Step 3 With your ruler, find the center of the template width and draw a line down the center, dividing the template in half. Step 4 Take the 2nd measurement and measure from the bottom up on the template and mark the intersection where the lowest hole for the hardware will be.
I want to use one template for all 3 sizes. Next is a super cool trick to get totally accurate measurement of your hardware. Step 5 You can either measure the distance between the hardware holes or you can use this easy trick! Take a washable marker and color the bottom of the hardware screw holes.
Line up the hardware on the template and stamp the color onto the template. Use a different color for each hardware size. The marker washes right off easily by dabbing it on a wet sponge. Now my template has all 3 hardware sizes on it! Step 6 Line up your cabinet hardware template along the edge of cabinet. Step 7 Hold the drill level and drill through the appropriate holes on the cabinet hardware template and then attach the hardware.

Did you get a chance to see how the rest of the kitchen is going to be shaping up? I shared my inspiration and plans for the rest of it just the other day….
Beautiful cabinet and knob choice. I love the pulls with the sparkly knobs. The template idea is very clever. Do you know how this idea can work on a dresser? Hi Andrea, I think you could do the same thing — essentially decide where you want the knobs to go, then cut a small wooden or cardboard template out to adjust where they go, mark it on the template, and then line it up with the edge of the drawers or doors and use the template to help you evenly mark the dresser.
The only thing that might change is if the dresser has different sized drawers and you want them to be centered in each drawer, no evenly spaced from the top or bottom.
Good luck with your project! Oh Krista, your kitchen is everything I love!! And what a great tip! Thanks for sharing. I have a great idea in this article that how to easy way to install cabinet knobs with a template. Thanks for sharing with helpful idea. Hi Krista, Thank you so much for the great tip to install cabinet knobs. I had no idea how easy the template made everything. Thanks to you and my steady hand the job turned out perfectly. So glad I came across your post. Thank you so much and the work you did is fabulous.
I like that you suggest to figure out exactly where you want each knobs or handle and then draw a template to help guide you in placing it at the right spot. I can see why it would be a little frustrating to place it in the wrong spot. It seems like watching training videos would be useful before drilling the hole. I have the same crystal pulls you have and I love them but Im not entirely sure how to install them.
Did you use one size bit to drill the cabinet since the pull has a sink the end that inserts into the cabinet? Or did you drill half way through with one size and then another the rest of the way just big enough for the screw to fit through. Make sense?? I found you because I could not figure out why there is an extension on this knob and how you drill the hole? Also how did you mount them flush with you cabinet in that case? I called Top Knobs today and they said people like them to have the extension on them.
Anything you can tell me will help before I return them. I love the look but do want them to be mounted flush. Thank you! Hi Kimberly!
