1'-0'' (304.8 mm)

1'-0 inch (304.8 mm) drill-center pulls: 12 inch in foot-imperial notation

1'-0 inch (304.8 mm) drill-center pulls are the same 12 inch standard listed in foot-imperial notation, which a handful of manufacturers prefer for their longer pulls. The 304.8 mm spacing is one of the most heavily used appliance pull standards. It's common on panel-ready dishwashers, refrigerator drawer fronts, and tall pantry doors. The catalog at this listing overlaps almost entirely with the inch-form 12 inch listing.

Why this notation exists

Some hardware brands switch from inch-only notation to foot-and-inch notation once a pull crosses the foot mark, partly for clarity and partly because the catalog convention dates to traditions in architectural ironwork. The physical pull is identical to a 12 inch pull listed at 12 inch (304.8 mm). Most search traffic at this listing comes from architects and specifiers who work in the foot-inch system rather than from end consumers.

What hardware looks like at this length

Bar pulls and architectural T-pulls dominate, with squared and flat-strap profiles particularly common. The construction is engineered for the load a panel-ready appliance places on the mounting points, which is why heavier solid-bar pulls feel noticeably more substantial than lightweight tubular ones at this size. The finish catalog spans the full range, with the strongest selection in brushed stainless, matte black, satin brass, and aged bronze.

Adjacent sizes worth comparing

The inch-form twin is 12 inch (304.8 mm). For narrower fronts, see 10 inch (254 mm). For wider, see 14 inch (355.6 mm). Most retail catalogs use the inch-form listing rather than this notation, so cross-shopping between the two pages widens the selection on any panel-ready dishwasher or refrigerator drawer replacement project. The hardware is interchangeable; only the label differs.
