style of the home

Those who need to furnish, for example, a kitchen in a classic style cannot do without choosing a refined handle, or knob, in ceramic that stands out for its decorative features. On the other hand, a door without knobs and handles is ideal for furnishing a modern, minimalist kitchen.

Making the right choice between different handles is first and foremost a question of taste. Indeed, regardless of the model, their function remains the same, which is to facilitate the opening and closing of doors and drawers. In any case, the size must be considered before choosing the most suitable model. For handles, it is necessary to consider the centre distance, the distance between the two holes and the length of the handle. Whereas for the knob, the diameter of the hole and the height of the knob must be measured.

What is the difference between handle and knob?

Not everyone is aware of this, but there is a fundamental difference between a handle and a knob. In fact, handles are mounted on cupboard doors, while knobs are generally used on drawers to allow them to open. Furthermore, handles have two holes for mounting, while the knob has only one hole.

Special wardrobe handles: available materials

When choosing handles, as mentioned above, the material in which they are made must be taken into consideration. The main ones among these are:

• Steel: ideal for modern and minimalist environments. Special wardrobe handles for are easy to clean and resistant to oxidation.
• Brass, ideal for classic style environments.
• Wood, perfect for a classic kitchen, a rustic and retro style environment, from boho chic to vintage.
• Ceramic, ideal for a classic style environment.
• Polypropylene, perfect for light and resistant handles ideal for furnishing a modern and minimalist style environment.

In addition to the materials, what makes the difference are the details. In fact, these together with the finish, which can be glossy or satin, bronzed or patinated, contribute to furnishing modern or classic style environments.

The design and shape of handles and knobs

The shape of cabinet handles can be extremely variable. Needless to say, the details make all the difference. Just think of children’s bedrooms with wardrobes equipped with handles and knobs in the shape of a flower, heart, star and moon. There are many original shapes. It is no coincidence that the more they are special and characterised by details, the better you are able to personalise every room in your home without forgetting style and taste.

Renovating a room and an antique piece of furniture

When renovating the décor, you don’t have to rearrange the décor, furniture and accessories in your home. It’s the details that make the difference! So it is possible to give the whole house a different look and style by simply replacing an old piece of furniture. What’s more, this can be done with very little effort and at no cost. It is no coincidence that once an antique piece of furniture has been restored, special cabinet handles are ideal for giving the entire room an original and creative touch.

The costs of special wardrobe handles

Obviously, before choosing the right special wardrobe handle model for your home, it is necessary not only to consider the aesthetics, but also the costs. These depend on the type of material used, the finish, the details and also the shape. So from a few tens of euros, these, especially if handmade, can reach up to thirty euros.
