Emtek Tribeca Cabinet Pull, Schaub Collection

The Tribeca pull is made in seven center-to-center spacings: 3-1/2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 inches. That range covers standard drawer fronts through the long pulls people run on wide drawer banks and tall pantry or appliance-style doors. Measure hole center to hole center on what is already mounted and match it, and you can reuse the existing bores instead of filling and re-drilling the fronts.

Six finishes: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Brass (US4) and Satin Nickel (US15). Those are standard US finish codes, so if the door hardware or plumbing trim in the room is specified as US15 or US10B you can order the cabinet pull to the same code and get a match rather than a near-miss.

Tribeca is a residential-duty pull. For single-family, condo and apartment unit cabinetry it is the right class of product. For high-traffic institutional casework, dorm, healthcare or hospitality back-of-house, look at a heavier-duty bar pull instead, such as the Deltana SBP35 Modern Square Bar Pull, a heavy-duty solid brass pull at 3-1/2 inch center-to-center.

3-1/2 inches is the shortest center-to-center Tribeca is made in, so on a narrow front or a slim drawer it will not work. Two ways around it: a cabinet knob, which is single-bore and needs almost no width, such as the Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection round knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter or the Blackcomb square knob at 25mm, or a shorter drawer pull like the Trimco 553 Series at 3 inch center-to-center.

Only if the old pull is on the same hole spacing. Tribeca is a two-post pull offered at 3-1/2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 inch center-to-center, so a straight swap works when your existing bores measure one of those. If your cabinets were drilled at 96mm or another metric spacing, that will not line up. The Trimco 562 Series is made in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96mm ctc, which is the option to reach for on metric-bored European boxes.

The Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull is made in brass and includes a 4 inch center-to-center size. The Omnia 1968/102 modern cabinet pull is forged solid brass with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, so it matches the same bore layout in the same base metal. Omnia's adjacent models in that family cover the same modern look with stated projections: the 1969 and 1971 are forged solid brass at 1-3/16 inch projection, and the 1970 is forged solid brass at 1-1/4 inch projection. The Tribeca stands off the drawer face at 1-7/8 inch projection, so if knuckle clearance in a tight galley or a passing appliance door is driving the choice, the Omnia models sit noticeably closer to the face.

The Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull projects 1-7/8 inch off the face. In a tight aisle, a butler's pantry, or anywhere a drawer front sits opposite an appliance door, that stand-off is the spec that decides the job. The Omnia 1970 modern cabinet pull is forged solid brass at 1-1/4 inch projection, and the Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1971 are forged solid brass at 1-3/16 inch projection, all of which sit tighter to the face. If you want no projection at all in the walking path, the Schaub Sabre edge pull family mounts flush to the edge rather than standing proud, and is offered at 3 inch (10010), 4 inch (10011), and 5 inch (10012) center to center, matching three of the Tribeca hole spacings.

Two families come up in searches next to the Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull but do not share its two-hole center-to-center mounting. The Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection round cabinet pull knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter (CK-15030), the Bachelor round ring knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter (CK-16030), and the Blackcomb square knob at 25mm diameter (CK-17025) are all cabinet knobs, which mount on a single center hole rather than the Tribeca's pair of bored holes. Swapping a Tribeca for one of those means the second hole is left exposed. The Schaub Sabre 10010, 10011, and 10012 are edge pulls, which are stated at 3 inch, 4 inch, and 5 inch center to center but mount at the edge of the door or drawer rather than on the face. If the existing bore is a face-mounted pair, stay with a pull on a matching center-to-center spacing.

Projection is 1-7/8 inches on the Tribeca pull. That is the clearance you need to check against anything next to the cabinet, a wall return, an adjacent appliance, or a door that swings past the drawer front. It also means about that much room for fingers behind the grip, which is what makes it comfortable on a heavy drawer.

The Tribeca runs up to 12 inch center-to-center, which is long enough to read correctly on a tall door or a wide appliance panel, so you can keep one design across the whole kitchen and just step the length up. If you would rather use a purpose-built appliance pull, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch pull is catalogued as an appliance pull. Mixing the two is common: appliance pull on the panels, matching drawer pulls elsewhere.

Tribeca is an Art Deco design in an American Classic vein, so it carries shaping and detail rather than reading as a straight tube. If you want the flat modern look instead, the Omnia 1968/102 forged solid brass pull at 4 inch center-to-center or the Omnia 1970 with a 1-1/4 inch projection sit closer to the wall and give a plainer profile. Choose on the cabinet style: Tribeca for shaker, inset and traditional millwork, the bar pulls for flat-slab doors.

Two decisions per pull: center-to-center and finish. Sizes run 3-1/2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 inches; finishes are Flat Black US19, Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Chrome US26, Polished Nickel US14, Satin Brass US4 and Satin Nickel US15. Common approach on a kitchen is one finish throughout, a short size on the upper doors and top drawers, and the longer sizes stepped up on the wide lower drawers and pantry. Count the openings by size before ordering, since the quantity split by length is what people get wrong.

The Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull is a cabinet pull, and its largest sizes run to 10 inch and 12 inch center to center, which is the range people reach for on a tall panel. For a true appliance application, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks 8 inch cabinet pull is built as an appliance pull, which is the part class specified for refrigerator and range panels rather than drawer fronts. The practical decision is the panel: an appliance pull is designed to be gripped and swung with the weight of a panel door behind it, where a cabinet pull is sized for a drawer box. If you are matching a single visual family across both the cabinetry and the paneled appliances, order the Tribeca for the cabinet runs and specify the appliance pull separately for the panels.

The Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull is a residential brass pull in an Art Deco profile. For casework in a school, clinic, or municipal building where the specification calls for a commercial drawer pull rather than a decorative one, the Trimco 553 series drawer pull is offered at 3 inch center to center and the Trimco 562 series covers 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center to center. Those three spacings overlap the Tribeca's 3-1/2 inch and 4 inch sizes, so an existing bore pattern carries over. The Deltana SBP35 is a heavy-duty solid brass square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch center to center if you want the heavier build in the same brass base metal.

Yes. The Emtek Tribeca cabinet pull is finished in Satin Nickel (US15), alongside Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel (US14), and Satin Brass (US4), so a satin nickel Tribeca can be ordered directly to match an existing run. If the match needs to extend to a heavier bar-style pull in the same tone, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is a steel pull with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. Note that the Orca is steel where the Tribeca is brass, which changes how the two age against each other over time in a wet area such as a bath vanity or a laundry.

No power, no wiring, no electronics of any kind. Tribeca is a mechanical grip pull that mounts through the drawer front on its posts, so there is nothing to coordinate with an electrician and nothing to specify beyond size and finish.
