Schaub 570 1-1/4" Atherton Hammered Cabinet Knob

The Atherton 570 knob uses an 8/32 machine screw, which is the standard cabinet knob thread, so it mounts through any door or drawer front already bored for a single-hole knob. Projection is 1-1/8 inches off the face, with a 3/4 inch base where it meets the wood. If your existing knobs came off an 8/32 screw, this drops straight into the same hole.

Knob diameter is 1-1/4 inches with a 3/4 inch base and 1-1/8 inch projection. That projection is what gives you finger room behind the knob, so a full hand grip on a loaded drawer is comfortable. If you want a noticeably larger knob to pull on, the Deltana KRB175 is a 1-3/4 inch diameter round knob in solid brass.

The Schaub 570 Atherton is a 1-1/4 inch diameter knob in solid brass. If you want more knob face to grab, the Deltana KRB175 is a round knob with a groove in solid brass at 1-3/4 inch diameter, a half inch larger across. The Deltana is a plain round profile with a groove rather than the hammered Atherton texture, so it reads smoother on the door front. Both are solid brass bodies, so they take the same class of finishes and wear the same way on a kitchen or millwork run.

They are related but not interchangeable parts. Emtek sells a Schaub Collection line that includes the Emtek 8665 Select cabinet knobs, the Emtek Allerton cabinet knob, the Emtek Art Deco cabinet knob, and the Emtek Astoria glass cabinet knob. Those are their own series - Emtek SELECT, Allerton, Art Deco, and Astoria - and each is catalogued by Emtek as a cabinet knob/pull. The Schaub 570 is the Atherton collection at 1-1/4 inch diameter with a hammered face. If a submittal or a punch list calls out Atherton specifically, ordering an Emtek Schaub Collection knob will not satisfy it - match the collection name, not just the Schaub name.

The Schaub 570 uses an 8/32 thread and screw size, which is the common cabinet knob thread, so it lands on a standard single-hole knob bore. Peer knobs in the same class - the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob, the Deltana KRB175 round knob, and the Orca CK-18032 mission round cabinet knob - are all single-hole cabinet knobs as well, so a knob-for-knob swap is a screw change, not a drilling change. What does change is what sits on the face: the 570 projects 1-1/8 inch off the front with a 3/4 inch base, so confirm clearance against adjacent doors and appliance fronts before you standardize a whole run.

The Emtek Astoria glass cabinet knob is the one to watch. It sits in Emtek's Schaub Collection and is catalogued as a cabinet knob/pull, so it turns up alongside Schaub knobs, but it is a glass knob in the Astoria series rather than a solid brass hammered knob. The Schaub 570 Atherton is solid brass with a hammered traditional face. If the intent is a metal knob that ages with the rest of the brass hardware in the room, the Astoria is a different material decision, not a like-for-like swap.

Solid brass is the base material, not zinc or plated pot metal. That matters on a hospitality or multi-family refit where knobs get pulled thousands of times, since the brass body carries the thread rather than a cast insert that can strip. It is a hammered face in a traditional style.

Four finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze, Polished Chrome, Polished Nickel, and Satin Brass. If you are matching existing brass hardware, note that Satin Brass and Polished Nickel read very differently under kitchen lighting, so pull one knob before committing a whole run of cabinets.

A knob like the Atherton 570 needs a single bore and no center-to-center measurement, so it is the simpler retrofit and the safer choice when you are replacing mixed hardware or do not know the old hole spacing. Pulls need two holes at a fixed center-to-center spacing and are usually preferred on wide, heavy drawers. A common split is knobs on doors, pulls on large drawers. The Emtek 8665 Select line is offered as a cabinet knob/pull if you want both formats from one family.

The Atherton 570 carries a hammered surface in a traditional style, so it shows a worked texture across the face. For a smooth solid brass knob on the same cabinet run, the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob is a plain brass knob, and the Deltana KRB175 is a round knob with a groove in solid brass. Either gives you a quieter face while staying in the same base metal, which matters if you are mixing knobs and pulls from different collections in one kitchen and want the finishes to age together.

The Schaub 570 Atherton is a traditional style knob with a hammered face, which sits well with traditional and transitional millwork. For a craftsman or mission program, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 is a mission round cabinet knob from the 18-Mission Collection, and the Orca Hardware CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob comes from the 19-Whistler Collection. Both are catalogued as cabinet knobs, so they mount as knobs on the same door and drawer fronts - the difference is the design language, not the function.

The Schaub 570 Atherton is a cabinet knob, one function, one part. If you want a single item that Emtek catalogues to cover both roles, the Emtek 8665 Select, the Emtek Allerton, the Emtek Art Deco, and the Emtek Astoria glass knob are each listed with a cabinet knob/pull function. For a multi-family or hospitality package where you are specifying doors and drawers together, that lets you hold one series across both, while the 570 gives you the hammered Atherton face on the knob positions.

The Schaub 570 Atherton is a solid brass knob, so the body is metal through and not a plated shell. If you want a knob a manufacturer calls out as heavy-duty, the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty round knob with a groove in solid brass at 1-3/4 inch diameter. The larger diameter also gives a gloved or wet hand more to grab, which is worth weighing for casework in a commercial kitchen, a clinic, or a hotel back-of-house. For residential and light commercial millwork, the 570 in solid brass with a 1-1/4 inch face covers the same duty in a smaller profile.

The 570 is part of Schaub's Atherton collection, so it is the piece to specify when you want the hammered traditional look repeated across a kitchen or a whole building's casework. For a different traditional face in the same knob format, Emtek's Schaub Collection includes the Allerton and Art Deco cabinet knobs, and the Astoria is a glass knob if you want a contrast piece on an island.

Those four finishes cover the common traditional palette on the Atherton 570: oil rubbed bronze, polished chrome, polished nickel, and satin brass. If the finish schedule on your job calls for something outside that set, the alternatives to price against are the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob, the Deltana KRB175 round knob in solid brass, and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob, each of which carries its own finish range. Since the 570 is solid brass, matching it to existing brass hardware in the same room is usually a finish decision rather than a material one.
