Schaub Noho 12-Inch Appliance Pull

The Schaub Noho Round Cabinet Appliance Pull delivers solid brass construction in a minimalist design that actually works for panel-ready appliances. At 12 inches center-to-center with a 1-7/8 inch projection, this hardware gives dishwashers and refrigerators the substantial feel that zinc alloy pulls can’t match.

Five Finishes That Matter for High-End Kitchens

The Noho line comes in Matte Black (MB), Polished Nickel (PN), Satin Brass (US4), Unlacquered Brass (UNBR), and Vintage Brass (VB). That unlacquered brass option deserves attention — it’ll develop a natural patina over time, perfect for Montana homes going for authentic character rather than permanent shine.

The matte black holds up against fingerprints better than glossy finishes. Polished nickel matches stainless appliances without looking like an afterthought. Each pull uses solid brass material, not plated zinc that chips after a few years of daily use.

Mounting Options Beyond Basic Back-Mount

Standard installation uses the included 1/4-20 x 1-inch screws through the panel face. But Schaub built flexibility into this line that most appliance pulls skip.

The concealed surface mount option (CS- prefix SKU) hides mounting hardware completely. Back-to-back mounting (BTB- prefix) lets you mount matching pulls on both sides of a pass-through pantry door. Surface mount works for situations where drilling through isn’t possible.

Specification	Value
Overall Length	12-3/4 inches (324 mm)
Center-to-Center	12 inches (305 mm)
Projection	1-7/8 inches (48 mm)
Base Diameter	0.8125 inches (21 mm)
Material	Solid Brass
Thread Size	1/4-20

That 1-7/8 inch projection puts enough clearance between your knuckles and the panel face. The projection generally meets reach requirements for accessibility, though it lacks explicit ADA certification.

Built for Panel-Ready Appliances

Dishwashers, refrigerators, wine coolers, and beverage centers — these pulls handle the weight and daily use of appliance doors. The round profile works better than square-edged pulls when you’re opening a dishwasher with wet hands.

For panel-ready appliances, ensure panel thickness is compatible with 1-inch screw length or source longer 1/4-20 screws as needed. Most cabinet panels run 3/4-inch thick, leaving enough thread engagement. Thicker overlay panels might need 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 inch screws.

The Bottom Line

Schaub Noho appliance pulls cost more than builder-grade hardware because they’re actually solid brass. The Limited Lifetime Warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential use — though the California Prop 65 warning indicates the product may contain lead, standard for brass hardware.

For high-end kitchen builds where panel-ready appliances need hardware that matches the cabinet quality, the Noho line delivers. The multiple mounting options solve real installation problems. The solid brass construction handles Montana’s dry climate without the corrosion issues of cheaper alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s included with the Schaub Noho appliance pull? The pull comes with mounting screws (typically 1/4-20 x 1” size). You get the hardware itself plus basic mounting screws — nothing else.

Can I use this on regular cabinet doors? Yes, though it’s oversized for standard cabinets. The pull works on oversized cabinet doors and pantry doors beyond just appliances. Consider the smaller Noho cabinet pulls for regular doors.

How does this compare to other Schaub appliance pulls? Within the brand, alternatives include the Schaub Pub House 12” Appliance Pull, the square version of this same Noho pull, and a smaller bar version for standard cabinets. The round profile sets this model apart from the angular options.

Do I need special tools for installation? Standard drill bits and screwdrivers handle basic installation. For the concealed surface mount or back-to-back options, you’ll need the specific SKU versions that include specialized mounting hardware.

Will the unlacquered brass tarnish? Yes — that’s the point. Unlacquered brass develops patina over time from oils and air exposure. Some homeowners want that aged look. If you prefer consistent shine, stick with the lacquered finishes like Polished Nickel or Satin Brass.
