Emtek Bauhaus Appliance Pull, 12" and 18" Appliance Pulls, Schaub Collection

Three mounting styles are offered: Standard (thru-bolt with decorative caps), CS (concealed surface), and BTB (back-to-back). Standard thru-bolts through the panel with visible decorative caps on the back side. Concealed surface mounts from the face with no fastener showing through, which is what you want on an appliance panel or a door you cannot drill all the way through. Back-to-back pairs the pull with a matching pull on the opposite face, which is the choice for a pantry or passage door where you need a grip on both sides. Mounting is chosen at order time, so decide before you buy.

Two lengths, 12 inch and 18 inch center to center. The 12 inch is the usual pick for a dishwasher or single fridge panel or a narrow cabinet door; the 18 inch suits a full-height refrigerator or freezer panel and tall pantry doors. Both use the same 1-3/4 inch projection, so you can mix the two sizes across a kitchen and keep the same standoff off the face of the cabinetry.

Projection is 1-3/4 inches. That matters in two places: a galley kitchen or an island where a pull that sticks out catches hips and aprons, and any panel that swings near an adjacent wall or return cabinet. Check the 1-3/4 inch standoff against your door swing clearance before you set the bore centers.

No. The Bauhaus pull ships as a complete set with screws included. Note that screw length is tied to the mounting style and the thickness of the panel you are drilling, so the door thickness you specify on the order matters for getting the right fasteners with a thru-bolt or back-to-back setup.

Because two of the three mounting styles pass fasteners through the panel. Standard thru-bolt with decorative caps and back-to-back mounting both need screws sized to the actual panel thickness, so entering the thickness of your appliance panel or door gets the correct fasteners in the set. Concealed surface mounting does not go through, but giving the thickness is still the safe move.

Seven finishes: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Both the 12 inch and 18 inch lengths are offered, so a remodeler can carry one finish across appliance panels, cabinet doors and a back-to-back pantry pull. Unlacquered Brass is a living finish and will darken with handling, so avoid it if you need every pull in a unit to look identical for years.

It is classified as residential. For a kitchen remodel, a custom home, or an apartment unit refresh it is the right class of hardware. For a commercial kitchen, a school, or a high-cycle institutional opening, a property manager should spec commercial-grade door pulls instead, since this pull carries no commercial duty rating.

Yes. It is catalogued as a door or appliance pull, and the back-to-back mounting option exists specifically for use on a swinging door where you want a matching pull on each face. At 18 inches center to center it reads as a proper door pull on a pantry, barn slab, or entry; at 12 inches it works on narrower doors and drawers.

No. It is a non-keyed pull with no locking function at all, just a grip. If you need a latch or a lock on that opening, the pull has to be paired with separate hardware.

The Bauhaus is a mid century modern profile, a clean squared bar without ornament. It sits well with flat-panel and slab cabinetry and modern appliance panels. If the kitchen is traditional raised-panel with beaded detail, a more ornate Emtek profile will read better than the Bauhaus.
