The homeowner wants cabinet pulls having only a single screw: not a two screw handle, but a single screw knob on the kitchen cabinet drawers and doors.
Further, she wants a pull that is not symmetric, like a circle, but rather an oval. As a consequence if a knob is twisted it will not line up with the other knobs, which of course is unacceptable.
I tried the orange box but all the knobs were smooth on the surface contacting the cabinet surface with no means to prevent rotation of the knob if the screw loosens.
Looking for a brand of single screw knob that has a barb raised on the surface contacting the cabinet to prevent rotation. Any suggestions?
Also, any thoughts on how one might prevent the smooth surface knobs from rotating? (I don’t think lockwashers will be acceptable.)
Thank you for your help.

(Edit) The homeowner wants metal (stainless) pulls.

If the pull is wood use glue.
or-
Use two 1" brads drill 1/2" into the pull, cut the head off of the brads next put the pull in place and tighten until it marks the door. Now drill the small holes in the door. Tighten in place.

If it is metal you can drill it and get a role pin and drill and drive it into the pull next drill a hole in the door for it a little bigger then in the pull.
