11. Handles
Fitting the handles is a key step in nishing the look of a Neptune cabinet. It is very important that they are tted correctly as it
is very hard to correct poor positioning. Below are recommendations for positioning handles for the classic look.
Single handle drawers
Neptune recommends handles to be placed in the vertical and horizontal centre of solid fronted drawers.
Handle Positioning
Handles should be tted after the kitchen cabinets have been installed. The rst drawer handle position should be measured
and tted as above. Subsequent drawer handles should be tted relative to the rst drawer. The vertical position of the
handles should be made using a spirit level or measured depending on the particular layout of handles.
When drilling the drawer front for the handle screw, care should be taken to use a suitable drill bit and speed so the wood is
not damaged at the back of the hole. For a perfect result hold a piece of sacricial wood onto the back of the drawer front
while drilling to avoid breakout.
Handle Fitting
Doors
Neptune recommends that the handle is placed in the
vertical centre of doors, and in the centre of the frame.
Double handle drawers
Two handles should be vertically positioned in
the centre of the drawer panel and following the
quarter, half, quarter horizontal rule.
Suolk cabinets are tted with Neptune Chrome door hinges. A matching Suolk handle has also been designed in the same
nish to complement the Suolk range colour.
