Quick and Easy Kitchen Updates

Quick and Easy Kitchen Updates

The kitchen is the heart of the home. No longer is it a purely functional space only required for cooking, it is now a place to entertain, a hot desk for table workers, a spot to bond with family and even a creative area for budding little chefs.

We spend so much time in the kitchen and can quickly tire of looking at the same old drab cupboards, but the good news is you can give your kitchen a refresh with just a few easy updates. A few small changes can make a massive impact, giving your kitchen a fresh new look.

Transformations can be quick and simple, meaning you don’t have to start from scratch – we're talking low fuss and minimal mess for maximum impact!

Update your Cabinet & Electrical Hardware

Old fashioned and dated cupboard handles can make kitchens look tired. A simple hardware update can make a huge difference, transforming your kitchen from a dated looking space into a sleek and on-trend room.

Choose from cabinet pulls and door knobs, perfect for opening units, to drawer pulls and elongated handles ideal for cutlery and pan drawers. Match with electrical sockets and switches in the same finish for a sleek look that’s guaranteed to lift your kitchen space.

The Traditional Kitchen Update The Traditional Kitchen Update

Shaker style doors are arguably the most popular choice for country-style properties, however, paired with the wrong accessories, your kitchen will soon look like your grandma’s! For a quick and easy update simply switch over your cabinet hardware to styles that complement shaker doors.

We suggest a Traditional Cabinet Drawer Pull for your drawers and pan drawers in an Antique Brass finish, with matching Durham Cabinet Pull Handles for your cupboards. This on-trend finish looks exquisite on any coloured unit, but we particularly love the combination with dark navy or green cupboards.

A Modern Kitchen Update A Modern Kitchen Update

For a modern kitchen in need of an update, perhaps where white is the base colour, we suggest a Satin Rose Gold Finish. Elegant, yet with a contemporary edge this shade is guaranteed to pop and bring visual delight back into your kitchen. Our Wide Metro Cabinet Handle pairs perfectly with the contemporary shape of our Deco Cabinet Drawer Pulls for a contemporary touch.

For a sleek and on-trend finish choose internal door hardware and electrical sockets and switches in the same finish as your cabinet hardware.

This will ensure a smart finish which will really catch the eye. We do find that if electrical switches and sockets don’t match, the finish isn't quite so crisp and clean.

Our Top Tips
  • When replacing your cabinet hardware, it’s essential to measure the distance between the two existing screw holes and make sure this measurement is the same for your new handles.
  • Carefully remove the old handles by unscrewing the screws.
  • Position your new handles over the holes and simply screw back into place, tightening with a screwdriver to ensure the handles are firmly secured.
