Choosing the Right Grips for Your Doors

Okay, I never thought I'd care this much about what I grab to open a door, but here we are. I’m redoing a couple rooms and now I’m stuck on picking out, uh, handles? Knobs? Levers? There’s way too many options. Anyone have a favorite style or brand that actually holds up over time (and doesn’t look super dated in a year)? Bonus points if they’re easy to clean—my kids are sticky monsters. Any regrets or things you wish you’d known before swapping yours out?

CHOOSING THE RIGHT GRIPS FOR YOUR DOORS

Mixing finishes in different rooms is such a clever way to keep things interesting without it feeling chaotic. I totally get the appeal of all black—super sleek—but yeah, it can start to feel a bit cold if there’s nothing to break it up. Sometimes I’ll throw in a warm brass or even just a wooden accent somewhere else and suddenly the whole vibe shifts. It’s wild how much those little details matter. Don’t be afraid to experiment, honestly... some of my favorite projects happened when I took a risk with hardware choices.
