Emtek 2211 Round Brass Flush Pulls (2-1/2" Diameter)

Yes. The 2211 round flush cup pull drops into the standard 2-1/8 inch door prep, which is the same bore used for a tubular lockset. If you are converting a swing door to a pocket or bypass door, the existing cross bore takes the pull without a new cutout. Overall diameter is 2-1/2 inches, so the trim ring covers the bore edge.

Emtek lists the 2211 as residential hardware. For a single-family, multi-family unit interior, or a light-use office pocket door it is the right class of part. For a high-traffic institutional corridor or anything on a fire-rated opening, specify commercial-grade door hardware instead.

Twelve finishes: Medium Bronze, Tumbled White Bronze, Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4), and French Antique (US7). If you are matching existing Emtek trim on other doors in the building, order the same US code and the round cup will read as part of the same set.

A round cup like the Emtek 2211 is the simple pull-only option: it gives you a finger cup to slide the door and nothing more. It suits a pocket or bypass door that does not need to latch, or a swing door being converted where the 2-1/8 inch bore already exists. If the door needs to lock or latch, a rectangular pocket door lock with an edge pull is the type you want instead, since the cup pull has no latching mechanism. At 2-1/2 inches diameter the round cup is also a smaller visual footprint than a rectangular mortised pull, which needs a routed pocket rather than a bore.

Usually, yes. A cup pull works from one face only, so a pocket or bypass door that gets used from both sides needs one 2211 on each face, and both bores have to line up. Order the same finish for both. On a bypass pair, that is four pulls for two doors if both leaves are handled from either side.

Both are flush cup pulls for sliding and pocket doors. The Emtek 2211 is a plain round cup, 2-1/2 inches in diameter, 1/8 inch projection, in brass. The Baldwin 0397 SOL from the Estate series pairs a flush cup with a solid spindle ring pull, so it gives you a fold-out ring to grip instead of just a finger recess. Pick the ring pull if the door is heavy and needs a real grip; pick the 2211 if you want the cleaner face and are working from a 2-1/8 inch bore.

Brass, both in the substrate and the finished material. That is why the unlacquered brass option (US3NL) works the way it does, it patinas as real brass rather than wearing through a plating. For a property manager repainting or matching older brass trim, a brass cup takes cleaning better than a die-cast one.

No. The 2211 is purely mechanical, a brass cup set into a bore with no electrical component, so there is nothing to wire and nothing to fail when the power drops.
