Emtek 86341FB Sandcast Bronze Round Cabinet Knob Backplate

Product Description

The EMTEK 86341FB is a sandcast bronze round backplate designed to mount beneath a cabinet knob, providing a finished base that covers the mounting hardware and adds a layered detail to cabinetry. Finished in Flat Black Bronze, this backplate suits traditional, transitional, and industrial-style interiors. It ships as a single unit and is intended for use with compatible cabinet knobs sold separately. Fabricated from sandcast bronze, the piece carries the natural texture and subtle variation characteristic of the casting process, distinguishing it from stamped or die-cast hardware.

This backplate is used in residential and light commercial cabinetry applications, including kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, built-ins, and furniture pieces. It is typically installed by finish carpenters, cabinetmakers, or skilled DIYers during new construction, renovation, or hardware replacement projects. The Flat Black Bronze finish coordinates with a range of metal tones and works well in spaces where a darker, aged-metal aesthetic is the design intent.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by finish carpenters or experienced DIYers using standard hand tools. Ensure the cabinet door or drawer face is free of obstructions before marking the mounting hole location. Do not overtighten the mounting screw, as excessive force can crack or warp the cabinet face or damage the backplate. Follow any applicable local building or finish carpentry standards for hardware installation in commercial settings.
