Schaub 1208 Modo Offset Recessed Cabinet Pull, 3-7/8" x 3-7/8", Zinc with Break-Off Mounting Screws Included

The Schaub 1208 Modo Offset Recessed Cabinet Pull brings a clean, contemporary profile to cabinetry with a low-profile, offset design that reads as nearly flush when the door is closed. Part of the Modo collection, this recessed pull measures 3-7/8" x 3-7/8" overall, with a 3-3/8" x 3-3/8" base and a 3/4" projection that together create a streamlined, comfortable grip. Constructed from zinc, the pull is engineered for smooth, reliable operation on cabinet doors and drawers, and it ships complete with two break-off screws sized M4x12 for precise, tool-ready installation without the need to source separate hardware.

Schaub 1208-MB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How deep does the Schaub Modo 1208 pull sit into the door or drawer front?
Projection is 3/4 inch, so the body needs three quarters of an inch of depth behind the face of the panel. On a standard 3/4 inch cabinet door that means the pocket goes right through, which is how these mount, so plan for the back of the door to be open at the pull. If the panel backs onto a drawer box, a slide bracket, or a blind corner, check that nothing sits tight behind that 3-3/8 inch pocket.
2) Is a recessed pull the right choice, or should I use a surface-mounted bar pull?
A recessed pull sits flush in the panel with nothing protruding into the room, which is why it gets used on sliding doors, pocket panels, tight galley runs, appliance garages, and anywhere a passing hip or cart would catch a bar. The tradeoff is fabrication: the Modo 1208 needs a 3-3/8 inch square pocket machined into the front. A surface bar pull, like the Deltana SBP35 square bar pull or an Omnia 1968 with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, only needs two drilled holes and can be retrofitted to existing doors in minutes. If you are ordering new fronts, the recessed pull is easy to spec; if you are updating cabinets already hung, the surface pull is the far simpler job.
3) Will the Schaub Modo 1208 work on a sliding or pocket cabinet door?
Yes, and that is the case it is built for. Because the pull recesses into the panel with a 3/4 inch projection into the front and nothing standing proud of the face, a sliding door can pass another panel without the hardware colliding. The 3-3/8 inch square pocket does need to land clear of the track hardware and any door stile too narrow to take it, so confirm you have a flat area at least 3-3/8 inches across where you want the pull.
4) Can the Schaub 1208 recessed pull be retrofitted into cabinets that already have drilled bar pulls?
Not without new fronts or a router. Existing bar pulls leave two small drilled holes on a center-to-center spacing; the Modo 1208 needs a 3-3/8 inch square pocket cut through the panel, which will not hide old holes and cannot be dropped into them. For a straight swap on drilled fronts, stay with a surface pull that matches your existing spacing, such as the Trimco 553 Series at 3 inch center-to-center or the Trimco 562 Series in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center. Spec the 1208 when you are making or replacing the fronts.
5) What is the difference between the Schaub 1208 Modo recessed pull and a standard surface-mounted cabinet bar pull like the Emtek Bar Cabinet Pull?
The Schaub 1208 Modo is a recessed pull: it is a 3-7/8" x 3-7/8" plate with a 3-3/8" x 3-3/8" base dimension and a 3/4" projection, so the grip is formed by a pocket in the face of the door or drawer rather than a bar standing off it. The Emtek Bar Cabinet Pull is a bar-style cabinet pull that mounts on the face and is gripped from behind. If the door sits in a passage, against an appliance, or in a flush contemporary run where nothing may protrude, the 1208 is the form that suits; if a hand-filling grip is wanted, the bar form is.
6) The Schaub 1208 Modo needs a pocket routed into the door - what mounts with just two holes instead?
The Schaub 1208 Modo is a recessed pull with a 3-3/8" x 3-3/8" base that sets into the door face and fastens with two M4x12 break-off screws. Where a shop cannot rout a pocket, a center-to-center pull drilled through the face is the straightforward alternative: the Trimco 553 drawer pull is 3" center-to-center, the Trimco 562 comes in 3-1/2", 4", and 96mm center-to-center, and the Omnia 1968/102 is 4" center-to-center. Confirm the spacing against the existing holes before ordering so the door face is not redrilled.
7) What finishes does the Schaub Modo 1208 recessed pull come in?
Four finishes: Gun Metal, Matte Black, Polished Rose Gold, and Signature Satin Brass. Matte Black and Gun Metal are the ones that read neutral against most cabinet colors on a multi-unit or spec job; Polished Rose Gold and Signature Satin Brass are the statement options. If you are standardizing across a building, pick one and order the whole run at once so you are not matching across production batches.
8) What screws come with the Schaub 1208 Modo recessed pull, and why are they break-off?
Two M4 x 12 break-off screws ship with the pull. Break-off screws let you snug the pull to whatever panel thickness you have and then snap the excess length off flush, so you are not hunting for a screw length to match a 5/8, 3/4, or thicker front. You do not need to order separate machine screws for a standard install.
9) Is the Schaub 1208 Modo pull solid brass or zinc?
Zinc is the base material on the Modo 1208, with the finish applied over it. That matters if you are cross-shopping: the Omnia 1968, 1969, 1970, and 1971 cabinet pulls are forged solid brass, and the Deltana SBP35 is solid brass as well. For a recessed pull the load path is different from a bar pull anyway, since the pull is captured in the panel rather than cantilevered off two screws, but if a solid brass substrate is written into your spec, the Omnia or Deltana surface pulls are where to look.
10) Is an Emtek Select cabinet pull from the Schaub collection the same thing as the Schaub 1208 Modo?
No. The Emtek 8405 Select is a cabinet knob/pull in the Emtek SELECT series carrying the Schaub collection name, and the Emtek Alexander and Emtek Art Deco cabinet pulls sit in that same Schaub collection grouping under their own Alexander and Art Deco series. The Schaub 1208 belongs to the MODO collection and is a recessed pull, 3-7/8" x 3-7/8" overall with a 3/4" projection. Sharing the Schaub name does not make those Emtek pulls a drop-in for a routed Modo pocket - they are surface-mounted knob and pull forms.
11) For a run of cabinets where some doors take the Schaub 1208 Modo, what is the simplest hardware for the small doors that do not need a full pull?
The Schaub 1208 Modo is a 3-7/8" x 3-7/8" recessed pull - a fairly large footprint for a narrow door or a small drawer. Where a single point of grip will do, the Orca Hardware CK-15030 round cabinet knob is 1-1/4" diameter, the CK-16030 is a 1-1/4" round ring knob, and the CK-17025 Blackcomb square knob is 25mm. Knobs take one center hole rather than a routed pocket, so the prep for those openings is different from the Modo doors in the same run.
12) How does the projection of the Schaub 1208 Modo compare with modern Omnia cabinet pulls?
The Schaub 1208 Modo has a 3/4" projection, and that dimension is the depth of the recessed pocket rather than a standoff from the face. Among the modern Omnia pulls, the 1969 and the 1971 each list a 1-3/16" projection and the 1970 lists 1-1/4", measured as how far the pull stands off the door. For a tight corridor, an appliance panel, or a door that swings past a wall return, the Modo keeps the face flush; the Omnia pulls give a grip clearance in front of the door.
13) Can I mix the Schaub Modo 1208 with other Schaub pulls in the same kitchen?
The 1208 is part of Schaub's MODO collection in a contemporary style, so it lines up visually with other MODO pieces. If you want surface pulls or knobs alongside the recessed pull on the same job, the Emtek SELECT 8405 cabinet pulls and the Emtek Alexander, Art Deco, and Bar cabinet pulls are all offered as Schaub Collection pieces, so you can pair a recessed pull on the sliding or flush panels with a surface pull on the swinging doors and drawers.
14) Is the Schaub 1208 large enough for a full-hand grip, or is it a fingertip pull?
The opening is 3-3/8 inches square with a 3/4 inch depth behind it, which is a genuine four-finger grip rather than a fingertip notch. That is the practical difference from a small round knob, like the Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection knobs at 1-1/4 inch diameter. If the panel is heavy, a sliding door on a stiff track or a tall pantry front, the larger square opening gives you something to actually pull against.
15) We specified the Schaub 1208 Modo in matte black - what other contemporary pulls come close if the finish has to change?
The Schaub 1208 Modo Offset recessed pull is stocked in Gun Metal, Matte Black, Polished Rose Gold, and Signature Satin Brass. If the palette moves toward a warm metal in a surface-mounted form, the Omnia 1968/102 and Omnia 1971 are forged solid brass modern pulls, and the Deltana SBP35 is a solid brass modern square bar pull at 3-1/2". For a cool machined look, the Orca CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel in satin nickel with a 2" bar width. Match the new hardware against the hinges and any appliance pulls in the same room before committing the run.
16) Will an SDC SP50 spindle work with a Schaub 1208 Modo pull?
No. The SDC SP50 is a 50mm spindle used in door control hardware, not cabinet hardware. The Schaub 1208 Modo is a recessed cabinet pull that fastens with two M4x12 break-off screws through the pocket - there is no spindle, latch, or lock mechanism involved. Order the SP50 only against a door control application.
