When planning a new home decor or renovation, many people dread the job of selecting the right cabinet hardware. It is a very true fact, as many options available in the cabinet hardware industry confuse the buyer. Although it seems like a very tedious task, it is not possible to even pass it on to someone else… After all, it is your home! The endless options that include colors, shapes, materials and finishes make it difficult for a person to choose the piece that he is looking for. However, to avoid this, one way to narrow the field can be chosen fairly quickly, that is, to make a general decision on whether your cabinet hardware should be old-fashioned, traditional, or modern.
Once decided, this helps the hardware vendor cut dozens of styles out of the mix, thereby reducing choice and therefore confusion over which cabinet hardware to select. This part can be further narrowed by bifurcating the various finishes, eliminating the chrome and brushed finishes.
The building hardware industry is huge and there are many modern cabinet hardware designs today. Today it is not impossible to give your rooms the specific themes so sought after. Some of the most popular themes are described below.
Poker room design – Simply macho, is what poker room decor is often associated with. In addition to putting up mafia posters, humidifiers, and audio equipment, designer cabinet pulls, cabinet hinges, and cabinet locks can be used to make it look more surreal. The poker room collection includes a spade, heart, club and diamond cabinet knob (in five finishes) and a matching cabinet pull.
football themed room – If you are a soccer fan, surely there are many options to give your room the feeling of a soccer field. A football-shaped cabinet knob can be attached to drawer slides or cabinet shelves to make your bedroom the perfect sports room.
Bar cabinet design – All those who have a bar room in their homes can add an extra touch to the room by installing bar-themed cabinet latches and cabinet clips. There are cabinet pulls and cabinet knobs of the same shape. When choosing cabinet lighting, use LED cabinet lighting, halogen cabinet lighting, or the puck style of xenon lighting to add that modern touch to your home.
Design of old rooms – To give your room that quintessential antique look, use antique cabinet hardware. Use the rustic knobs and pulls to create the desired atmosphere. There are various cabinet legs that are also available in rustic designs and textures.
Choose the theme that best suits your space and mood. The cabinet hardware industry has been revolutionized and you are no longer restricted to plain and simple designed cabinet handles, knobs and hardware. In addition to the themes mentioned above, there are many other themes (animal themes, jungle theme, aquatic theme, ocean theme) that should be adopted before planning to decorate or redecorate a house.
