Deltana SCWS1010 Wood Screw, Steel, #10 x 1"

Match the size and the finish. The SCWS1010 is a #10 x 1 inch steel wood screw sold each, and it comes in the same finish names Deltana uses on its trim hardware, so you can order one screw in oil rubbed bronze, polished brass, or whichever finish is on the piece you are repairing rather than buying a whole box in the wrong color. Confirm your original is a #10 gauge at 1 inch before ordering, since Deltana's steel screw range covers other lengths.

Steel, not stainless. Both the material and the substrate on the SCWS1010 are steel with a plated or coated finish over it, so it is built for interior door trim and accessory mounting. On an exterior opening, a coastal site, or anywhere the fastener sees standing moisture, specify a stainless screw instead. Deltana also classifies this screw as residential rather than commercial duty.

Not on its own. The SCWS1010 is a wood screw, which means it is cutting threads into solid wood, so it needs to land in a stud, a jamb, a blocking piece, or the door itself. Into hollow drywall it will spin out under load. If your mounting point is drywall only, set an anchor rated for the pull you expect and use the fastener that comes with it.

Twelve finishes: oil rubbed bronze, polished nickel, brushed nickel, antique nickel, paint black, polished chrome, brushed chrome, zinc dichromate, polished brass, brushed brass, antique brass, and prime coat white. That range exists so the screw head disappears into the hardware it fastens rather than sitting on it as a bright spot. Prime coat white takes paint if you are matching a painted casing, and zinc dichromate is the plain plated option when the screw will not be seen.

Individually. The unit of measure on the SCWS1010 is each, so you buy the exact count you need. That matters on a repair where you are down two screws in a specific finish, and it means quantity is on you when you are fastening out a full run of hardware.

Deltana lists this steel wood screw as residential. For a high traffic commercial opening, a school corridor, or a multi-family common door, spec the fastener the commercial hardware manufacturer supplies with the device rather than substituting this one. For apartment interiors, single family work, and light duty door trim it is the right class of screw.

Yes in hardwood. A #10 shank is a fairly heavy gauge for a 1 inch screw, and driving it dry into oak, maple, or a hardwood jamb risks splitting the stock or snapping the screw, especially close to an edge where door trim usually mounts. Drill a pilot for the root diameter and a clearance hole through the hardware. In pine or poplar you can usually drive it straight, though a pilot still protects a plated finish head from cam-out damage.
