Schaub 782 1-7/8" Mountain Oval Cabinet Knob

It is a 1-7/8 inch knob overall, with a 1-7/8 inch knob diameter, a 5/8 inch base footprint where it meets the door, and 1-1/4 inch projection off the face. The small base under a wide oval top means it reads large visually without a big footprint on the stile, which matters on narrow face frames and shaker rails.

Yes, in most cases. It is a single-hole knob on an 8-32 thread, which is the standard North American cabinet knob thread, so it drops onto the existing knob hole from almost any brand. The thing to check is the old knob's base diameter: the 782 base is 5/8 inch, so if the previous knob had a wider foot that shielded a worn or oversized hole, the smaller base may not cover it.

Cast bronze, not plated pot metal. That matters for two reasons on a large job: the weight and feel are consistent knob to knob, and the living finishes on it (Natural Bronze in particular) behave the way a bronze substrate is expected to, since the color is on bronze rather than a cast zinc core.

Five: Antique Silver (AS), Antique Bronze (AZ), Italian Nickel (IN), Natural Bronze (NB), and Verde Imperiale (VI). If you are matching pulls and knobs across a kitchen, order all of the Mountain collection pieces in the same finish code and ideally in one batch, since hand-applied rustic finishes vary between production runs.

It is part of Schaub's Mountain collection, styled rustic, with a hand-textured oval top on a small round base. To keep a kitchen consistent, specify other Mountain collection pulls and knobs in the same finish code rather than mixing collections, since the texture pattern is what ties the set together, not just the finish.

For a smooth, non-textured look, the Deltana KRB175 is a solid brass round knob with a groove at 1-3/4 inch diameter, close in scale but traditional rather than rustic. Orca Hardware's CK-18032 Mission round knob is another simpler option. If you want to stay in the Schaub design language, Emtek sells the Schaub Collection knobs, including the Allerton and Art Deco knobs.

The 782 stands 1-1/4 inch off the face. On inset doors and on cabinets next to a range or a refrigerator panel, check the swing before you commit: a knob at that projection mounted near a door edge can contact an adjacent appliance handle or a wall return on a blind corner cabinet.

The Schaub 782 is a cast bronze oval knob with rustic detailing, offered in Antique Silver, Antique Bronze, Italian Nickel, Natural Bronze and Verde Imperiale. For a plainer look, the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob is a solid brass cabinet knob, and the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty solid brass round knob with a groove at 1-3/4 inch diameter. Both trade the Mountain collection's rustic profile for a simpler form.

The Schaub 782 measures 1-7/8 inch overall with a 1-1/4 inch projection, which is a substantial knob for small drawer fronts. If you need a different rustic-leaning round knob, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob from the 18-Mission Collection and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob are both round cabinet knobs in their own collections and are worth pricing out against the opening you are filling.

The Schaub 782 uses an 8/32 by 1 inch machine screw, which is the standard cabinet knob thread, so it lands on a single bore like the Deltana KRB175 round knob or the Orca CK-18032 Mission round knob. What changes when you swap brands is the footprint on the door: the 782 has a 5/8 inch base and 1-7/8 inch overall size, so a knob with a different base diameter can leave a witness ring from the previous hardware.
