Deltana PW400 Wire Pull, 4"

Not for an appliance. The PW400 is a 4 inch cabinet pull, sized for standard doors and small to medium drawers. On a wide bank drawer or a refrigerator panel you want something considerably longer, like the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch pull, which is catalogued as an appliance pull. Using a 4 inch pull on a heavy appliance front puts all the load on two closely spaced screws.

The Omnia 1968/102 modern cabinet pull is the nearest match on both counts: it is forged solid brass and carries 4 inch center-to-center spacing, the same spacing the PW400 wire pull is built to at its 4 inch size. Both are solid brass bodies, so a kitchen or vanity run mixing the two will take finish coatings on the same substrate. The difference is form - the PW400 is a wire pull, a simple bent bar profile, while the 1968/102 is a modern-profile pull from the Omnia 1968 series.

Projection is the clearance between the pull and the cabinet face, and it decides whether a work glove fits behind the grip. Two Omnia pulls state theirs: the 1970 modern cabinet pull is forged solid brass with 1-1/4 inch projection, and the 1969 and 1971 modern cabinet pulls are forged solid brass with 1-3/16 inch projection. All three are the same solid brass construction as the Deltana PW400 wire pull. For a maintenance shop or a commercial galley where crews work gloved, spec by that projection number rather than by length alone.

Step up to a dedicated appliance pull. The Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch cabinet pull is classed as an appliance pull, which is the category built for refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher panel doors where the leaf is heavy and the grip has to be long enough for a full hand plus leverage. The Deltana PW400 wire pull is a 4 inch pull specified for residential use, sized for drawer fronts and standard cabinet doors. Do not carry a 4 inch pull onto an appliance panel and expect the same feel at the handle.

No - the 4 inch on each refers to the same center-to-center dimension, but the Schaub 10011 Sabre is an edge pull, not a surface-mounted cabinet pull. An edge pull sits at the edge of the door or drawer face and is used where a projecting handle would foul an adjacent door, a sliding panel, or a flush run. The Deltana PW400 is a surface-mounted wire pull that stands off the face. Swapping one for the other changes both the prep in the door and the way the cabinet opens, so confirm which style the millwork was drilled for before ordering. Schaub also lists the Sabre edge pull at 3 inch center to center as the 10010 and 5 inch as the 10012 if the run needs a different spacing.

The Deltana PW400 wire pull is specified as a residential product in solid brass. For commercial casework, Trimco lists the 553 series drawer pulls at 3 inch center to center and the 562 series with 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center options. If the drawing calls out 4 inch centers, the Trimco 562 series covers it, and the 96mm option in that same series is useful when the casework was drilled to a metric standard. Institutional buyers standardizing a building generally want one series across every drawer front, so pick the series that carries all the spacings on the job.

Solid brass throughout, not plated zinc or hollow tube. Brass takes handling in a kitchen or bath better than pot metal, which is why it turns up on turnover work where a pull gets grabbed thousands of times. Deltana rates the PW400 for residential use, so it is a good match for apartment kitchens, baths and closets rather than heavy commercial millwork.

Nine finishes: PVD Polished Brass, Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome and Paint Black. If you are matching existing brass hardware that has held its color, the PVD Polished Brass is the one to pick, since PVD is a hard vapor deposited coating rather than a lacquer. Straight Polished Brass is lacquered brass and will mellow over time.

Both are solid brass. The PW400 is a plain wire pull, a simple bent bar with no decorative shaping. The Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern pull also on 4 inch center to center spacing, so it is the direct swap if you want the same hole pattern in a heavier forged profile. Omnia's 1969 and 1971 carry a 1-3/16 inch projection and the 1970 a 1-1/4 inch, which is what to check if you have a tight pinch point between the pull and a nearby wall or appliance.

Deltana lists the PW400 as a residential product. It is fine for millwork in a hotel room, a clubhouse, or multi family unit cabinetry, where the traffic is residential in character. For heavy public use casework, a steel pull such as the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-Pull Bar is the sturdier direction.

A pull is gripped across two mounting points; a knob is a single-point grab. The Deltana PW400 is a 4 inch pull, so the door or drawer front needs two holes bored on 4 inch centers. The Orca Hardware CK-15030 from the Bachelor Collection is a round cabinet pull knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter, and the CK-16030 is the round ring version at the same 1-1/4 inch diameter; the CK-17025 Blackcomb square cabinet knob is 25mm. Knobs mount on a single hole. On a refit, the existing hole pattern usually decides this for you - going from a knob to the PW400 means drilling a second hole in every face.

Yes. The Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel with a 2 inch bar width, finished satin nickel, from the 12-Bar Pull series. The Deltana PW400 wire pull is solid brass. For a high-turnover rental fleet where pulls take abuse and get replaced rather than refinished, the steel bar pull is the different material bet; for a run being finish-matched to brass hardware elsewhere in the unit, stay with the brass body of the PW400, which comes in finishes including polished brass, antique brass, oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel and polished chrome.

The PW400 is a pull only, a 4 inch wire form. If you want knobs on the upper doors and pulls on the drawers in a coordinated look, mix in a round knob such as the Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection CK-15030 at 1-1/4 inch diameter, or the ringed CK-16030 in the same diameter. Match on finish rather than expecting a knob sibling in the wire pull line.

Emtek's Schaub Collection covers the decorative end: the Alexander cabinet pull, the Art Deco cabinet pull, and the Bar cabinet pull are each a distinct series functioning as a cabinet knob or pull, alongside the Emtek 8405 from the Emtek SELECT series. The Deltana PW400 wire pull is the plain bent-bar profile in solid brass, 4 inch. Where a millwork package calls for a period or styled profile on the upper cabinets and something plainer in a utility room, the two lines can be run in the same job.
