Schaub 751 1-1/4" Versailles Cabinet Knob

In nearly every case, yes. A knob mounts on a single hole and the 751 takes an 8-32 screw, which has been the standard cabinet knob thread for decades, so it drops onto an existing single-bore hole left by another knob. The one thing to check is the footprint: the base is 1/2 inch, so if the old knob had a wide rosette that shielded a worn or oversized hole, the smaller base may not cover it.

The Schaub 751 Versailles knob is solid brass with a 1-1/4 inch knob diameter. If you want a larger face in the same material, the Deltana KRB175 is a solid brass round knob with a groove detail at 1-3/4 inch diameter. That half-inch of extra diameter changes the spacing look across a run of drawer fronts, so mock one up on a single drawer before committing to a full kitchen.

Not a like-for-like match. The Schaub 751 is a Versailles-collection cabinet knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter with a 1 inch projection and a 8/32 x 1 inch screw. The Emtek 8665 is part of the Emtek SELECT series in the Schaub Collection and is catalogued as a knob/pull, meaning the SELECT system mixes knob and pull bodies rather than offering one fixed knob profile. Treat it as a different design family, not a straight swap for an existing run of 751s.

Projection is 1 inch off the face of the door or drawer. That matters in a galley kitchen or a tight hallway of cabinets where a deeper knob catches a hip or an apron pocket. The knob measures 1-1/4 inches across the head and sits on a 1/2 inch base.

Three: Oil Rubbed Bronze (ORB), Satin Nickel (SN), and Antique Light Polish (ALP). If you are matching a whole kitchen or a multi-unit turn package, order the full count in one finish at once, since living finishes like Oil Rubbed Bronze and Antique Light Polish vary lot to lot and mixing batches shows.

Solid brass through the body, not a cast zinc knob with a brass-look coating. For a property manager or a hospitality spec, that is the difference that matters on a knob pulled dozens of times a day: brass will not crack at the screw boss the way die-cast zinc does when it is overtightened or knocked.

At 1-1/4 inches across, the Versailles 751 is the common all-purpose cabinet knob size, big enough to grip on a full-height pantry door and not oversized on a small drawer. If you want a heavier look on wide drawer banks, Deltana's KRB175 round knob with a groove runs 1-3/4 inches in solid brass. Many designers run the smaller knob on doors and reserve the larger diameter or a pull for the drawers.

The Schaub 751 belongs to the Versailles collection in the Symphony Elegance style. Within the Emtek Schaub Collection you can also spec the Allerton cabinet knob, the Art Deco cabinet knob, and the Astoria glass cabinet knob, all catalogued as knob/pull items. Allerton and Art Deco give you two different metal profiles, while Astoria brings a glass face if the design calls for a non-metal element on the door fronts.

The Schaub 751 is a decorative Versailles-pattern knob in the Symphony Elegance style. For a simpler face, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 is a Mission round cabinet knob from the 18-Mission Collection and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler knob comes out of the 19-Whistler Collection; both are straightforward cabinet knobs. The Delaney solid brass cabinet knob is another plain-profile option in brass if you want to keep the material consistent with the 751.

Two comparables share the solid brass construction of the Schaub 751. The Delaney solid brass cabinet knob is a brass knob in a plainer profile, and the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty solid brass round knob with a groove at 1-3/4 inch diameter. Brass takes plated and living finishes the same way across brands, which is what keeps the sheen consistent when you mix them in one room, though exact finish names differ by manufacturer.

The Schaub 751 ships with a 8/32 x 1 inch machine screw and has a 1/2 inch base footprint. 8-32 is the common cabinet knob thread, so alternates such as the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob, the Deltana KRB175 or the Orca CK-18032 Mission knob generally land on the same drilled hole in the door or drawer front. What can differ is screw length, which has to suit the thickness of your fronts, so verify the screw supplied with whichever knob you order rather than assuming the 1 inch length carries over.

Versailles is Schaub's Symphony Elegance styling, a decorative traditional look suited to raised-panel and inset cabinetry. For a cleaner or more period-specific direction, Orca Hardware's CK-18032 Mission round knob or the CK-19032 Whistler are plainer profiles, and Emtek's Schaub Collection offers the Art Deco and Astoria glass knobs if you want a different decorative vocabulary.

Emtek sells a Schaub Collection line, including the 8665 Select cabinet knobs and the Allerton knob, which keeps you inside the same design family when one profile does not suit a particular cabinet run. Delaney also offers a solid brass cabinet knob if you simply need another brass-bodied knob on the same job.

Those three are the finishes the 751 Versailles knob is built in. If the design calls for something outside that range, the Emtek Schaub Collection knobs - Allerton, Art Deco and Astoria glass - are separate knob/pull designs with their own finish ranges, and the Orca CK-18032 Mission and CK-19032 Whistler knobs are further options. Confirm the finish code on whichever line you pick, since finish naming does not carry across manufacturers even when the tone looks close.
