Schaub 954K 1-1/2" Floral Heirloom Treasures Cabinet Knob

Knob face is 1-1/2 inches across with a 1 inch projection off the door, and the base measures 1/2 inch. That combination matters in a galley kitchen or a tight bath vanity: a 1 inch projection is enough to grab with a full hand but it also sits proud enough to catch a hip or a pocket in a narrow walkway. The 1/2 inch base is what sits against the wood, so it covers a small footprint and won't hide a larger existing knob's wear ring.

A knob takes one hole, so the only thing that has to match is thread and hole size. The 954K uses 8-32, the standard cabinet knob thread, so it lands on an existing single-bore front that previously carried an 8-32 knob without redrilling. What it will not do is cover a two-hole pull layout, since it is a single-post knob and there is no backplate on it. If you're converting pulls to knobs, plan on filling one hole per front.

They are not the same part. The Schaub 954K is a cabinet knob in the Heirloom Treasures collection. Emtek sells a Schaub Collection of its own, including the Emtek 8665 Select cabinet knob in the Emtek SELECT series, the Emtek Allerton cabinet knob, the Emtek Art Deco cabinet knob, and the Emtek Astoria glass cabinet knob. Those Emtek parts are catalogued as cabinet knob/pull and belong to their own series, so ordering an Emtek Schaub Collection knob will not produce the 954K Heirloom Treasures knob.

Solid brass, not a zinc casting with a brass wash. For a property manager repeating an order across a building, that is the practical difference: the threaded boss is cut into brass rather than a soft alloy, so it takes repeated removal and reinstall during turnover without stripping.

Antique Brass (AB) is the only finish this one is built in. If your other openings are in polished chrome or oil-rubbed bronze it will not blend, so for a whole-kitchen or whole-unit run you either commit to antique brass throughout or pick a different knob.

The 954K is a Symphony Inlays piece from the Heirloom Treasures line, a round knob with a floral inlay face rather than a plain turned dome. If you want the same solid brass build without the decorative face, the Deltana KRB175 is a heavy-duty round knob with a groove in a 1-3/4 inch diameter, or Delaney's solid brass cabinet knob. For a different design direction entirely, Orca's CK-18032 Mission round knob reads square and craftsman, and the CK-19032 Whistler is another plain-face option.

Emtek sells a Schaub Collection line, which is where you'd look to pair pulls with this knob: the Emtek 8665 Select, the Allerton, the Art Deco, and the Astoria Glass are all Schaub Collection cabinet knobs and pulls. They mount on the same 8-32 machine screw standard the 954K uses, so swapping between them on an existing drilled front is not a drilling change. Confirm the finish name matches across lines before you commit a full kitchen.

The Schaub 954K carries the Symphony Inlays style from the Heirloom Treasures collection, which is a decorative inlaid face. For a plain round knob in the same function, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 is a Mission round cabinet knob from the 18-Mission Collection, and the Orca Hardware CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob is another option in the 19-Whistler Collection. All three are cabinet knobs; the Orca knobs carry Mission and Whistler styling instead of an inlaid decorative face.

The Schaub 954K is a solid brass knob with an inlaid decorative face in the Heirloom Treasures collection. Where a glass face is wanted instead, the Emtek Astoria glass cabinet knob in the Astoria series is a glass cabinet knob rather than a solid brass one. For a straight metal knob without inlay work, the Emtek Art Deco cabinet knob in the Art Deco series and the Emtek Allerton cabinet knob in the Allerton series are the other Emtek options.

The knob is specified with an 8/32 by 1 inch screw, so standard 3/4 inch fronts are covered out of the box. Order extra hardware only when your fronts are thicker than standard or you're stacking a backplate behind the knob, in which case you want longer 8-32 machine screws, not a different thread.

The Schaub 954K is supplied with an 8/32 by 1 inch thread and screw size, which is the standard cabinet knob thread. Alternatives such as the Delaney solid brass cabinet knob, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission round cabinet knob, and the Orca Hardware CK-19032 Whistler cabinet knob are all cabinet knobs in the same single-screw mounting family, so confirm the screw length against door and drawer front thickness when swapping, since a thicker front may call for a longer screw than the 1 inch supplied with the 954K.
