Question 1

What screw size do Top Knobs cabinet pulls use?

Accepted Answer

Most Top Knobs pulls include 8-32 mounting screws. Standard lengths are 1 inch and 1-1/2 inch — choose based on your drawer or door thickness. Longer screws are available for thicker panels. Top Knobs includes appropriate screws with each piece.

Question 2

How do I measure center-to-center spacing for Top Knobs pulls?

Accepted Answer

Measure from the center of one screw hole to the center of the other. Common spacings are 3 inch, 3-3/4 inch, 5 inch, 6-5/16 inch, and 12 inch for appliance pulls. Use a drilling template for precise, repeatable placement across all your cabinets.

Question 3

How do I template for Top Knobs cabinet hardware?

Accepted Answer

Use a hardware drilling template (available at hardware stores) or make one from cardboard. Mark the screw hole positions, tape the template to each door or drawer in the same position, and drill through the marks. This ensures consistent placement.

Question 4

How do I install Top Knobs on Shaker-style cabinet doors?

Accepted Answer

For Shaker doors, center the knob or pull on the stile (vertical frame piece) — not on the panel. Standard placement is 2-1/2 to 3 inches from the corner. Use a consistent template across all doors for uniform appearance.

Question 5

Do Top Knobs finishes match across different collections?
