The Edge Straight is a profile handle that mounts along the edge of your cabinet doors and drawers. This antique brass version from Blum offers a clean linear grip that sits flush with the door edge, creating an uninterrupted line across your cabinetry.

Where It Fits

This handle works on standard kitchen doors between 16mm and 22mm thick, making it suitable for most bespoke kitchen projects. The antique brass finish complements both traditional and contemporary designs, particularly where you want hardware that feels substantial without dominating the space.

How It Works

You grip the handle from underneath, using the full width of the profile. At 41mm wide and 18mm high, it provides a comfortable hold for doors and drawers of all sizes. The handle fixes with screws on 20mm centres, hidden within the profile itself.

Why It Matters

Edge-mounted handles like this create a different relationship with your kitchen. Rather than protruding into the space, they follow the door's natural line. This means you can open cabinets in tighter spaces without the handle catching, and the visual effect is more integrated than traditional knobs or pulls.

Design Consideration

The profile handle works particularly well on wider doors and drawer fronts where the linear grip makes sense. On very narrow doors, the proportion may feel heavy. The antique brass finish will develop character over time, which suits kitchens where you want the hardware to feel lived-in rather than pristine.

Build Quality

The handle is machined from aluminium with an antique brass finish. Blum backs this with a lifetime guarantee, reflecting the robust construction. The screw fixings are included, and the mounting system is designed for straightforward installation on standard door thicknesses.

Options

This 40mm length suits smaller doors and drawers. The Edge Straight system is available in multiple lengths and finishes, allowing you to maintain consistency across different door sizes in your kitchen.
