Plan cabinet knobs and pulls in Niles with Brush & Bright. Confirm hole spacing, screw length, layout and finish implications before new hardware is installed. Call (224) 395-4544 · Email brushandbrightpaint@gmail.com
Choosing a cabinet pull by its overall length can lead to a surprise when the screw holes do not line up. For a replacement, the distance between those holes is a key measurement; for an undrilled front, the new position needs agreement before any hole is made. Brush & Bright installs cabinet knobs and pulls in Niles with those details reviewed across the full set of doors and drawers. Include unusually wide drawers, corners, and appliance clearances in the plan so the hardware feels consistent while allowing each front to open normally.
Sort the fronts before counting the hardware
Make a count of doors and drawers, then note which will receive knobs, pulls, or a different size. Wide drawers and paired doors may call for layout decisions that are easy to miss in a total quantity. Photograph the whole cabinet run, including corners where handles could meet adjacent fronts. Identify the finish and front material. A quick layout review lets you settle orientation and alignment before installation becomes a permanent change to the cabinetry.
Compare holes and screw requirements
For existing pulls, measure between the centers of the screw holes rather than measuring the outer ends of the handle. Provide the proposed product link and tell us whether the supplied screws suit a simple door or a thicker drawer-front assembly. A replacement can expose wear or unused holes even when it fits mechanically. Changing from a knob to a pull may require additional drilling and a decision about the original hole’s position.
Set a separate plan for exposed marks
Old holes and impressions belong in the estimate if you want them addressed. Their treatment depends on whether the surface is painted, stained, laminated, or otherwise finished. Filling a hole alone does not guarantee that the repair will blend with the surrounding surface. Hardware installation also does not include realigning a damaged door unless that task is listed. Confirm the chosen products, quantities, and material-sourcing arrangement before assuming the entire cabinet set is ready.

Cabinet Hardware Installation Questions
For replacing a two-screw pull, the center-to-center hole spacing is essential. The full dimensions are also useful for appearance and clearance.
It depends on the hardware and front thickness. A drawer front may have a different fixing depth, so the required length needs checking.
Suitable fronts can be assessed for new installation. The position and orientation should be approved before drilling.
Not necessarily. Its footprint may leave original holes or wear visible. Share close-up photos so any finish repair can be discussed.
