Give your kitchen a facelift with new hardware and storage tricks that really work! Hi there, Michael from Nottingham Kitchen Fitter here. We've been sorting out cabinets and drawers for families all over Nottingham since 2022, and I've seen firsthand how the right knobs, handles and organisers can make or break a kitchen's look and usefulness.
Most kitchens around here, from Victorian homes in The Park to new builds in West Bridgford, have one thing in common - they need better storage! That's where we come in. Our team picks hardware that works with your kitchen style and makes life easier. And trust me, after fitting over 800 kitchens in the area, we know what works in Nottingham homes.
"The drawer organisers and soft-close hinges have made such a difference in our kitchen - everything has a place now and the cabinets close so quietly!" - Deborah W., Arnold
Cabinet Hardware Options
Choosing new hardware is one of the cheapest ways to jazz up your kitchen without a full redo. We've got loads of options from modern to traditional that work with homes all over Nottingham.
Handles and Knobs That Look Great
The handles and knobs you pick can totally change how your kitchen looks. We've got:
- Modern bar pulls that look fab in newer homes in Beeston
- Traditional cup pulls perfect for period properties near Nottingham Castle
- Statement knobs that add character to simple doors
- Sleek integrated handles for a clean, modern look
I fitted some lovely brass handles in a Victorian home in The Park last month, and they transformed the kitchen from dated to charming without changing anything else!
Hinges That Just Work Better
Most people don't think much about hinges until they start to go wrong. We use quality hinges that:
- Open smoothly (no more sticking doors!)
- Close quietly with soft-close tech
- Adjust easily when things settle
- Last for years without sagging
We recently fixed up a kitchen in Ruddington where the old hinges were driving the family mad - doors hanging crooked and slamming shut. The new soft-close hinges we put in made it feel like a different kitchen!
Drawer Systems That Make Sense
Drawers get used tons every day, so they need to be tuff. Our drawer runners:
- Slide out fully so you can see everything inside
- Handle heavy pots and pans without buckling
- Close quietly and gently (no more slamming!)
- Won't break down after a few months of use
"We can't believe the difference the new drawer runners have made - our kitchen is so much quieter now the drawers don't slam!" - The Fentons, West Bridgford

The inside of your cabinets can work so much harder with the right kit. We've installed these game-changers in homes across Nottinghamshire:

Nothing worse than a messy cutlery drawer! Our organizers:

- Are made from quality materials that last
We fitted a custom spice drawer system for a family in Carlton who love cooking - they say it's changed how they use their kitchen completely!
Pull-out Systems That Reach Everything
Ever lost stuff at the back of a deep cabinet? Pull-outs fix that:
- Bring everything at the back within easy reach
- Make use of narrow spaces beside ovens or fridges
- Hold heavy items like pots and pans
- Use every inch of available space
"The pull-out larder unit Michael fitted is brilliant - I can see all my baking stuff at once now!" - Maisie, Mansfield

Corner cabinets can be proper awkward spaces. Our solutions:
- Turn dead corners into useful storage
- Let you access everything easily

- Make use of every bit of space
Last week I fitted a clever corner pull-out in a kitchen near Nottingham Market Square. The homeowners had been unable to use that corner properly for years!

Tall cabinets can swallow stuff whole if not organized right. Our systems:
- Sort items by height and type
- Make everything easy to reach

Soft-close is one of our most requested upgrades in Nottingham, especially from families with young kids or people living in terraced houses where noise travels!

- Tap the door or drawer to open
- Clean, modern look with no hardware showing

Lighting That Makes A Difference
Good lighting transforms how you use your kitchen:
- Under-cabinet LED strips that light work areas

- Inside-cabinet lights that come on when doors open
- Mood lighting for evening entertaining
We recently added under-cabinet lighting for a customer in Beeston who works from home at her kitchen table - she says it's made her workspace much more pleasant!

Real Stories: Cabinet Transformation In Beeston
The Rogers family in Beeston had a perfectly fine kitchen - but the storage was a nightmare. Sarah Rogers told us:
"Everything was piled on top of each other in the cabinets, the corner unit was basically a black hole where things disappeared, and the drawers were a jumbled mess."
We worked with the family to:
- Add pull-out organisers to deep cabinets
- Install a clever corner solution
- Fit drawer organizers throughout
- Add soft-close to all doors and drawers
- Update the handles to a more comfy design
The result? Sarah says: "It's like having a new kitchen! We can find everything, nothing gets lost at the back of cabinets, and the soft-close is brilliant with a toddler in the house."
Common Questions About Cabinet Hardware
What kitchen cabinet hardware lasts the longest?
Solid brass and stainless steel hardware generally lasts longest. The cheaper zinc alloy or plastic options might save money now but often need replacing within a few years. We use brands with proper guarantees - some of our hardware options come with lifetime warranties!
How much does kitchen cabinet hardware cost to replace?
It varies hugely depending on what you choose. Basic knobs might be £2-3 each, while premium handles can be £20+ each. For a typical Nottingham kitchen with 20-30 doors and drawers, you're looking at £100-500 for the hardware, plus fitting costs. We can work with most budgets to find options that work for you.
Can I install kitchen cabinet hardware myself?
You can, but it's trickier than it looks to get everything lined up perfectly! The most common DIY mistakes we fix are:
- Wonky handle alignment
- Improperly installed soft-close hinges
- Drawer runners that don't slide smoothly
- Doors that don't close properly
If you're handy, we can give you tips. If not, our fitting service is fast and affordable.
What's the difference between kitchen cabinet knobs and pulls?
Knobs are single-point fixtures you grip with fingertips, while pulls (handles) require a whole-hand grip. Knobs are often cheaper and easier to install but can be less comfy for frequent use. Pulls tend to be more ergonomic for regularly used drawers. Many Nottingham kitchens we fit use a mix of both - knobs for upper cabinets and pulls for lower drawers.
What kitchen cabinet accessories improve functionality the most?
Based on feedback from our Nottingham customers, the top three game-changers are:
- Pull-out corner solutions (no more lost items)
- Soft-close drawer runners (quiet and longer-lasting)
- Custom drawer organizers (everything has a place)
The right choice depends on your specific pain points though!
How do I choose kitchen cabinet handles that match my style?
Think about:
- Your kitchen's overall style (modern, traditional, country, etc.)
- The finish of your appliances (stainless, black, white)
- What feels comfortable in your hand
- How visible you want the hardware to be
We can bring sample boards to your home to help you decide, or you can visit our showroom to try different options.
