Empire Series zinc die cast pull gives you a 12 inch center to center handle in an antique nickel finish, so long cabinet doors or wide drawers get a consistent grip point across the run. Schaub and Company designs this pull with zinc die cast construction, which provides a solid metal feel and a stable mounting base once fastened to the panel. The antique nickel finish creates a muted metallic look, which helps this handle blend with traditional or transitional cabinet styles where bright chrome would stand out too much. The pull measures 13-1/8 inches in overall length, so it spans wider fronts and visually lines up with larger cabinet faces. A projection of 1-5/8 inches moves the gripping surface away from the door or drawer front, leaving finger clearance during daily use without crowding adjacent fronts.
The specified 12 inch center to center measurement defines the distance between mounting holes, so you can set templates or jigs for consistent drilling from cabinet to cabinet. With the overall 13-1/8 inch length documented, you can plan clearances at door edges or between stacked drawers so the handle does not overhang into adjacent fronts. The 1-5/8 inch projection keeps the grip reachable without the hand scraping the door, which is useful on heavier doors where a full hand wrap is needed. Zinc die cast construction holds threads firmly around the screw interface, so the pull stays tight against wood or composite fronts after installation. The antique nickel finish on the handle surface supports a uniform appearance when multiple pulls are mounted in a row on upper and lower cabinets.
The 12 inch center to center layout suits wider cabinet doors and drawers, because the long spread places the hand closer to the center of the load when pulling. On tall pantry doors, the 13-1/8 inch overall length creates a strong vertical or horizontal visual line, tying multiple fronts together in a bank. The antique nickel finish helps this pull coordinate with hinges and other decorative hardware in similar tones, keeping a consistent metal color across a kitchen or bath. Within the decorative hardware and moldings category, this handle functions as a primary pull for cabinets and furniture pieces where a substantial grip is preferred. The zinc die cast build allows the pull to serve as a daily-use handle on frequently opened doors, while the surface finish keeps the hardware visually in step with surrounding trim elements.
The stated 12 inch center to center dimension allows installers to standardize drilling patterns, which reduces layout time and helps maintain alignment across long cabinet walls. Knowing the pull is 13-1/8 inches long lets you balance the handle relative to door width, so margins at each end look intentional when cabinets are viewed in a line. The 1-5/8 inch projection positions the hand away from the door face, which can ease operation when users grab the pull from above or below on tall doors. Zinc die cast material gives consistent dimensions from piece to piece within the Empire Series, which supports predictable fit when you move between factory-drilled and field-drilled fronts. Tracking this product under part number 880-AN simplifies matching pulls during renovations, so new handles align with existing antique nickel hardware on adjacent cabinetry.
