About Us

It all started with a house.
When we built our own, we thought the hardest part would be the bricks and mortar. Turns out, it was the handles. We wanted something unique, something that made us smile every time we opened a cupboard or drawer. After searching high and low, we realised South Africa was seriously lacking in handles with personality.

So… we got a grip (literally). We imported a handful of designs we loved, friends and family wanted them too, and before long our little obsession became a shop.

At Get a Grip, we believe handles shouldn’t be an afterthought. They’re the finishing touch, the detail that turns “just furniture” into your furniture. Whether it’s quirky, elegant, modern, or downright unusual, our collection is here to make your home stand out in all the right ways.

Because life’s too short for boring handles.
