Cabinet hardware may be small in size, but it holds remarkable power. The right pull or knob can shift the mood of an entire kitchen, transform a basic vanity, or add polish to built in cabinetry. For homeowners seeking refined detail and long lasting quality, the Richelieu cabinet hardware collection delivers exceptional craftsmanship and style. At Design Surfaces in Westlake, serving homeowners, designers, and contractors across Cleveland, we proudly showcase one of the most comprehensive Richelieu selections in Northeast Ohio. Whether you are upgrading a single room or designing a full home renovation, this guide will help you explore the possibilities.
Richelieu is widely considered a leader in decorative hardware, known for its innovation, global design collaborations, and high quality materials. Their pulls and knobs are created not just for function, but for the visual and tactile pleasure they bring to everyday living spaces.
Richelieu offers:
Though small, these details complete the look of kitchens, vanities, and built-ins. When paired with countertops, tile, and wood finishes from Design Surfaces, the right hardware elevates the entire room.
Richelieu is known for combining style forward design with everyday durability. Here is why Cleveland homeowners and designers consistently choose this hardware brand.
Whether you prefer ultra modern bar pulls, sculptural knobs, vintage influenced cups, or bold statement handles, Richelieu supplies options for every aesthetic.
Satin brass, matte black, polished chrome, gunmetal, antique bronze, brushed gold and more provide endless room for customization. Many finishes are corrosion resistant, ideal for kitchens and bathrooms.
Handles and pulls are designed to feel sturdy, smooth, and comfortable in hand. This is especially important in high traffic spaces like kitchens, mudrooms, and built in storage.
Richelieu hardware works beautifully across new builds, remodels, and small refresh projects.
Design Surfaces helps you compare shapes, finishes, and sizes in person so you can choose hardware that complements your cabinetry, countertops, and tile.
If replacing existing hardware, verify the center to center measurement. If designing new cabinetry, you can choose any size that suits your style.
Hardware is a touchpoint of daily life. Holding each option helps you understand weight, texture, and ergonomics. The Design Surfaces showroom provides hardware boards, countertop samples, and vanity displays for hands on comparison.
Richelieu hardware is built to last with finishes engineered for heavy daily use.
Care tips:
With proper care, Richelieu hardware maintains its beauty for many years.
The difference is clear. Richelieu provides designer level craftsmanship, exclusive collections, and a wider range of materials than big box retailers. These pieces are made to be noticed, touched, and appreciated. For homeowners building a custom or semi custom look, Richelieu consistently outperforms generic options.
One of the greatest strengths of the Richelieu hardware line is its ability to create fully customized looks. Rather than choosing a single finish or shape, many designers combine styles for added depth, personality, and visual balance. With thoughtful coordination, cabinet hardware becomes a deliberate design feature instead of a simple accessory.
Here are elevated ways to mix and match Richelieu hardware like a pro:
Pair two complementary finishes, such as brushed brass with matte black or chrome with satin nickel, to create a curated, high end look. Blended finishes work especially well in kitchens with mixed metal lighting or plumbing.
Longer pulls on wide drawers or pantry doors create a clean architectural feel, while shorter pulls on upper cabinets offer balance and function. Mixing lengths keeps cabinetry visually dynamic.
Knobs add softness and charm on upper cabinets or small drawers, while pulls provide better grip and strength for heavy use drawers. Using both creates a thoughtful, designer level contrast.
Oversized pulls on appliance panels, tall linen cabinets, or built in storage brings attention to statement worthy areas of the home. Richelieu offers numerous large scale options ideal for this purpose.
