Hickory Hardware Bar Pulls Series 8-13/16" (224 mm) Center to Center Brushed Black Nickel Pull, - HH075598-BBLN

Hickory Hardware Bar Pull For Contemporary Cabinets

Hickory Hardware Bar Pull gives you a modern cabinet pull sized for serious projects, with an 8-13/16 inch center to center layout that spans wider doors and drawers for a clean, linear look. The pull is part of the Hickory Hardware Bar Pull Collection, so its profile is designed to complement Contemporary home designs where straight lines and simple shapes matter. Made from steel, the Bar Pull provides a solid feel in hand, which helps doors and drawers open with a confident, predictable grip. The brushed black nickel finish creates a muted, dark metallic surface that visually ties together other black nickel elements in a room while keeping reflections low for a more understated appearance. With a total length of 11-13/16 inches, the pull visually anchors larger cabinet fronts so runs of cabinets line up consistently.

Key Bar Pull Details For Cabinet Projects

• The 8-13/16 inch center to center dimension sets consistent hole spacing across a run of cabinets, which simplifies drilling layouts and helps multiple doors and drawers align visually along the same horizontal line.
• The 11-13/16 inch overall length balances the long mounting span with extra bar beyond the screw points, so installers and users have generous grip area at each end, helpful on tall pantry doors or wide drawers.
• The 1-1/4 inch projection sets the working stand-off from the cabinet face, leaving space for fingers to wrap behind the bar while keeping the pull close enough to the door for a streamlined appearance on Contemporary fronts.
• The 1/2 inch width keeps the bar profile slim, which supports minimalist designs where hardware should read as a simple line, while still offering a defined edge for the hand to pull against.
• The brushed black nickel finish provides a soft metallic sheen that reduces glare compared to bright finishes, helping the pull blend with other dark fixtures and giving designers another option beyond plain black or chrome.
• The steel material forms a rigid bar that resists flexing under normal cabinet use, which matters on wider pulls where users may pull from one side or the other during daily operation.

Installation Dimensions For 224 mm Center Pull

The 8-13/16 inch center to center measurement defines the drilling pattern for this 224 mm pull, so hole locations can be laid out and repeated across multiple fronts without adjustment once the template is set. With a projection of 1-1/4 inches, the pull stands off the surface far enough to clear fingers behind the bar, which is important on thicker door edges or when users approach the handle at an angle. The 1/2 inch width keeps the footprint narrow on the face, allowing installers to position the pull near door edges or rail intersections without crowding other design elements. The overall 11-13/16 inch length helps installers visually center the pull on wider faces so the hardware aligns with surrounding doors and drawers in the same bank.

Using This Belwith Keeler Pull In Real Projects

Where This Steel Brushed Black Nickel Pull Fits

This Belwith Keeler pull sits in the Decorative Hardware & Moldings category as a handle and pull, so it is suited to cabinet doors and drawers where visible hardware is part of the finished look. The Bar Pull Collection identity ties it to Contemporary homes, aligning the straight steel bar and brushed black nickel finish with flat-panel fronts and clean lines. At 11-13/16 inches long with an 8-13/16 inch center to center dimension, the pull is sized for wider cabinet faces commonly found on kitchen bases, large vanity drawers, and tall storage doors. The 1/2 inch width keeps the bar visually light on these larger surfaces, while the 1-1/4 inch projection provides clearance that works across typical residential cabinet thicknesses without the pull feeling bulky.

Details That Support Consistent Cabinet Alignment

The defined 8-13/16 inch center to center spacing lets installers build or use a single drilling template for an entire room, reducing layout variation from cabinet to cabinet and supporting straight hardware lines across long runs. Because the pull length extends to 11-13/16 inches, there is visual mass at each end beyond the mounting points, helping hardware lines look deliberate instead of undersized on wider doors. The steel construction holds that long span rigid during day-to-day opening, which helps the bar stay level over time when people pull from one side. The 1-1/4 inch projection combines with the 1/2 inch width to create a bar that is easy to grasp without protruding excessively, useful in tight walkways where pulls might otherwise catch clothing. The brushed black nickel finish also helps conceal minor fingerprints compared to high-gloss metal, so banks of pulls keep their intended appearance between cleanings.
