What are straps, bars & rivets?

  • Straps are flat, vertical strips of metal while bars give a raised, protruding look to your kitchen hood.
  • Rivets attach to straps as small, decorative nail heads. Constructed from various metals and colors, the welded pins add extra style and flair to the overall design. Rivets are available for straps only.

FAQ's

Do I have to add straps, bars, or rivets?

No! Some of our customers prefer a smooth body or hammering textures with no straps and rivets. You can also choose to do only a custom apron pattern.

If I decide to add straps or bars, how many should I add?

You can choose from 2-5 straps or bars per hood depending on the hood model. The default option for straps and bars per hood is 2-3. Submit a form or call to work directly with one of our master designers and customize your hood even more precisely.

What’s the difference between straps and bars?

Straps are flat strips of metal welded vertically for decoration and additional texture on the hood. Bars are rounded, elevated and protruding metal strips welded vertically also. Straps allow for rivets to be welded on top for additional decoration and flair.

Can I add rivets to the bars?

No. Rivets can only be added to straps. The curvature of the bars does not allow for rivets to be welded.

What are the advantages of adding straps or bars?

Straps and bars draw the eye upwards. This effect gives an elongated look and often makes your kitchen feel taller.

Which hood styles can I add straps, bars, or rivets to?

All our models can be customized with straps and rivets or bars!
