One knob or two?

Recommended Posts

Looks are important, but I think it really depends on the size of the drawer and the weight of the objects in said drawer.

One knob is easier to manage with one hand and not pull out at an angle, but if the drawer will have any substance, you need either a two point knob or a handle for more stablity.

From the pictures you supplied, I think, 1-knob looks good and should function quite well. Judging from the size of the drawers. Also, it would depend on the type drawer guides you have in the cabinet. If, they are the roller type, 1-knob will work.

Neither... for drawers that size you really need a pull not a knob..



I'd listen to him. He's a professional, and if he says you need a pull, you need a pull.

Well, I do work at a custom cabinet shop as a designer.. I'd recommend using a pull that matches the knobs, it would look better and give you a better grip to open the drawers (especially after they're filled)... and if you don't already have them take out the drawer glides and install the Blum full extension models....

Not only that; my guess is that even if two knobs were put on there, people would still use one knob side. Your thoughts? I think pull, also.
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

You're right of course.. most people are right handed and that's the side they'd grab, especially if they had something in their hands.

Course this is a good point...

But once you have yanked the one you kept pulling on out...you would have a back up one :D

I still say use a handle, centered...;)

i was just thinking what a whuffo who logged onto this forum to see some big bad extreme skydiving discussions would think when they see us discussing the best type of handle for a drawerB|B|

[i think one handle, centered by the way ;)]

Thanks for all the replies :)
I have put off installing knobs to thoses drawers untill tomorrow when I will go and look for handles that match my knob (;):P)....If I can fine some that match and are not crazy expensive...then handles it is.(but will use the knobs centered if too expensive)

Btw.....Is a "pull" the same as a handle??
