How to install kitchen door handles

Installing your kitchen door handles is straightforward and easy to do. With just a few tools, you can add the finishing touch to your new doors in a flash. Here’s a step by step guide on how to install your brand new door handles.

1. Gather your tools: You'll need some masking tape, a pencil, an adjustable square, a drill and a screwdriver.
2. Locate handle position: Start by marking your handle position with masking tape. Industry standards are 50mm from the bottom and sides of the door.
3. Pencil handle placement on masking tape : Once the masking tape has been applied, mark the position of your first hole with the adjustable square and draw a line directly up from this marking where the handle will go. 
4. Drill screw holes: Measure the distance between both the holes on your masking tape and the screw holes in the handle to ensure they line up. When satisfied, drill the first hole through the door and repeat this for the second hole. 
5. Screw handle in place: Once drilled, remove the masking tape, place the screw through the back of the door in the drilled holes and screw the handle into place. Repeat for all doors!
