Schaub SCH-978 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What screws come with the Schaub 978 bail pull and will they work on a thick drawer front?
The 978 mounts with 8/32 thread screws 1 inch long. That length suits a standard 3/4 inch drawer front with a little thread engagement to spare. On a thicker front, or a front with an applied face or a false panel behind it, you'll need longer 8/32 machine screws, since the thread size stays the same either way.
2) Is a 5-1/2 inch bail pull too big for a small drawer or a cabinet door?
At 5-1/2 inch centers the 978 is sized for wide drawer banks, false-front sink drawers, and larger doors. On a 12 inch drawer it dominates the face, and on a narrow door the posts crowd the stiles. For small drawers in the same room, Schaub's Sunburst collection runs smaller center-to-center sizes in the same Symphony Elegance styling, so you can carry the look down without forcing this size onto a front it doesn't suit.
3) I'm replacing worn pulls in a unit turnover and the existing holes are 5-1/2 inches apart. Will the Schaub 978 cover them?
It mounts on 5-1/2 inch centers, so it lands on those holes with no new drilling. What it won't do is hide anything: the base footprint is 1-3/8 inches, so if the old pull had a wide backplate and left marks or filled holes outside that footprint, they'll show. Check the old pull's post spacing with a tape before you commit the whole floor.
4) What is the closest alternative to the Schaub 978 Sunburst bail pull if I want a decorative pull from the same design family?
Stay inside the Schaub Collection offered under Emtek. The Emtek 8405 Select cabinet pull is part of the Emtek SELECT series in the Schaub Collection, and the Emtek Art Deco cabinet pull is a Schaub Collection decorative series as well. Both are cabinet knob/pull function, the same job the Schaub 978 does as a cabinet pull. The 978 itself is a solid brass bail pull on 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing, so if you move to one of the Emtek Schaub Collection series you will need to confirm the center-to-center spacing matches the holes already drilled in the drawer front.
5) The drawer fronts are already drilled on 4 inch centers. What pull fits that instead of the Schaub 978?
The Omnia 1968/102 modern cabinet pull is forged solid brass with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, so it lands on an existing 4 inch pattern without redrilling. The Trimco 562 series drawer pulls cover 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center options, which also gives you a 4 inch choice. The Schaub 978 is fixed at 5-1/2 inch center-to-center, so it will not land on 4 inch holes. Both alternatives are a plainer modern or utility profile rather than the 978's Sunburst bail.
6) Can I use an Orca Bachelor knob in place of the Schaub 978 pull?
No, those are single-hole knobs, not two-hole pulls. The Orca Hardware CK-15030 is a round cabinet pull knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter and the CK-16030 is a round ring cabinet pull knob at the same 1-1/4 inch diameter, both cabinet knob function; the CK-17025 is a square cabinet pull knob at 25mm diameter. The Schaub 978 mounts on 5-1/2 inch center-to-center with 8/32 thread by 1 inch screws, meaning two holes in the drawer front. Swapping a knob onto a face already drilled for the 978 leaves a second exposed hole, so knobs belong on new fronts or on doors where you are drilling fresh.
7) How far does the Schaub 978 Sunburst pull stand off the cabinet face?
Projection is 3/4 inch, measured from the face of the door or drawer to the outside of the bail. That's a low-profile stand-off, worth knowing in a galley kitchen or a tight hallway of cabinets where a deeper pull catches hips and pockets. The mounting posts stand 1-3/8 inches at the base and the pull measures 2-1/8 inches overall.
8) Is the Schaub 978 bail pull solid brass or plated pot metal?
Solid brass. That matters on a bail pull more than on a fixed pull, because the swinging bail and its posts take repeated load every time the drawer opens. Brass also takes the hand-applied finishes this pull ships in rather than a sprayed coating over zinc.
9) What finishes does the Schaub 978 Sunburst pull come in?
Three: Estate Dover (ED), Hi-Lited Luminescent Bronze (HLB), and Silver Antique (SA). All three are antiqued, hand-worked finishes rather than flat plated colors, so if you're matching a run of cabinets ordered at different times, order the whole job at once and keep a spare.
10) Should I use a swinging bail pull or a fixed bar pull on kitchen drawers?
A bail swings on its posts, so it hangs flat against the front when nobody's touching it and lifts into the hand. That's the traditional look, and it means a rag or a sleeve can catch under it. A fixed bar pull stays rigid and quiet and wipes down faster, which is why it's the usual pick on contemporary or high-traffic commercial millwork. If the bail is the wrong fit, the Deltana SBP35 modern square bar pull is a solid brass fixed option, and Omnia's 1968, 1969, 1970 and 1971 series are forged solid brass modern pulls.
11) Can I get the Schaub Sunburst look under the Emtek name for a job speccing Emtek hardware?
Yes. Emtek carries Schaub Collection cabinet hardware, including the Emtek 8405 Select cabinet pulls and the Alexander, Art Deco, and Bar cabinet pulls. If a designer's schedule calls out Emtek throughout, those are the line to spec. The 978 Sunburst bail itself is ordered under the Schaub name.
12) The Schaub 978 sticks out too far for a tight galley or a corridor cabinet run. What projects less?
Nothing in the Omnia modern group projects less: the Omnia 1969 and Omnia 1971 are forged solid brass with a 1-3/16 inch projection and the Omnia 1970 is forged solid brass with a 1-1/4 inch projection, all of which stand off further than the Schaub 978's 3/4 inch projection. If clearance is the constraint, the 978 is already the shallower part and its 2-1/8 inch overall keeps it tight to the face. Go to the Omnia 1969, 1970 or 1971 when you want a deeper grip for gloved hands or heavy drawers rather than a shallower one.
13) I am standardizing drawer pulls across a building and need one part in multiple sizes. Does the Schaub 978 do that, or should I pick something else?
The Schaub 978 is a single 5-1/2 inch center-to-center size offered in Estate Dover, Hi-Lited Luminescent Bronze and Silver Antique finishes, so you standardize on finish, not on a spread of hole spacings. For a fleet with mixed drawer widths, the Trimco 562 series drawer pulls run 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch and 96mm center-to-center within one series, and the Trimco 553 series is a 3 inch center-to-center drawer pull. Those give you one series across several spacings; the 978 gives you one decorative solid brass bail at one spacing in three finishes.
14) I need smaller drawer pulls to go with a 5-1/2 inch bail. What else do you carry in shorter center-to-center sizes?
For the smaller fronts in the same job, Trimco's 553 Series drawer pulls are 3 inch center-to-center, and the 562 Series comes in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center-to-center. Those are utility-grade drawer pulls rather than a decorative bail, so they read differently from the Sunburst. If you want the decorative look carried through, stay inside Schaub's Sunburst collection at a smaller size instead.
15) Does the Schaub 978 come with a backplate or rosettes behind the posts?
The 978 mounts post-to-front with a 1-3/8 inch base and nothing else between the bail and the wood. Nothing in the pull hides an unfinished or previously drilled surface, so on a refinish job plan on filling and touching up any old holes before the hardware goes on.
16) Is the SDC SP50 spindle a cabinet pull I could use on drawers?
No. The SDC SP50 is a 50mm spindle in the door controls function, a lever or knob drive component for door hardware, not a grip that mounts to a cabinet face. The Schaub 978 is a cabinet pull that mounts through the drawer front on 5-1/2 inch centers with 8/32 thread by 1 inch screws. If you are specifying cabinet hardware, compare the 978 against the other cabinet pulls rather than against a spindle.
