    Kitchen Hardware Replacement in London

    New handles and knobs to complete your kitchen transformation. We source and fit a wide range of hardware styles to complement your newly resprayed cabinets.

    Complete Your Kitchen Transformation

    New hardware is the finishing touch that makes a resprayed kitchen feel truly brand new. Updated handles and knobs can completely change the style and feel of your kitchen — from traditional to contemporary, or anything in between.

    We source and fit a wide range of kitchen handles and knobs — from sleek bar handles and integrated grips for a modern look, to classic cup pulls and knobs for a more traditional aesthetic.

    Hardware replacement is most popular as an add-on to our full kitchen respray service. Combining both services delivers maximum impact — a completely new look for your kitchen without the cost of replacement.

    Why New Handles Change a Kitchen

    Handles are the part of a kitchen you physically touch dozens of times a day, and they are also the detail that most reliably dates it. Chrome D-bars, worn brass knobs and scratched plastic pulls make an otherwise sound kitchen read as tired. Swapping them is the cheapest change with the most visible return, and alongside a respray it is what makes a kitchen genuinely look new rather than merely repainted.

    Because handles read as jewellery against the cabinet colour, the pairing matters. Matte black against a deep green, aged brass against off-white, or brushed steel against navy each produce a completely different character from the same cabinetry. We help you choose a combination that suits the age and style of the property rather than defaulting to whatever is in fashion this season.

    Practicality counts too. Cup pulls look beautiful on drawers but are awkward on tall larder doors. Long bar handles are easy to grab with wet or full hands and are the sensible choice for heavy pan drawers. Knobs suit smaller doors and traditional shaker frames. We steer you towards hardware that works for how you actually use the room.

    Handle Styles We Fit

    Bar handles and T-bars give a clean, contemporary line and are available in brushed steel, matte black, antique brass and polished nickel. They suit slab and flat-panel doors particularly well, and longer lengths add horizontal emphasis that makes a run of units feel wider.

    Cup pulls and knobs are the traditional pairing for shaker and in-frame kitchens, and are the standard choice in London period properties. Cup pulls on drawers with matching knobs on doors is a combination that has looked right for over a century and shows no sign of dating.

    Wooden bar handles, leather tab pulls and edge-pull profiles offer softer, more tactile alternatives for anyone wanting a Scandinavian or utility feel. Integrated and recessed options give a completely handle-free look where the design calls for uninterrupted door faces.

    Sourcing, Fitting and Making Good

    We source hardware to your style and budget, and we can work with handles you have already bought. Where the new hardware uses the same fixing centres as the old, the swap is straightforward. Where it does not, holes need to be filled, prepared and refinished so there is no trace of the previous fixings — which is precisely why handle changes work best combined with a respray, when filling and recoating happens anyway.

    Fitting accuracy is what separates a professional job from a DIY one. Handles are set out with a jig so that every one sits at exactly the same height and inset across the whole kitchen. Inconsistent alignment is instantly noticeable across a long run of drawers even when each individual handle is only a millimetre or two out.

    We drill with backing support to prevent breakout on the reverse face, use fixings sized correctly to the door thickness, and check every handle is square and firm before we leave. On drawers we confirm nothing fouls the runners and that the fronts still close cleanly.

    Combining Handle Replacement With a Respray

    Handle replacement is most popular as an add-on to a full kitchen respray or cabinet door spraying. Sequencing them together saves money and produces a better result: the doors are already off, any redundant holes are filled at the preparation stage, and the new hardware is fitted into freshly cured coating rather than being wrestled around an existing finish.

    It also removes the risk of damage. Fitting handles to already-finished doors always carries some chance of chipping around the drill point; doing it as part of the respray schedule means any mark is dealt with before the topcoats go on.

    If your kitchen has already been sprayed, we can still handle a standalone hardware change, including filling and touching in old fixing holes to match the existing colour. All work is carried out by City & Guilds qualified fitters and finished to the same standard as our respray projects.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can you fit handles I have already bought?

    Yes. We are happy to fit customer-supplied hardware, or we can source handles to match your style and budget.

    What happens to the old handle holes?

    Where new hardware uses different fixing centres, the old holes are filled, prepared and refinished so there is no visible trace. This is why handle changes are best combined with a respray.

    Which handle style suits a shaker kitchen?

    Cup pulls on drawers with matching knobs on doors is the traditional and most reliable pairing for shaker and in-frame kitchens, particularly in London period properties.

    Can handles be replaced without respraying the kitchen?

    Yes. We carry out standalone handle replacement, including filling and colour-matched touching in of redundant fixing holes.

    How long does handle replacement take?

    A straightforward like-for-like swap is usually completed in a day. If holes need filling and refinishing, we schedule it alongside respray work.
