Schaub 283-DFBZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I drill one hole for the Schaub 283, or does it need two?
It is a single-screw knob. One 8/32 machine screw through the door or drawer front, so a single bore is all the prep you need. That also makes it a straight swap for an existing single-hole knob without patching.
2) What is a solid brass alternative to the Schaub 283 octagonal cabinet knob?
The Schaub 283 Firenza knob is a zinc-base knob with a 1-1/8 inch diameter. If a solid brass body is required for the job, the Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob is a brass cabinet knob option, and the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty solid brass round knob with a groove detail at 1-3/4 inch diameter. The Deltana is a noticeably larger face than the 1-1/8 inch Schaub, so it reads differently on small drawer fronts.
3) How far does the Schaub 283 knob stand off the cabinet face?
Projection is 15/16 inch, so the knob sits just under an inch off the door face. The base that meets the door measures 1/2 inch. That combination gives enough finger clearance for a grip without the knob catching on an adjacent door or an inset frame.
4) What finishes does the Schaub 283 octagonal knob come in?
Three: Dark Firenza Bronze (DFBZ), Light Firenza Bronze (LFBZ), and Firenza Silver (FS). All three are Firenza collection finishes, so the knob matches other Firenza pieces on the same run of cabinetry.
5) Is a 1-1/8 inch knob big enough for kitchen cabinet doors, or should I go larger?
At 1-1/8 inch diameter the Schaub 283 is a standard door-and-drawer knob size, comfortable to grip on doors and small drawers. If you want a heavier visual weight on large drawer fronts, the Deltana KRB175 runs 1-3/4 inch diameter. Many installers mix: knobs on doors, pulls on wide drawers.
6) I need to match Schaub hardware but want more decorative options. What else is there?
Emtek sells the Schaub collection under its own program, including the Emtek 8665 Select cabinet knobs, the Allerton knob, the Art Deco knob, and the Astoria glass knob. Those give you glass and period-styled options alongside the Firenza 283 if one collection does not cover every opening.
7) If I want a faceted or period look but not the Firenza octagon, what other knobs work?
The Schaub 283 is a traditional-style octagonal knob from the Firenza collection. For a different period shape, the Emtek Art Deco Cabinet Knob in the Schaub collection carries a deco profile, and the Emtek Astoria Glass Cabinet Knob is a glass-bodied knob in the same Schaub collection. The Emtek Allerton Cabinet Knob is another Schaub-collection shape. All three are cabinet knob/pull styles, so they cover the same cabinetry role with a different face.
8) We are standardizing a multi-family cabinet package on a plain round knob instead of the Schaub 283 - what should we spec?
The Schaub 283 is an octagonal traditional knob. For a plain round face across a unit turn package, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission Round Cabinet Knob and the Orca Hardware CK-19032 Whistler Cabinet Knob are both cabinet knobs in their own collections, the 18-Mission and 19-Whistler respectively. Both serve the same cabinet knob function as the 283 while dropping the faceted octagon profile.
9) Which knob gives a larger grip than the Schaub 283 for arthritic or ADA-minded users?
The Schaub 283 measures 1-1/8 inch in diameter with a 15/16 inch projection, which is a compact face. The Deltana KRB175 is a 1-3/4 inch diameter round solid brass knob, a substantially larger gripping surface, and it is built as a heavy-duty knob. If the goal is an easier grasp on kitchen or casework doors, the larger diameter is the more practical choice.
10) What style of cabinetry does the Firenza octagonal knob suit?
Traditional. The octagonal profile and the bronze or silver Firenza finishes read well on raised-panel and shaker-style doors. For a cleaner or craftsman look, the Orca CK-18032 Mission round knob or the Orca CK-19032 Whistler knob are different directions in the same size class.
