6'' (152.4 mm)

6 inch cabinet pulls for wide drawers and tall doors

A 6 inch drill center measures 152.4 mm center-to-center, making it the widest of the commonly stocked pull spacings. At this length, a pull stops being a small detail and becomes a real visual element on the cabinet face; the size reads as a deliberate design choice rather than just functional hardware, which is part of why it shows up so often on statement kitchen islands and oversized pantry doors.

Where 6 inch spacing fits

Drawer fronts in the 24 to 32 inch range are the typical match, which covers most wide base-cabinet drawers and island drawers. It also suits tall, narrow doors on pantry cabinets and broom closets, where a shorter pull would look lost on the height of the door. Bar pulls and T-pulls dominate the catalog at this length from Carpe Diem Hardware and Top Knobs, since the straight profile scales cleanly to a longer size without looking bulky. Schaub and Company also carries a handful of more ornate designs at this length for kitchens that want a longer pull without going fully minimalist.

Measure twice, order once

Measure center-to-center on an existing pull rather than assuming from its overall length; some 6 inch pulls carry several extra inches of metal beyond the screw holes, which throws off a length-based guess. If you're outfitting new cabinetry rather than replacing, reserve 6 inch for genuinely wide drawers; it can look oversized on anything narrower than about 24 inches, where a 4 inch pull would sit more comfortably. Pricing on 6 inch pulls swings more than on shorter sizes, since both material and length drive the cost; find the identical pull cheaper elsewhere and our 110% price match covers it.

Other sizes to compare

For standard-width drawers, 4 inch (101.6 mm) is the more common choice. Somewhere in between? Check 3 inch (76.2 mm) for narrower fronts. Not sure which spacing you need? Book a free design consultation with Kayla's team.
