Castella Buckhurst Cabinet Handles Buying Guide

The Castella Buckhurst is an Art Deco-inspired cabinet hardware range in zinc alloy, with a pull handle and a 16mm knob. Its offset, symmetrical design draws on the 1920s and 1930s, and it comes in Polished Chrome, Dull Brushed Nickel and Brushed Antique Brass for period homes, classic kitchens and characterful vanities.

What is an Art Deco cabinet handle?

Art Deco design flourished in the 1920s and 1930s and is known for strong geometry, symmetry and stepped or layered detail. Art Deco handles often use chrome or brass finishes and bold, architectural shapes. The Buckhurst pull has symmetrical detailing with an offset profile, which gives a vintage character while staying simple enough for a modern room.

What sizes does the Buckhurst come in?

The Buckhurst pull comes in two sizes: 158mm long on a 128mm fixing distance, and 222mm long on a 192mm fixing distance. The pull projects 28mm from the door. The knob is 16mm across, a small, discreet size that suits doors, small drawers and furniture.

Which size should I choose?

Use the 128mm pull on standard kitchen and vanity drawers and on cupboard doors. Use the 192mm pull on wider drawers and pantry doors, where a longer handle looks in proportion. The 16mm knob suits overhead doors, bathroom cabinets and small drawers. Keep the same finish across pulls and knobs so the period look reads as a set.

Which Buckhurst finish suits my room?

Polished Chrome is bright and reflective, a classic Art Deco finish that suits white kitchens and black-and-white bathrooms, though it shows fingerprints more readily. Dull Brushed Nickel is softer and hides marks better, suiting grey and coastal schemes. Brushed Antique Brass is a warm, aged gold that pairs with dark timber, green, navy and cream cabinetry.

Is zinc alloy durable for cabinet handles?

Yes, indoors. Zinc alloy is die-cast, which lets it hold the crisp detailing an Art Deco design needs, and it is protected by its plated finish. Keep the finish intact by cleaning gently, and avoid placing zinc alloy handles directly in a shower splash zone, where constant water can wear the plating over time.

How do I install and clean Buckhurst handles?

Each pull fixes with two screws through the back of the door or drawer, and the knob with one. Measure existing hole spacing before ordering replacements, as a 128mm pull will not fit 160mm holes without new drilling. Clean with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, then dry. Avoid abrasive pads, metal polish and harsh cleaners, which can scratch or dull chrome and brass finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of cabinet handles are available for bathroom vanities?

Bathroom vanity cabinet handles come in bar pulls, knob handles, T-bar pulls, cup pulls, and edge pulls (for handleless drawer looks). Bar pulls in lengths of 96mm, 160mm, and 256mm are among the most popular in Australian bathrooms for their clean, contemporary appearance. Knobs are a classic choice for traditional or Hamptons-style bathrooms. The Blue Space stocks handles from brands including Momo Handles and Zanda in finishes to suit every style.

What size cabinet handle do I need?

Australian handles are generally measured by "hole centres", the distance between the two screw holes, measured centre to centre. Common sizes include 96mm and 128mm for kitchens, and 160mm becoming increasingly popular in modern builds. As a general guide, the 1/3 rule works well: your handle length should be roughly one-third the width of the door or drawer. So a 600mm-wide drawer suits a handle around 160–200mm, while smaller drawers under 300mm work best with a shorter 70–100mm pull or a knob.

Should I choose cabinet handles or knobs?

Both have their place, and many homes use a mix of the two. Handles offer a larger, more comfortable grip, making them ideal for drawers and heavier daily use. Knobs are simple to install, easy to clean, and suit cabinet doors or lower-traffic areas where a subtler look is preferred. A common approach is to use handles on drawers and knobs on doors, giving your kitchen, bathroom or laundry a considered, tailored finish.

Can I use the same cabinet handles in my kitchen, bathroom and laundry?

Yes, and many homeowners do this to create a seamless, considered flow throughout the house. That said, it's important to factor in environment: bathrooms and laundries are exposed to higher humidity and moisture, so finishes like solid brass with a PVD coating, stainless steel, or quality powder-coated options will hold up better than raw or untreated materials over time.

How do I replace cabinet handles without drilling new holes?

Measure your existing hole centres by checking the distance between the centre of each screw hole, then choose a new handle with matching hole centres. If you'd like to switch to a different style or size, options like backplates, edge pulls, or handles designed to cover old holes make it possible to update your look without redrilling your cabinetry.

How do I match cabinet handle finishes with my tapware and appliances?

For a cohesive, well-designed home, cabinet handles are best chosen to complement your tapware, sink and appliance finishes. Matte black handles pair beautifully with matte black tapware for a contemporary look, while brushed nickel or brushed brass options suit warmer, Hamptons-style spaces. If your appliances are stainless steel, brushed nickel or stainless handles will tie the room together. It's worth considering your whole space, kitchen, bathroom and laundry, for a consistent finish throughout the home.
