Clean Cabinet handles, knobs, and hinges

The kitchen is the heart of your home that is in regular use every day, you go there to take your items of daily use, be it a spoon, bowl, plate, or cup. You are also constantly using the kitchen cabinets, and cupboards, and pulling out the drawers to take the required utensils for cooking. Thus there is always a continual use of the kitchen surfaces including the kitchen cabinet knobs, door hinges, soft closers for doors, hydraulic hinges, auto hinges, and drawer pulls making them the most touched and used surfaces at home. With the continuous use of these items, there is a build-up of grease and grime on them, dulling the surface, reducing the shine, and ending up making them look tired, dingy, and dirty.

Everyone would always wish to have shining stainless steel fittings, clean cabinet handles, knobs, and soft close hinges. You would also want the knobs and antique wooden drawer pulls to be clean and well-maintained, which paves the way to enhance the overall look and appeal and ensure that your favourite furniture pieces and fittings such as the sliding door fittings and glass fitting are functional life-long. To help clean the cabinet handles, knobs, door hinges and auto hinges there are some simple cleaning procedures and easy home remedies that you could follow.

For those who prefer to add traditional and rustic themes, the wood hardware does extremely well to add charm and warmth. To continue to maintain the elegance of cabinet handles, knobs, and door hinges you could clean them by spraying and wiping gently with a mild, soapy solution. The next best option to clean the stainless steel fittings and soft close hinges would be to use a diluted mixture of water and white distilled vinegar. Whether you use the soapy solution, or the water and vinegar mix, either way, make sure to wipe and clean dry them without allowing any water to remain, seep in, or settle there for too long, as it could lead to warping and in case of wood could swell and spoil it. A gentle rub with a toothbrush could also do miracles and remove tougher, stubborn stains, again ensuring to completely wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Ceramic, glass knobs, glass fitting, or pulls would appear as if they need high maintenance but in reality, they are also easy to clean. For ceramic hardware just rubbing the hardware surface with a damp cloth would do; however, for glass knobs, glass fitting, a spray with a glass cleaner, or use a newspaper dipped in a mixture of water and vinegar solution to wipe it clean which will also prevent streaking.

When pretty expensive metal hardware is installed it adds a touch of shine and glitz to living spaces, and has become one of the most common options in Indian homes. Metal hardware is mostly used in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen is the place where they tend to accumulate thick stubborn stains and stubborn layers of grime that would not go so easily. To clean kitchen cabinet hardware made of metal you could dismantle the hardware if possible and soak them in a soapy solution either overnight or for a few hours to get rid of all the dirt that has accumulated on it. For copper hardware, you could rub lemon or a mixture of salt and vinegar that will help get rid of grime.
