TPH dictionary: types of cabinet hardware

Mr. Hammer & Mrs. Paint needed some hardware for various projects they have in flight and planned for the very near future. I was going to spend a 12 hour day shopping, so I took it on myself to look for some used hardware. I was successful, in that I found two 4-packs of drawer pulls and a knocker. As I took pictures and then planned to tell Mrs. Paint what I had purchased, I realized I didn't have the vocabulary to tell her. So I asked the internets.

The internets took me here, to Cliffside Industries. Cliffside tells me that the hardware I purchased falls into the "pulls" and "handles" category of cabinet hardware because they require more than 1 screw for installation.

Once I had that tidbit, I had to get creative. From about 5 different sites, I concluded that I found:
  • a set of 4 bail or drop pulls (left)
  • a set of 4 pulls with backplates (right)
I hope you're enjoying learning these things along with me!
