Schaub 5018A 18" Center to Center Pub House Knurled Appliance Pull

Center-to-center on the 5018A Pub House appliance pull is 18 inches, so it drops onto a panel already drilled at 18 inch spacing. Overall length is 19-1/4 inches, which is what you need clearance for on the panel face, not the 18 inches. If the existing holes are anything other than 18 inches apart you will be redrilling.

The 5018A uses 1/4 inch thread screws, which is the heavier appliance-pull thread rather than the 8-32 machine screw used on ordinary cabinet pulls. Panel thickness varies, so measure the panel and order screw length to suit; the thread size itself is what has to match your panel's tapped holes or through-bores.

An appliance pull like the Schaub 5018A is the right call on a panel-ready refrigerator, freezer, or dishwasher door: it's built long at 18 inch centers with 1/4 inch screws so the load spreads across two widely separated posts. A standard cabinet pull on 3 or 4 inch centers concentrates the pull on a short span and small screws, which is fine on drawers but works loose on a heavy door. Use the short pulls for the cabinetry and the appliance pull for the appliance panels.

The Schaub 5018A is a solid brass appliance pull with 18 inch center to center spacing and a 2 inch projection. If you want to stay in solid brass but move to a different maker, the Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass cabinet pull with 4 inch center to center spacing, and the Deltana SBP35 is a heavy-duty solid brass square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch center to center. Both are cabinet-scale pulls rather than appliance-scale, so for a refrigerator or panel-ready dishwasher door where the fabricator drilled 18 inch centers, the 5018A is the one that lands on the existing holes.

The Schaub 5018A is an appliance pull at 18 inch center to center, which is sized for a refrigerator or dishwasher panel rather than a drawer front. For the surrounding cabinetry, 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, which covers the usual drawer bores. The Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1970 modern cabinet pulls are forged solid brass at 1-3/16 inch and 1-1/4 inch projection respectively, if you want the cabinet pulls to sit closer to the face than the 5018A's 2 inch projection.

The Schaub 5018A stands 2 inch off the face. Where a galley aisle or an adjacent wall return will not take that, the Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1971 modern cabinet pulls are forged solid brass at 1-3/16 inch projection and the Omnia 1970 at 1-1/4 inch projection. All three stay in solid brass like the 5018A, but they are cabinet pulls, so confirm the center to center against the 18 inch spread before swapping them onto an appliance panel.

Projection is 2 inches from the face of the panel, with 3/4 inch posts carrying the bar. That gives a full hand behind the grip, which is what you want on a refrigerator or freezer panel that takes a hard pull. Check swing clearance against an adjacent wall or return cabinet before you set it.

Solid brass base material, not zinc casting. That matters on an appliance pull more than on a drawer pull, because the bar takes the whole weight of a heavy door every time it opens and a cast pull works loose at the posts. The knurled bar also keeps grip when hands are wet.

Five finishes: Polished Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Matte Black, Polished Nickel, and Signature Satin Brass. Both nickels are offered, so you can match either a brushed or a bright package without stepping to a different collection, and the Pub House knurled bar carries through to the smaller cabinet pulls in the same collection for a consistent run of doors and drawers.

For the cabinet and drawer runs alongside a panel-ready appliance, step down to a shorter pull. The Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass cabinet pull at 4 inch center-to-center, and the Trimco 562 Series drawer pulls come in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm centers. The Trimco 553 Series is fixed at 3 inch centers. Any of those handle drawer fronts where a 19-1/4 inch bar simply will not lay out.

The Schaub 5018A Pub House is solid brass with a knurled grip. If the specification calls for steel, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-Pull Bar is a steel pull with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. The 5018A carries 18 inch center to center spacing and a 19-1/4 inch overall length, so on an appliance panel already bored for that spread the Orca bar is a different footprint and would need new holes.

Knobs will not. The Orca Hardware CK-15030 and CK-16030 Bachelor Collection are round cabinet knobs at 1-1/4 inch diameter, and the CK-17025 Blackcomb Collection is a square cabinet knob at 25mm diameter. All three are single-point knobs, while the Schaub 5018A mounts on two 1/4 inch screws at 18 inch center to center. A knob gives no two-hand grip on a heavy appliance door and does not cover the existing bore pattern.

Emtek carries the Schaub Collection under its own part numbers: the Emtek 8405 Select cabinet pulls, plus the Alexander, Art Deco, and Bar cabinet pulls, all catalogued as Schaub Collection cabinet knob and pull items. Those are separate series from Pub House, so they are a design-family alternative rather than a dimensional match. The Schaub 5018A is the Pub House knurled appliance pull at 18 inch center to center with a 3/4 inch base dimension, and any of the Emtek series would need their own center to center confirmed against the panel bores.

Contemporary styling, from the Pub House collection. The knurled bar reads as modern with an industrial edge rather than period traditional, and it pairs with flat-panel or slab cabinetry more comfortably than with raised-panel millwork. For a period kitchen the Emtek Art Deco or Alexander pulls in the Schaub Collection are the other direction.

Each 5018A is sold as a single pull, so a side-by-side refrigerator and freezer column needs two, ordered in the same finish. Buy them together in one go: finish batches in polished and satin brass can vary slightly between production runs, and on a paired column the two doors sit inches apart where any difference shows.
