When placing knobs on the cabinets, you certainly want to think about function. The cabinet knob placement should be as comfortable to reach as possible, allowing for the best leverage when opening the doors. For this reason, the knob should be close to the hinge. The best placement for cabinet knobs, according to many carpenters, seems to be between 2.5 and 3 inches up from the lower corner of the cabinet door on the opposite side of hinge side of the door. This is for kitchen wall cabinets. For kitchen base cabinets, the cabinet knobs should be between 2.5 and 3 inches down from the upper corner opposite from the hinge side of the door. These placements allow your hand to comfortably grab the doors without having to stretch your arm or overexert yourself.

The kitchen is a focal point of a home. Not only do people cook their meals in this part of the house, but guests and family members are constantly in and out, cooking, doing homework, or just enjoying a cup of coffee with a friend. So, if your kitchen is starting to look like it needs a makeover, kitchen cabinets are the easiest focal point to change that will make the kitchen look like a brand new room. There are many ways to change your cabinets: you could remodel completely, have them professionally redone, or you can simply refinish your cabinets yourself. This simple project requires just a few tools including: a screwdriver, a marker, paint, a power sander, sandpaper, and a paintbrush. To start, you will have to consider the look you are aiming for. What style will fit best with the rest of your home? What color palette are you looking for? What atmosphere are you trying to portray? Once you have figured this out, you are ready to start. As you take your cabinets down, be sure to mark which ones go where so you know where to put them back up. After you have numbered and taken the cabinets and drawers down, you need to sand them down. The goal is not to get all the paint off, but instead to make sure the existing paint is not shiny or smooth. This will ensure that the new paint will stick and make the cabinets look great. The next step is painting. To make your job look professional, you should use a primer for best results. Wait for the primer to completely dry before painting with your chosen color. Two coats of paint always look best to avoid visible brush strokes or streaks. Don’t forget to paint and sand the areas around the cabinets to make everything look uniform as well! Finally, after sanding and painting your new cabinets, you can add extra details to make your cabinets look professional. For example, knobs and handles are great little details that can be inexpensively added. Sanding off some of the paint creates an antique look. Explore your local hardware store for other ideas as well. In all, no matter what you add, in the end your refinished kitchen cabinets will look fantastic and expensive.
