Hardware 101

• Petite pulls: With a smaller profile than pulls, knobs are also relatively affordable.


• May steal your heart but are easy to replace: Their straightforward, single-point installation allows you to swap/replace them with ease.


• May steal your heart but are easy to replace: Their straightforward, single-point installation allows you to swap/replace them with ease. There are plenty of Knobs in the sea: This category offers a large assortment of choices: from traditional round knobs and contemporary minimal flat disks to dynamic & organic shapes.


• Ideal usability & restrictions: If your goal is to elevate existing furniture or add character to basic joinery (kitchen cabinets, drawers), then knobs add the perfect amount of visual impact over a longer pull. However, these aren’t ideal for heavy-duty use.

Petition to convert “knob” from an insult to a compliment?

• Let us hook you up: This versatile purpose-packed product looks like a knob’s buff cousin. It has a curved or indented section to help it hold onto your things while you have fun.


• Hang on: Be it your kitchen, bathroom, an empty wall, the back of a door or the entrance to your house – having a place to readily hang your things is key to an organised life.

• Pulls are strong and don’t come easy – but they’re worth it. Usually installed using 2 screws for maximum strength and durability. If unsure of how to install, it’s best to get a professional to help to avoid costly mistakes. Pulls are secure and durable, ideal for heavier drawers, appliances and cabinets.


• The sweet-spot between beauty & functionality Smaller than a door handle & larger than a knob, pulls come in many sizes, finishes & style variations.⁠ Their strong build gets the job and look good while doing it.


• Ideal For: They can be used on most types of cabinets and other medium-sized or small furniture such as drawers, closets, under-bench cupboards and tall doors. Be mindful of the orientation for smooth usability.


• It always comes down to Knobs vs Pulls: Although knobs and pulls can be used interchangeably, knobs are usually used on doors and pull on drawers. Whether you choose all knobs or all pulls or a combination of both, there are no rules but it helps to envision what will feel better, according to space and movement.

Types of Pulls

EDGE/FINGER PULL: Great for easy handling of small furniture/cabinets while maintaining a sleek, stealthy and elegant appearance that run-of-mill hardware is known to kill. If your space craves something modern and minimalist, edge pulls are the way to go.

Cabinet/Appliance Pull: These are usually the long and heavy duty handles that help you seamlessly open your appliance/closet door. Making the search for snacks in your kitchen more fun.

Block/Wedge Pull: As the name suggests, these can be easily identified by its block-like form. They come in a broad range of shapes from simple timber wedges to more sculptural bronze pieces! Be mindful of the projection and profile as it determines its ease of use.

• Don’t be shy, air it out- What is the first place you go to as you wake up and the last before you head to bed? Chances are, it’s your bathroom. Our morning and night routines sometimes set the mood that we’ll be in. You really shouldn’t have to stare blankly at a dull wall as you do your business. Towel Rails not only accent your bathroom walls elegantly but also allow your towels to stay dry and fresh after each use.


• Size (and position) matters- Be it small hand towels or large bath towels – every towel should have a home to hang on to. When installing, keep away from electrical appliances, make it easily accessible and ensure your towels don’t touch the floor once hung.

• Let us handle it- ‘Handle’ is the part of an object designed to hold, control or carry it. In our case, handles (usually bigger than pulls) are the attached hardware on cabinets and doors to open, close and admire. A well-crafted handle will, quite literally, handle its sensory and functional duties – it will be beautiful, easy to use and durable.


• First Impressions are the last- Entrance handles carry the additional responsibility of being the first point of contact with your home, giving a preview of what you should expect.


• Ideal For- Available in many sizes and finishes they are generally quite large making them suitable for large main doors, entrance doors, double doors, flat panel/slab door profiles of large furniture, and lasting first impressions.

Hardware is to objects what design is to art – the difference between something ‘beautiful’, as opposed to a functional tool that meets its predetermined purpose.
