We have handles that require 2 screws, not knobs. What is the proper height the hands should be installed on the top cabinets? at the bottom? Just below center or in the middle of the cabinet? Is it just preference?
Some of the placement is preference, some of it is convention, which is generally closer to the top corner. Go to a store that has ready made cabinets on display, and 'play' with opening and closing the doors that have similar style handles to yours. You will soon know what placement you prefer. Measure the one you like.
Once you have decided on the exact measurement on a door, make a template out of sturdy cardboard with the holes carefully punched through. Tape the template to each consecutive door and use as a guide for placement of the screw holes.
