Cabinet Hardware

Cabinet hardware upgrades across Tampa Bay

Hardware is one of the cheapest, fastest ways to change how a kitchen feels, but getting it right takes more than a screwdriver if your new pulls don't match the spacing of the old ones. We connect you with insured local pros who install new pulls, knobs, and hinges, and when a hole pattern doesn't line up, they fill and refinish the old holes properly so it doesn't look patched. Along the coast, standard hardware finishes corrode faster than you'd expect from salt-humid air working its way into a kitchen through an open window or a coastal breeze, so your matched pro can point you toward finishes built to hold up out here.

What do homeowners ask about Cabinet Hardware?

How much does cabinet hardware installation cost in Tampa?

Most whole-kitchen hardware swaps run $400 to $1,200 when the new hardware matches the existing hole spacing. Add filling and refinishing old holes for a different pull style or spacing, and the job typically runs $1,200 to $2,500 depending on door count and finish quality on the fill work. A handful of doors or a single vanity costs far less than a full kitchen.

Can you match new pulls to my existing hole spacing?

Sometimes, if the new hardware you want uses a similar center-to-center spacing to what's already drilled. When it doesn't, your matched pro fills the old holes, sands and finishes the area to blend with the door, then drills fresh holes to a consistent template. Ask about hole spacing before you buy hardware online, since matching spacing is what keeps this an easy swap instead of a refinishing job.

What hardware finishes hold up best near the coast?

Standard chrome and cheap plated finishes corrode fast in salt-humid air, sometimes within a year or two in homes close to the Gulf Beaches, St. Pete Beach, or Tierra Verde. Solid brass, stainless steel, and powder-coated finishes hold up significantly longer. If you're within a few miles of saltwater, ask your matched pro about corrosion-resistant options before you fall in love with a finish that won't last out here.

How long does a full-kitchen hardware upgrade take?

A straightforward swap with matching hole spacing usually takes about a day for a full kitchen. If old holes need filling and refinishing, plan for the fill work to need dry and cure time before new holes are drilled, which can stretch a job to two days depending on the finish and how many doors are involved.

Can I add soft-close hinges at the same time as new hardware?

Yes, and it's a common pairing since the doors are already off for hardware work. Most standard cabinet doors can accept soft-close hinges as a direct swap if the hinge cup size matches, which your matched pro checks before quoting. Combining the two jobs into one visit usually costs less than scheduling them separately.
