The Top Knobs Whittier pull is a contemporary cabinet pull designed for wide drawer banks, tall pantry doors, and oversized cabinet fronts where a short pull would look undersized and feel awkward to grip.
Most cabinet pulls top out well below 12 inches, which is why this size exists as its own category. A 36-inch or wider drawer front, a tall pantry column, a kitchen island face, or a furniture-scale armoire door all have the proportional mass to carry hardware at this length. A shorter pull on a front this wide reads as an afterthought, while a pull sized to the front anchors the hardware visually and makes the piece feel resolved. The 12-inch spacing also suits utility drawers in a shop or laundry context, where a longer grip makes it easier to open a heavy, loaded drawer with a full hand rather than two fingers.
The pull is cast in zinc and finished in Slate, a cool gray with silver undertones that sits in the same tonal family as brushed steel and pewter without being either. It is a muted finish: it does not reflect the way a polished chrome does and does not disappear into dark cabinetry the way a matte black does. On light fronts it reads as a quiet contrast. On gray or greige cabinetry it blends and lets the cabinet profile carry the room. The slim 7/16 inch bar width keeps the profile fine even at this length, so the hardware reads as a line rather than a structural element.
This pull is a natural fit for designers and cabinet shops specifying contemporary kitchens, bath vanities with wide drawer banks, or built-in furniture pieces where the hardware program needs to scale up with the cabinetry. At 12 inches it is also commonly specified for appliance-panel installations on dishwasher and refrigerator-adjacent cabinetry, where the goal is visual continuity across tall fronts. Because it belongs to the Whittier series, companion pulls in shorter center-to-center sizes are available in the same finish and profile, making it straightforward to carry one hardware language from a two-inch spice drawer all the way to a 36-inch pantry column.
The 12-inch figure is the distance between the centers of the two mounting holes and is the number you match to your existing drill pattern or lay out for new holes. The 12-1/2 inch overall length is the end-to-end size of the pull, which is always slightly larger than the hole spacing.
Slate is a cool gray with silver undertones, closer to a medium gray than to black. It belongs to the Silver Tone color family and reads as a muted, non-reflective gray in most lighting conditions.
Yes. The Whittier series includes pulls across multiple center-to-center sizes in the same profile and Slate finish, so a 12-inch pull on wide drawers and a shorter Whittier pull on narrow drawers or doors will share the same design language.
The 7/16 inch bar is the same section used across the Whittier line at all sizes. Zinc construction keeps the bar rigid, and the slim profile is a deliberate design choice that reads as refined rather than lightweight.
When the cabinetry is scaled up, the hardware should follow. This pull gives wide fronts and deep drawer banks a grip that fits the proportion of the piece.
