You don’t necessarily have to completely revamp your kitchen completely to achieve a luxurious ‘high end’ looking kitchen. Here at Courtyard Architectural Hardware we have some great tips on how to elevate your kitchen look with some simple changes.
There are some great companies out there who will revamp your kitchen cabinet doors and drawer fronts to give your kitchen a makeover. We think it can be even simpler (and cheaper!) than that.
Have a look around your kitchen at the hardware, so we mean the drawer pulls, the door knobs, the cabinet handles. It's probably the same cabinet hardware on the units that you had when the kitchen was installed. Changing this cabinet hardware can really give your kitchen a ‘lift’. Especially if you start to look at some of the materials that can be used that give an instant feeling of opulence.
Our top choice would be to look at a material like polished brass, which gives a stylish and contemporary look or can evoke a more traditional feel too. Polished brass is durable, easy to clean and has hygienic properties as bacteria and viruses find it difficult to live on this material. You can achieve several different looks with a simple cabinet hardware change.
We would recommend something from our Henry Blake Hardware range and if you want to look at specifics these brass cabinet pull handles are luxurious and aesthetically pleasing.
Second on our list is a bronze finished cabinet handle or pull. Bronze is highly corrosive resistant and has the same allure as gold but for a fraction of the price of course. Bronze cupboard handles feel great to the touch and has that certain something that draws the eye in, an absolute game changer for any kitchen. If it's bronze that catches your eye, we don't think you can do better than these round Henry Blake Hardware cabinet knobs.
Finally, depending on the style of your kitchen and whether you are going for a more traditional or modern look, we can’t leave out a selection of chrome cabinet handles. Elegant, sophisticated and adaptable to all kitchen styles , chrome hardware has it all. These Deco End Cabinet Pull could make any kitchen look refined with an easy change of hardware.
