Capramont Cabinet Hardware Specification System
Specify cabinet handles, knobs, T-bars, cup pulls, C pulls and appliance-scale hardware through four connected decisions: product and design; dimensional fit; integrated appliance requirements; and materials, finishes and project application. Capramont & Co manufactures made-to-order cabinet hardware in England, with standard sizes, eligible custom fixing centres, technical drawings, finish approval and project review before production.
One connected specification route
Move from design intent to product geometry, appliance conditions, material selection and project review without separating the aesthetic decision from the engineering requirement.
14 Coordinated Collections · 39 Core Hardware Forms · 171 Standard Dimensional Options · 1,884 Standard Configurations Across Heritage Hardware & Performance Metals
01 · Specification Method
Cabinet hardware should not be selected as finish alone. Product form, geometry, appliance condition and material route interact. Capramont uses four specification routes so a project can move from design intent to a product, drawing, sample or review without losing the dimensional logic.
Choose the hardware form, visual scale, collection language and role within the cabinetry. Coordinate cabinet handles, knobs, T-bars, cup pulls, C pulls and longer pulls across kitchens, pantries, wardrobes, dressing rooms, vanities, bars and fitted furniture.
Resolve centre-to-centre, overall length, projection, grip, front thickness, fixing method and rear access as separate conditions. Where existing drilling or bespoke joinery dictates a non-standard fixing position, use custom-centre review rather than assuming a standard size can be altered.
Integrated refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, appliance banks and full-height joinery need more than a longer decorative pull. Confirm the pull family, C-C, overall length, projection, panel thickness, fixing route, adjacent clearances and vertical datum before drilling or release.
Choose material and finish in the context of the project. Heritage provides the principal architectural-finish route. Performance Metals adds project-led material routes including 316L stainless steel, naval brass, nickel-coated naval brass and Grade 5 titanium where offered.
02 · Route Selection
The fastest specification route depends on what is already known. New cabinetry usually begins with product and scale. Replacement work may begin with drilling centres. Appliance and specialist material projects often begin with project conditions and review.
Use cabinetry role, collection language, architectural style, visual scale and whole-project coordination.
Open Hardware Finder →Use exact centre-to-centre, overall coverage, projection, front thickness, fixing and rear access.
Open Centres Matrix →Review existing holes, product geometry, end conditions, post positions and machining feasibility.
Review Custom Centres →Check panel construction, leverage, fixing route, projection, clearances, C-C and opening geometry.
Open Appliance Guide →Review environment, handling, cleaning, corrosion exposure, surface behaviour and design intent together.
Explore Performance Metals →Send the project route into Capramont with the information already available. Drawings and schedules can follow against the project record.

Engineering profiles use metric as the canonical standard-product geometry. Where a US display value is shown elsewhere, the fractional-inch value is a nominal readability aid and must not be converted back into a drilling or manufacturing instruction.
04 · Dimensional Control
A technically correct hardware choice depends on more than one dimension. Keep the drilling datum, external scale, hand clearance and fixing condition separate so one convenient number is not incorrectly used for another purpose.
For two-point hardware, centre-to-centre is the distance between fixing holes. Do not use the overall handle length as the drilling dimension.
Projection measures how far hardware stands proud. Grip clearance is the usable hand space behind, under or within the hardware.
Replacement work begins with the actual drilling pattern. If it does not match a standard option, use custom-centre review before redrilling.
Review panel construction, fixing requirement, unusual thickness, adjacent clearances and opening geometry before release.
An unresolved project condition is not converted into an assumed engineering limit. Use project review before manufacture.
06 · Proof Layer
Product, dimensional, material and appliance decisions are supported by the same evidence layer: manufacture in England, controlled product data, technical sheets, physical finish approval, project review and Hardware Schedule control.
Current form, standard dimensions, centres, projection, section and fixing information where published.
Non-standard fixing positions, existing drilling and project-specific dimensional requirements are reviewed before manufacture.
Physical approval of colour, tone, patina direction and surface character before the made-to-order release.
Drawings, elevations, appliance panels, centre questions and unresolved fitting conditions move into a review route.
Product, size, centres, finish or material, quantity, room, drawing reference and approval status are held in one project record.
07 · Project Continuity
The system is designed to continue into real products, technical evidence and project control. A clear selection can move directly to a product. An unresolved condition moves to review rather than being disguised as certainty.
Knob, T-bar, cabinet pull, cup pull, C pull or appliance-scale pull.
Overall size, C-C, projection, grip, front thickness and fixing conditions.
Choose a supported Heritage or Performance Metals route for the product and project.
Existing holes, custom centres, appliance panels and uncertain conditions move to review.
Transfer products, sizes, centres, finishes, quantities and approvals into the project record.
08 · Common Questions
These answers define the public specification boundary. Product pages, technical sheets and project review remain the source for the selected product and final installation condition.
