Before you begin:
Use a tape measure to find the center of the cabinet doorframe and mark with a pencil. For new installation usea Hickory Hardware drill hole template with drill bit. Thiswill assure precision placement of your knobs and pulls.
Drilling holes:
Use the recommended 3/16? drill bit after you?ve marked your knob or pull placement. Somepulls that have stud-bosses will require a 1/4? hole. A stud-boss is an extension of the screwmould that will be counter-sunk into the cabinet door. A 1/4? drill bit will be needed. This willassure the pull sits flat against the cabinet face. Drill a hole completely through the cabinet face.
Mounting hardware:
Use a Phillips screwdriver to hand tighten the screw from the back of the cupboard or drawerfront threading the screw into the knob or pull located on the front.
