Rockwood 790 Grainger Coat Hook, 1-7/8" Projection, 1-1/4" Wide by 1-3/8" Height

The 790 projects 1-7/8 inches off the mounting surface, on a base measuring 1-3/8 inches high by 1-1/4 inches wide. That's a small single hook: enough reach to hold a coat on a hanger loop or a robe, but it stays tight to the door so it won't catch a shoulder in a narrow toilet compartment or behind a swinging door.

Two #6 x 5/8 inch oval head sheet metal screws ship with the hook. Those bite fine into hollow metal doors and frames, and into wood. On drywall or tile with no blocking behind it, the 5/8 inch length won't reach anything solid, so plan on anchors or a backing plate of your own.

The 790 is built to ANSI A156.16, the BHMA standard for auxiliary door hardware, under type number L03111. If you're writing a submittal or matching a spec that calls out an A156.16 L031-series hook, this hook answers that callout directly.

The Trimco 3070-1 Coat and Hat Hook, part of the Trimco 3070 Series, is the nearest peer. Both are commercial-line coat and hat hooks from architectural door hardware makers rather than bath accessory lines, so a facility standardizing on hook hardware across restroom partitions, classroom doors, or office doors can specify either. The Rockwood 790 is cast brass with a 1-7/8 inch projection and a 1-1/4 inch wide by 1-3/8 inch high body, and it ships with two #6 x 5/8 inch oval head sheet metal screws.

Go to a double hook. The Deltana 55D2010 Double Robe Hook in the 55D Series and the Deltana 88DRH Double Robe Hook in the 88 Series are both solid brass double hooks. Orca Hardware also offers doubles in the 4854 Blakely and the 4954 Whidbey. Emtek's doubles include the 2266 SELECT Knurled Tip Double Hook with Rosette and the 2306 Sandcast Bronze Double Hook. The Rockwood 790 is a single-hook design with a 1-7/8 inch projection, so anything hung on it shares one arm.

They mount the same way but they are built for different jobs. The Rockwood 790 is a coat and hat hook meeting ANSI A156.16 under function L03111, which is the architectural hardware standard a spec writer references. The robe hooks in the Deltana BBN2009 BBN Series, Emtek 2606 Traditional Bath Hardware, and Orca Hardware 2753 Cypress Series are bath hardware lines, sold to coordinate with towel bars and paper holders in a finished bathroom. On a corridor door, restroom partition, or a spec that calls out A156.16, the 790 is the one that answers the callout. In a hotel guest bath where the hook has to match the rest of the suite, the bath-line hooks are the better fit.

The Trimco 7010 fOCAL Robe Hook and Stop combines both functions in a single 7010 Series unit, so one wall-mounted piece catches the door and carries a garment. The Rockwood 790 is a hook only, with a 1-7/8 inch projection and a 1-1/4 inch by 1-3/8 inch body, and it takes two #6 x 5/8 inch screws. Where the door and the coat hook are two separate problems on the same opening, the 7010 handles them together; where the hook goes on the door face or a partition and no stop is wanted, the 790 stays a hook.

Two: 626 satin chrome and 613 oil-rubbed dark bronze. Satin chrome is the one that matches most commercial lever and closer hardware in a school, office, or hospital restroom; 613 is for openings already trimmed in dark bronze. The body is cast brass underneath either finish.

Single hook, one arm, 1-7/8 inches of projection. If you need two hanging points at one location, a double is the different part: the Deltana 88DRH and 55D2010 are solid brass doubles, and Orca Hardware's 4854 Blakely and 4954 Whidbey are doubles as well. For one garment per hook, the 790 is the smaller, plainer piece.

Closest like-for-like is the Trimco 3070-1 coat and hat hook, the same commercial coat-hook idea from a different manufacturer. If the room is a residential bath or a decorative package rather than an institutional corridor, the Emtek 2606 solid brass robe hook or the Orca 2753 Cypress robe hook are the styled single hooks. Emtek's 25050 is wrought steel rather than brass if you want a different material entirely.

The 790 is cast brass, not plated steel, so the base metal won't rust the way a steel hook does when the finish gets nicked in a humid room. That's the reason to pay for brass in shower rooms, locker rooms, and restrooms. Emtek's 25050 robe hook is a wrought steel alternative if corrosion isn't a concern in your space.

Surface mount, two screws, no boring or mortising. The two #6 x 5/8 inch oval head sheet metal screws that come with it go straight through the 1-1/4 inch wide base into the door or wall, so it goes on an existing door without pulling it or cutting anything.

The 790 is a plain cast brass utility hook offered in 613 Oil-Rubbed Dark Bronze and 626 Satin Chrome. For an opening where the hook is meant to be seen, the Emtek 2306 Sandcast Bronze Double Hook comes from the Sandcast Bronze Bath Hardware line, the Emtek 2266 SELECT Knurled Tip Double Hook mounts on a rosette, and Orca Hardware runs styled patterns including the 3654 Swirl Robe Hook and the 2753 Cypress Robe Hook. Deltana's 88DRH in the 88 Series is a solid brass double if a plainer decorative profile is wanted.

The Emtek 25050 Wrought Steel Robe Hook is a wrought steel hook from Emtek's Wrought Steel Bath Hardware line, the one option in the comparable range not built on a brass body. The Rockwood 790 is cast brass, as are the Deltana 55D2010 and 88DRH doubles, which are both solid brass.

Deltana runs both in its BB families: the BBN2009 Single Robe Hook in the BBN Series and the BBS2010 Double Robe Hook in the BBS Series. Orca Hardware carries doubles in the 4854 Blakely and 4954 Whidbey series alongside singles in the 2753 Cypress and 3654 Swirl series. The Rockwood 790 is a single coat and hat hook built to ANSI A156.16 function L03111, so on a job where some openings need one arm and others need two, pairing within one of those series keeps the look consistent.

Two finishes cover it: 626 satin chrome and 613 oil-rubbed dark bronze, both over the same cast brass 790 body with the same 1-7/8 inch projection and 1-3/8 by 1-1/4 inch footprint. Buy one model in two finishes and every hook in the portfolio mounts to the same two-screw pattern, which keeps your attic stock down to one part.
