Delaney Denali 1100 Series - Towel Ring

Delaney lists the Denali 1100 Series towel ring as residential. For apartment units, condos, and single-family rentals that is the intended use. For a high-traffic public restroom, look at a solid brass ring instead, like the Deltana 88TR6 in the 88 Series or the Deltana 98C2008 Classic, both of which are solid brass constructions.

Yes, that is the case the Denali 1100 Series fits. It is a residential-rated towel ring in a single design with five finish choices, so you can standardize one part across every unit and only vary the finish by building or by unit tier. Ordering the same model in one finish also means the replacement you pull off the shelf two years from now still matches the towel bar and hooks already up on the wall.

The Deltana 88TR6 is a 6 inch towel ring from the 88 Series built in solid brass, and it covers the same wall-mounted ring format as the Denali 1100 Series towel ring. The Deltana 98C2008 is another solid brass option, a 6 inch ring in the 98C Series with a classic profile. Both are single-ring bath accessories mounted to the wall on a post, so either drops into the same spot a Denali ring would occupy. The Denali towel ring is offered in US26 Polished Chrome, US15 Satin Nickel, US4 Satin Brass, US19 Black, and US12P Tuscany Bronze, so match the finish family you already have on the other bath fittings before you swap brands.

It is the same type of part - a 6 inch solid brass towel ring - but the 98C2008 belongs to the Deltana 98C Series, while the Denali towel ring belongs to the Delaney Denali 1100 Series. Different series means a different post and ring profile and a different finish coding, so on a repeat order where the other bath pieces in the room are Denali, the two will read as different hardware even though both hold one hand towel. Note also that the 98C2008 is a limited line. If you are matching an existing room, stay in the series already installed; if you are doing the whole bath fresh, either series works as long as every piece comes from it.

For solid brass, the Deltana 88TR6 is a 6 inch ring in the 88 Series and the Deltana 98C2008 is a 6 inch Classic ring in the 98C Series, both solid brass. Deltana also offers larger rings: the BBN2008 at 6-1/4 inches and the BBS2008 at 6-1/2 inches. Emtek's bath hardware rings come in distinct style families, Modern Brass, Traditional, Transitional, and Sandcast Bronze, if you are matching a particular door hardware look.

Finish is the only choice on the Denali 1100 Series towel ring. There is one ring, ordered in US26 Polished Chrome, US15 Satin Nickel, US4 Satin Brass, US19 Black, or US12P Tuscany Bronze. If you need to specify a particular ring diameter for a spec sheet, the Deltana rings are the ones that publish a size: 6 inch on the 88TR6, 6-1/4 inch on the BBN2008, and 6-1/2 inch on the BBS2008.

Emtek builds towel rings in four distinct bath hardware lines, so the style choice is the main decision. The Modern Brass Towel Ring comes from the Modern Brass Bath Hardware line, the Traditional Brass Towel Ring from the Traditional Bath Hardware line, and the Transitional Brass Towel Ring from the Transitional Bath Hardware line. The Sandcast Bronze Towel Ring sits in the Sandcast Bronze Bath Hardware line for a heavier cast look. The Denali towel ring is a residential-duty item in the Denali 1100 Series, so all of these serve the same apartment, condo, or single-family bath application and differ in the visual family they belong to.

Orca Hardware carries a towel ring in each of four design series: the 2760 in the 27-Cypress Series, the 3660 in the 36-Swirl Series, the 4860 in the 48-Blakely Series, and the 9160 in the 91-Waldron Series. Picking one series and buying the ring from it across every unit keeps the look identical from door to door. The Delaney Denali 1100 Series towel ring works the same way if you want the whole turn on one Delaney series, with five finishes to pick from: US26 Polished Chrome, US15 Satin Nickel, US4 Satin Brass, US19 Black, and US12P Tuscany Bronze. Whichever route you take, lock the series and finish before the first unit so later units do not drift.

Delaney's Denali 1100 Series ring in US12P Tuscany Bronze is the closest match within the Denali line for a warm dark bronze scheme, and US19 Black is the option if the rest of the trim is flat black. If the bathroom is being finished to a hand-forged bronze look rather than a plated one, Emtek's Sandcast Bronze towel ring is the alternative to look at, since it comes out of a sandcast bronze bath hardware family rather than a plated finish range.

A towel ring like the Denali 1100 Series holds a hand towel and takes up roughly the width of the ring, so it goes beside or above the vanity where a bar will not fit. A bar is what you want for a bath towel that needs to dry flat. In rental and multi-family work the common setup is a ring at the sink and a bar on the wall by the tub, both ordered in the same finish code so they read as one set.

The Emtek Sandcast Bronze Towel Ring is the bronze option, drawn from the Emtek Sandcast Bronze Bath Hardware line. The brass alternatives include the Deltana 88TR6 and 98C2008, both solid brass, and Emtek's Modern, Traditional, and Transitional brass towel rings. Sandcast bronze carries the texture and variation of the casting process on its surface; brass pieces present a smoother, more uniform face. The Delaney Denali 1100 Series towel ring offers US12P Tuscany Bronze and US4 Satin Brass among its finishes if you want the bronze or brass appearance while staying in the Denali series.
