Emtek 86314-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Emtek Atomic cabinet knob come in?
The Atomic knob is offered in three diameters: 1 inch, 1-1/4 inch, and 1-5/8 inch. Smaller 1 inch knobs suit upper cabinets and drawer banks where you want a lighter look; the 1-5/8 inch gives a bigger grip on tall pantry doors and heavy drawers. All three sizes come in the same six finishes, so you can mix sizes across a kitchen and keep the finish consistent.
2) What is the closest solid brass alternative to the Emtek Atomic cabinet knob in a 1 inch size?
The Atomic cabinet knob is a solid brass knob offered in 1 inch, 1-1/4 inch and 1-5/8 inch diameters. For a 1 inch solid brass knob from another maker, the Schaub 10040 Cafe Collection modern oval cabinet knob is 1 inch diameter with 7/8 inch center to center in solid brass, and the Schaub 10030 Cafe is the same 1 inch diameter and 7/8 inch center to center in an oval slot profile. Both are oval-form knobs rather than the Atomic's mid century modern shape.
3) I need a cabinet knob larger than 1-5/8 inch - what should I use instead of the Atomic?
The Emtek Atomic cabinet knob tops out at 1-5/8 inch diameter. If the door or drawer face calls for something bigger, the Deltana KRB175 round knob with groove is a 1-3/4 inch diameter heavy-duty solid brass knob, which is the next step up in the same material.
4) Does the Emtek Atomic cabinet knob come with the mounting screw, or do I need to buy hardware separately?
A mounting screw is included with the knob. Cabinet knobs use a single through-screw from the back of the door or drawer front, so on standard 3/4 inch fronts you are ready to install out of the box. Unusually thick or built-up fronts can need a longer screw, which is a hardware-store item rather than a special order.
5) Is the Emtek Atomic knob rated for commercial use or is it a residential product?
It is classed residential. For apartment turns, model units, and single family work it is the right category. For a high traffic commercial casework job, specify hardware rated for that service instead.
6) What style is the Emtek Atomic knob, and what else should I look at if it is not the right look?
Atomic is a mid century modern design. If you want something rounder and more traditional, the Deltana KRB175 is a solid brass round knob with a groove at 1-3/4 inch diameter. For a softer modern shape, the Schaub 10040 Cafe Collection oval knob is solid brass at 1 inch diameter, and the Schaub 131 Artifex is a 1-1/2 inch round knob in britannium. Craftsman kitchens usually land on something like the Orca CK-18032 Mission round knob.
7) I need to order more Atomic knobs to match what is already installed. What part number do I give?
Order by the SPC86315 base number plus the US finish code. For example the 1-1/4 inch in Oil Rubbed Bronze is SPC86315US10B, Satin Nickel is SPC86315US15, and Flat Black is SPC86315US19. Matching an existing run means matching both the finish code and the diameter, since all six finishes are made in all three sizes.
8) Is there a lower-cost material option than the brass Atomic knob for a rental turnover?
The Emtek Atomic cabinet knob is solid brass throughout. If brass is not required, the Schaub 1200 Modo is a 16 mm cabinet knob built from zinc and aluminum, a different construction for jobs where solid brass is not the requirement. The Delaney solid brass cabinet knob is another option if you want to stay in brass.
9) Do I need a backplate or rosette behind the Emtek Atomic cabinet knob?
No separate plate is part of the knob. What ships is the knob and its mounting screw, so it mounts directly to the door or drawer front through a single bore. If you are replacing older hardware that had a backplate covering an oversized or damaged hole, plan on filling and redrilling, or choose a knob with a larger footprint such as the 1-3/4 inch Deltana KRB175.
