Deltana PW300 Wire Pull, 3"

The PW300 is Deltana's 3 inch wire pull. The 3 inch is the pull's overall length, as stated in the product data (Length: 3"). If you are matching an existing drilling pattern, measure your hole spacing rather than the overall length, because on a wire pull the two mounting posts sit inboard of the ends.

Nine finishes: PVD Polished Brass, Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, and Paint Black. If the pulls will get daily hand contact and you want the brass look to stay put, the PVD Polished Brass is the coated version; standard Polished Brass is the living finish that will mellow over time.

The PW300 itself is the 3 inch length only. Deltana's wire pull line runs in a range of sizes with the same profile, so you can step up to a longer wire pull for wide drawers and keep the 3 inch on doors and small drawers, with all of them ordered in one matching finish. Order the same finish name across every size so the plating batch and tone line up.

Check your spacing against the pull's own post centers, not the 3 inch overall length. The published figure for the PW300 is length, so a drawer bored at 3 inch centers may not line up. If your existing bores are 3 inch center-to-center and you want a drop-in match, a pull specified by center-to-center, such as the Trimco 553 Series at 3 inch ctc or the Schaub 10010 edge pull at 3 inch ctc, is the safer retrofit.

The Trimco 553 Series drawer pull is the closest match on size, listed at 3 inch center to center, the same 3 inch dimension the Deltana PW300 carries. The PW300 is solid brass; the Trimco 553 is catalogued as a drawer pull series. If the 3 inch spacing already drilled in the drawer front is what you are matching, either lands on the same hole pattern.

Step up to the Trimco 562 Series, which is offered in 3-1/2 inch, 4 inch, and 96mm center to center, or the Omnia 1968/102 modern cabinet pull, a forged solid brass pull at 4 inch center to center. Both give you more spread than the PW300's 3 inch size while keeping a similar drawer-pull format. For an appliance-scale front, the Schaub 79-8 Steamworks is an 8 inch pull.

Deltana classifies the PW300 as residential, and that is the application it is specified for. Deltana's wire pulls are used in both residential and commercial settings, but for high-traffic institutional millwork most spec writers go to a heavier bar pull. For apartment kitchens, casework in a leasing office, or hospitality furniture, the 3 inch solid brass wire pull is in its lane.

A wire pull is a thin round-section loop mounted on the face of the door or drawer, which is what the PW300 is. An edge pull, like the Schaub 10010 Sabre edge pull at 3 inch center-to-center, mounts on the edge of the panel for flush or handle-free looks. A T-bar pull, like the Orca Hardware CK-12001 with a 2 inch bar width, is a heavier squared bar in steel. If you want minimal visual weight in solid brass, the wire pull is the lightest of the three.

The Omnia 1968/102 is a forged solid brass modern cabinet pull with 4 inch center-to-center spacing, and the Omnia 1970 is another forged solid brass modern pull with a 1-1/4 inch projection. Both are chunkier profiles than the 3 inch Deltana wire pull while staying in solid brass. For a drawer pull sized close to the PW300, the Trimco 553 Series runs at 3 inch center-to-center.

They share the 3 inch center to center dimension and solid brass construction, but they mount differently. The Schaub 10010 is an edge pull, designed to be grasped at the edge of a door or drawer front, while the Deltana PW300 is a wire pull that stands off the face of the front. If you are replacing face-mounted wire pulls, the 10010 is not a drop-in even though the spacing reads the same.

Knobs use a single center hole rather than the two-hole pattern a 3 inch wire pull needs. Orca Hardware's Bachelor Collection CK-15030 is a round cabinet knob at 1-1/4 inch diameter, CK-16030 is the round ring version at the same 1-1/4 inch diameter, and the Blackcomb CK-17025 is a square knob at 25mm diameter. Mixing knobs on doors with PW300 pulls on drawers is a common split, but plan the boring accordingly.

The Deltana PW300 is a solid brass wire pull designated for residential applications. If you want a steel-bodied pull, the Orca Hardware CK-12001 T-pull bar is steel with a 2 inch bar width in satin nickel. It is a bar-style pull rather than a wire pull, so the look differs, but the material change is the point of the swap for a property manager standardizing across apartments.

The Deltana PW300 is a simple wire-form pull in solid brass. For more shaped profiles, the Emtek Schaub Collection offers the Alexander, Art Deco, and Bar series cabinet pulls, and the Emtek SELECT 8405 series covers cabinet knobs and pulls. The Omnia 1969, 1970, and 1971 series are forged solid brass modern pulls with stated projections of 1-3/16 inch, 1-1/4 inch, and 1-3/16 inch respectively, which matters if your fingers need clearance past a nearby wall or appliance.
