Choosing Handle Size For Cabinets
How do I know which size to buy for my existing cabinets?
The most critical measurement is the "Centre-to-Centre" (C-C) distance. This is the exact millimetre distance between the two screw holes drilled into your door or drawer. Do not measure the overall length of your old handle, as designs vary. If your current holes are 128mm apart, you must buy the 128mm model. If you are drilling new holes, you have the freedom to choose based on the scale of your drawers.
Handle Screws And Drawer Thickness
Do these come with screws, and will they fit my drawer thickness?
Yes, each handle comes with standard M4 mounting screws (typically 22mm or 25mm long), which suit standard 16mm-18mm cabinet board thicknesses. However, if you are installing these on drawers with a double-thickness face (where the drawer front is attached to a drawer box), you may need to purchase "snap-off" screws or longer M4 screws separately from a hardware store to reach through both layers.
Solid Vs Hollow Cabinet Handles
Are these handles solid or hollow?
The H2330 series is manufactured from Zinc Alloy. Unlike cheap hollow tube handles that feel light and tinny, these are solid moulded pieces. When you grab them, they have a reassuring weight and "cool to the touch" feel that denotes quality. They are built to withstand the thousands of pulls and tugs a kitchen sees over a lifetime.
Handle Clearance For Large Hands
I have large hands. Is there enough clearance?
This design features a streamlined, low-profile arch. While it looks sleek, the projection (distance from the door to the handle) is designed to be ergonomic. Most users find there is ample room to wrap their fingers around without their knuckles scraping against the cabinetry face, but if you have particularly large hands, we recommend testing one first or checking the projection spec (usually ~25-30mm) to ensure comfort.
Preventing Handles Catching On Clothes
Do the edges catch on clothes?
A common annoyance with square-edged handles is that they can snag pockets or belt loops as you walk past. The H2330 has a "soft square" or rounded profile. The edges are smoothed off specifically to prevent catching on clothing, making them a safer choice for high-traffic areas like kitchen islands or narrow hallways.
Cleaning Cabinet Handles Properly
How do I clean them without ruining the finish?
The biggest enemy of handle finishes is actually household cleaner. Sprays containing bleach, ammonia, or citrus acids can break down the lacquer over time. We strictly recommend wiping them down with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. If you spill food on them, wipe it off immediately. Treat the finish like the paint on your car, and it will last for years.
