I have 10mm  brads that I use.....sometimes I don't even bother cutting them if they won't be seen.  they work just fine.   for a long styled handle,  I just bend brass rod.......sometimes with a curvature,  and cut off to scale.

I yam wot I yam!

sounds good Dragzz, I myself used the supplied nails and drilled a hole In the doors and cut off a bit of excess at the back. the heads stick out a bit to give a bot more depth
