Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
A knob-on-backplate is a good choice when cabinet faces show wear or when you want a more formal, furniture-style look than a bare knob. Choose Rustic Brass with warmer wood tones and Rustic Pewter with grays, greens and off-whites. Because the assembly projects 1-3/8 in, allow clearance in front of appliance panels and adjacent walls.
Verify the cabinet front is thick enough for the screw length so the knob cannot pull loose in use.
Add the Berenson American Mission 1-1/2 in knob with backplate for a traditional, furniture-inspired cabinet detail.
