DIY kitchens question - handles

I'm likely to buy some DIY kitchens units for our utility but I don't like their handles.

If I buy the kitchen without handles will they still come pre-drilled for handles (which means the holes probably won't be in the right place for my choice of handle)?

No they are not pre drilled.

We also didn't like their handles so bought some really good knobs from Ironmongery Direct. Husband fitted them easily and we placed them where we wanted.

Hello,

Pretty sure that kitchen cupboard doors come without the holes drilled, for exactly the reason that people might want different handles. Only way to be 100% sure is to ask the place where you are buying them from.

Brilliant, thank you both. I'm asking here because I know I won't get a chance to contact them during work hours this week and I know MN has quite a few people who used them. I'll order now!

We got ours from DIY kit hens and sourced handles elsewhere -DH drilled holes and fitted handles.
Still looks good 10 years on.

Sorry DIY Kitchens - no idea what a kit hen would be like
