Adopt a minimalist look in your furniture with the cava handle

The knob has become a classic in cabinetmaking, especially in kitchens and bedrooms. Thanks to this model, cabinets, drawers and doors have a cleaner look, besides being practical and easy to clean. But before you talk to your cabinetmaker or buy furniture with this knob, how about knowing a little more about it?

What is the cava handle

The knob is a recessed opening, almost imperceptible to the eye. This characteristic allows the piece of furniture to become the protagonist. It can be made with a discreet cut in the woodwork, specifically at the tip of the drawer or door.

Types of knobs

There are two distinct types of knobs, but both serve a wide variety of purposes. Whether on the top or bottom of a drawer; on the top, bottom, or side of a cabinet door; and even on the center of a sliding or opening door, the knob can serve. Learn about the types:

1. bevel cutting

This model is nothing more than a cut made in the cabinetry itself. Although there are variations, the most popular is the 45° angle cut, because it is a more discreet model, ensuring that the surface is as smooth and discreet as possible. However, it is worth remembering that the more complex the cut, the more expensive the budget will be.

2. aluminum

Despite being an addition to the cabinetry, the aluminum knob also needs a cut to be installed, because it is inlaid. Widely used in wet areas, such as the kitchen and bathroom, this option ensures that the natural material has greater durability, considering that wet hands can stew wood over the years.

Besides the elegance, this handle will guarantee a unique durability to your furniture, whether modular or planned. With them, you will also not have to deal with external handles that always catch your clothes, for example.
