Abstract

A cabinet door comprises a sheet metal door panel having a flange extending rearwardly along one vertical edge, and a sheet metal handle of uniform horizontal cross-section extending vertically along the flange and secured thereto. The handle itself forms part of the closure. Because of symmetry, the handle and the door panel can be used in both right and left handed configurations. The handle can be grasped at any location along its height, and is advantageous for cabinets at hard-to-reach locations.
