Choosing the right bar handle comes down to size and finish
The range includes cabinet bar handles in standard hole centre sizes from 96mm to 416mm, suitable for drawers, cupboard doors, vanities, and built-in furniture. Aluminium bar handles in black provide a lightweight, minimalist option that works especially well with flat-front cabinetry and modern colour palettes. For a slightly more premium look, the Roman-style kitchen bar handles combine a stainless steel bar with zinc die-cast bases in a brushed satin nickel finish.
Gelmar also offers slim strip-style handles for projects where a more understated look is preferred. These work particularly well on narrow drawer fronts, integrated storage, and appliance panels where a lower-profile handle keeps the design streamlined.
Who bar handles are perfect for
Whether you are a homeowner renovating a kitchen, an interior designer specifying fittings for a new build, or a cabinet maker finishing a custom joinery project, Gelmar’s bar handle range gives you a reliable, stylish result that stands up to daily use.
