Home Improvement - Use Door Handles to Pull it Together

Like the infamous television show featuring Tim Allen and his family, home improvement projects are often rife with mishaps and accidents. However, not all home repair projects are alike. Some - such as installing new cabinet hardware - are so easy to start and complete, you'll wonder why you never thought to reinstall your cabinet hardware before!

Make a List, Check it Twice
When you hire of a professional to begin any home repair, they most likely evaluate the situation, assess the amount of work to be done and offer an estimate of the costs of labor as well as the cost of replacement parts. Likewise, so too should you make a list of the areas you'd like to replace as well as the number of parts you will need to complete the project. Be sure to count the number of smaller and often overlooked parts such as screws, hinges, floor registers and back plates to the drawer pulls and aluminium lever door handle suppliers. Check your list twice to make sure you have an accurate count of parts you will need.

Do Your Homework
With your handy list in hand of what you will need, it is now time for the fun part! Whether you browse online, in a catalog or in a physical store, you should allow yourself time to window shop. Gather ideas from stores, neighbors and friends about what works - and doesn't work - for cabinet and door hardware accessories. Compare prices; check out a variety of styles, finishes and materials to see what will last and look nice in your home.

Consider Your Options for Materials
These days, it seems that styles come and go so quickly that it is best to go with your gut feeling on what your likes and dislikes are. If you prefer elegant, decorative pieces, then look for sturdy, heavy materials such as nickel and iron that have been weathered, antiqued and or burnished.
