Atlas Homewares U Turn Collection cabinet hardware
The Atlas Homewares U Turn Collection is a modern pull line whose defining trait is a returned, U-shaped grip rather than a straight bar. It is a pull-focused family with a notably broad color palette for a contemporary line.
What identifies the U Turn look
U Turn folds back on itself in a tight, squared U so the handle reads as a closed loop against the door rather than an open bar. The geometry is the entire statement. Sample sizes run a small 1 1/4 inch bar pull and 2 1/2 inch and 5 1/16 inch center-to-center pulls. Finishes are unusually varied: high white gloss, slate, modern bronze, champagne, polished chrome, brushed nickel, and matte black, mixing painted color options with standard metals.
Buying considerations
U Turn suits modern and contemporary kitchens with slab or flat-panel doors where a distinctive grip shape adds character without ornament. The painted finishes, high white gloss and slate, let the hardware blend into or accent painted cabinetry, while modern bronze and champagne warm the look and matte black sharpens it. The compact 1 1/4 inch and 2 1/2 inch sizes suit small doors and narrow drawers where a long bar would crowd the face. Decide between a painted or metal finish direction up front, since the two read very differently across a full run. For small upper doors, pair a simple coordinating knob if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Atlas Homewares U Turn Collection different from a standard bar pull?
The U Turn pull folds back on itself in a tight, squared U shape so the handle reads as a closed loop against the cabinet door rather than an open bar. A standard bar pull is a straight rod bridging two mounting posts, while the U Turn's returned geometry is its primary design statement. This makes it visually distinctive without added ornamentation.
What finishes are available in the Atlas Homewares U Turn Collection?
The U Turn Collection offers high white gloss, slate, modern bronze, champagne, polished chrome, brushed nickel, and matte black. This palette mixes painted color options with conventional metal finishes, which is unusually broad for a contemporary pull line. Choosing between a painted finish and a metal finish up front matters because the two read very differently across a full run of cabinetry.
How does the U Turn Collection compare to the Atlas Homewares Successi Collection?
The Successi Collection is a straight-bar contemporary pull, while the U Turn takes the same modern, minimal design language and replaces the open bar with a closed, U-shaped loop. Both suit flat-panel and slab-door cabinetry, but the U Turn's returned grip adds a more distinctive silhouette for shoppers who want a modern pull with a stronger shape identity. Successi is the closer option if a clean, conventional bar profile is preferred.
What cabinet door and drawer sizes is the U Turn Collection best suited for?
The collection includes a 1 1/4 inch bar pull and center-to-center sizes of 2 1/2 inch and 5 1/16 inch. The compact 1 1/4 inch and 2 1/2 inch options are particularly well suited to small upper cabinet doors and narrow drawers where a longer bar pull would crowd the door face. The line is designed for modern and contemporary kitchens with slab or flat-panel doors.
