Deltana FP178 Flush Pull, Round, Heavy-Duty, 1-7/8", Solid Brass

The Deltana FP178 round flush pull has a 1-1/2 inch base and a 1-7/8 inch face. The base is what drops into the hole, so an existing bore of about 1-1/2 inches takes it, and the 1-7/8 inch face rim covers the edge of that cutout. If the existing hole was bored larger than 1-1/2 inches, the face will not hide it and you need a bigger cup.

It's rated commercial and built as the heavy-duty version of the round flush pull, in solid brass. That's the grade a property manager wants on tenant pocket doors or a contractor wants on a commercial slider, as opposed to a light stamped cup meant for a cabinet.

A flush cup gives you a fingertip only, which is fine for sliding a door open but poor for dragging a recessed pocket door out of the wall pocket. If that's the problem, a drop-ring style like the Trimco 1066/1067/1068 sits flush until you flip the ring up and get a full finger hook on it. On a residential passage or dummy pocket door, the Baldwin Estate 8601 pocket door pull is the set built for that application.

No, that's the wrong part for it. A standard brass cup pull has a lip a ligature can be tied to. For patient rooms and other anti-ligature applications, the ABH 1911 Series flush door pull is the ligature-resistant design built for that use.

The Deltana FP178 is a round flush pull with a 1-7/8 inch face and a 1-1/2 inch base. If the opening calls for a wider round face, the Orca Hardware TH-FPULL is a 2-1/8 inch diameter round flush pull, so it covers a slightly larger cutout in the same round profile. Both are face-flush pulls for sliding, pocket, and cabinet doors.

The Deltana FP178 is a solid brass decorative flush pull for sliding, pocket, and cabinet doors. For a room where ligature is the governing concern, the ABH 1911 Series is a flush door pull with a ligature-resistant design, which is the feature that decides that opening. Specify the ABH 1911 Series there and keep the FP178 for standard sliding and pocket door work.

They are not interchangeable. The Deltana FP178 is a plain round flush pull with a 1-7/8 inch face, no latching function. The Baldwin Estate 8601 is a pocket door pull for passage and dummy applications, meaning it is specified by door function rather than as a bare pull. Order the FP178 when you want a simple flush grip and the Baldwin 8601 when the pocket door is being specified as a passage or dummy set.

Any door where you want the hardware sitting flush with the face rather than projecting: sliding doors, pocket doors, and cabinet doors. Nothing sticks out past the face, so a pocket door can pass fully into the wall and a bypass slider can run past its neighbor without the pull catching.

Solid brass, not a plated zinc casting. That matters on a pull that gets a fingertip load thousands of times: the brass body carries the wear rather than a thin plating over soft metal, and it will not crack at the rim the way a die-cast cup can.

Twelve: PVD Polished Brass, Polished Brass, Unlacquered Brass, Brushed Brass, Antique Brass, Polished Nickel, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Paint Black. If you're matching existing hardware across a building, PVD Polished Brass holds its color rather than aging, while Unlacquered Brass is the one that will patina over time. Two different answers to what looks like the same brass door.

Usually yes. The FP178 is sold each, so a pocket door you operate from both sides takes two, one per face. A bypass slider where only the outer face is reachable takes one per panel. Count the faces you actually touch, then order that many.

A round cup like the Deltana FP178 drops into a single bored hole, so a drill and a 1-1/2 inch bit does the prep, no router or mortise chisel. Rectangular cup pulls such as the Trimco 1060/1061 or the larger Trimco 1111 need a routed rectangular mortise, but give you more finger room, which is what you want on a heavy commercial slider. For a light pocket or cabinet door, round is the faster install.

The Deltana FP178 is a round solid brass flush pull with a 1-7/8 inch face, mounted face flush in the door. The Trimco 1060/1061 and Trimco 1111 are flush cup pulls, and the Trimco 1111 is the large size in that group. A cup pull gives you a recessed cup to hook fingers into rather than the round FP178 profile, so the choice is about the recess shape the door and the user need, not about the door type.

The Deltana FP178 is a face-flush pull, so it sits in a prepared recess in the door face. The Trimco 1059 is a drive-in flush cup pull, and the drive-in construction is what changes the prep on a job where you are cutting in pulls across a run of doors. If the prep is already routed for a round face-flush pull, stay with the FP178 in the finish that matches the rest of the opening.

The Deltana FP178 is a fixed round flush pull, 1-7/8 inch face in solid brass, and it stays flush in the door face. If the door needs something the user can grip and pull without reaching into a recess, the Trimco 1066/1067/1068 are drop-ring flush pulls, where a ring drops out of the recess to give a full grip. Both mount flush; the drop-ring adds the moving ring.

The Deltana FP178 is a conventional cup that seats in a bored hole. If you're chasing install speed on a production job, the Trimco 1059 is a drive-in flush cup pull, which is the style that presses into the bore rather than being fastened through the face.

In most cases yes. The pull comes in twelve finishes covering the standard commercial and decorative range, including Polished Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Antique Brass, so it can be specified to whatever the rest of the openings are running. For a fleet of units, order one pull in the finish you think matches and hold it against an existing lever before committing to the full count, since brass tones vary between manufacturers.
