Introduction

Installing cabinet handles may seem like a minor detail, but it's a simple yet effective way to enhance the overall look and functionality of your cupboards. Whether you're updating your kitchen, bathroom, or any other cabinetry, this step-by-step guide will help you achieve a polished and professional result.

Materials You'll Need:

• Little Swagger Cabinet handles
• Screwdriver 
• Measuring tape or ruler
• Pencil or painter's tape
• Power drill (optional, for quicker installation)
• Screws

Step-by-Step Installation:

• Prepare Your Workspace:

Start by clearing the area around the cabinets and ensuring you have enough space to work comfortably. Lay down a soft cloth or towel to protect the cabinet surface from scratches.

• Choose Handle Placement:

Decide on the placement of your cabinet handles. The most common placement is centred horizontally on the cabinet door, about 50 to 100mm from the top or bottom edge. Use a measuring tape, pencil, and ruler to mark the exact positions for consistency.

• Use Painter's Tape (Optional):

If you're concerned about making pencil marks directly on your cabinets, you can use painter's tape. Place a piece of tape where you want the handle to go, mark the centre, and make your measurements on the tape.

• Prepare to Drill:

If your cabinet handles require two screws, you'll need to drill holes for them. Measure the distance between the screw holes on the back of the handle and transfer these measurements onto your cabinet door. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the screw diameter to create pilot holes. If you're using a power drill, be sure to adjust the drill's speed to prevent damaging the cabinet.

• Attach the Handles:

Place the handle over the pilot holes and align it with your markings. Insert the screws through the back of the cabinet door into the pilot holes and use a screwdriver to tighten them.

• Check and Adjust:

Once both handles are attached, double-check their alignment to ensure they are straight and evenly placed. Make any necessary adjustments before tightening the screws completely.

• Repeat for Other Cabinets:

If you're installing handles on multiple cabinets, repeat the same steps for each one. Consistency in placement will create a cohesive and polished look throughout your space.

• Tighten and Secure:

After ensuring all handles are aligned and straight, use a screwdriver to securely tighten all screws. Be careful not to overtighten, as this could strip the screw holes.
