FAQs
Does this knob come with the necessary mounting screws?
Yes, the product is designed to be ready for installation with all necessary components included.
Can I use these knobs in a high-moisture area like a bathroom?
While durable, bronze is a metal that can react to moisture; it is recommended to keep them dry and wipe them down if they come into contact with water.
What is the diameter of the knob?
The diameter of the cabinet knob is 31 mm.
Is the backplate removable?
The backplate is designed as part of the aesthetic set; while physically detachable, it is intended to be used with the knob for the best visual effect.
Will this match other Brass Bee products?
Yes, the Brass Bee range features consistent finishes, allowing you to coordinate these knobs with their other Art Deco handle and T-bar options.
Troubleshooting
The knob spins or feels loose after installation.
Check that the mounting screw is fully tightened from the inside of the cabinet; you may need to use a washer if the hole in the drawer front is slightly too large.
The backplate does not sit flush against the surface.
Ensure there is no debris behind the backplate and check that the drawer front is perfectly flat; if the drawer has a recessed panel, ensure the backplate is not overlapping the frame edge.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality antique bronze finish that offers a premium, vintage aesthetic.
- Integrated backplate provides enhanced durability and a complete, professional look.
- Geometric design complements both historic period homes and contemporary spaces.
- Solid construction ensures a firm and comfortable grip during daily use.
Cons
- Bronze finish may develop a patina over time if not regularly maintained.
- The 34 mm projection might feel prominent on very shallow drawer fronts.
- Requires specific alignment during installation to ensure the backplate sits perfectly flush.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing these knobs is a straightforward process, though it requires attention to detail to keep the backplate level. Ensure you measure the thickness of your cabinet door or drawer front before selecting the appropriate screw length to avoid interior protrusion. To maintain the bronze finish, clean the knobs gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can strip the antique finish and damage the protective coating. If the knob becomes loose over time due to frequent use, a simple tightening of the rear mounting screw will restore its stability.
