Schaub 527-BN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Schaub 527 Menlo Park pull fit my existing 5 inch drilled holes?
Yes. The 527 Menlo Park arched pull is drilled 5 inches center to center, so it drops onto cabinet doors or drawer fronts already bored on 5 inch spacing. Overall length is 5-1/2 inches, so the posts sit just 1/4 inch in from each end. If your existing holes are on any other spacing, the holes will not line up and there is no adjustment in the pull.
2) What screws come with the Schaub 527 pull, and will they work on a thick shaker drawer front?
The 527 takes 8/32 screws and ships at 1 inch length. That covers a standard 3/4 inch drawer front or door with thread left to engage the pull. On a thicker front, a five-piece drawer face, or anywhere you are going through a drawer box plus an applied front, 1 inch is short and you will need longer 8-32 machine screws. The thread size does not change, only the length.
3) My cabinets are drilled 3 or 4 inches center to center. What can I use instead of the Schaub 527?
The 527 will not fit those holes, since it is fixed at 5 inch center to center. For 3 inch spacing, the Trimco 553 Series drawer pull is drilled 3 inch ctc. For 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, or 96mm, the Trimco 562 Series covers all three, and the Deltana SBP35 square bar pull is a 3-1/2 inch. The Omnia 1968/102 is a 4 inch center to center modern pull in forged solid brass. Re-drilling for a 5 inch pull means new holes that will not be hidden by the old ones on most fronts.
4) What is the closest alternative to the Schaub 527 Menlo Park pull if I want solid brass instead of zinc?
The Schaub 527 Menlo Park arched cabinet pull has a zinc base material and a 1-1/4 inch projection. If solid brass is the requirement, the Omnia 1970 modern cabinet pull is forged solid brass and also carries a 1-1/4 inch projection, so the hand clearance off the door face stays the same. Omnia's 1969 and 1971 modern pulls are also forged solid brass, both at a 1-3/16 inch projection, which sits slightly closer to the face. Confirm center-to-center separately, since the 527 is drilled at 5 inch centers.
5) My cabinet doors are already drilled at 4 inch centers - what pull works instead of the Schaub 527?
The Schaub 527 Menlo Park is drilled at 5 inch center-to-center, so it will not land on a 4 inch bore pattern without redrilling. The Omnia 1968/102 modern cabinet pull is a forged solid brass pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing and drops onto that existing pattern. For narrower existing bores, the Trimco 562 series drawer pulls are offered in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center, and the Trimco 553 series is 3 inch center-to-center.
6) How much hand clearance does the Schaub Menlo Park 527 pull give in front of the cabinet?
Projection is 1-1/4 inches off the face of the door, with a 3/4 inch base dimension where it meets the wood. That 1-1/4 inches is the working clearance for fingers, which matters in a galley kitchen or a tight laundry run where a pull that stands proud catches sleeves and hips. It is also the number to check against any adjacent door swing or an appliance panel sitting close by.
7) What finishes does the Schaub 527 Menlo Park pull come in for matching a whole kitchen or a multi-unit turn?
Seven finishes: Satin Nickel (SN), Brushed Nickel (BN), Polished Nickel (PN), Polished Chrome (PC), Matte Black (MB), Ancient Bronze (ABZ), and Signature Satin Brass (SSB). For a property manager standardizing across units, order the whole run in one finish code and one dye lot where you can, since nickel finishes in particular read differently between batches.
8) What should I use instead of the Schaub 527 on a high-traffic commercial or multi-family cabinet run?
The Schaub 527 Menlo Park is a zinc-based transitional pull. Where the duty cycle argues for a heavier substrate, the Deltana SBP35 modern square bar pull is a heavy-duty solid brass pull at 3-1/2 inch, and the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. Both are a different visual read than the arched Menlo Park profile, so treat them as a substitution on material and form rather than a like-for-like appearance match.
9) Can I substitute a cabinet knob for the Schaub 527 pull?
No - a knob is a single-screw part and the Schaub 527 Menlo Park is a two-post pull on 5 inch centers with 8/32 x 1 inch screws, so a knob leaves one of the two existing bores exposed. The Orca Hardware Bachelor collection round cabinet knob and round ring knob are both 1-1/4 inch diameter knobs, and the Blackcomb collection square knob is 25mm diameter. Those are the right call on a fresh single-bore door or drawer, not as a drop-in for a pull that is already bored for two posts.
10) What else does Schaub make in the Menlo Park collection if I need knobs and other sizes to match?
The 527 is part of Schaub's Menlo Park collection in a transitional arched profile, so it is meant to be run alongside the rest of that collection rather than mixed with another series. Note that Emtek sells cabinet pulls under a Schaub collection banner as well, including the Emtek 8405 Select, the Alexander, the Art Deco, and the Bar cabinet pull, which are separate designs and will not visually match Menlo Park.
11) I want a lower profile pull than the Schaub 527. What sits closer to the cabinet face?
The 527 stands 1-1/4 inches off the face. If you need it tighter, the Omnia 1969 and the Omnia 1971 modern cabinet pulls both project 1-3/16 inches, which buys you a small amount back in a tight walkway. For a knob rather than a pull, the Orca Hardware Bachelor Collection round knob and the Blackcomb square knob are single-hole parts and a different mounting pattern entirely.
12) I need a simpler flat-bar look than the Schaub 527 arched profile - what else is available?
The Schaub 527 Menlo Park is an arched transitional pull with a 3/4 inch base dimension and 5-1/2 inch overall length. For a squarer, more modern bar profile, the Deltana SBP35 is a modern square bar pull in solid brass at 3-1/2 inch, and the Emtek Bar cabinet pull from the Schaub collection is a straight bar design. The Omnia 1969 and 1971 modern cabinet pulls are forged solid brass at a 1-3/16 inch projection and read modern rather than transitional.
