Whichever knobs you eventually choose, before screwing any holes into the cabinets, be sure to make up a template ( stiff cardboard works well) first. Mark a hole on the template exactly where on the door you want the knob. Then use the template to mark the spot that you will screw into on the door. By using a template you can ensure that the placement of the knobs on every door will be the same.Helpful Reply -

I am partial to the chicken knobs. All Are nice but, the hue and style of the cabinets should be the deciding factor. You can return unused knobs so buy, hold up to cabinets and you will know. I Wish you the best in your new place. Decorating is fun!Helpful Reply -

You said the landlord gave you permission to install. Did he also give you permission to remove or at least to remove and replace? I am a landlord, and normally I address these issues, so if you were my tenant, I would want to know that you will replace them, if you remove them, and I would want to know in advance, what you intend to replace them with. Without this agreement, you will be bound to leave them behind. Why, because you altered the cabinets. If you remove them without his permission, he has a right to replace them himself and deduct the cost from your deposit. PS: Get it in writing.I give you a heads up on this because I don't want you to be surprised down the road.Helpful Reply -

I personally love the herbs! But keep in mind that you will be leaving them when you move. Knobs can add up quick to a nice sum of money. While the landlord is giving you permission you will need to leave some sort of knob there when you move out. I appreciate your need to make the style your own, but I would go with a cheaper version and decorate the room in your own style.Helpful Reply -

As a landlord has already pointed out you will be putting holes in cabinets and pretty well have to leave whatever you place there. Why not get inexpensive knobs. Home Depot has packages of 10 for about 25 dollars. I believe they have handles too, and while you're there you might want to pick up a plastic templates (handles and knobs) made for this very purpose. if you're hoping your landlord will pay for the hardware, this is probably your best bet. However, if you truly want something more personal the herb knobs are rather nice.Helpful Reply -

Love every one! I have big hands and I always go by touch and feel, can I get my fingers in the pulls without breaking my nails, are the knobs big enough and sturdy enough for long term use. And it does not need to be the same, mix it up a little, if you feel so inclined. Choose what makes you happy! And yes, use a template, makes the installation easier! Have fun!Helpful Reply- See 1 previous

ffaI love the roosters! And black and white matches every color. But I agree with Pat R. We are landlords also and once you install them they do become a permanent fixture to the home and must remain.Helpful Reply -
