Barney12 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I'm bother I'm procrastinating again....... So I've just designed a kitchen on DIY-Kitchens. Its a shaker style but with a modern presentation. The decision is to go with bar style handles but you have to select your own length for cabinet doors and drawers. I asked them to say whats the "standard" and they said "its personal choice but keep the handle 100mm from the ends of the drawers"............no don't give me such tough decisions! So far I've selected: 160mm for doors and 224 for drawers: All the units are "hi-line" and there are only two drawer units: a 600mm 4 drawer unit: and a 900mm pan drawer: Should the bar handles perhaps be longer on the pan drawers? Any other views? Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterW Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Used 650mm bars on the 900 pan drawer and they look fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez1978 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Personally I'd go 160mm for anything vertical and a third of the width ( or as near as you can get) for the width. Long bar handles on shaker style doors can look to over powering, different if it was on a modern slab style door/drawer front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney12 Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 Thanks for the input guys. I've gone for 160mm on the doors. 224mm on the 600mm drawers and 354mm on the 900 drawers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
