Emtek 86695-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Emtek Brandt cabinet knob come in?
Two diameters: 1-1/4 inch and 1-3/4 inch. Both sizes are offered in the same six finishes, so you can mix the smaller knob on upper doors and the larger one on drawer fronts without a finish mismatch. The two model numbers behind the series are 86695 and 86696.
2) Is a knob or a small pull better for my cabinet doors?
A knob like the Brandt mounts with a single screw through one hole, so there is no center-to-center dimension to match and layout mistakes are hard to make. A two-hole pull has to match a fixed spacing, for example the Schaub 10030 Cafe knob is a single-hole knob while pulls in that family carry a stated 7/8 inch center to center. If you are replacing existing two-hole pulls, a knob leaves one hole exposed unless you fill and refinish.
3) What is the closest solid brass alternative to the Emtek Brandt cabinet knob in a 1-3/4 inch diameter?
The Deltana KRB175 is a round knob with a groove in solid brass at a 1-3/4 inch diameter, making it the closest match in both material and size to the 1-3/4 inch Brandt knob, which is also brass. The Brandt is an industrial modern shape; the KRB175 is a plain round knob with a groove detail, and Deltana describes it as heavy-duty.
4) Is the Schaub 10040 Cafe knob a drop-in replacement for the Emtek Brandt cabinet knob?
No. Both are solid brass cabinet knobs, but the Schaub 10040 is a modern oval knob at 1 inch diameter with 7/8 inch center to center, meaning it mounts on two screws. The Brandt knob ships with a single mounting screw, so swapping between them changes the drilling in the door or drawer front.
5) What finishes are available on the Brandt knob?
Six: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26) and Satin Brass (US4). If you're matching existing Emtek door hardware in a house, the US-number finish codes are the thing to compare, not the finish name.
6) Does the Brandt cabinet knob come with a mounting screw?
Yes, a mounting screw is included with each knob, so no separate fastener order is needed for standard cabinet door and drawer front thicknesses.
7) Is the Emtek Brandt knob solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both as the material and the substrate, so the finish sits on brass rather than on die-cast zinc. That matters in kitchens and baths where humidity is constant.
8) What style does the Brandt knob suit, and what should I look at if it's too modern?
Brandt reads Industrial Modern within a contemporary theme, so it lands in flat-panel and slab-door kitchens. For a traditional or craftsman room, the Orca CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob is the closer fit, and the Schaub 131 Artifex round knob in Britannium at 1-1/2 inch diameter suits a rustic or transitional scheme.
9) The Brandt knob is listed for residential use - what is a heavier-duty knob for a high-traffic cabinet?
The Emtek Brandt cabinet knob is a residential-grade brass knob. Where you want something stouter, the Deltana KRB175 is described as a heavy-duty solid brass round knob at 1-3/4 inch diameter, matching the Brandt's larger size while being specified as heavy-duty.
10) What is the Emtek part number for the Brandt knob in polished nickel?
SPC86695US14 is the polished nickel 1-1/4 inch. The pattern runs SPC86695 plus the finish code, so satin nickel is SPC86695US15, flat black SPC86695US19, polished chrome SPC86695US26 and satin brass SPC86695US4.
