US Common Cabinet Handle Centres & Replacement Matrix Guide | Capramont & Co
Use this US guide to match existing cabinet handle holes by center-to-center size before replacing pulls. Capramont & Co shows inches first with millimeters retained, links to US Letter spec sheets, and gives routes for custom centers, project review and hardware schedules for US cabinetry teams.
US center-to-center workflow
Use this guide after you know whether the job is a direct replacement, a new custom cabinetry specification, or a mixed whole-home package. The key measurement is the distance between fixing holes, shown as inches first with millimeters retained for product accuracy.
Center-to-center means screw-hole spacing
Center-to-center is the distance from the middle of one fixing hole to the middle of the other. For replacement cabinet pulls, this controls whether the new pull can use the existing holes. Overall length controls visual scale, not the drilling match.
| Term used by US buyers | What to measure | Why it matters | Capramont next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| Center-to-center | Middle of one screw hole to middle of the second screw hole. | This determines whether existing drilled holes can be reused without exposed marks or misaligned fasteners. | Measure existing holes |
| Hole spacing | The same distance, often written in inches by US teams and millimeters on technical product data. | Cabinet shops, builders and millwork teams need this before drilling drawer fronts and door rails. | Check common routes |
| Overall length | The full visible length of the handle or pull. | Useful for scale on drawers, closets and appliance panels, but it does not confirm hole alignment. | Check product proof |
Decide whether you are matching holes or setting a new drilling pattern
Replacement pulls
Match the existing center-to-center size exactly. A near match can expose old holes or put tension into the fasteners.
New custom cabinetry
Choose the pull scale first, then align the center size with the drawer fronts, door rails, full-overlay panels or inset frame detail.
Whole-home package
Use a hardware schedule when kitchens, closets, laundry rooms, mudrooms, bathroom vanities and appliance panels need one controlled record.
Common cabinet pull center-size routes
Capramont product data is held in millimeters, but US project teams often start with inches. Use the inch values for quick screening and retain the millimeter value for the final product check.
| Center route | Product family | US cabinetry use | Specification caution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.3 in / 32 mm1.8 in / 46 mm2.3 in / 58 mm | C pulls / edge pulls | Edge-led drawer fronts, compact doors and discreet millwork details. | Check front thickness, edge detail and fixing position before treating this as a direct replacement. |
| 2.0 in / 50 mm3.4 in / 86 mm5.4 in / 138 mm | Cup pulls | Drawer-led kitchens, pantries and bathroom vanities where a cup pull format is preferred. | Cup pull centers are not normally interchangeable with standard bar-pull centers. |
| 3.6 in / 92 mm4.9 in / 124 mm6.1 in / 156 mm8.7 in / 220 mm11.2 in / 284 mm14.3 in / 364 mm | Standard cabinet pulls | Drawers, doors, pantry cabinetry, closet cabinetry and general custom cabinetry packages. | Confirm door rail, stile and drawer-front proportions before drilling finished fronts. |
| 23.8 in / 604 mm26.6 in / 675 mm | Long pulls / appliance panels | Tall units, refrigerator panels, freezer panels, large pantry doors and closet doors. | Check panel weight, grip clearance, fixing depth and appliance manufacturer constraints. |
| Non-standardUnknownOld holes | Custom center review | Existing cabinetry, remodels, custom millwork or layouts where the drilling pattern is already fixed. | Send the hole spacing for review |
Check the cabinet construction before approving the centers
A center size can be technically correct and still be wrong for the cabinet construction. Check the cabinet type, face detail, grip clearance and room use before the final drilling decision.
| US cabinet condition | What to check | Risk if missed | Recommended route |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inset cabinetry | Frame reveal, door swing, drawer clearance and projection. | A pull may align with holes but interfere with the frame or adjacent fronts. | Projection / clearance check |
| Face-frame cabinetry | Door rails, stiles, centerline and screw position behind the front. | Fasteners may land too close to a rail/stile edge or create visual imbalance. | Size & placement guide |
| Full-overlay cabinetry | Adjacent reveal, appliance clearance and grip depth. | Large pulls can crowd neighboring fronts or restrict appliance clearance. | Send Project Details |
| Appliance or refrigerator panel | Pull length, center position, panel weight and fixing depth. | A decorative pull may not suit a heavy integrated panel without review. | Start a Hardware Schedule |
| Closet, laundry room or mudroom | High-use doors, repeated grip points and finish approval. | Wrong scale or finish choice can be more noticeable in daily-use cabinetry. | Order finish sign-off sample |
Existing hole workflow
Measure from hole center to hole center before choosing the pull
Remove one existing pull and measure the cabinet front itself. Do not measure from the outside edge of the handle or use the total handle length as the replacement number.
Remove the existing hardware
Expose the drilled holes and check whether there are old marks, enlarged holes or backplate shadows.
Measure exact hole spacing
Record the center-to-center size. Use inches for quick notes and keep the millimeter size for product matching.
Confirm cabinet type
Note whether the front is inset, face-frame, full-overlay, slab, closet, appliance panel or refrigerator panel.
Review before drilling
If the center size is unusual, send photos, quantities and product interest before committing to a custom center route.
Use the center size with pull scale, projection and grip clearance
The hole spacing gets the pull fixed to the door or drawer. The projection and grip clearance decide whether it feels right in everyday use, especially on appliance panels, closets, laundry rooms and mudrooms.
| Planning route | Common center range | US use case | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small to medium pulls | 3.6–6.1 in / 92–156 mm centers | Doors, compact drawers, bathroom vanity fronts and pantry cabinetry. | Check hand clearance, rail/stile position and alignment across repeated fronts. |
| Longer drawer pulls | 8.7–14.3 in / 220–364 mm centers | Wide drawers, flat-front kitchens, closet cabinetry and larger custom millwork panels. | Check visual balance, projection and whether the pull over-scales smaller adjacent fronts. |
| Appliance / refrigerator panels | 23.8–26.6 in / 604–675 mm centers | Integrated refrigerator panels, freezer panels and tall appliance-front panels. | Review panel weight, screw engagement, appliance clearances and grip depth before ordering. |
| Cup pulls and edge pulls | 1.3–5.4 in / 32–138 mm centers | Drawer-led rooms, discreet edges and compact replacement paths. | Do not assume these centers can replace standard bar pulls without checking the product type. |

Center-to-center questions before drilling
What does center-to-center mean on a cabinet pull?
Center-to-center means the distance between the center of one screw hole and the center of the other. For replacement pulls, this is the measurement that decides whether the existing holes can be reused.
Can I use the overall pull length to replace existing cabinet hardware?
No. Overall length helps with visual scale, but replacement depends on the existing hole spacing. Measure the drilled holes first, then check overall length for proportion on the door or drawer front.
Do US cabinet pulls use inch or millimeter center sizes?
US project teams often discuss sizes in inches, but many premium hardware products are specified in millimeters. Use inches for quick planning and retain the millimeter size for final product matching.
What should I send for a custom center review?
Send the exact hole spacing, photos, quantity, cabinet type, product interest and any drawings or schedules. For appliance panels or whole-home cabinetry, include the room list and panel details.
Should appliance panels use the same pulls as cabinet drawers?
Not always. Appliance and refrigerator panels need extra review because panel weight, fixing depth, projection and grip clearance matter more than on a small drawer. Use the product page and project review route before confirming.
When should I use a hardware schedule?
Use a hardware schedule when more than one room, product family, finish or center size is involved. It helps designers, builders, cabinet shops and clients keep the pull specification controlled before ordering.
Need to confirm center-to-center before ordering?
Measure the existing hole spacing, identify the cabinet type and send the details for review if the route is not an exact standard match.
