FAQs
Are these handles sold as a set?
No, the T-Bar Knob and Triangle Handle are sold individually. You will need to select the required type and quantity from the dropdown menu.
What material are the handles made from?
The handles and knobs are made from solid zinc with a polished chrome finish.
What are the dimensions of the T-Bar Knob?
The T-Bar Knob has a 1-hole fixing (45mm distance between screw holes), a length of 8mm, and a projection of 28mm.
What are the dimensions of the Triangle Handle?
The Triangle Handle has a 160mm length, 8mm width, and 28mm projection. The distance between screw holes is not explicitly stated for the 160mm version but is implied to be a common standard.
Can I use these handles on kitchen cabinets?
Yes, these handles are suitable for updating kitchen cabinets, cupboards, drawers, and doors.
How do I install the handle if my drawer already has holes?
If your drawer already has holes, unscrew the existing handle and attach the new one using the existing holes, provided the hole centres match.
What is the best way to clean the polished chrome finish?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Handle wobbles after installation
Ensure screws are fully tightened. If using existing holes, check if they are worn or slightly oversized; consider using slightly larger screws or wood filler for a secure fit.
Screws are too short/long
The supplied M4 x 25mm screws are standard. If your door/drawer material is exceptionally thick or thin, you may need to source alternative M4 screws of appropriate length.
Polished chrome finish shows smudges easily
Regularly wipe down with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints and maintain shine. A diluted mild soap solution can be used for more stubborn marks, followed by drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Each handle is supplied with two M4 x 25mm fixing screws.
- Existing Holes: If your door or drawer already has a handle or knob, unscrew the old one. Measure the distance between the screw holes (hole centres). Select a new handle with the same hole centres to use the existing holes.
- No Holes: If no holes are present, you will need to drill new holes to match the chosen handle's hole centres.
- Installation: Insert the screws from the back of the door/drawer through the holes. Align the handle with the screws and tighten securely using a screwdriver.
Compatibility:
- Hole Centres: Ensure the distance between screw holes on your furniture matches the handle's specifications (45mm for the knob, 160mm for the handle).
- Material: Suitable for wood, MDF, and composite doors and drawers.
Care:
- Clean the handles with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the polished chrome finish.
- Dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth.
