The average cost to install cabinet hardware is $300 nationwide, with a range from $100 to $10,000, depending on project scope. Most standard installations cost between $7 and $30 per piece including both materials and labor. For an average kitchen with 20-40 hardware pieces, expect to pay $120 to $2,400 total. Material selection significantly affects pricing, with basic options starting at $1 to $5 per piece while premium materials like brass ($5-$200) or crystal ($3-$75) command higher prices.
The 1/3 rule for cabinet hardware suggests selecting pulls that measure approximately one-third the height of cabinet doors and one-third the width of drawers for optimal visual proportion. For example, a 24-inch wide drawer would look best with an 8-inch pull, while a 30-inch tall cabinet door might use a 10-inch handle. This guideline helps create balanced aesthetics but should be considered flexible based on your specific cabinet style and personal preferences.
Cabinet hardware installation costs can escalate due to several factors beyond basic labor. Premium materials significantly impact price, with high-end options like brass, bronze, or crystal ranging from $5 to $200 per piece compared to basic options at $1 to $10. Ornate or specialty hardware requires precise placement and sometimes specialized tools. If existing cabinets need repair, refinishing, or custom templates for consistent placement, these services add to the total expense. Finally, large kitchens with numerous cabinets naturally multiply the overall project cost.
