When you're renovating a room as important as the kitchen, it can be easy to focus on the big stuff—the paint colors, the cabinetry, the appliances, and so on. But don't forget to take note of the small yet essential details, too, such as kitchen hardware. Kitchen hardware can range from drawer knobs to cabinet hinges, and while these may seem like minor concerns, the look and feel of kitchen hardware can make a huge difference in the room's overall style and function.

"Kitchen cabinet hardware is a high-touch surface and gets a tremendous amount of use," says MA Allen, founder of interior design company MA Allen Interiors. Because of this, it's important to opt for pieces that aren't just attractive, but durable and reliable.

Below, we've rounded up the best retailers you can shop for kitchen hardware, all of which feature a wide variety of products in all different price ranges and styles. Peruse each site on this list to find the options that work best for your kitchen's specific needs.

Who it's for: People who want a large variety of mid-priced hardware.

Widely known as one of the best places to buy hardware of all kinds, Home Depot should undoubtedly be on your radar for all your kitchen needs. You can scroll through the many smaller items like cabinet knobs and drawer pulls, or focus on larger types of hardware like faucets or sinks, and find high-quality options at a wide range of prices, sizes, and finishes.

One of the best aspects of Home Depot is that the retailer offers both next-day delivery and free two-day delivery, so if you find a product you like, you can have it in your home nearly immediately afterwards. And of course, if you're near a physical store, you can order the part online and pick it up in person right away.

Similarly to Home Depot, Lowe's features a huge selection of kitchen hardware (including many picks from its own top-rated exclusive brands), with everything from cabinet hinges to drawer pulls available on both online and in-store. Many products include either free delivery or free in-store pickup, too (or sometimes even both!), making the shopping experience as stress-free as it gets.

Price-wise, Lowe's has a wide range of options and is relatively relaxed about returns, so if you order an item you're not happy with, you can usually send it back for a replacement. But with so many specific categories and the site's cabinet hardware buying guide, it's unlikely you'll end up with any parts that are less than ideal.

Speaking of prices, Amazon also has a popular "Today's Deals" section that lets you see which items are currently on sale, so make sure to check that out if you want to stay within a certain budget while shopping. And don't forget that free Prime shipping!

While there are many types of material for hardware you can choose from, ranging from wood to glass to metal, Allen recommends opting for brass hardware whenever possible. "It's durable enough to stand the test of time," she explains.

"Selecting hardware in a beautiful finish is part of what makes cabinet hardware become jewelry for the home," Allen says. While she personally favors unlacquered brass finishes "that patina over time and with use," she recommends that people who prefer "a perfect untarnished look" opt instead for hardware with a PVD finish (meaning the finish is baked in). For those who enjoy a collected look, Allen recommends mixing and matching different types of metals.

If you're not sure what type of kitchen hardware to focus on, Allen advises first looking closely at the cabinet or drawer in question. "It's important to think about specific pulls and their position on the drawer front," she says. "For example, a cup pull position on the center face of a bottom row drawer is very difficult to access without bending down fully." You can also keep in mind factors like the size of the knob or handle (for example, bigger sizes for people with grasping issues) and the style, since you'll want the pieces to work with the overall decor of your kitchen.

The price of kitchen hardware can vary dramatically depending on the material, size, style, and more, but if you're able to swing it, Allen suggests looking for pieces at the higher end of your budget. "It's worth paying extra for high quality hardware that lasts," she says. "Particularly when dealing with a mix of sizes and appliance pulls, the hardware then has more permanence than, say, knobs on a small bathroom vanity, which can easily be changed out time and time again."
