"Thank you Lou and Gib!, For the second time you make all things new.. I hired Lou Log Kitchens to re-do my Orchard Park home kitchen. We built the home and that builder disappointed us greatly. So the reface was done by this company.. When we downsized and bought a home in another area I saw the cabinets were of the same quality of our first builder. No worries, I bought our home knowing I would need LOU LOG KITCHENS again. He and his company did not disappoint. My new kitchen in my present home turned out spectacular. As a side note: I saw a great growth in the years in between. Lou Log Kitchen invested in better and even more efficient equipment and continued to create a better, more cleaner way of doing cabinets. Their efficiency was noticed and was remarkable. Thank you Lou and Gib. You are outstanding and men of character and integrity which I appreciate immensely. Debbie Keem Elma, NY."

The 1/3 rule is a design guideline used by interior designers and cabinet installers to select appropriately sized pulls for cabinets and drawers. The rule suggests that for a balanced and cohesive look, a cabinet pull should be approximately one-third the height of the cabinet door or one-third the width of the drawer face. This guideline helps create a symmetrical appearance because the human eye tends to follow the length of the pull across the cabinet face.
While the 1/3 rule is a helpful starting point, it is not the only option. If a measurement falls between available pull sizes, it's generally best to size up. For an ultra-contemporary aesthetic, you can also opt for full-width pulls that span the entire drawer.
Yes, you can replace the cabinet hardware after installation to change up the look of your cabinets. Replacing the hinges, handles, pulls, and knobs allows you the design flexibility to match your other appliances or finish schemes to your liking. Talk with your kitchen designer or cabinet installer about the best hardware option for your cabinets.
It’s much less expensive to build your own garage shelves, and you’ll still get stable, long-lasting, and sharp-looking shelves. Garage storage systems cost between $615 and $2,635, with the national average of about $1,455. Building DIY garage shelves typically costs less than $500, and the quality of a DIY garage shelving unit will almost always be higher than what you could buy premade for the equivalent price.
Before making any big plans, climb up a step ladder and closely examine the top of your cabinets. You’ll get to see what sort of clean-up work needs to be done, but you can also check for any unexpected obstacles. Sometimes this space holds electrical boxes, wiring, or even plumbing components. Those will affect plans to install a new layer of cabinets or shelves.
You aren’t obligated to tip cabinet contractors, but you can choose to do so if they went above and beyond and you want to show your gratitude. This is usually something in the ballpark of 10% to 15% of your total cost. As an alternative, you can provide snacks and drinks for workers and/or offer to serve as a reference for prospective customers.
