FOR PANEL WITH MOULDING
ULTIMATE GUIDE: HANDLE PLACEMENT
1️⃣ Standard Tall Panel (2200–2600 mm)
✔ Ergonomic wise
✔ Proportional wise
✔ Golden ratio friendly
Recommended height:
950–1200 mm from finished floor
→ Align to the horizontal center of the moulding
→ Visually calm and easy to use in daily life
2️⃣ Moulding or Door Alignment — Choose One
When panels have decorative moulding:
✅ Align with moulding
→ Best for classic / Parisian / panelled styles✅ Align with adjacent door handle
→ Best for consistency across the room
⚠️ Avoid mixing both in the same elevation
3️⃣ Extra Tall Panel (2700–3500 mm)
✔ Ergonomic wise
✔ Proportional wise
✔ Golden ratio approach
Recommended grip zone:
1100–1250 mm
→ Slightly higher to balance tall proportions
→ Prevents handles from feeling “too low” visually
Before Closet Tip
The most elegant handle position is the one
you don’t notice — but feel immediately right.
We always check:
Panel proportion
Moulding rhythm
User height
Adjacent doors & elevations
Because millimeters matter.
FOR MINIMAL PANEL
1️⃣ Standard Tall Minimal Panel (2200–2600 mm)
✔ Ergonomic wise
✔ Proportional wise
✔ Golden ratio friendly
Recommended handle position:
950–1200 mm from finished floor
Sizing rule (clean & balanced):
Knob: Ø 30 mm or 1× diameter
Pull handle: 2× handle width from panel edge

2️⃣ Alignment Rule (Minimal Edition)
For clean, flat panels with no moulding:
✅ Align with door handle (same elevation line)
→ Best for modern, minimal interiors
→ Creates visual continuity across the space
⚠️ Avoid arbitrary heights — minimal panels expose mistakes instantly
3️⃣ Extra Tall Minimal Panel (2700–3500 mm)
✔ Ergonomic wise
✔ Proportional wise
✔ Golden ratio approach
Recommended grip zone:
1100–1250 mm
