Black Friday is more than just a shopping holiday — for homeowners and renovators, it's the ideal moment to refresh the details of your kitchen. As 2025 brings fresh design trends for cabinet hardware, upgrading your kitchen handles now can deliver style, value, and long-term impact.

1. U.S. & Global Hardware Market Outlook

The global cabinet hardware market continues to show strong growth momentum. According to Business Research Insights, the market is projected to reach approximately USD 11.06 billion by 2025, supported by a steady CAGR driven by rising home renovation demand, modern design preferences, and the growing trend of premium kitchen upgrades.

At the same time, the U.S. home improvement sector remains one of the world’s largest and most resilient markets. Arizton Advisory & Intelligence reports that the industry reached USD 522.25 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow to USD 615.58 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of about 2.78%.

This expanding market environment means that cabinet hardware—particularly premium, design-focused kitchen handles—is becoming a high-demand category. Consumers are increasingly seeking modern finishes, ergonomic designs, and durable materials, making 2025 a promising year for hardware brands like Goldenwarm to capture growing demand with stylish and functional handle collections.

2. Top Hardware Design Trends in the U.S.

①Mixed Metals

Designers are increasingly recommending combining different metals, such as brass and crystal, or black metal and gold metal. Such combinations add depth and flexibility to home décor.

②Matte Black & Dark Finishes

Matte black remains a classic, but 2025 design trends show more textured finishes (such as brushed or textured) on black hardware.

③Sustainable / Natural Materials

More consumers are focusing on environmental protection and material sourcing. Designers recommend using recycled metals, hand-forged materials, or natural wood handles. Not only are they more aesthetically pleasing, but these types of hardware are also more durable and develop a natural patina over time.

④Oversized / Statement Pulls

Larger handles (such as extended handles) are becoming increasingly popular, not only for their practicality (making it easier to pull out cabinets) but also as a visual focal point. These handles can significantly enhance the design of cabinets, giving the kitchen a more "sculptural" feel.

⑤Unique Shapes and Textures

Organic, streamlined handle designs (such as round or wavy shapes), or textured hardware (hammered or embossed textures) are becoming increasingly popular. These designs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also offer a better touch feel, enhancing the user experience.

3. Why Black Friday Is the Perfect Time to Upgrade Your Kitchen Handles

Conclusion

Black Friday 2025 is a strategic moment to align trend-forward design with smart buying. By investing in kitchen handle upgrades now — especially in mixed metals, sustainable finishes, or oversized styles — you not only refresh your space but also lock in value before these finishes potentially become harder to source or more expensive. Goldenwarm’s curated Black Friday collection offers you a chance to get ahead of the design curve.
