Grace or Luna: short answer

Grace HL-009 is worth buying if you need an elongated wooden handle that continues the facade geometry and forms a calm horizontal or vertical line. The compact Grace measures 156 × 30 × 20 × 64 mm, the long one — 284 × 30 × 20 × 192 mm. The first fits drawers, cabinets, and small doors, the second fits tall cabinets, furniture columns, and wide facades. Luna HL-005 is better to choose if the handle should become an independent sculptural accent. Its size is 130 × 32 × 16 mm, and the asymmetrical profile resembles a crescent moon. Grace supports the furniture architecture, Luna shapes its character.

Buy profile wooden handle Grace HL-009 Buy sculptural handle Luna HL-005 Buy wooden furniture handles Buy Grace HL-009M with coating Buy ready-made Luna HL-005M

Grace 156 mm — 156 × 30 × 20 × 64 mm. Parameter D 64 mm is important when checking mounting distance and old holes.

Grace 284 mm — 284 × 30 × 20 × 192 mm. The extended version is suitable for wide drawers and tall fronts.

Luna — 130 × 32 × 16 mm. The compact asymmetrical shape works as a noticeable wooden bracket.

Materials of both models are beech or oak. Surface preparation — "Prestige" sanding.

Grace and Luna come without a finish coating. The color and protective system are selected separately for the material and furniture.

Fasteners are included with both models. The suitability of the screws for the specific thickness of the facade must be checked before installation.

It is easier to buy a wooden furniture handle when the buyer decides in advance whether the hardware should support the facade or become the main decorative element. Grace and Luna cannot be considered two almost identical brackets. They differ in length, geometry, perception, and behavior on a series of identical doors.

Grace draws a line. In the kitchen, it helps to unify a row of drawers; on a tall cabinet, it emphasizes the vertical; on a facade with an active wood texture, it maintains calmness. Two sizes allow repeating the same model on furniture of different scales without changing the overall language.

Luna, on the other hand, attracts attention with its curve. It does not blend into the plane and can replace an additional overlay on a smooth facade. This handle is especially expressive on a chest of drawers, nightstand, or a standalone cabinet where the hardware should be noticeable.

For a linear solution, you can choose Grace with a length of 156 mm or buy long Grace 284 mm. For an accent form — asymmetric wooden Luna handle. If both options do not match the furniture, it is better to open the catalog of unpainted handles and compare other forms.

Grace as a wooden alternative to profile aesthetics

Grace is considered in STAVROS materials alongside the Gola topic. This does not imply full structural interchangeability with the aluminum built-in profile. Grace is an overlay wooden handle with its own installation drawing. Before ordering, it is useful to study, how to choose a profile handle for the kitchen.

Luna as a curved bracket

Luna has an asymmetrical profile resembling a crescent moon. It is not perceived as a straight line: the eye immediately notices the curve and direction. On paired doors, the orientation needs to be thought out in advance.

Function remains the main priority

A beautiful shape should not interfere with opening. For Grace, the length, mounting distance, and finger position are checked. For Luna, the direction, protrusion, and free space around the curve are considered.

Surface-mounted installation

Both models are attached to the facade as separate handles. Grace should not be considered a groove profile just because of its similarity to Gola. The facade and holes are prepared according to the drawing of the specific model.

Wood requires finishing

Grace and Luna are sold without a final coating. Beech and oak can be combined with the facade in different ways, but the finishing system must match the material and usage conditions.

Confirmed characteristics of Grace and Luna

Parameter D for Grace is confirmed as 64 and 192 mm. For Luna, the size 130 × 32 × 16 mm is indicated on the card, but the specific interpretation of each letter must be checked against the product diagram. It cannot be automatically assumed that 16 mm is the center distance or screw length.

Grace and Luna: direct comparison by scenarios

Why Grace and Luna solve different design tasks

The handle affects the front no less than a molding or overlay. It repeats on every opening element, comes into view, and is used daily. Therefore, the choice between Grace and Luna determines not only the ease of grip but also the character of the entire furniture.

Grace forms a line

The elongated shape supports horizontal and vertical axes. In the kitchen, several Grace can create a continuous row. On a tall cabinet, the long version helps visually elongate the door. The handle does not require a separate decorative motif.

Luna forms an object

The asymmetrical curve is perceived as a small sculpture. Even a single Luna stands out on a smooth facade. If placed on every drawer of a large chest, the furniture gains a strong repetition of organic form.

The same material does not make the impression the same

Beech or oak can be chosen for both models, but the shape changes the perception of the wood. On Grace, the fibers stretch along the line. On Luna, the pattern runs through the curve and emphasizes the volume.

The same finish does not erase the differences

White enamel will make both handles part of a monochrome facade, but Grace will remain linear, Luna sculptural. Dark tinting enhances the volume of Luna and emphasizes the length of Grace.

The number of handles enhances the character

One Luna on a cabinet looks delicate. Twelve Luna in the kitchen create an active decorative rhythm. One Grace may seem simple, but a series forms a neat architecture of facades.

Grace 156 mm for drawers and small facades

The compact version of Grace measures 156 × 30 × 20 × 64 mm. The 156 mm length makes it more noticeable than a standard small bracket, but allows it to be used on cabinets, drawers, and hinged fronts. The mounting parameter D 64 mm is especially important when replacing old hardware.

Wooden drawer handle

On the middle drawer, Grace emphasizes the horizontal line and helps open the front by the wide line. Before installation, check whether the handle is centered and not too close to the edges. To choose, you can choose Grace with a length of 156 mm.

Cabinet and bedside table

The 156 mm Grace looks restrained and does not turn a small piece into a decorative object. It suits furniture where the focus remains on the front, legs, or body material.

Upper kitchen cabinet

The compact Grace can be placed horizontally near the bottom edge of the door or vertically on the side after checking convenience. It is useful to read, how to choose a handle for an upper kitchen cabinet.

Small cabinet door

The handle takes up enough space for a confident grip, but does not stretch across most of the front. It is especially suitable for narrow sections where 284 mm would look excessive.

Series of identical drawers

Grace 156 mm is easy to repeat. It is important to maintain the same height and identical indents. If the width of the drawers differs, check whether the handle looks too long on the narrowest one.

Old holes

Parameter D 64 mm may match the existing center distance, but this needs to be confirmed by the diagram and the actual product. A matching number does not guarantee that Grace will cover the trace of the old handle.

Grace 284 mm for tall cabinets and furniture columns

The long Grace has dimensions 284 × 30 × 20 × 192 mm. It is designed for a larger scale and creates a noticeable line. This handle is especially useful on a tall cabinet, furniture column, and wide lower drawer.

Vertical handle for cabinet

Grace 284 mm supports the door height and helps connect several columns. It should be placed according to a single rule: the same height from the floor, the same indent from the edge, and the same orientation.

Wide kitchen drawer

The long handle emphasizes the horizontal line and visually unifies the facade. It should not be chosen just because the drawer is heavy: convenience and design are determined not by length alone. Check the fastening, facade thickness, and actual grip.

Tall furniture column

On a column for appliances or storage, Grace 284 mm creates a modern vertical line. It can be placed closer to the edge or along the design axis. It is necessary to check whether the handle intersects with the adjacent facade when opening.

Wardrobe in the hallway

The long wooden handle is clearly visible on the large facade and can replace a metal bracket. In the passage area, it is especially important to check the protrusion and the door opening to the wall.

Library

On tall doors, Grace 284 mm looks calmer than the sculptural Luna and does not compete with books, glass, and wood texture. For such a scenario, you can buy long Grace 284 mm.

Mounting distance 192 mm

This parameter needs to be checked when drilling and replacing an old handle. A cardboard template should show not only the total length of 284 mm, but also the attachment points. An error is more noticeable on a long handle.

Luna 130 mm as an independent accent

Luna has dimensions of 130 × 32 × 16 mm. It is more compact than Grace, but due to its curve, it looks more expressive. This handle is suitable for furniture where a smooth facade needs a distinctive detail, and an additional decorative overlay is not planned.

Accent chest of drawers

On three or four drawers, Luna creates a crescent repeat. The orientation must be chosen in advance: the same on all drawers or mirrored on the sides. For ordering, you can choose an accent handle for the dresser.

Bedside table

One Luna turns a small facade into a finished object. It is especially expressive on a solid-colored door or drawer. You need to check if the curve takes up too much of the usable area.

Wardrobe

Luna can be used on one or two doors. On paired doors, the shape should either face each other or repeat in the same direction. It is useful to study how to choose a handle for a swing wardrobe.

Smooth kitchen facade

In the kitchen, Luna works as a noticeable detail. If there are many facades, the entire system will become more decorative. For a restrained kitchen, it can be left only on a sideboard, tall cabinet, or island.

Designer furniture

The organic shape suits chests of drawers, cabinets, and wardrobes with soft corners, rounded legs, and smooth lines. On strict geometric furniture, Luna creates a deliberate contrast.

Size 130 mm

It suits a medium facade but does not replace verification. On a very wide drawer, Luna looks like a small central mark; on a narrow door, it can occupy a significant part of the surface.

Grace for upper kitchen cabinets

The upper row of the kitchen requires a handle that is easy to find by hand and does not overload the facades at eye level. Grace suits this scenario due to its elongated shape and two sizes. The compact version is more often used, but the long one may be appropriate on a wide lift-up facade after checking the design.

Horizontal position at the bottom edge

The handle is placed where it is comfortable to reach. The single Grace row emphasizes the bottom line of wall cabinets and helps connect different sections. A universal offset cannot be assigned: it depends on the size of the facade, the hinge, adjacent furniture, and the height of users.

Vertical position at the edge

On hinged doors, Grace can be installed vertically. This method emphasizes height and frees up the center of the facade. The position must be checked on both sides of the kitchen to prevent handles from colliding when opening adjacent doors.

Grace 156 mm for small sections

The compact option is easier to repeat on narrow doors. It does not take up most of the facade and maintains a calm appearance. For this scenario, you can select in the card a wooden handle for the upper kitchen cabinet.

Grace 284 mm for wide facades

A long handle can support a large lift-up facade, but convenience depends on the mechanism and grip location. It cannot be assumed that greater length automatically makes opening easier.

Connection with lower drawers

One model in two sizes helps create a unified set: Grace 156 mm on upper doors, 284 mm on wide lower drawers and columns. The sizes differ, but the shape remains common.

Grace for wide lower drawers

One long handle instead of two short ones

Grace 284 mm can form a solid line in the center of the drawer. However, the solution depends on the width and construction of the front. On a very wide heavy drawer, two grip points may be provided by the design; the length of one handle does not replace engineering verification.

Multiple drawers in one row

Handles must be at the same height and parallel. Even a slight misalignment is noticeable because Grace creates a long straight line. Marking is done with a template, not by individual measurements on each front.

Fronts of different widths

On narrow drawers Grace 156 mm, on wide ones — 284 mm. This scheme keeps one model and changes the scale. Before ordering, it is useful to make paper templates of both sizes and lay them out across the entire kitchen.

Handle near appliances

The long Grace should not bump into the adjacent door, wall, or protruding appliance body. Check the trajectory of all elements when fully opened.

Handle for the island

On the kitchen island, the hardware is visible from all sides. Grace supports calm geometry and argues less with a stone or wooden countertop. In the passage, you need to check the protrusion and the distance to the chairs.

Luna for the dresser

A dresser is one of the best scenarios for Luna, because several identical drawers create a clear repetition. The curve can be directed in one direction, alternate, or form a mirror pair, but the scheme must be deliberate.

All handles in one direction

This option creates movement across the entire facade. It suits an asymmetrical modern dresser. A slight rotation of one handle will be noticeable, so marking and tightening must be precise.

Mirror arrangement

If there are two Luna handles on each wide drawer, they can be turned towards each other. The pair forms a decorative bracket and emphasizes the center. You need to check if there is enough space for hands between the handles.

One Luna in the center

On the middle drawer, one element looks like a sculptural sign. For a heavy wide drawer, convenience is assessed separately. You cannot choose one handle just for symmetry if the design requires a different grip.

Different box sizes

Luna has one confirmed size. On lower wide fronts it may look more compact than on upper ones. If a uniform scale is needed, Grace with two options is often more convenient.

Chest of drawers with active decor

If the fronts are already decorated with moldings or overlays, Luna can create excessive density. It is useful to read, how to combine the handle with the facade decor.

Luna for a hinged wardrobe

Paired doors

The curve can be directed towards the center, away from the center, or equally. The first option emphasizes the pair, the second opens the composition outward, the third creates movement in one direction. The rule is fixed on the sketch.

Single door

On a tall cabinet, Luna becomes a noticeable accent. You need to choose the installation height and direction so that the shape looks natural and is convenient for the user.

Tall cabinet

The 130 mm size may seem small on a large door. This is acceptable if a compact sign is needed. For a strong vertical line, Grace 284 mm is more suitable.

Wardrobe in the bedroom

Luna supports the smooth shapes of the bed, nightstands, and lamps. On a strict facade, it softens the geometry. Beech under enamel allows combining the handle with the color of the wardrobe, while oak preserves the texture.

Wardrobe in the hallway

The asymmetrical handle attracts attention in the passage area. It is necessary to check whether it catches on clothing or touches the wall when opening. For a general selection, it is useful to study selection of handles for wardrobe, dresser, and kitchen.

What to choose for a smooth facade

A smooth surface does not dictate a single solution. Grace maintains a minimalist character and emphasizes proportions. Luna adds sculpture and can replace additional decor. The choice depends on the role of the hardware.

The facade should remain calm

Grace is preferable. It reads as a line, not a separate figure. In the color of the facade, the handle becomes even more restrained.

The facade lacks character

Luna creates volume without moldings or overlays. On a monochrome surface, the curve is well read in side light.

Many identical doors

Grace is easier to repeat. Luna can create a strong rhythm that needs to be checked on the visualization of the entire wall.

One accent item

For a separate chest of drawers, bedside table or cabinet, Luna is often more interesting. It turns hardware into part of the design and helps distinguish the item from the main furniture.

Furniture for custom finishing

Both models are sold without coating. You can choose beech or oak and match the handles to the project. The material and finish must be uniformly coordinated across the entire batch.

Which handle suits an active wood texture

Grace does not overlap the pattern

A long simple shape repeats the direction of the fibers and competes less with expressive veneer or solid wood. If the facade already has a strong natural pattern, Grace is usually safer.

Luna enhances the organic character

The curve can support the natural texture, especially in oak. But on a too busy facade, two focal points appear: the wood grain and the sculptural handle.

Wood species contrast

An oak handle on a painted facade becomes more noticeable. A beech handle under enamel can blend into the color. It cannot be assumed that one species is always better: the decision depends on the desired contrast.

Grain direction

On Grace, it visually stretches along the handle. On Luna, it passes through the curve. Paired oak handles are best laid out before finishing and sorted by shade.

Trial fitting

Hold the unfinished sample against the facade and look at it in daylight. Then use a paint swatch or a control handle. The screen does not convey the real combination of wood.

Horizontal installation of Grace

On a drawer

The handle is usually positioned along the central horizontal axis or along a line specified by the design. On multiple drawers, the height must be consistent. A template with 64 or 192 mm holes reduces the risk of misalignment.

On the hinged facade

Grace can be placed closer to the bottom edge, but not too close to the edge. Fingers should fit freely under the handle, and the fasteners should be in a strong area.

On a two-door cabinet

Two horizontal Graces create a pair, but may approach the central gap. Check that hands do not collide and that the handles do not visually overlap each other.

On a wide facade

Grace 284 mm emphasizes the width. If the facade is very long, the handle may still look small. The need for two handles is determined by the design and convenience.

Vertical installation of Grace

On a tall column

Grace 284 mm forms a long vertical line and helps visually elongate the facade. All handles on adjacent columns must have the same bottom or top mark.

On a swing cabinet

Place the handle near the free edge of the door. Check the distance to the adjacent door and the full opening angle. The long Grace should not touch the wall.

On a narrow door

Grace 156 mm may be more proportional. The long version 284 mm can occupy most of the height of a small facade.

On a refrigeration column

Size and mounting depend on the facade and mechanism. Grace cannot be assigned without checking the furniture manufacturer's design. The wooden handle should not be used as a replacement for the standard system without approval.

Single vertical line

On a group of cabinets, Grace creates a calm grid. This is especially useful in a minimalist kitchen or wardrobe where no additional decorative accents are needed.

How to orient Luna on paired doors

Towards each other

The curves form a closed pair and emphasize the center. This option looks symmetrical and suits a two-door cabinet.

From the center

Handles open the composition outward. This technique is suitable for a wide cabinet or two nightstands on either side of the bed.

In one direction

Movement appears across the entire furniture. This option is less symmetrical and requires a conscious modern design.

Vertical orientation

Luna can be rotated, but you need to check the grip comfort and the curve's character. Not all positions are equally natural. Before drilling, hold the handle or an accurate template.

Error protection

Mark the top of each handle on the drawing. The installer should not decide the direction separately for each door. Asymmetry requires a single rule.

Can Grace and Luna be combined in one room

Combination is possible if the models share functions. Grace can decorate the main kitchen or dressing room, and Luna a separate chest of drawers, sideboard, or nightstand. Then the linear and sculptural forms do not compete on the same facade field.

Grace on built-in furniture, Luna on freestanding

This approach helps distinguish objects. Built-in cabinets get a calm architecture, a separate chest of drawers gets an expressive character. Material and finish can unify different models.

Grace in the kitchen, Luna on the sideboard

The main set maintains a strict row, while the sideboard becomes an accent. If the furniture stands nearby, it is useful to make handles from the same species or tie them with color.

Grace on large facades, Luna on small ones

The scheme is possible, but not always successful. The difference in shapes should be explained by purpose. Random alternation in one kitchen creates the feeling of two mismatched sets.

One model within one item

On one cabinet or chest of drawers, it is better not to mix Grace and Luna without a clear functional reason. Facades of the same type should have one system.

Checking the overall composition

Place paper templates on all facades or create a visualization. It is important to see not two handles next to each other on a table, but all the furniture in the room.

Beech under enamel

Beech is suitable for a buyer who wants a covering color and a uniform look with the facade. Grace and Luna from beech can be finished in the project system, but specific materials and technology are chosen taking into account the furniture and usage conditions.

Grace beech

In the color of the facade, it almost dissolves, leaving only a shadow and a line. Contrasting enamel, on the contrary, emphasizes the length. In the kitchen, it is useful to make a test coating on one handle or sample.

Luna beech

Even in the color of the facade, the curve is preserved due to chiaroscuro. A contrasting color makes the crescent even more noticeable. For an accent chest of drawers, this can be an advantage.

Preparation "Prestige"

Sanding is confirmed for both models. Before finishing, the surface is inspected, dusted, and complex areas are checked. Sanding cannot be considered a ready protective coating.

Layer thickness

The covering system should not flood the edges and change the grip. On Luna, it is especially important to preserve the smooth curve, on Grace, the clear long line.

Same batch

It is better to finish all handles of one item simultaneously. Different batches of enamel may differ in shade and gloss. Keep a control sample.

Oak under tinting

Oak is chosen for its visible wood grain. It makes the hardware noticeable even without a contrasting color. Grace shows long fibers, Luna shows a complex pattern on the curve.

Grace in oak

On a natural wood facade, it follows the grain direction and does not create a separate sculptural motif. For ordering, you can choose Grace in beech or oak.

Luna in oak

The curve emphasizes the natural character of the material. For a solid-color facade, such a handle becomes especially expressive. In the product card, you can order Luna in oak.

Texture differences

Two oak handles do not have to have the same pattern. For paired facades, it is better to sort them by shade before finishing and installation.

Staining

It changes color but retains texture. A too dark composition can hide Luna's fine transitions, and on Grace it can enhance the long line. A test sample is needed.

Transparent finish

It retains the natural color, but the specific system and gloss are not confirmed in the SEO scheme. They are selected separately and tested on a sample.

Unpainted handle or model M with coating

Grace HL-009 and Luna HL-005 are supplied without finish. This is convenient for custom finishing but requires time and technological discipline. If self-painting is not needed, consider M versions with ready coating.

When to choose unpainted Grace

A precise facade color, oak tint, or unified finish with furniture is needed. The buyer controls the result but must organize the test and drying.

When to choose Grace HL-009M

For a ready solution, you can Buy Grace HL-009M with coating. This model is also available in sizes 156 and 284 mm. Current colors and material are checked in the card.

When to choose unpainted Luna

A custom shade or visible oak texture is needed. The unpainted version allows linking the crescent to a specific facade.

When to choose Luna HL-005M

If the finishing stage needs to be excluded, you can Buy ready-made Luna HL-005M. Before ordering, check the color and furniture match against a real sample.

Why you should not mix versions without checking

It is difficult to replicate the factory shade and gloss on your own. If some handles are M and some are hand-painted, the difference may be noticeable on the same facade. Choose one system for the set.

How to check the mounting distance

Grace has confirmed parameters D 64 and 192 mm. For the buyer, this is a key technical indicator when drilling. Luna requires checking the card diagram because the 16 mm size cannot be automatically interpreted as the center distance.

Do not measure only the total length

A handle of 156 mm does not mean holes at a distance of 156 mm. For Grace, they correspond to the 64 mm parameter. For 284 mm — 192 mm. The template should reflect both values.

Check the drawing

The letters A, B, C, and D only make sense together with the diagram. Do not transfer the designation from one card to another. Before drilling, print the drawing or use the actual handle.

Make a rigid template

For a series of facades, a plate with precisely marked holes and a stop from the edge is convenient. It helps to repeat the height and center distance. The template is checked on a test piece.

Measure the thickness of the facade

The complete fasteners are included in the price, but the screw length must match the specific door. Too

Can old holes be used

Grace 64 mm

If the previous bracket had the same center distance, the holes may fit. But you need to check the diameter, condition, and location. The total length of the new handle may not cover the old marks.

Grace 192 mm

The 192 mm match is convenient for replacement, but does not guarantee that the facade will withstand the new handle or that the trace of the old hardware will be hidden. Fitting is mandatory.

Luna

Without confirmation of the diagram, no conclusion can be drawn about the alignment of the holes. First, get the handle and check the mounting points.

Old holes are damaged

A broken base does not ensure reliability. It is repaired before installation. The new handle should not be used as a disguise for a structural problem.

Replacing a push-button handle or bracket

A button has one point, a bracket usually has two. Grace and Luna cannot be installed on an old single hole without additional work. Extra points are repaired and finished.

How to calculate the number of handles

Count facades, not items

One cabinet may have four doors and three drawers. Each position is marked separately. Internal drawers and mezzanines are often forgotten.

Separate Grace dimensions

In the list, separately specify 156 and 284 mm. For example, eight compact handles for upper cabinets, four long ones for lower drawers, and two for columns.

Count Luna separately

If Luna is used only on a buffet or dresser, do not mix its count with Grace. Specify the orientation and location of each handle.

Wide drawer with two handles

The quantity is determined by the design and convenience. You cannot automatically install one long Grace or two Luna based solely on appearance.

Spare copy

For a large set, one or more spare handles can be a reasonable reserve for trial finishing and repairs. The size of the reserve depends on the volume and the possibility of reordering.

Save the list

Write down the article number, size, material, finish, and installation location. This will help with repurchasing and furniture maintenance.

How to choose a handle for a passage area

Hallway

The handle should not catch on clothing. Grace creates a more direct line, Luna has a pronounced curve. Check the passage with the cabinet door open.

Kitchen island

The hardware is located near chairs and the passage. The overall depth and shape must be safe for movement. You cannot choose based solely on the frontal view.

Narrow hallway

On a cabinet against the wall, a long vertical Grace may be more convenient if it does not protrude into the passage. Luna requires checking the farthest point of the curve.

Door near the wall

When fully opened, the handle should not hit the wall. Install a limiter or change the position only after checking the entire structure.

Furniture for a children's room

The mold must be well secured, without play. The handle is not a step or a toy. Periodically check the fasteners and coating.

Practical choice for specific situations

Need a sleek handle for a minimalist kitchen

Grace fits better. Its elongated shape supports the geometry of the facades and does not require additional decorative elements. For upper cabinets, 156 mm can be used; for wide drawers and columns, 284 mm. Before ordering, check the layout of the entire kitchen.

Need a distinctive handle for a single dresser

Luna creates an accent and works well on smooth facades. Multiple handles must have the same orientation. If the dresser is already decorated with overlays, first check if there will be too much decor.

Need to design a tall cabinet

Grace 284 mm is more logical for a long vertical. Luna can be used as a compact sculptural sign, but on a tall door it will appear noticeably smaller.

You need to update old furniture

First measure the existing holes. Grace 64 or 192 mm may match the previous bracket. For Luna, the mounting scheme is checked separately. If the holes are damaged, the facade is repaired before installation.

Need a handle in the color of the facade

Choose bare beech and do a trial opaque finish, or consider ready-made M. Grace models where the facade color becomes calm, while Luna retains its sculptural quality through shadow.

Visible wood grain is needed

Consider oak. Grace emphasizes the grain direction, Luna shows it on curves. Tinting is tested on a sample.

One model must be used on all furniture

Grace is more practical due to two sizes. Luna has one confirmed length of 130 mm and may look different on small and large facades.

Built-in and freestanding furniture need to be separated

Grace can be left on the kitchen and cabinets, Luna on the dresser or sideboard. One wood species or a common color will help maintain the connection.

What to buy together with Grace or Luna

The main purchase is the handle itself and the required number of pieces. Additionally, the buyer may need ready-made versions with coating, other sizes of wooden handles, and expert materials on choosing the installation location. Random components without a confirmed URL are not added to the article.

How not to confuse Grace and Luna with similar solutions

Grace and the built-in Gola system

Grace is an overlay wooden handle. Gola is a profile system of a different design. The similarity relates to the aesthetics of a long line, not to the installation method. One option cannot be replaced by the other without reworking the facade.

Grace 156 and Grace 284

This is not a single handle with arbitrary cutting. The sizes have different mounting parameters: 64 and 192 mm. You cannot shorten the long version yourself.

Grace HL-009 and Grace HL-009M

The first one comes without coating, the second has ready-made color options. The dimensions are the same, but the finish and product card are different.

Luna HL-005 and Luna HL-005M

The unpainted Luna is intended for a custom finish. The M model is chosen when a ready color is needed. Do not expect coating on the basic HL-005.

Luna and a regular straight handle

A straight handle creates a neutral line. Luna has an asymmetrical curve and requires orientation. On a series of facades, the difference becomes especially noticeable.

Handle and decorative overlay

Luna can replace a separate accent, but remains a fitting for opening. The decorative overlay is not designed for constant grip. Do not use a random carved piece as a handle.

Mistakes when buying Grace

Choosing size only by facade length

You need to consider the mounting distance, grip space, and free edges. Grace 284 mm does not automatically fit every wide drawer.

Considering Grace a full-fledged Gola

It does not integrate into the facade like a metal profile. Installation is performed using the overlay handle card.

Mixing 156 and 284 mm without a system

Dimensions must match the facade groups. Random alternation disrupts the uniform row.

Ignore D 64 and 192 mm

The total length is not equal to the center distance. An error during drilling will ruin the facade.

Putting a long Grace on a small door

The handle may approach the edges and visually overwhelm the facade. Use a template.

Painting after installation without protection

Finish may get on the facade and fasteners. The finishing sequence is chosen in advance.

Errors when purchasing Luna

Not planning the orientation

On double doors, a random orientation looks like an installation error. The layout is fixed before drilling.

Use on every facade without visualization

One Luna looks expressive, a large series can overload the furniture. A general layout is needed.

Consider 130 mm as a universal size

On a small cabinet, the handle is large; on a tall cabinet, it's compact. The size is always compared to the facade.

Place next to active threading

Two complex accents compete. Leave Luna on a smooth surface or simplify the adjacent decor.

Not checking the side protrusion

The curve may approach a wall or passage. Look at the handle from the side and check the opening.

Expect ready-made coating

HL-005 is sold without finish. For the finished version, HL-005M is needed.

Grace and Luna in commercial interiors

In a salon, boutique, office, or hotel room, the choice of handle affects not only the appearance but also repeatability, maintenance, and the ability to quickly replace it. Grace is more convenient where furniture should maintain a calm, unified line across a large number of facades. Luna is suitable for accent chests, counters, and freestanding cabinets that should stand out from the main storage system.

Showroom and salon

Grace helps assemble a long row of cabinets without unnecessary visual noise. Luna can be used on a central display case or cabinet to highlight an important area.

Hotel room

On a built-in wardrobe, Grace is easier to replicate in series, while Luna is appropriate on a bedside table or minibar. For maintenance, it is useful to keep spare handles from the same batch.

Cabinet

Oak Grace supports a strict library and desk. Luna adds a soft accent to a separate chest. In both cases, information about the finish and fasteners should be preserved for future repairs.

Serial furniture

When ordering dozens of identical facades, one control handle and a mounting template reduce the risk of marking errors. For Luna, the orientation is additionally fixed; for Grace, the size is 156 or 284 mm.

Control sample and post-installation care

For a large kitchen, dressing room, or series of cabinets, it is useful to keep one handle as a reference. On the packaging or a separate card, the article number, size, material, finish, and order date are recorded. Such a sample helps compare future reorders and quickly understand which model is installed on the furniture.

Control Grace

If both sizes are used in the project, store the information separately: HL-009 156 mm with parameter D 64 mm and HL-009 284 mm with parameter D 192 mm. External similarity should not lead to errors when repurchasing.

Luna Control

On the card, indicate the bend orientation on paired doors. This is especially important if a single handle is replaced or a new piece of furniture is added after several years.

Coating Care

Wipe handles with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Specific cleaning agents depend on the enamel, tint, or clear finish. Moisture should not remain in the connection points with the front.

Checking the fastening

Periodically check for play. If the handle starts to move, do not tighten the screw until the wood is damaged. First, check the condition of the fasteners, holes, and the back side of the front.

Finish Repair

Local damage is easier to repair when data on the composition and shade is preserved. The description "dark oak" or "white matte" is insufficient for an exact match.

Re-order

Before re-purchasing, open the card again and check the dimensions, materials, and condition of the item. Even a saved reference does not replace verifying the current parameters.

How to Buy Grace or Luna at STAVROS

Before ordering, start with full-size templates. For Grace, make two rectangular outlines 156 and 284 mm long with marked mounting distances of 64 and 192 mm. For Luna, prepare a template 130 × 32 mm and separately mark the bend direction. Apply them to each type of front, not just one sample.

If you need a calm profile line, open the card and check the dimensions of Grace HL-009. Choose 156 or 284 mm, beech or oak, then check the mounting diagram and quantity. If the handle should be an accent, go to Luna and check the specifications of Luna HL-005.

For custom painting, base models without coating are suitable. If the finishing stage is not planned, compare Grace HL-009M and Luna HL-005M. The finished color should be checked next to the actual facade, because the screen does not accurately convey the shade and gloss.

After selection, create a list: model, size, material, finish, orientation, quantity, and installation location. If Grace and Luna are used in the same interior, separate them by furniture and do not mix them accidentally. Ordering from STAVROS is convenient because the buyer works with specific cards, exact dimensions, and confirmed configuration, rather than selecting similar handles only by photo.
