Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull, Schaub Collection

The Freestone is a finger pull, not a center-to-center bar pull. It is offered in one 1-7/8 inch size with a 1-7/8 inch projection, so there is no drilling spacing to match. If your cabinet doors are already bored for a two-hole pull, you would need a pull with a stated center-to-center dimension instead, such as the Omnia 1968/102 at 4 inch centers or the Schaub 10010 Sabre edge pull at 3 inch centers.

Both are pulls that mount on a cabinet face or edge, but they are dimensioned differently. The Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull is a single-piece finger pull in brass with a 1-7/8 inch projection. The Schaub Sabre edge pulls are specified by center-to-center spacing instead: the 10010 is 3 inch center-to-center, the 10011 is 4 inch, and the 10012 is 5 inch. If the door or drawer front is drilled for a two-hole pattern at one of those spacings, a Sabre edge pull matches the existing bore; the Freestone finger pull is the choice when you want a compact grip rather than a spanning pull.

The Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern cabinet pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, which gives a full-hand grip across a drawer front. The Deltana SBP35 is a heavy-duty solid brass square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch. Either spans a wider front than the Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull, which is a brass finger pull with a 1-7/8 inch projection intended as a compact grip. Confirm your existing bore spacing before you switch, since the Omnia and Deltana pulls are two-hole mounts specified by center-to-center.

The Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull projects 1-7/8 inch. Among the Omnia modern cabinet pulls, the 1970 projects 1-1/4 inch, and both the 1969 and 1971 project 1-3/16 inch, all in forged solid brass. Those sit closer to the cabinet face than the Freestone, so if hand clearance in a tight galley or a door that swings past an adjacent run is the concern, the Omnia 1969, 1970 or 1971 gives you less stand-off.

The Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull is designated residential. For casework in a commercial or institutional setting, the Trimco 553 Series drawer pull at 3 inch center-to-center and the Trimco 562 Series at 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96mm center-to-center options are drawer pulls carried under a commercial builders hardware line, and the Deltana SBP35 square bar pull is specified as heavy-duty solid brass. Match the center-to-center to the drilling on the casework shop drawings.

Projection is 1-7/8 inches. That is a fair bit of reach for cabinet hardware, so check clearance in a tight galley or where a drawer front sits close to an adjacent appliance. If you want something flatter, the Omnia 1969 and 1971 are listed at 1-3/16 inch projection and the Omnia 1970 at 1-1/4 inch.

Brass, both as the material and the substrate, so the finish sits on brass rather than a die-cast base. That matters in a kitchen or bath where hardware gets handled wet and plating on zinc tends to lift at the edges first.

It is classified residential. For multi-family unit interiors and single-family remodels that is the right fit, but for high-traffic commercial casework in a school or clinic you want a pull specified for that duty, for example the Trimco 553 Series drawer pulls at 3 inch centers or the Deltana SBP35 heavy-duty solid brass bar pull.

The Freestone is a small 1-7/8 inch finger pull, sized for cabinet doors and drawers rather than a refrigerator or pantry panel that needs a long grip. For appliance fronts look at a purpose-built appliance pull such as the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch cabinet pull.

It changes how the door is grasped. The Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection CK-15030 is a round cabinet knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter and the CK-16030 is a round ring knob at the same 1-1/4 inch diameter; the Blackcomb CK-17025 is a square knob at 25mm. All three are single-point knobs. The Emtek Freestone is a finger pull with a 1-7/8 inch projection, which gives a recessed grip rather than a gripped-ball knob. Knobs typically use a single center bore, so the mounting pattern is not interchangeable with a two-hole pull.

It is sized as a cabinet finger pull with a 1-7/8 inch projection, not an appliance pull. For a panel-ready refrigerator or range front, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch cabinet pull is designated an appliance pull and gives the length and grip those doors need. Many buyers run the Schaub appliance pull on the appliance panels and carry a smaller pull across the surrounding cabinetry so the finish reads consistently.

The Emtek Freestone Cabinet Finger Pull is brass throughout, offered in Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Nickel US14, Satin Nickel US15, Flat Black US19, Polished Chrome US26 and Satin Brass US4. If the substrate needs to be steel rather than brass, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is a steel pull with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. That keeps a satin nickel appearance while changing the base metal and the pull geometry to a bar.

Yes. The Freestone is styled Urban Modern on a contemporary theme, which reads well on slab and flat-panel fronts. It comes from Emtek's Schaub collection, so it will sit consistently alongside other Schaub cabinet hardware if you are mixing pulls and knobs across a run.
