FAQs
Are screws included with the handles?
Product information typically states if screws are included. For this item, screws are not explicitly mentioned as included and may need to be purchased separately to suit your specific cabinet thickness.
What material are these handles made from?
The handles are made from solid brass with a matt black finish.
How do I clean the matt black finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent damage to the finish. Always dry thoroughly.
Can I buy matching knobs for these handles?
Yes, the product description mentions matching knob styles (T-bar and rounded) are available in the same design and finish.
What are the exact dimensions for the 128mm handle?
The 128mm handle has 128mm hole centers, a total length of 166mm, a width of 15mm, and a projection of 40mm.
Are these handles suitable for outdoor use?
While solid brass is durable, the matt black finish may not be rated for prolonged outdoor exposure. It is best suited for indoor cabinetry.
How many handles are in one pack?
These handles are sold individually.
Troubleshooting
Handle is loose after installation
Ensure the screws are tightened securely. If screws are too short for the cabinet thickness, use longer screws. If screws are stripped, consider using wood filler or a screw anchor.
Matt black finish scratches easily
Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. For minor scratches, check if a specific matt black touch-up paint is available from the manufacturer. Handle with care during installation.
Hole spacing does not match existing holes
You may need to drill new holes or use a filler to cover old holes if the spacing is significantly different. Ensure measurements are double-checked before purchase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation typically involves removing the old handle and using the existing screw holes. For the 128mm handle, ensure your cabinet or drawer front has pre-drilled holes spaced 128mm apart (center to center). Screws are usually required and may need to be purchased separately depending on cabinet thickness.
Compatibility:
These handles are designed for standard cabinet and drawer fronts. Ensure the hole spacing (128mm for the featured handle) matches your furniture. The knob options use single-hole fixing, suitable for most standard cabinet doors and drawer fronts.
Care:
To maintain the matt black finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by thorough drying with a clean, soft cloth.
