There’s a little back and forth as you need to be precise, unless you want to redrill the holes. Once I had measure the distance between my screw holes on the cabinet I had the length for the middle bar. If you have a smaller, more delicate project you may prefer a smaller dowel and tee. I opted for a 20mm Copper tee and 19mm dowel. I wanted to make sure the pulls were the right size for the drawer and cabinet.
#DIY 3 INCH CABINET PULLS HOW TO#
I had a design in mind and had seen similar ones online so knew roughly what I wanted I just had to figure out HOW to make them. I had searched for the size I needed online and each pull were costing approximately $50 for the larger one and they weren’t exactly what I wanted. In this example I have 6 single drawers and 3 larger drawers, so needed to make a single pull for the smaller drawers and wanted a longer bar for the larger drawers.
If you’re working off a new draw or cabinet face you will need to determine the size then you can think about the type of pull you want to use. The original cabinet had 2 single pulls on the larger drawer and I didn’t like that look, I wanted one large pull. To start I measured the distance between the holes on the larger drawer and realised very quickly I couldn’t just buy one off the shelf due to the size. I wasn’t really sure if I was actually going to be able to pull this off (no pun intended) but I did! And I am SO in love so I wanted to share them with you.Īs I am upcycling an old cabinet I plan to reuse the holes from the old cabinet pulls. I recently decided I was going to make my own cabinet pulls. When you need cabinet pulls for every cabinet in your home & the ones you like are around $50 you decide to make your own.
this made 9 drawer pulls approx $15 each. Total cost for the materials is approx $135.
