Schaub 654-AD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use the Schaub 654 knob to replace an existing cabinet knob without drilling new holes?
In most cases yes. It mounts on a single hole with an 8-32 screw, which is the near-universal cabinet knob thread in North America, so it drops onto the existing bore left by another single-hole knob. It will not cover the two holes left by a pull, since it is a single-post knob.
2) What is a plain solid brass cabinet knob to use instead of the Schaub 654 Fair Isle when the shell inlay is not wanted?
The Schaub 654 is a solid brass cabinet knob with a white mother of pearl Imperial Shell inlay in the Symphony Inlays style. If you want the same solid brass base without a decorative inlay, the Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob is a solid brass cabinet knob in Delaney's Cabinet Knobs series, and the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty solid brass round knob with a groove in a 1-3/4 inch diameter. Both are undecorated brass profiles rather than inlaid faces.
3) If I need a larger knob than the 1-1/4 inch Schaub 654, what else is available?
The Schaub 654 measures 1-1/4 inch in knob diameter with a 1-1/4 inch projection. For a larger face, the Deltana KRB175 round knob with groove is listed at a 1-3/4 inch diameter in solid brass. That is a half inch wider across the face, which changes the visual weight on a drawer front considerably.
4) Emtek sells a Schaub Collection knob. Is that the same thing as the Schaub 654?
No. The Emtek Schaub Collection items, such as the Emtek 8665 Select, Allerton, Art Deco, and Astoria glass cabinet knobs, are separate Emtek series carried under that collection name and are listed as cabinet knob/pull products. The Schaub 654 is the Fair Isle knob in the Symphony Inlays style, 1-1/4 inch diameter solid brass with an Imperial Shell white mother of pearl face. If a spec calls out the 654 by number, an Emtek Schaub Collection knob is not a drop-in match for the appearance.
5) How far does the Schaub 654 cabinet knob stick out from the door?
Projection is 1-1/4 inches off the face of the door or drawer front. Worth checking against a tight galley run or a door that swings past an adjacent wall or appliance handle.
6) What size is the Schaub 654 Fair Isle knob and what shape is it?
It is a rectangular knob measuring 1-1/4 by 7/8 inches, with the knob diameter listed at 1-1/4 inches and a 3/4 inch base. That puts it in the middle of the size range for cabinet knobs, so it reads as a small decorative accent rather than a statement piece on large drawer fronts.
7) What is the Schaub 654 knob actually made of, and is the shell real?
The body is solid brass, and the inlay is Imperial Shell in white mother of pearl. It is part of Schaub's Symphony Inlays style within the Fair Isle collection, so the shell face is the finished surface, not a printed or laminated pattern.
8) I want a plainer solid brass cabinet knob instead of an inlaid one. What else is there?
If the mother of pearl inlay is too decorative for the room, ZenSupply carries plain brass alternatives: the Deltana KRB175 is a round solid brass knob with a groove at 1-3/4 inch diameter, and Delaney also offers a solid brass cabinet knob. For a simpler shaped look at a similar scale, Orca Hardware's CK-18032 Mission round knob or the CK-19032 Whistler are straightforward non-inlay options.
9) I have a lot of cabinet doors to outfit. Is there a simpler round knob that installs the same way as the Schaub 654?
The Schaub 654 uses an 8/32 by 1 inch screw, the standard cabinet knob thread. Simpler round options include the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob, both listed as cabinet knobs, and the Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob. These are single-material knobs without an inlaid face, which is often the choice for high-turnover multi-family units where the Schaub inlay is reserved for feature cabinetry.
10) Is there another decorative cabinet knob line similar to the Schaub Symphony inlays?
Emtek's Schaub Collection is the closest family we carry. The Astoria Glass cabinet knob gives you a comparable decorative face in glass rather than shell, and the Art Deco and Allerton cabinet knobs are period-styled metal alternatives in the same line. All three are listed as cabinet knob/pull function.
11) Will the Schaub 654 knob hold up on a heavy kitchen drawer?
The knob body is solid brass on a single 8-32 post, which is standard cabinet knob mounting. It is sized as an accent piece at 1-1/4 by 7/8 inches with a 3/4 inch base, so on a wide or heavily loaded drawer a two-post pull gives a better grip and spreads the load. For doors and standard drawers it is a normal fit.
12) The Schaub 654 comes in Aged Dover and Polished Nickel. What if I need a different finish family?
The Schaub 654 Fair Isle knob is offered in Aged Dover and Polished Nickel over its solid brass base. If neither finish coordinates with the rest of the package, the Deltana KRB175 solid brass round knob and the Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob are alternate solid brass knobs to specify, and Emtek's Allerton and Art Deco cabinet knobs are further options in the same decorative cabinet knob category.
