FAQs
Does this backplate come in different sizes?
This specific model is a 36mm round backplate, though Brass Bee offers a variety of hardware sizes and shapes in their catalog.
Can this be used on furniture other than kitchen cabinets?
Yes, it is perfectly suitable for bathroom vanities, bedside tables, or dresser drawers to provide an updated, cohesive look.
Do I need special tools to install this?
No, you only need a screwdriver that matches the head of your existing cabinet knob hardware.
Will the gold finish fade over time?
The finish is designed for durability, but regular cleaning with non-abrasive products is recommended to maintain its luster.
Is the backplate compatible with non-Brass Bee hardware?
It is designed to complement Brass Bee hardware, but it can be used with any knob that fits the center hole diameter of the backplate.
Troubleshooting
Backplate spinning or shifting during use
Tighten the knob connection firmly to create sufficient friction against the cabinet surface.
Backplate overlaps with cabinet frame edge
Verify the door style and frame width before purchase; the 36mm diameter requires a flat surface to sit perfectly flush.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Adds a luxurious and modern aesthetic to cabinets
- Protects cabinet door surfaces from daily contact wear
- Easy to install as a decorative spacer behind existing hardware
- High-quality gold finish resists tarnishing
- Tactile knurled pattern provides a superior grip and visual texture
Cons
- The 36mm round profile may be too large for very narrow cabinet frames
- Requires matching hardware for aesthetic consistency
- Gold finish may show fingerprints more easily than matte alternatives
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, remove your existing knob, position the 36mm round backplate over the mounting hole, and reattach your knob using the original or slightly longer screw if necessary. Ensure the backplate is centered during the final tightening to achieve a flush fit. For compatibility, verify that your cabinetry has enough flat surface area for a 36mm circle to sit without overlapping the door edge or decorative beading. To clean, wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, which can dull the gold finish over time.
