The Heathrow 12-inch appliance pull delivers exactly what Montana contractors need for panel-ready appliances — solid brass construction with a 2-inch projection that won’t flex under daily use. Skip the lightweight stamped-steel pulls that bend after six months. This thing’s built from cast and machined solid brass, which means it’ll outlast the appliance it’s mounted to.
Why Heavy-Duty Construction Matters
At 2 inches (51 mm) projection with a 1-inch (25 mm) base diameter, the Heathrow provides enough clearance for thick appliance panels without looking like it’s floating off the surface. That projection depth matters when you’re mounting to an overlay panel that adds another inch to your appliance face.
The pull uses 1/4-20 machine screws — standard threading that any contractor has in their truck. No specialty fasteners, no metric conversions, no trips back to the hardware store. Compatible with standard thru-bolt, back-to-back, and concealed surface mounting, so it works whether you’re drilling through a dishwasher panel or mounting to a thick refrigerator door.

Finish options include Polished Chrome (26), Brushed Nickel (BN), Matte Black (MB), Polished Nickel (PN), and Signature Satin Brass (SSB). That matte black works particularly well in modern ranch kitchens where stainless has given way to black stainless appliances.
Getting the Measurements Right
Precision matters when you’re drilling into a high-end refrigerator panel. The 12-inch (305 mm) center-to-center hole pattern is the critical measurement — mark it twice, drill it once. With an overall length of 14.5 inches (368 mm), you’ve got 1.25 inches of decorative endcap on each side of your mounting holes.
The Heathrow Collection offers pulls in 4”, 6”, 8”, 10”, 12”, 18”, and 24” sizes, which covers everything from small freezer drawers to massive commercial-style refrigerators. Match your hardware across the kitchen — use the 4-inch on upper cabinets, 6-inch on base cabinets, and save the 12-inch and larger for appliances.
Works with most major appliance brands that accept wood-panel-ready hardware. That includes the usual suspects — Sub-Zero, Viking, Thermador, Wolf. If the appliance manual shows panel-ready as an option, this pull will work.
FAQ
Q: Will this pull work on my 48-inch built-in refrigerator?
Yes — the Heathrow Collection includes sizes up to 24 inches, and the pulls are compatible with most major appliance brands that accept wood-panel-ready hardware. The 12-inch size works well for standard 36-inch refrigerators, while wider units typically use 18 or 24-inch pulls.
Q: What mounting hardware comes with the pull?
The pull includes standard mounting hardware (screws), specifically 1/4-20 machine screws. It supports standard thru-bolt, back-to-back, and concealed surface mounting types.
Q: How does solid brass hold up in Montana’s climate?
Solid brass construction handles Montana’s temperature swings better than plated zinc alloy pulls. Brass develops a natural patina over time but won’t corrode like steel or crack like plastic in extreme cold. The available finishes (chrome, nickel, brass) provide additional protection.
Q: What’s the actual weight of this pull?
The specifications describe it as “heavy-duty solid construction” without listing exact weight. Being solid brass (cast/machined) with 2-inch projection and 1-inch base diameter, expect substantial heft compared to hollow or plated alternatives.
Q: Can I use shorter screws for thinner panels?
The pull comes with 1/4-20 machine screws as standard. For thinner panels, source shorter 1/4-20 screws from your hardware supplier — just maintain enough thread engagement for secure mounting.
