Steps

1

Find the ideal position

Handle positioning is largely a personal preference. Some like their handles vertical, whilst others prefer them horizontal.

2

Mark the position

Take your tape measure, and measure from the top of the door or drawer to where you want the first hole. Mark with a horizontal line and then repeat with the second hole. Make sure these markings line up with the exact centre of where the hole needs to be.

With your set square mark the measurement from the edge of the door. Run your set square down to your marked handle position and mark with a vertical line to the position of the holes. If done right, the horizontal and vertical marks should intersect at the exact drilling point.

3

Drill and fix into position

Double check your measurements before you begin. Use a small drill bit, only slightly larger than the screws to make the hole, then screw everything into place with a screwdriver. Repeat until all handles are fixed into place.
