The pull-out door handle is more convenient, but relatively easier to hide dirt.

High-quality cabinet handles are flawless, more delicate in workmanship, and feel smooth and free of particles. It is recommended that owners choose electroplated or electrostatic sprayed handles, which have better wear resistance and corrosion resistance. And the pulling force of the handle is also very important. A good handle can withstand a pulling force of more than six kilograms.

The copper door handles are hard in texture and full of retro flavor, which is more suitable for matching with European style cabinets; ceramic cabinet handles are suitable for matching with Chinese style cabinets or rural style cabinets.
