Schaub 850 4-1/2" Center to Center Cabinet Pull

The 850 uses 8-32 machine screws, supplied at 1 inch long. That length covers a standard 3/4 inch drawer front with thread to spare. Go through a thicker front, a false front plus box, or an applied panel and you will need longer 8-32 screws, which is a standard thread size any hardware supplier stocks.

The 850 belongs to the Symphony Inlays line, a natural shell inlay set in a solid brass body. That is a decorative pull for owner-occupied kitchens, baths, model units and hospitality millwork, where the inlay is the point. For a turnkey rental fleet or a break room where pulls take keys, carts and cleaning chemicals, a plain metal bar pull is the more sensible spec. The Deltana SBP35 square bar pull is solid brass and heavy duty, and the Orca CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel in satin nickel.

The 850 is only made at 4-1/2 inch centers, so it will not reuse those holes. For 4 inch centers, the Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern pull at 4 inch center-to-center. Trimco's 562 Series drawer pulls come in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96mm centers, and the Trimco 553 Series is 3 inch centers.

You need at least 5-1/2 inches of usable width to land it, since that is the overall length of the pull, and the screw holes sit 4-1/2 inches apart inside that. On a narrow false front or a slim door stile it will overhang. Mounted vertically on a door, check that the 7/8 inch projection clears the adjacent cabinet or wall when the door opens.

The Schaub 850 is a solid brass cabinet pull with 4-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing in the Symphony Inlays style. The closest peer in spacing is the Omnia 1968/102, a forged solid brass modern cabinet pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing. The Trimco 562 series drawer pull is offered in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center. Neither of those carries an inlay face, so if the shell inlay is the reason the 850 was specified, the Emtek 8405 Select cabinet pull in the Schaub collection is the nearer match on family.

No. The Schaub 850 is a two-hole pull on 4-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing with 8/32 thread x 1 inch screws. A single-bore door takes a knob instead: the Orca Hardware CK-15030 round cabinet knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter, the CK-16030 round ring cabinet knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter, or the CK-17025 square cabinet knob at 25mm diameter. Mixing knobs on doors with 850 pulls on drawers is a common way to keep an existing drill pattern.

The Schaub 850 measures 5-1/2 inches overall on 4-1/2 inch centers, so a narrow front needs a shorter pull. The Trimco 553 series drawer pull is 3 inch center-to-center, and the Trimco 562 series is offered in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center. The Deltana SBP35 is a 3-1/2 inch solid brass square bar pull. Confirm the existing bore spacing before ordering, since none of these will land on an existing 4-1/2 inch drill pattern.

Projection is 7/8 inch. That is the clearance between the back of the grip and the drawer front, which is enough for a full hand grip on a drawer but tight if you are reaching around a heavy applied moulding. It also matters on doors next to an inside corner or an appliance panel, where a deeper pull can bind against the adjacent surface when the door swings.

Solid brass is the base material, with a shell inlay set into the grip. That matters for a rental turn or a hospitality install: brass takes fastening and repeated pull loads better than a cast zinc pull, and the post threads are cut into brass rather than a soft alloy.

Three combinations are made: Polished Nickel with Imperial Shell, Polished Nickel with Mother of Pearl, and Estate Dover with Tiger Penshell. The metal finish and the inlay are paired, so you are not choosing them separately. If you want the darker Estate Dover metal, Tiger Penshell is the inlay that comes with it.

Yes, and it is the usual way these get specified: pulls on drawers, knobs on doors. Emtek carries the Schaub Collection under its SELECT program, including the Emtek 8405 Select cabinet knobs and pulls, plus the Alexander, Art Deco and Bar cabinet pull families, so you can hold one design language across a run of cabinetry. If you want a plain knob for the door fronts, the Orca Bachelor Collection CK-15030 is a 1-1/4 inch round knob and the CK-16030 is the round ring version at the same 1-1/4 inch diameter.

The 850 is an inlay pull, offered with Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl, and Tiger Penshell faces. For utility runs where the decorative face is not wanted, the Deltana SBP35 is a heavy-duty solid brass modern square bar pull at 3-1/2 inch, and the Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1970 are forged solid brass modern pulls with 1-3/16 inch and 1-1/4 inch projection respectively. The Orca Hardware CK-12001 is a steel T-pull bar in satin nickel with a 2 inch bar width. Note the projections differ from the 850's 7/8 inch, which matters where the cabinet sits near a wall or an adjacent door swing.

They share the family name but not the design. The Emtek Alexander, Art Deco, and Bar cabinet pulls are all Schaub collection pulls, and the Emtek 8405 Select is as well, but the Schaub 850 is the Symphony Inlays style, with an Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl, or Tiger Penshell face over a solid brass body. If a drawing calls out an inlay face, an Emtek Bar or Alexander pull will not satisfy it even though the collection name matches.

The Schaub 850 is solid brass with a 7/8 inch projection. The Omnia 1968/102, 1969, 1970, and 1971 are all forged solid brass modern cabinet pulls, with the 1969 and 1971 at 1-3/16 inch projection and the 1970 at 1-1/4 inch. All four Omnia pulls sit further off the face than the 850, so a mixed order will read differently by hand and by eye where the two meet. Standardizing on one series across the floor avoids that.

It is natural shell inlay, offered as Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl or Tiger Penshell depending on which version you order. Because it is a natural material, the figure and color vary piece to piece. If you are running a long bank of cabinets and want the pulls to read consistently, order the whole run at once rather than adding matching pieces later.

Mounting hardware is 8-32 thread at 1 inch, supplied with the pull. The only time you are buying anything extra is when your front is thicker than a standard 3/4 inch panel, in which case you pick up longer 8-32 machine screws. There is no proprietary post or backing plate to source.

The Schaub 850 body is solid brass. If steel is preferred for a high-traffic or back-of-house run, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel in a satin nickel finish with a 2 inch bar width. The 850 is finished as Polished Nickel with an Imperial Shell or Mother of Pearl face, or Estate Dover with a Penshell face, so the two will not match in appearance where they are installed in the same sightline.
