Is 5 inch the same as 128 mm for cabinet pulls?

Yes. A 5 inch cabinet pull refers to a 128 mm center-to-center hole spacing. Both measurements describe the same distance between the two mounting holes.

How do I know if my cabinets use 128 mm spacing?

Remove one of your existing pulls and measure from the center of one screw hole to the center of the other. If the measurement is about 5 inches or very close to 128 mm, your cabinets use 5" / 128 mm spacing.

Are 128 mm cabinet pulls a standard size?

Yes. 128 mm (5 inch) center-to-center spacing is one of the most common modern sizes for cabinet pulls, especially in newer kitchens and bathrooms.

Can I replace my old pulls with 5 inch (128 mm) pulls without drilling?

You can replace your old pulls with 5 inch (128 mm) pulls without drilling new holes as long as your existing hardware also has 5" / 128 mm center-to-center spacing. If the spacing is different, the holes will not line up.

What Does 5" (128 mm) Hole Spacing Mean?

Hole spacing, or center-to-center (CTC) spacing, is the distance between the centers of the two mounting holes on your cabinet door or drawer front.

5 inch spacing means the screw holes are 5" apart from center to center.
In metric terms, that same measurement is 128 mm center-to-center.
If your existing pulls measure 5" (or 128 mm) between the screw holes, any pull in this collection will fit without drilling new holes.

This size is extremely common in contemporary and updated kitchens, making it a great go-to option for both replacements and new installations.

How to Measure Your Existing Cabinet Pulls

Remove one of your current pulls from the door or drawer.
Measure from the center of one screw hole to the center of the other screw hole.
If the measurement is approximately 5 inches or very close to 128 mm, your hole spacing is 5" / 128 mm.
Choose any pull from this collection for a straightforward, no-redrill replacement.

Product descriptions may list this size as 5" pulls, 128 mm pulls, or 128 mm center-to-center — they all refer to the same spacing.

When to Choose 5" (128 mm) Cabinet Pulls

5" (128 mm) pulls are a great choice when:

Your existing hardware measures 5" (or 128 mm) center-to-center
You want a slightly longer, more substantial pull than 3" or 96 mm sizes
You have wider drawers or cabinet doors that look better with a larger pull
You’re designing a modern or transitional kitchen and want a popular, easy-to-find size

5" (128 mm) pulls are especially popular on kitchen drawers and medium-to-large cabinet doors, and can be paired with longer pulls (like 160 mm or 224 mm) on extra-wide drawers for a custom designer look.
