Can I Upgrade IKEA Kitchen Handles with Your Range?

Absolutely – you can give your IKEA kitchen a whole new personality just by changing the handles! At Door 2 Door Handles, we often hear from homeowners who love their IKEA cabinets but want a more personalized look. The good news is that upgrading those stock IKEA handles with our range is one of the easiest DIY projects you can do – and it makes a huge difference.

Unlike a full kitchen remodel, simply swapping out cabinet hardware is a quick, straightforward task that almost anyone can tackle. In this post, we’ll show you how our wide selection of handles can help you transform your kitchen with minimal effort.

Why Upgrade Your IKEA Kitchen Handles?

Many IKEA kitchens come with simple, utilitarian knobs or pulls – they work fine, but they’re a bit generic and lack flair. Changing the handles is a budget-friendly way to add you to your kitchen decor without replacing any cabinets or doors. IKEA’s own selection of handle styles and finishes is somewhat limited, so sourcing your hardware from a specialist like Door 2 Door Handles opens up a much greater range of options. That means you can find the perfect style to suit your taste, whether it’s modern matte-black pulls or classic brass knobs. In short, new handles let you enjoy a custom-looking kitchen that reflects your personality – all for a fraction of the cost of a full renovation.

Standard Sizes for a Perfect Fit

One question we often get is whether our handles will fit the pre-drilled holes on IKEA cabinets. Yes they will! Door 2 Door Handles offers a wide range of cabinet handles in the standard sizes that IKEA uses, such as 96 mm and 128 mm center-to-center spacing. (These measurements refer to the distance between the screw holes on the handle.)

Because our range is tailored to these standard dimensions, you can usually just unscrew your old IKEA handles and screw in our replacements using the same holes. It’s a perfect fit that makes this upgrade incredibly easy.

The key is to measure the hole spacing on your current IKEA handles (for example, from the center of one screw to the center of the other). Once you know that measurement, you can pick a matching Door 2 Door handle. We carry all the popular sizes, so it’s simple to find a handle that drops right into place. No drilling, no mess.

DIY-Friendly Installation (No Special Tools Needed)

One of the best things about a handle upgrade is how DIY-friendly it is. You don’t need to be a professional or have a workshop full of tools to do this – far from it. In most cases, the only tool you’ll need is a screwdriver to remove the old handles and fasten the new ones. No specialist jigs or power tools. No complex skills required.

Here’s how simple it is:

1. Unscrew the old handles – usually from inside the door or drawer.

2. Line up the new handle over the existing holes.

3. Screw in the new handle using the screws provided.

That’s it! A simple swap, and your kitchen instantly starts to look and feel refreshed.

Endless Styles and Finishes to Personalize Your Kitchen

Upgrading your handles isn’t just about freshening up old hardware – it’s about expressing your personal style. With Door 2 Door Handles, you have seemingly endless choices to achieve the exact look you want. Our range covers every popular finish and material, so you can find something that complements your kitchen’s theme or creates a bold accent.

From sleek stainless steel bars and brushed nickel T-bar handles, to elegant satin brass or antique bronze knobs, to matte black pulls for a trendy contrast – the possibilities are vast. We also offer unique textures and materials like knurled finishes, ceramic details, or warm wood tones.

Whether your dream kitchen vibe is sleek and modern, cozy farmhouse, or timeless traditional, the right handle choice will pull it all together. And since swapping handles is so easy, you can experiment freely until you find the perfect fit for your space.

A Small Change with a Big Impact

It’s amazing how much impact new handles can have on the overall look and feel of your kitchen. Cabinet hardware might seem like a small detail, but swapping out those basic factory knobs for stylish, quality pieces can make your kitchen suddenly look more upscale and personalized.

This upgrade is also cost-effective. You’re not spending thousands on new cabinetry – just picking out a few handles and doing a simple DIY project. You’ll be surprised at the transformation.

And if you’re planning to sell or rent your home, these small details can make a big difference in how your kitchen presents itself to potential buyers or tenants.
