Colonial Bronze 165 3-1/2" (89 mm) Center to Center Satin Chrome Pull, 165-26D

Colonial Bronze 165 Satin Chrome Cabinet Pull

Colonial Bronze 165 satin chrome pull is a solid brass handle designed for cabinet and furniture projects that call for a precise 3-1/2 inch center to center drilling. The pull uses a satin chrome finish over solid brass, which delivers a muted metallic look while leveraging brass construction for a substantial feel on doors and drawers. The Tarnish-Free Surface Series designation signals that the finish is engineered to resist surface tarnishing over time, which matters on frequently handled fronts in kitchens, baths, and built-ins. A 4 inch overall length gives a compact footprint across the stile or rail, useful when laying out multiple pulls on smaller fronts. The 7/8 inch projection sets the hand clearance off the face, supporting a comfortable grip without the handle standing too proud. A 7/16 inch width keeps the profile slim, which helps align this pull with clean, simple design lines.

Key Tarnish-Free Satin Chrome Pull Advantages

• The Tarnish-Free Surface Series finish on this satin chrome pull is designed to resist tarnishing, which helps maintain a consistent appearance on high-touch cabinet and furniture installations over long-term use.
• Solid brass construction provides a dense base material for the pull, which supports a sturdy feel when opening and closing cabinet doors or drawers in everyday residential or light commercial environments.
• A 3-1/2 inch center to center dimension sets a standard drill layout, which simplifies aligning multiple pulls across doors and drawers that share this common hole spacing.
• The 4 inch overall length keeps the pull compact on the face, which helps when positioning hardware on narrower rails or smaller doors while still giving enough bar length for a full hand grasp.
• A 7/8 inch projection sets the pull off the cabinet face, which provides finger clearance behind the grip while limiting how far the hardware extends into walkways or tight spaces.
• The 7/16 inch width creates a slim front profile, which supports clean visual lines on modern or transitional cabinetry where a lower visual mass is preferred.

Installation Layout And Fit Dimensions

This satin chrome pull is built around a 3-1/2 inch center to center dimension, so the mounting holes are spaced to match that common drilling pattern for cabinet hardware. With a 4 inch overall length, there is 1/4 inch of handle extending beyond each side of the hole centers, which helps with visual centering during layout and alignment. The 7/8 inch projection defines how far the grip stands off the cabinet face, which guides planning for clearances behind the pull on doors and drawer fronts. A 7/16 inch width means the bar remains relatively narrow across the stile, useful when fitting between neighboring details like panel profiles or edge treatments. Together, these dimensions support straightforward drilling, layout, and repeatable positioning across multiple fronts in a run.

Using This Tarnish-Free Satin Chrome Pull In Projects

Where This Solid Brass Pull Works Best

This Colonial Bronze 165 Series pull is suited to cabinet and furniture applications that need a 3-1/2 inch center to center satin chrome handle. The Tarnish-Free Surface Series finish supports use on frequently touched locations such as kitchen wall and base cabinets, bathroom vanities, and built-in storage, because the finish is engineered to resist surface tarnishing. Solid brass material gives the pull a substantial feel that pairs well with both painted and stained fronts, helping it serve in residential woodworking as well as millwork projects that specify decorative hardware from the Colonial Bronze family. The compact 4 inch overall length also makes this pull appropriate for smaller doors and drawer fronts where a larger handle would visually dominate the panel.

Dimensional Details That Support Consistent Results

The 3-1/2 inch center to center drilling on this pull is a widely used spacing, which supports consistent layouts when repeating hardware across a bank of doors or drawers sharing that measurement. With a 4 inch overall length, the pull extends just 1/4 inch beyond each mounting hole, providing a predictable edge reveal that simplifies aligning hardware visually with door rails or drawer edges. The 7/8 inch projection determines the stand-off from the face, helping maintain comfortable finger clearance while keeping the pull from protruding excessively into room space on narrow walkways or galley installations. A 7/16 inch width gives a slim bar that sits neatly on face frames and slab fronts, which is useful when coordinating with other decorative hardware and moldings in the same project.
