How to Put Door Knobs on Kitchen Cabinets

Upgrading your kitchen cabinet hardware is a simple and affordable way to give your kitchen a fresh new look. While it may seem like a daunting task, installing door knobs on kitchen cabinets is actually quite easy with the right tools and a little bit of patience.

Before you start, you will need the following:

New door knobs
Drill
1/8-inch drill bit
Screwdriver
Measuring tape
Pencil

Once you have all of your materials, follow these steps to install the new door knobs:

Choose the location for the new door knob. Use a pencil to mark the center of the desired location.
Drill a hole in the cabinet door at the marked location. The hole should be 1/8-inch in diameter and deep enough to accommodate the screw.
Insert the doorknob's mounting screw into the hole in the cabinet door.
Screw the mounting screw into the doorknob by turning it clockwise with a screwdriver.
Tighten the screw until the doorknob is secure.
Repeat the process for the remaining cabinet doors.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed new door knobs on your kitchen cabinets. With a little bit of time and effort, you can give your kitchen a whole new look without breaking the bank.

Here are some additional tips for installing door knobs on kitchen cabinets:

If you are installing new door knobs on existing holes, make sure to use a slightly larger drill bit to prevent the holes from getting stripped out.
If the door knob is loose after you have installed it, you can tighten it by using a small amount of glue or epoxy.
To prevent the door knob from scratching the cabinet door, you can use a thin piece of felt to protect the cabinet door's finish.
