Schaub 211046 12" Center to Center Aspero Cabinet Pull

It threads M4, which is metric, not the 8-32 used on most North American cabinet hardware. If you are reusing screws from an older pull or drawer box, they will not thread in. Use the M4 screws sized to your drawer front thickness.

The Schaub 211046 Aspero pull is made of zinc and aluminum with a 12 inch center-to-center spacing. If the specification calls for solid brass, the Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern cabinet pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, and the Deltana SBP35 is a heavy-duty solid brass modern square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch. Both are considerably shorter than the Aspero, so they suit drawer fronts rather than the tall appliance or pantry doors a 12 inch pull is normally used on.

A 12 inch center-to-center pull like the Schaub 211046 measures 13-1/4 inch overall, so it needs a tall door or a wide drawer front. On a narrow door, a knob is the usual substitute: the Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection round cabinet knob is 1-1/4 inch diameter, the matching round ring knob is also 1-1/4 inch, and the Orca Blackcomb Collection square knob is 25mm. Each mounts on a single hole rather than a two-hole bore.

Projection is 1-3/8 inches from the face, with a 3/4 inch base dimension. That gives usable finger clearance on a full-height door or a deep drawer, and it is worth checking against adjacent doors or an appliance panel so the pull does not collide when the door swings.

Four: Brushed Nickel (BN), Gold Rande (GR), Matte Black (MB) and Matte White (MW). Matte White is the unusual one in this group, and it is the pick when the cabinetry is painted white and you want the pull to disappear rather than contrast.

Base material is zinc and aluminum, a cast and extruded construction rather than solid brass. It is fine for residential and multi-family kitchen and bath cabinetry. If your spec calls for solid brass, look at the Deltana SBP35 Modern Square Bar Pull or the Omnia 1969, both forged or solid brass.

The Aspero 211046 is a contemporary style pull at 12 inch center-to-center, sized for tall doors and appliance panels. For the drawer banks below, the Trimco 553 Series drawer pulls come in 3 inch center-to-center and the Trimco 562 Series offers 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center options, so you can hold a consistent spacing across a run of drawers of differing widths.

The Schaub 211046 Aspero stands off 1-3/8 inch from the face. Among modern alternatives, the Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1971 are forged solid brass pulls with a 1-3/16 inch projection and the Omnia 1970 has a 1-1/4 inch projection, so all three sit slightly closer to the door face than the Aspero.

Aspero is a contemporary-style collection, so it pairs with plain geometric knobs rather than traditional ones. From what we stock, the Orca Hardware Blackcomb square knob at 25mm or the Bachelor Collection round knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter read correctly next to it. Finishes are matched by eye, not by a shared finish code across brands.

The Schaub 211046 Aspero is a contemporary style pull. For a more decorative look, the Emtek Art Deco Cabinet Pull comes from the Art Deco series and the Emtek Alexander Cabinet Pull from the Alexander series, both in Emtek's Schaub Collection. Both function as cabinet knob/pulls, so they serve the same opening duty with a different profile.

The Schaub 211046 Aspero uses M4 thread mounting screws. Metric M4 is common on contemporary pulls, but US-made lines such as the Trimco 553 and 562 Series drawer pulls and the Deltana SBP35 solid brass bar pull are separate product families, so confirm the screws supplied with whichever pull you substitute rather than reusing the Aspero hardware. Screw length also has to suit the door or drawer front thickness.
