Emtek Dane Cabinet Pull, Schaub Collection

The Dane pull is offered in 3 inch, 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, 6 inch and 10 inch center-to-center. Those five spacings cover the usual run of a kitchen: 3 and 3-1/2 inch on drawer fronts and small doors, 4 and 6 inch on wider drawers, and the 10 inch for tall pantry or appliance-style fronts. Center-to-center is the distance between the two screw holes, so measure your existing bore spacing before picking a size.

The Dane is a residential cabinet pull. For millwork in an office, hotel or institutional casework program where the hardware gets constant traffic, look at a heavier commercial drawer pull instead, such as the Trimco 553 Series at 3 inch center-to-center or the Trimco 562 Series, which covers 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96mm spacings.

No. The Dane is a surface-mounted cabinet pull that projects off the front and mounts through two bored holes. Where a pull cannot protrude, on a tight galley run or where a door swings against an adjacent wall, an edge pull is the answer instead. Schaub's Sabre edge pulls cover that in solid brass at 3 inch (10010), 4 inch (10011) and 5 inch (10012) center-to-center.

The Dane pull is made in a 4 inch center-to-center size, so it will drop onto that drilling directly. If you want a different look on the same holes, the Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern cabinet pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, and the Schaub 10011 Sabre is a solid brass edge pull at 4 inch center-to-center. The Sabre is an edge pull, so it mounts along a door or drawer edge rather than sitting proud of the face the way the Dane does.

The Deltana SBP35 Modern Square Bar Pull is a 3-1/2 inch solid brass bar pull, which matches one of the Dane pull's center-to-center spacings. The Dane is a brass cabinet pull in a mid century modern style; the SBP35 is a squared bar profile in Deltana's SBP Series, so the silhouette reads more angular. If your drilling is already set at 3-1/2 inch and you only need a brass bar pull to fill it, either will land on the existing holes.

The Dane is a residential cabinet pull in brass. For an appliance door, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch pull is built as an appliance pull, which is the category to specify when the handle has to take the weight and leverage of a refrigerator or range door rather than a drawer front. Use the Dane on cabinet doors and drawers, and step to the appliance pull where the door is heavy.

Six finishes across every size: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26) and Satin Brass (US4). The US codes are the standard finish designations, so if you are matching Emtek door hardware elsewhere in the house you can spec the same code and the two will read as a set.

Mounting screws come with the pull, so nothing extra is required for a standard install. One caution: cabinet screws are sized for a typical 3/4 inch face frame or drawer front, and thicker fronts or fronts with an applied panel can need a longer machine screw sourced separately.

A few directions from other brands. The Deltana SBP35 is a modern square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch in solid brass if you want hard edges instead of the Dane's softer mid century line. The Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern pull at 4 inch center-to-center. For something heavier and more industrial on an appliance or pantry front, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks is an 8 inch appliance pull.

Only if you are willing to redrill. The Dane is a two-hole pull sized by center-to-center spacing from 3 inch to 12 inch, while knobs take a single fastener. If a knob is what the door wants, the Orca Bachelor Collection offers a 1-1/4 inch diameter round cabinet knob (CK-15030) and a 1-1/4 inch round ring version (CK-16030), and the Blackcomb CK-17025 is a 25mm square knob. Many kitchens run knobs on doors and the Dane pulls on drawers.

For a specified projection, the Omnia modern cabinet pulls state theirs: the 1969 and the 1971 are forged solid brass at 1-3/16 inch projection, and the 1970 is forged solid brass at 1-1/4 inch projection. That figure matters when a drawer front sits close to an adjacent wall or appliance. The Emtek Dane is a brass cabinet pull supplied with mounting screws in center-to-center sizes from 3 inch to 12 inch, so it is the better pick when the spacing range drives the decision rather than clearance.

The Emtek Dane is classified as residential hardware in brass. For a steel-bodied pull, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-Pull Bar is a steel pull with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel, and Trimco's drawer pull series are another route: the 553 Series at 3 inch center-to-center and the 562 Series with 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center options. Those spacings overlap the Dane's, so the drilling pattern carries across if you are mixing within a facility.

Dane is a mid century modern design with an American Classic theme, so it lands well on flat-panel and slab fronts, shaker doors, and transitional cabinetry rather than heavily ornamented traditional millwork. Running it in Satin Brass or Flat Black is the usual way people push it warm or graphic.

Dane part numbers run as an SPC base number for the size with the finish code appended. Polished Chrome at 3 inch center-to-center is SPC86309US26, Oil Rubbed Bronze at 4 inch is SPC86311US10B, and Oil Rubbed Bronze at 6 inch is SPC86312US10B. Specify the center-to-center and the finish together and the number resolves.

The Dane itself runs out to 12 inch center-to-center, so a single family can cover small drawers and a tall pantry front. If you want a long pull from another line, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks is an 8 inch pull built as an appliance pull. Keeping the Dane across both lets the finish match exactly, since it is offered in Oil Rubbed Bronze, Polished Nickel, Satin Nickel, Flat Black, Polished Chrome, and Satin Brass.
