How to select a cabinet knob
Selecting the right cabinet door knob can greatly improve the look of
your cabinetry.
With literally thousands of choices out there, it may be
difficult to settle on a particular style. First you should determine
the material that would look best on your cabinet door. Once that has
been decided, making your selection should be easier to make.
Wood is the perfect material for those of you who are on a budget. A
wood knob can be painted or stained to match your cabinetry. Plastic
also offers a low cost alternative, but tends to look out of place
against cabinetry that has an exposed wood grain, but for painted wood
it could fit just right. Acrylic knobs are also available at a lesser
cost, and can look very similar to antique glass knobs, giving your
cabinetry an antique look without an antique price.
Stainless steel is a favorite cabinet knob material for kitchens since
it is easier to clean and care for than most metals. The color and
natural finish will look good against any cabinet background. Stainless
steel has become a very popular material for cabinet door knobs, and is
now available in vast selection of styles.
Cabinetry with a rich wood tone looks best with metal knobs that are
made of high quality materials such as brass or chrome. With hundreds of
finish colors available, you will have no trouble finding knobs with
silver, gold, or bronze coloring.
Additionally, you can choose from a
huge selection matte and high shine options, giving you a seemingly
unlimited number of possibilities.
