Hardware Resources is a major distributor, and its in-house cabinet hardware brands—Jeffrey Alexander and Elements—are widely specified by designers, builders, and cabinet shops. But many shoppers don’t realize that Cosmas Hardware offers style-matched alternatives that closely track the same design families, sizes, and finishes.

If you found this page by searching a Hardware Resources SKU (or a Jeffrey Alexander / Elements part number), use the sortable table below to find the closest Cosmas match—then compare pricing.

This Is Just a Small Sample

The comparison table above highlights only a handful of popular, high-volume cabinet knobs and pulls. In reality, there are dozens of Cosmas knobs and pulls that closely match the styles, sizes, and finishes offered by Jeffrey Alexander and Elements collections.

Many of these equivalents share the same core design traits—clean profiles, solid metal construction, popular center-to-center sizes, and matching finish options—making them interchangeable choices for kitchens, bathrooms, and full-home projects.

The examples shown are meant to illustrate a broader pattern: homeowners can often achieve the same look and functionality across an entire project without paying premium brand pricing.

Why the Price Difference?

The gap usually comes down to distribution layers and MAP pricing—not because one option has to be “better.” Hardware Resources items are sold through dealer and designer channels, and MAP policies keep advertised pricing consistent. Cosmas focuses on a value-forward model, helping homeowners and remodelers get the same style family for less.

Is Cosmas Hardware Comparable in Quality?

Yes—and in many cases, the difference is indistinguishable in real-world use. Cabinet hardware quality comes down to weight, finish consistency, and how it feels once installed. Cosmas hardware is manufactured with solid metal construction, precise sizing, and durable finishes that meet the same practical standards expected from higher-priced brands like Hardware Resources.

In fact, many customers are surprised to find that Cosmas hardware feels just as substantial—or even more so—than comparable pieces sold through designer-focused brands.

Once installed, Cosmas knobs and pulls deliver the same tactile feel, visual presence, and long-term reliability homeowners and professionals look for—without paying extra for brand positioning, designer distribution, or minimum advertised pricing.
