Schaub 857-PEN-ED – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What screw size does the Schaub 857 Symphony cabinet knob take, and will it work on my existing drilled doors?
The Schaub 857 uses the standard 8-32 machine screw thread, so it mounts through the same single center bore most cabinet doors and drawer fronts are already drilled for. Since 8-32 is the North American cabinet hardware standard, knobs swapping out on an existing door normally reuse the same hole. Drawer front thickness decides screw length, so check that the screw you have on hand reaches through.
2) What is a plain solid brass alternative to the Schaub 857 Symphony knob if the shell inlay is not wanted?
The Schaub 857 is a 1-1/4 inch solid brass cabinet knob in the Symphony Inlays style, with inlay collections in Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl, and Tiger Penshell. For an uninlaid solid brass knob in the same role, the Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob is a cabinet knob with a solid brass body and no decorative inlay face. The Deltana KRB175 is another solid brass option, a round knob with a groove detail at 1-3/4 inch diameter, so it reads as a larger and plainer knob on the door front.
3) For a high-traffic multi-family kitchen, what round cabinet knob should be used instead of the Schaub 857 Symphony?
The Schaub 857 is a decorative knob with a natural shell or mother of pearl inlay set into a 1-1/4 inch solid brass body, which suits a feature kitchen or bath. Where a simpler all-metal round knob is preferred for repeat turnover units, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob and the Orca CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob are both round cabinet knobs with no inlay face. The Deltana KRB175 is described as a heavy-duty round knob in solid brass at 1-3/4 inch diameter.
4) What looks like a substitute for the Schaub 857 Symphony inlay knob but is not a visual match?
The Emtek Astoria Glass cabinet knob is the closest trap. Both it and the Schaub 857 read as a decorative accent knob, but Astoria is a glass knob while the 857 is solid brass with a Symphony inlay of Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl, or Tiger Penshell. Likewise the Emtek Art Deco cabinet knob is a styled metal design rather than an inlaid face. If the requirement is the shell or pearl inlay look, none of those substitute for the 857.
5) How far does the Schaub 857 knob stick out from the cabinet door?
Projection is 1-3/4 inches from the face of the door. That matters in a tight galley or a kitchen island walkway, and it also tells you how much clearance you need where a door swings past an adjacent wall or appliance. The base that sits against the door measures 7/8 inch, and the knob head is 1-1/4 inch in diameter.
6) Is the Schaub 857 knob solid brass or plated zinc?
Solid brass is the base material, with a natural shell inlay set into the face. That is what a specifier looks for on a kitchen or bath where knobs get handled daily and plated pot metal wears through at the edges.
7) What inlay and finish combinations does the Schaub 857 Symphony knob come in?
Three combinations: Polished Nickel with Imperial Shell, Polished Nickel with Mother of Pearl, and Estate Dover with Tiger Penshell. The two Polished Nickel versions differ only in the shell, so if you are matching existing nickel hardware in a room you can pick the inlay on looks alone.
8) Will the shell inlay knobs match exactly across a whole kitchen?
The inlays are natural shell (Imperial Shell, Mother of Pearl, or Tiger Penshell), so color and figuring vary piece to piece by nature. Expect a set to read as a family rather than as identical stamped parts. If you want dead-uniform faces across thirty doors, a plain metal knob is the safer call.
9) Is a 1-1/4 inch knob big enough for large drawer fronts?
At 1-1/4 inch diameter the Schaub 857 is sized for cabinet doors and small to medium drawers. On a wide or deep drawer front loaded with dishes, a single small knob puts all the pull on one point and most designers move to a pull or a larger knob. Deltana's KRB175 round knob, at 1-3/4 inch, is the larger-head option if you want to stay with knobs throughout.
10) Are Emtek Schaub Collection cabinet knobs interchangeable with the Schaub 857 on the same cabinet run?
The Emtek 8665 Select, Allerton, Art Deco, and Astoria Glass cabinet knobs are all part of the Emtek Schaub Collection and are catalogued as cabinet knob/pull hardware, so they serve the same function as the Schaub 857 on a door or drawer front. The visual match is not the same, though: the 857 carries a Symphony shell or mother of pearl inlay face, while Astoria is a glass knob and Art Deco and Allerton are styled metal designs. Mixing them on one run is a design decision, not a fit problem.
11) Does the Schaub 857 use the same mounting screw as other cabinet knobs, or is special hardware needed?
The Schaub 857 mounts with an 8/32 threaded screw, the standard cabinet knob thread, so it goes into an existing single knob bore. Cabinet knobs from the comparable group, including the Orca CK-18032 Mission round knob, the Orca CK-19032 Whistler, and the Emtek 8665 Select knob, are all single-point cabinet knobs used in the same way, so swapping among them does not change the hole layout in the door front.
12) I like the Schaub look but need a decorative knob in a different style. What else is there?
Emtek carries the Schaub Collection under its own lines, including the Allerton, Art Deco, and Astoria glass cabinet knobs, plus the Emtek 8665 SELECT series. Those give you the same decorative-knob category with a different face treatment, glass rather than shell in the Astoria's case.
