Emtek 86322US14 Cadet Cabinet Knob Polished Nickel

Product Description

The EMTEK 86322US14 is the Cadet cabinet knob in a Polished Nickel Lifetime finish, sized at 1-1/4 inches. This solid knob is designed for cabinet doors and drawers in residential and light commercial millwork applications. The US14 designation indicates a Polished Nickel finish, known for its bright, reflective surface and durable protective coating. At 0.1 pounds, it is a lightweight single-unit hardware component. Installers and finish carpenters specify this knob when a clean, transitional profile is needed on face-frame or frameless cabinetry. It ships and is sold individually as a single unit.

The Cadet knob suits kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, built-ins, and furniture-grade millwork. Its simple cylindrical or rounded profile fits transitional and contemporary design schemes. Finish carpenters, cabinetmakers, and trim carpenters install this hardware during the final stages of a millwork project. The Polished Nickel Lifetime finish is intended to resist tarnish and corrosion under normal interior conditions, making it a practical choice for high-use cabinet applications in both residential kitchens and commercial millwork.

Installation Notes

Cabinet knobs are installed by finish carpenters or cabinetmakers using a standard drill and screwdriver. Power down any adjacent electrical components before drilling near built-in cabinetry. Use a cabinet hardware jig to ensure consistent hole placement across multiple doors and drawers. Follow the cabinet manufacturer's recommended bore specifications to avoid tear-out on finished surfaces.
