Should all kitchen hardware match in colour?

Ok, strange question! I’ve just changed all of my kitchen handles to a more modern profile in chrome (thanks Bunnings!).

But the recessed handle on the pantry sliding door is still gold, like all the other doors in the house.

Should I change it to silver as well, or am I just being to matchy matchy?

If it's bothered you enough to notice, I'd suggest changing it @Tywoodpk. Typically, you'd stick with all the same coloured hardware within a room. I can't imagine anyone will judge you for having one gold handle, but it could become a bugbear for you.

Thank you, I will change it.

Not a strange question at all, @Tywoodpk!

The way I was explained things was to treat each room as their own contained project and match small accessories throughout the house based on key rooms - Entrance / Kitchen / Bathroom. As the pantry is part of the kitchen, I'd match it with the chrome kitchen handles you've already purchased.

Can never go wrong with matchy matchy, certainly helps my OCD 🙂

Thank you! I’ll definitely be heading to Bunnings shortly to buy a new one to match.
