The list of items needed can add up quickly, so we narrowed down the top items kitchen hardware items we get requested! Take time to start prioritizing your favorites to determine which will be essential to your new space. All these products (and more!) are provided by our parent company, HGH Hardware Supply.



Docking Drawer

Not only does everyone want an abundance of outlets, we want them to be both accessible and out of the way. Docking Drawer has changed the game by creating charging and powering stations inside your drawer. Simple to install into any drawer type, the outlet is designed to eliminate surface clutter and create more functional space. Say hello to your counter space again! This is a must have item for your bedside table too.





Under Counter Lighting

Under counter lighting is a must have addition to the kitchen. Placing lights under cabinets transforms the atmosphere of the room by putting the light where you need it. Now you can also use dimmers, motion sensors, and remote controls, to more precisely control your under counter lighting. Coming soon, we will also have Tresco’s Luniform technology that creates a smooth look on the counter without using filters or covers.





Utensil drawer organizer

Have you ever bought a utensil organizer that didn’t fit or maximize the space? Our wooden trimmable drawer insert can be cut to your size drawer exactly. It is by far one of our most popular drawer inserts. Looking for more? Browse the rest of our drawer inserts here.

Soft close hinges and drawer slides

Nothing can improve your everyday experience in the kitchen more than soft close hinges and drawer slides. Every operation of your cabinets and drawers should be smooth and quiet! Make sure to ask your cabinet builder for soft close. It’s a choice that you won’t regret!
