Schaub’s cabinet appliance pulls represent the intersection of solid brass construction and professional-grade hardware engineering. The Avenue Collection features high-quality solid brass construction for long-lasting durability, targeting Montana’s luxury custom home market where material quality directly impacts long-term performance.
Avenue Collection Specifications
The Avenue Collection delivers precise measurements that matter for professional installation. Two models serve different appliance and cabinet applications:
| Model | Center-to-Center | Overall Length | Projection | Base Dimensions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 211058 | 12” (304.8mm) | 14-3/8” (365mm) | 1-7/8” (48mm) | 1-1/2” x 1” |
| 211059 | 18” (457mm) | 20-3/8” (518mm) | 1-7/8” (48mm) | 1-1/2” x 1” |
Hardware included: 1/4-20 x 1” machine screws. Requires precision drilling at exactly 12” or 18” center-to-center spacing. That 1-7/8” projection matters — a 1-7/8” projection clearance should be accounted for in appliance handle swings. The 18” model weighs 2.09 pounds, substantial enough to feel quality in hand.
Model 211058 (12”) is ideal for smaller appliances or standard cabinets, while Model 211059 (18”) provides extra leverage for large-scale refrigeration units. Both maintain identical projection and base dimensions, creating visual consistency across mixed installations.
Design Philosophy Across Schaub Collections
The Avenue Collection features a traditional yet streamlined ‘Transitional’ design with clean lines — a bold, modern statement for kitchen appliances. This positioning makes sense within Schaub’s broader portfolio.
The platform is particularly recognized for its seamless integration with paneled appliances, providing a cohesive and elegant look in kitchen environments. While other brands may focus on more generic hardware, Schaub emphasizes decorative, luxurious finishes and custom options, making it a preferred choice for high-end kitchen designs.
The brand spans multiple design languages:
- Avenue: Classic English country and farmhouse design, crafted from solid brass. Features round and oval knobs, distinguished by oval spade-shaped feet and a gently flared grip for a soft, contoured feel. Available in five finishes, includes cabinet pulls from 4 to 12 inches and appliance pulls in 12 and 18 inches.
- Country Collection: Available in various finishes such as Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Nickel, Polished Chrome. Comes in multiple sizes (4”, 6”, 12”, 15”). Notable features include unique inlays in collections like Symphony.
- Pub House Collection: Characterized by a knurled style and available in various finishes including polished chrome, brushed nickel, matte black. Pulls come in multiple sizes, from 3-1/2 inches to 24 inches.
- Steamworks Collection: Crafted from zinc, featuring finishes including Satin Nickel, Brushed Bronze, Distressed Pewter/Copper, and Empire Bronze. Each pull includes #8-32 x 1” screws for easy installation.
Installation Requirements for Montana Contractors
Standard through-hole mounting makes Avenue pulls straightforward to install, but precision matters. The included 1/4-20 machine screws handle most applications. Matches other hardware within the Schaub Avenue Collection for a unified kitchen or bathroom design. Compatible with major appliance brands that support custom panel handles (Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, etc.).
Applications include large pantry doors and tall cabinetry, integrated appliance panels where a decorative and functional pull is required, and luxury bathroom cabinetry or control cabinets for steam showers and saunas. That versatility matters in Montana’s custom home market where kitchens often blend into great rooms and integrated appliances demand consistent hardware.
Finish Options and Long-Term Performance
Available in multiple finishes: Polished Nickel (PN), Vintage Brass (VB), Matte Black (MB), Satin Brass (SB/US4), and Unlacquered Brass (UNBR). Each finish serves different design goals. Polished Nickel resists moisture and fingerprints. Matte Black hides daily use. Unlacquered Brass develops patina over time — a living finish that changes with use.
Corrosion-resistant finishes suitable for high-use areas matter in Montana’s variable humidity environment. Wood stove heating drops indoor humidity to desert levels in winter, while summer brings normal moisture. That cycling tests finish durability.

FAQ
What’s the actual difference between the 12” and 18” Avenue models? Beyond the obvious 6” span difference, the 18” model (211059) provides better leverage for heavy appliance doors. Model 211058 (12”) is ideal for smaller appliances or standard cabinets, while Model 211059 (18”) provides extra leverage for large-scale refrigeration units. Both share identical 1-7/8” projection and base dimensions.
Do these pulls work with integrated panel-ready appliances? Yes. Compatible with major appliance brands that support custom panel handles (Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, etc.). The solid brass construction handles the weight of custom panels without flexing.
What mounting hardware comes with Avenue pulls? 1/4-20 x 1” machine screws come standard. These work for most cabinet and appliance installations, though extremely thick panels might require longer screws.
How does Avenue compare to Schaub’s other appliance pull collections? Avenue coordinates with cabinet pulls (available in 4”, 6”, 8”, and 10” sizes) and knobs. Compared to the Schaub Traditional 738 (15”), the Avenue series offers a more streamlined and contemporary look while providing similar durability. The transitional design bridges traditional and contemporary kitchens.
