Thread: Draw pulls

Had to do the same on a couple of my drawers. Though I find that some of my house door handles are a bigger problem - they are a turn knob and I occassionally lack the grip to turn them, so maybe I should change them to a handle type.

Den if you own your own then why not a bit of none slip material glued to the knob

I do occassionaly have similar trouble with door handles haven't done this as we are renting

Great idea. I think I might need to do something like that.

Good idea and I think it would help some, however in my case on top of the poor grip I had my wrist fused some years ago (old arther completely stuffed it) and now to turn it I have to do so from the upper arm.

Anyhow I will give your idea a go and slip a rubber sleeve over the handle and see how it goes.

Thanks

probably try a piece of inner tube
