In the landscape of Australian design, Fisher & Paykel has redefined what we expect from our kitchens. By moving away from the "industrial box" and towards modular, human-centred design, like the iconic DishDrawer™ and integrated refrigeration, they’ve allowed the kitchen to become a seamless extension of our living spaces.
At Manovella, we believe that when an appliance is designed to disappear into your cabinetry, the hardware you choose becomes the most important detail in the room.
The Mechanic of the Perfect Glide
Fisher & Paykel appliances are world-renowned for their ergonomics. Whether it’s the smooth action of a drawer or the soft-close of a Series 9 oven, the "feel" is everything. However, for fully integrated units, the weight of the custom cabinetry panel adds a new layer of mechanical stress.
Coming from a locksmithing background, we’ve developed a no-shortcuts standard for our cabinet hardware. We’ve seen how standard, hollow-core handles can feel thin or even flex when pulling open a large integrated fridge door. Our Charmian and Imogen appliance pulls are forged from solid brass, providing the structural rigidity needed to match Fisher & Paykel’s precision engineering. When you interact with the drawer or door, you feel a solid, premium connection that matches the quality of the appliance beneath.
A Finish for Every Series
Fisher & Paykel offers a curated range of styles, from the bold "Professional" look to the "Minimal" black glass aesthetic. Our hardware finishes are designed to complement these specific design paths:
- The Minimalist Silhouette: For the "Minimal" black glass series, our Matt Black or Gunmetal pulls provide a sharp, architectural look that maintains the clean lines Fisher & Paykel is famous for.
- The Contemporary Classic: Pair the "Contemporary" stainless steel range with our Brushed Nickel hardware. It offers a flawless, fingerprint-resistant match that feels as clean and modern as the New Zealand-born design.
- The Warm Integrated Look: If you are using timber veneers for your integrated panels, our Aged Brass or Brushed Brass pulls add a layer of organic luxury, softening the technical feel of the kitchen and creating a truly bespoke "social kitchen" environment.
Quality You Can Lean On
At Manovella, our approach is straightforward: we prioritise mechanical integrity over mass-production. We only stock what we would be proud to install in our own homes, ensuring that every cabinet and door handle is built to endure the high-traffic nature of a family kitchen.
Because we understand the mechanics of the home, we back our entire range with a 10-year mechanical warranty. Whether you are installing a single DishDrawer™ or a full suite of integrated columns, you can be confident that your Manovella hardware will perform as beautifully as your appliances for years to come.
The Touchstone of Quality
A Fisher & Paykel kitchen is a choice for a better, more intuitive lifestyle. Don’t let the final touch - the handle you use dozens of times a day - be an afterthought. By choosing solid brass Fisher & Paykel appliance pulls from experts who know how to build for durability, you ensure the tactile experience of your home matches your design vision.
With our 90-day return policy, you can visit our Melbourne showroom or order online to feel the weight and quality of our brass pulls in your own hand before the final installation.
