About Us
Since 2015 Knockout Designs has been creating custom knobs, hooks and pulls for all types of cabinetry and furniture. Our initial project was for bicycle wheel kitchen cabinet knobs and mudroom hooks. Soon we were getting requests for monograms, horseshoes, Oms and company logos. In 2017 a craft brewer asked for custom beer taps using their logo. An architect asked if we could create door handles to complement the knobs she had designed. 3D printing technology has enabled us to manufacture one of a kind beer taps for breweries and designs with metal filigree for interior and exterior door locksets. Knockout Designs is ready to share our design and manufacturing expertise with you to turn your design concepts into unique hardware. What started as Knockout Knobs in 2015 has evolved into Knockout Designs in 2019. We changed our name to reflect our growth from custom hardware to include custom beer, wine and cold brew coffee tap handles.
The Knockout Designs advantage:
- No mold making; we need only your idea blended with our design and functionality experience to create a CAD rendering (Computer Animated Drawing)
- Making design changes is easy after you see the rendering or prototype
- We specialize in small orders 1-100
- We can create tap handles and door hardware in a variety of materials including metal, plastic and wood
- We can create hardware in a variety of metals and finishes
- Additive Manufacturing allows us to create innovative designs with bronze, black steel, nickel and gold filigree.
We thread our cabinet hardware and ensure all our hardware fits and functions properly, ready for installation when delivered. In addition to 3D printing we also have the option of using more traditional manufacturing forms to deliver the most cost efficient, aesthetically pleasing results possible.
How We Do It
Bring us something as simple as a sketch on a napkin or just a hint of an idea with no image at all. Each project is specific to each client. Our minimum is just one piece.
We create a design base on your drawing, photograph, logo or concept. Our $250 design fee includes a rendering with two revisions and prototype for your approval. Our turnaround time is 4-6 weeks from design approval. All tap handles, flight boards, cabinet and door hardware are manufactured at our shop in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts.
