Other Design Dilemma

Door without a handle

We are installing a simple flush door in line with our kitchen cabinets. It will be painted to match.

The kitchen cupboards are handleless. Any advice on how to open/close and hold the 'invisible' door in place without the usual handle and latch.

Use a magnetic pressure push catch.

So you know I bought a single 'click deco' brand dolly light switch a while back and found it to be pretty poor quality so it was returned. Ended up with these: http://www.forbesandlomax.com/the-unlacquered-brass-range.html Really good quality and they have lovely finishes too. I quite like their antique bronze range too as it contrasts nicely with chrome/nickel finishes without clashing. If you'd really like everything to match then take a look at the Jim Lawrence range. They're not the cheapest but offer both light switches and door furniture in a large selection of finishes. They also do the narrow style of light switches which I think looks really elegant in older houses. https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/door-window/door-handles-door-knobs/bromley-handle-with-bristol-keyhole-backplate-in-510201bw?returnurl=%2fdoor-window%2fdoor-handles-door-knobs%2f%3fcount%3d36 https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/1-gang-dolly-architrave-switch-in-chrome-with-3279chniz https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/2-gang-black-dolly-switch-bevelled-plate/

Kitchen door handles on wrong way around

Oh no :-/ .... it will be so worth it once you have got it through the window though, it is gorgeous! I'll take a look at the website now - thanks..... if it's any consolation I once bought a sofa that just would not fit into the house. We got it in in the end but it involved getting a very talented upholsterer to take a saw (I felt sick) to my brand new sofa and then re-build it as good as new in the room...phew :-)

Door handle height for victorian doors

I think the height is irrelevant because every door is different. So I think you have to buy a long spindle and place the knob or handle in the centre of where the cross bar would be (if it were a solid door rather than hollow) This picture of an old door shows the traditional placement

What type of handles for this type of door?
Q
Comments (2)
I like continuing a theme so if the handles match something else then that’s good- but not essential so don’t worry if something else doesn’t match. Separately I think on a door with strong geometric lines perhaps a handle with a square rose would be a better choice.
