If you take a look around your house, you will find cabinet handles are everywhere. You have handles on kitchen cabinets, dressers, entertainment center doors, and on all the drawers. These cabinet handles do wear out with time; they can loosen or even break off. Broken cabinet handles can make house cleaning and daily house function frustrating.

It is possible to tighten loose handles, but if the cabinet handles have been scratched or stained, it will be better to just replace them instead of trying to repair them. Replacement will not only be cheaper, but will give you the opportunity to try something new.

Cabinet handles are made of a wide variety of materials. Since handles are required everywhere in houses and offices, different materials and styles have emerged to fit with the decor. Some of the common materials used for making cabinet handles are:

• Brass
• Nickel
• Vinyl
• Stainless steel
• Plastic
• Pine

The material and style of these handles depends on the place where these are going to be fitted. A stainless steel cabinet handle will look great on a dark dresser, whereas a chrome-colored handle will look amazing on a white colored dresser. There are a ton of options available to fit any style.

There are many different uses for cabinet handles. These are required in kitchen cabinets and drawers, pantries, dressers, and many other small storage areas in your home. One such example is the entertainment center or the music collection drawer. Your kitchen is also full of such small kitchen cabinets and drawers, all of which require cabinet handles.

In addition to the standard uses for cabinet handles in various pieces of furniture, these can be used for decorative purposes also. You can attach these handles to a board and then that board can be mounted to the wall. In this way, the cabinet handle can be used for hanging pictures, hats, and various other things in the house.

You can also think of other creative uses of the cabinet handles. Try to mix and match different colors and styles in your kitchen and see how they look.
