Top Knobs Stainless II Collection

Top Knobs Stainless II Collection cabinet hardware

The Top Knobs Stainless II Collection is the second-generation extension of the brand's solid-stainless hardware line. Most cabinet hardware at this price uses zinc with applied stainless-look finishes. Stainless II carries actual 304-grade stainless construction across the entire pull and knob range. The result is hardware that matches stainless appliances at the metal level rather than at the finish level. Hardware ships from stock from the Branchburg, NJ warehouse within 1-2 business days.

Why solid stainless matters here

Applied stainless-look finishes on zinc-base hardware can read close to real stainless under most lighting. The two metals patina differently over years of daily use. Fingerprints clean off solid stainless without leaving the slight discoloration that plated finishes can show. Stainless II is the brand's answer for kitchens with high-end stainless appliances where the hardware is meant to match indefinitely. The line also stands up to bath humidity better than plated alternatives.

Specifying within Stainless II

The line covers contemporary bar pulls, knobs, and appliance-scale pulls in matched brushed-stainless surface. Brushed satin finish is standard; polished stainless is not part of the line. The cross-section reads slightly cooler than brushed nickel finishes, which is the design intent — Stainless II is meant to sit alongside stainless appliances without fighting them. Confirm drill spacing when specifying as a swap from plated hardware, since solid stainless is heavier than equivalent-size zinc. The line is also a strong pick for high-humidity baths where plated alternatives can show finish drift over years.
