Re: To handle or not to handle 17Nov 17, 2010 7:14 am Olga1 Why my friend said gloss finish is fully of fingermarks? She all the time clean up? Tomorrow I have to make decision which one I have to choose. I was thinking about semi gloss. Colour will may be latte- not sure yet. Of course I like gloss but worry about fingermarks. I think on lighter colors you will find gloss hides fingermarks much better than matt or semi gloss finish. But your best bet is to visit some showrooms and look for yourself. Every surface has its issues so you really need to think about what is important to you and then test the surface in a display space according to your criteria. Don't rush in because once you have selected a material and work has started there is no turning back (or at least not without significant cost). Re: To handle or not to handle 18Nov 17, 2010 7:55 am joles We have similar ones, but they are more rounded. Nothing catches on them as the rounded edges means clothing slides off IYKWIM. We also have them on pot drawers that are 900mm wide and they open easily. I love them and am very glad no-one talked me out of them (though many people tried. lol) Thanks for this advice. I was looking at these two options also. But joles, I had trouble opening soft-close drawers with this kind of handle in one of the showrooms. Are your soft close or regular? And could you tell me the width of the handle approx? Re: To handle or not to handle 19Nov 17, 2010 8:00 am Melrich xquisite Those silver strips are a good option if you have gloss as I'm sure the fingerprints would drive me mad. I'm not a fan of handles, as you can always date a kitchen by the handles that it has. We have none and our kitchen is from the early 70s. Everyone thinks it's new! Even though it's matt I have to clean marks off the doors, but i'm sure i'd have to do this anyway. White gloss hides fingerprints very well. Solid matts are far worse for fingerprints. We have all handleless except for on the pantry. Love it. Love the clean look. http://s946.photobucket.com/albums/ad302/melrich2/?action=view¤t=IMG_0195.jpg&newest=1 http://s946.photobucket.com/albums/ad302/melrich2/?action=view¤t=IMG_0195.jpg&newest=1#!oZZ1QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs946.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fad302%2Fmelrich2%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3DIMG_0210.jpg%26newest%3D1 Melrich, I just love your kitchen. Thanks for sharing. Tell me, off topic, but what is your splashback. Its lovely. Re: To handle or not to handle 20Nov 17, 2010 9:35 am Radha Melrich, I just love your kitchen. Thanks for sharing. Tell me, off topic, but what is your splashback. Its lovely. Thank you. The splashback is made of stainless steel, nickel and glass tiles in what they call a "brick" mosaic. Black on light wood does look good. Not sure if it will be as long lasting as a steel finish? 6 6346 Get some long brass machine screws and bolt right through the gate and put brass acorn nuts and washers on the other side.
