Lip Pull Kitchen Handles That Disappear into Minimalist Design
For kitchens that favour clean lines and seamless surfaces, Buildmat’s lip pull cabinet handles offer understated functionality.
Designed to sit along the edge of cabinet doors and drawers, these sleek profiles provide an easy grip without visual bulk, perfect for modern, handle-free aesthetics.
Why Choose a Lip Pull Style for Your Kitchen Cabinet Handles?
- Streamlined Aesthetic: These edge-mounted pulls blend into the cabinet profile, letting your materials, like stone, timber, or matte finishes, take centre stage.
- Easy Everyday Use: Despite their minimal footprint, lip pulls provide a comfortable, intuitive grip along drawers and cupboard tops.
- Durable Construction: Made from solid stainless steel or aluminium alloys, they’re built to withstand the daily rhythm of busy kitchens without bending, loosening, or corroding.
Styles & Configurations
- Top-Mount Lip Pulls: Fixed along the top edge of drawer fronts for a near-invisible look when closed.
- Side-Mount Vertical Pulls: Ideal for tall pantry doors or integrated appliances.
- Full-Width Edge Grips: Extended lip profiles that span the entire drawer face for maximum impact and ergonomic handling.
Finishes & Styling
Buildmat’s lip pull handles are available in a range of curated finishes designed to elevate your cabinetry without overpowering it:
-
Brushed Brass: Warm and subtly textured, brushed brass adds a soft, golden glow that pairs beautifully with timber cabinetry, white stone benchtops, and neutral palettes. Ideal for adding a luxe yet approachable feel to modern kitchens.
-
Matte Black: Bold and minimalist, matte black offers strong contrast and a fingerprint-resistant surface. Best suited for modern, Scandinavian, or industrial spaces.
-
Brushed Nickel & Stainless Steel: Cool-toned and understated, these finishes coordinate effortlessly with appliances, sinks, and mixers for a cohesive and timeless look.
Each finish is designed to resist wear, moisture, and fingerprints, ensuring your kitchen hardware looks sharp for years to come.
