In the kitchen shown here the typical swing doors on the upper and lower cabinets have simple round knobs while most of the drawers have bin pulls.
Can you use bin pulls on cabinet doors.
Notice how in this kitchen by shalford interiors the pairs of knobs on the cabinet doors line up nicely with the bin pulls below.
For this type of mix to work you need to use opposites.
Bin pulls tend to look best installed centered and running horizontally and they also function best on drawers and pullouts.
Admittedly having to turn a knob or unhook a latch is not the most practical hardware option on cabinets that get a lot of use.
Paired with these square bin pulls on drawers we love the look of a traditional cabinet latch on cabinet doors like the ones pictured here.
Besides people do not buy houses based on cabinet knobs.
On closer inspection this turns out to be a swing down door that most likely hides a dishwasher.
I have been known to install pulls horizontal on base cabinet doors just to maintain that line.
The other option is to use contrasting finishes.
But you can see in this view that apparently one drawer has a handle instead of a bin pull.
Never use two warm metals or two cool metals together because it will look mismatched.
Use a warm metal gold brass copper with a cool metal chrome nickel pewter.
Of course we often see pulls being used on cabinet doors as well so it really is a personal preference.
