I can't decide how to install the handles... I have the template, but...
Some drawers are 10cm (4 inches), 20cm (8 inches), or 40cm (16 inches)...
I would like to lay the template flat and then use the lowest holes, but then it doesn't fit on the 10cm (4 inches) drawers...
I have chosen extra-wide handles...
Somehow, I'm stuck right now...

IKEA-Experte3 May 2016 20:37So far, I have done it this way: for the narrow drawer in the middle and the others, maintaining the same distance from the top.
You can also start by sticking a few strips of, for example, masking tape and see how the positions look.

Strahlemann-693 May 2016 21:24That’s the supposed problem.
Somehow, I feel the handles are placed too high when I take the center of a 10cm (4 inch) unit. Especially the top ones are somehow harder to grip.
But maybe it’s just a feeling, because if it turns out to be a wrong decision, there will be a HOLE in the nice red glossy front... aaahhhhhhh I just can’t decide...
Using the IKEA catalog pictures as an example, in my layout I see the following...
10cm (4 inch) centered, 20cm (8 inch) and 40cm (16 inch) lower...
Hmm

IKEA-Experte3 May 2016 22:56In the catalog, you hardly see drawers that are 10 cm (4 inches) high. On pages 10/11, the handles are even mounted above the center, exactly as with the taller fronts with frames – in the middle of the frame. Pages 22/23: The distance from the top fits eight times into the 40 cm (16 inches) front, so about 5 cm (2 inches) = half the height of the narrow drawer front.
