The trick to installing drawer knobs correctly is making sure you measure twice (or three times) and only drill ONCE... very carefully. A little patience and taking your time goes a long way.

I didn't use it in this video, but a cabinet hardware template tool is also a cheap and affordable way to help make sure you get your cabinet pull centered just right. You'll still want to rely on your measurements, but this little tool can help get the vertical alignment just right.
