Schaub 222 160mm Center to Center Classico Cabinet Pull

The 222 is tapped for M4 metric screws, not the 8-32 machine screws used on most North American cabinet hardware. Your existing screws almost certainly will not thread into it. Order M4 screws long enough for your door or drawer front thickness plus the 5/8 inch base depth of the post.

They are related but not interchangeable. Emtek catalogs a Schaub Collection that includes the Emtek 8405 Select cabinet pulls, the Alexander cabinet pull, the Art Deco cabinet pull and the Bar cabinet pull, each a distinct series. The Schaub 222 is the Classico collection with a 6-3/4 inch overall length, 7/8 inch projection and 160 mm centers. If a drawing or an existing run of cabinets calls out Classico, ordering an Emtek Alexander or Art Deco pull gets a different profile even though both sit under the Schaub name.

The Schaub 222 Classico pull measures 6-3/4 inch overall on 160 mm centers, which needs a fair amount of drawer face. For narrow drawers, the Trimco 553 series drawer pulls are 3 inch center-to-center and the Trimco 562 series comes in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96 mm center-to-center options. The Deltana SBP35 modern square bar pull is 3-1/2 inch. On very narrow faces a knob replaces the pull entirely and needs only a single hole: the Orca Hardware CK-15030 and CK-16030 Bachelor Collection knobs are 1-1/4 inch diameter and the CK-17025 Blackcomb square knob is 25 mm.

Projection is 7/8 inch off the face of the door, so you get roughly that much finger space between the bar and the cabinet front. That's a moderate standoff, fine for a normal grip but tighter than some modern bar pulls, for reference the Omnia 1970 runs a 1-1/4 inch projection and the Omnia 1969 and 1971 sit at 1-3/16 inch. In a narrow galley or a passage where a pull sticks into traffic, the shallower 7/8 inch is the friendlier number.

The 222 Classico is a die cast zinc pull with a plated or painted finish over it. Zinc holds up fine to normal residential and light commercial pulling loads, the wear point is the finish rather than the body, so matte and painted finishes like Matte Black and Matte White will show handling marks in a heavy-traffic kitchen sooner than a plated Polished Chrome or Satin Nickel will. If you want a solid brass body instead for a high-abuse opening, the Deltana SBP35 square bar pull and the Omnia 1968/102 are both solid brass.

The Schaub 222 Classico is a contemporary-style zinc pull with a 5/8 inch base dimension and 7/8 inch projection. Where a heavier bar is wanted, the Deltana SBP35 modern square bar pull is described as heavy-duty solid brass, and the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. The Omnia 1970 carries a 1-1/4 inch projection and the Omnia 1969 and 1971 a 1-3/16 inch projection, all forged solid brass, so they stand further off the face than the 7/8 inch Schaub 222 - worth checking against clearance in a galley aisle.

The Schaub 222 Classico pull is offered in Smooth Satin Nickel (SSN) along with Polished Chrome, Matte Chrome, Gun Metal, Matte Black, Matte White and Signature Satin Brass. If the run also needs a bar pull in satin nickel, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is a steel bar in satin nickel with a 2 inch bar width. Because nickel tone varies by manufacturer and by base material - the Schaub 222 is zinc while the Orca bar is steel - order a sample of each before committing a whole fleet of doors to a mixed-brand mix.

Not necessarily. The Schaub 222 Classico pull takes an M-4 metric screw, which follows from its 160 mm metric center spacing. The Trimco 553 and 562 series are drawer pulls dimensioned in inches - 3 inch on the 553, and 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch or 96 mm on the 562 - and the Omnia 1968/102 is spaced at 4 inch. Where a substitute is spaced in inches, plan on the mounting screws that ship with that pull rather than reusing M-4 hardware, and expect to redrill the cabinet face.

All four are Omnia modern cabinet pulls in forged solid brass, each its own series. The 1968/102 is spaced at 4 inch center-to-center. The 1969 and 1971 each carry a 1-3/16 inch projection, and the 1970 a 1-1/4 inch projection. Against the Schaub 222 Classico, which projects 7/8 inch, any of the Omnia pulls sits further off the cabinet face - the deciding factor on an inset door or where a drawer opens next to a wall return.

Yes, and that's the usual approach on a kitchen: 160 mm pulls on the drawer banks and tall doors, knobs on the upper doors. The 222 belongs to Schaub's Classico collection in a contemporary style, so pair it with other Classico pieces to keep the profile and finish consistent. Emtek also carries the Schaub Collection under its SELECT cabinet hardware line if you need to widen the range while staying in the same family.

No. The SDC SP50 is a 50 mm spindle for door controls - it is the square bar that carries a lever through a door latch, not a graspable pull mounted to a cabinet face. The Schaub 222 Classico is a cabinet pull that mounts on 160 mm centers with M-4 screws. A search for a bar or spindle can surface both, but only one of them attaches to a drawer front.
