Cliffside Industries is a cabinet hardware distribution company based in Lititz, Pennsylvania.
History
The Cliffside legacy began in April 1987 as the dream of its founder, Walter Zaleskie. Having been previously involved in the kitchen and bath industry for over 14 years, Walter had the dream to start his own company. He carved his niche in the area of decorative hardware.
Cliffside truly began with one man, one idea and one knob. Walter ran his office out of the basement of his home and rented warehouse space from any company that had space to spare. Walter traveled to the Far East and Europe in search of quality crafted hardware at competitive prices. His first hardware board was both limited and modest. He took it with him everywhere he went as he drove up and down the East Coast and across the Midwest, visiting cabinetmakers and dealers far and wide. Bit by bit, Walter saw his company grow and with that, he remained dedicated to growing his line of hardware. What began with one knob has grown to over 1,000 items. What started with one man has grown into a team of hardworking, dedicated professionals. What began in the basement of a home is now a warehouse and office complex located in the heart of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Knobs
Cliffside Industries offers a wide variety of cabinet knobs for any home decorating project. The company started with just one knob, the 100-PB (pictured at right), and Walter's legacy grew from this one simple product. Today, Cliffside provides a large selection of knobs, from solid brass to zinc die cast, bronze to pewter, German crystal to Italian marble. Some of the most popular-selling pieces include the 100 series knob, the 105 series knob, the 110 series knob, the 158 series knob and the 161 series knob (see the photo gallery for examples). Since Cliffside is currently undergoing a hardware line expansion, several new knobs and other stock items in new finishes are now available. See our website for more details and to check available finishes.
Pulls
Standard cabinet pulls
Cliffside distributes many styles and sizes of pulls, but none are as popular as the standard-sized drawer pulls. Most standard Cliffside pulls measure 3" center-to-center, though several other industry-standard sizes are available (4" in limited pulls, 96mm in limited pulls, 128mm in limited pulls). As part of the current line expansion, Cliffside Industries has constructed hardware suites around its four most popular pulls: B1-3, SP-3, K344, and P-399 (see the photo gallery for examples). Each of these suites is available in all of our top ten finishes. There is a wide variety to choose from; check out the Cliffside website for additional information.
