Emtek Prosser Cabinet Knob, Schaub Collection

The Prosser knob is made in two diameters, 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch. Both are offered across the same six finishes. A common approach on a kitchen is the 1-1/4 inch on wide drawer fronts where there is more face to balance and the 1 inch on upper doors, but nothing stops you running a single size throughout for a uniform look.

A mounting screw is included with each knob. Standard cabinet knob screws are 8-32 machine screws, so if your doors or drawer fronts are thicker than typical (a five-piece front with an applied panel, for instance) you may want longer 8-32 screws on hand.

The Prosser cabinet knob is a solid brass cabinet knob offered in 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch sizes. For a same-size solid brass knob, 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 also a 1 inch diameter solid brass knob with 7/8 inch center to center in a modern oval slot shape. Both are round or oval turned brass knobs in the same size class as the 1 inch Prosser, differing in profile: the Prosser is styled as Transitional Heritage, while the Cafe knobs read modern.

The Prosser cabinet knob ships with a mounting screw and installs through a single bore. Watch the Schaub 10030 Cafe and Schaub 10040 Cafe knobs: both are listed with a 7/8 inch center to center dimension, which tells you they are drilled as two-hole knobs rather than a single center bore. If you are replacing existing single-bore knobs, that is a boring change, not a drop-in swap.

The Prosser is classified as residential hardware. For apartment turns, model homes, custom kitchens and millwork it is squarely in range; for a high-traffic institutional casework program you would normally be specifying to a commercial cabinet hardware standard instead.

Yes. The Prosser knob is solid brass throughout. If brass is not required, the Schaub 1200 Modo cabinet knob is 16 mm and built with zinc and aluminum construction. That is a much smaller knob face than the 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch Prosser sizes, so check it against your drawer scale before you standardize on it.

The Prosser cabinet knob is a Transitional Heritage style round brass knob. For a craftsman or mission look, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob is from the 18-Mission Collection, and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob is another round knob option in the 19-Whistler Collection. Both serve the same job as a single-screw cabinet knob.

Prosser knobs carry SPC86469 part numbers for the 1 inch and SPC86470 for the 1-1/4 inch, with the finish code appended. For example SPC86469US4 is the 1 inch in Satin Brass, and SPC86470US19, SPC86470US26 and SPC86470US4 are the 1-1/4 inch in Flat Black, Polished Chrome and Satin Brass.

Emtek lists the Prosser under its Transitional Heritage style, part of the American Designer theme. That puts it between traditional and contemporary, so it sits comfortably in a shaker or transitional kitchen without reading as period reproduction or as strictly modern.

For a straightforward solid brass round knob, Delaney Hardware makes one in its Cabinet Knobs series. Orca Hardware also offers round cabinet knobs, the CK-18032 Mission and the CK-19032 Whistler. The Emtek Prosser is the more design-forward option, in solid brass across six finishes and two diameters.
