Trade out dated kitchen and bathroom hardware for a sleek, modern look in your home. If you have knobs, Helgesen suggests replacing them with new knobs or handles in a more current finish and style, such as rubbed bronze or brushed nickel. “If you have handles, make sure to measure the screw placement on the back of the door and buy a new handle with the same width,” she says. Trading out traditional door knobs for a lever style will make the hardware easier to use as well.
