Cabinet Knobs in Every Finish That Matters

One hole, one screw, instant update: cabinet knobs are the simplest hardware change in the house. This collection holds over 200 knobs from £2.99 — knurled, square, round, cup and drop-ring styles in matt black, antique brass, matt gold, polished chrome, antique copper and cream — most with matching handles elsewhere in the store so whole rooms stay consistent.

The Shapes

The Calla square knob gives crisp geometry to slab and shaker doors. The Vesta round knob is the quiet classic. Knurled designs — Amelia and the lined Sienna — add texture and grip and have become the signature look of modern kitchen wall units. The Arro cup handle bridges knob and pull for drawer fronts, and Lancer drop-ring pulls bring a vintage note to furniture and period kitchens.

Where Knobs Earn Their Keep

Wall units are knob territory: doors are light, reach is high, and a handle would protrude awkwardly at eye level. Bedroom furniture, bathroom vanities and alcove cupboards all suit knobs for the same reason. For the heavy stuff — pan drawers, larder doors, pull-outs — pair your knobs with matching handles from the kitchen handles collection; most of our ranges (Amelia, Aurelia, Sienna, Arro) exist in both formats precisely so you can split duties without splitting finishes.

Browsing by Room or Finish

Kitchen-specific knobs, including sizes and placement guidance, live in kitchen knobs. Gold tones are curated in gold drawer knobs. Period and farmhouse looks are gathered in vintage handles, which mixes knobs and traditional pulls. Square and round shapes have their own edits at square knobs and round knobs.

Fitting Notes

Knobs fit through a single hole with a machine screw from the rear — every knob here includes its fixing. Standard placement is the corner of the door opposite the hinge (roughly 50mm in), and centred on drawer fronts. If you are replacing knobs like-for-like there is no drilling at all; going from handles to knobs leaves a hole to fill, so check our backplated options first.

Delivery

Free UK delivery and fast dispatch as standard. Knobs are the cheapest way to trial a finish before committing to a full kitchen's hardware — order one in each metal you are considering and hold them against the doors in daylight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do knobs fit with just one screw hole?

Yes - knobs fix through a single hole with one machine screw from the back of the door or drawer, which makes them the easiest hardware to fit and a simple one-hole swap when replacing existing knobs.

Where do knobs work better than handles?

Knobs suit wall units, small cupboard doors, bedroom furniture and anywhere a handle would look oversized. Heavy pull-out drawers and larder doors are better served by handles, which give a fuller grip - many kitchens mix knobs up top with handles below.

What knob shapes do you stock?

Round, square, knurled, cup-style and drop-ring designs across ranges like Calla, Vesta, Amelia, Sienna and Arro - each in multiple finishes including matt black, antique brass, matt gold, chrome and cream, with matching handles available in most ranges.

Can I replace handles with knobs?

Going from a two-hole handle to a one-hole knob leaves a spare hole, so it is only worth doing if you fill and refinish the door or choose a backplated knob that covers both marks. The reverse swap - knob to handle - needs one new hole drilled.
