For those with Bin Pulls / Cup Pulls on kitchen drawers...

13 years ago

What type of hardware did you use for the cabinet doors? Need some inspiration. Pics would be great! Thanks!

When I was looking for cup pulls and knobs in an oil rubbed finish, someone on this forum mentioned Cripe Distributing for the best price. They were certainly right! 25 knobs or pulls for $14.00. $28 + shipping later and my whole kitchen was done. Much better than paying $5/per. They've held up beautifully and it's been over 2 years now.

Here is a link that might be useful: Cripe Distributing

I agree that you shouldn't use bin pulls on doors. I think it would be awkward to open a door with a bin pull as opposed to a knob or a regular pull -- especially uppers. Use the cobalt blue glass knobs on your doors -- the combination with the bin pulls and your granite sounds beautiful! Also, IMO, you should use two bin pulls on any drawer that is 30 inches or wider, and/or where you have two cabinet doors below the drawer. I used three different kinds of hardware in my kitchen: bin pulls, suitcase pulls and knobs. The pic below shows all three. (The suitcase pull is on the trash pullout). Also, on every drawer 27" or wider, I used two pulls, with each pull centered over the doors below. Good luck!

Mine are different because they're frosted glass (coolknobsandpulls, great prices). Neither of these pix show the pulls terribly well:

Cup Pulls or Regular Pulls?
Q
Comments (24)
We've had cup pulls on all our kitchen drawers and I find them very comfortable to use. Our kitchen is transitional/contemporary and the pulls we used fit very nicely with that style, IMO. There are a great many styles of cup pulls - some are very retro and others are more sleek and modern. Ours are very smooth and we chose a large size which I think makes them more comfortable to use. I've seen some cup pulls that were formed from sheet metal and the edges of those where too thin to be comfortable for me. Ours are cast so the edge is comfortable. Whatever hardware you choose, I'd recommend getting samples to try first so you can see if they are comfortable to use. The cup pulls in the catalog you linked to look like their edge might be a bit too squared off for comfortable use. We haven't had any issues with them getting dirty. I'd be more concerned about the difficulty of keeping pulls with groves clean.

Cup Pulls: Knob on 5 piece TOP Drawer Vs. Using Slab Drawer?
Q
Comments (21)
My cab maker said our top drawers will be 4 3/4" and with rails there will be 1 3/4" space in between for hardware. Springroz has 3" space in between and Christine has 6" drawers with 3" in between. That could be the difference. Out of our 26 drawers, only 8 are small top drawers so maybe I should do slab on those. Looking back I do like the look for the top drawer. I was just "scared" that without a bead they may be too plain but I think with everything else that goes on in a kitchen it will probably look great anyway! Just making sure with cab maker all the top drawers are 4 3/4" before I make a final decision : )

I meant to include that we chose the strap pulls partly because we had strap pulls in our original kitchen, so I didn't want to change that to knobs.

Dian57- I was checking out cripe. what a great deal! It says does not include screws for knobs or pulls. Is that how all hardware is? Or just that place? Did you just go to home depot and find screws that fit?

I took one pull and one knob to my local hardware store and had the screws matched without a problem. They were a standard size. Even with the small additional cost of the screws, it's still an amazing deal.

Dian-
Thank you for posting about Cripe. I just placed my order, and even though I had to order quite a bit extra due to the lot size, I still only paid $58, including shipping.

Can't wait to get them.

I'll use the extra knobs in the bathroom. :)

My son and DIL are renovating their kitchen and ordered both the bins and pulls. You really can't beat the price.
