Why Choose Professional Installation?

Drilling holes in finished cabinet doors leaves no room for error. One slip can ruin a door. Our professionals use precise jigs and templates to ensure perfect placement and uniformity across your entire kitchen or bath.

We also have the tools to adjust hinges and slides correctly, preventing premature wear and ensuring that gaps are even and doors hang straight.

Soft Close Drawer Slide

Blind Corner Solutions

Stop losing items in dark corners. We install advanced swing-out shelves and "magic corners" that bring stored items out to you, making even the hardest-to-reach spaces fully usable.

Lift Systems

For modern overhead cabinets, we install hydraulic lift-up hinge systems that hold doors open at any angle and close softly. These are perfect for appliance garages and high storage areas.

Decorative Hinges

For traditional inset cabinetry or furniture pieces, exposed barrel hinges add specific period charm. We offer a variety of finial designs and finishes to match your hardware suite.

Our Process

Our Hardware Process

Selection and Consultation

We bring samples to your home so you can see how the finish looks against your cabinets and lighting. We advise on size and scale to ensure the hardware is proportional to your doors and drawers.

Layout Approval

Before drilling, we review the placement with you. Whether you prefer knobs centered or offset, we mark the locations (using tape) for your final approval to ensure it matches your preference.

Precision Installation

Using specialized drill jigs, we bore clean, chip-free holes and mount the hardware. We ensure screws are tightened securely but not over-torqued to prevent stripping or damage.

Adjustment and Test

We test every pull and hinge. We adjust door gaps and drawer fronts as needed to ensure that the new hardware doesn't interfere with operation and that everything looks symmetrical.

Hardware FAQs

Should I use knobs or pulls?
There are no hard rules, but a common approach is to use knobs for cabinet doors and pulls for drawers. However, using pulls everywhere is a popular modern trend. We can help you decide what looks best for your style.
Can you mix metal finishes in a kitchen?
Yes, mixing metals is a very stylish look when done correctly. For example, matte black hardware often pairs beautifully with brass lighting fixtures or stainless steel appliances.
Can I supply my own hardware?
Yes, we are happy to install hardware you have purchased elsewhere. However, we recommend consulting with us first to ensure the screws are the correct length for your door thickness and that the quality is sufficient.
Are extra-long pulls sturdy?
Yes, quality appliance pulls and long drawer pulls are designed to handle the weight of heavy drawers and pantries. Proper installation is key, usually requiring more robust screws than standard knobs.
Do you replace old hinges?
Yes. Upgrading to concealed soft-close Euro hinges is a popular request. Note that this sometimes requires drilling new holes in the doors or modification to the frame, which we can handle.
