Trimco 7010 fOCAL Robe Hook and Stop

The 7010 fOCAL hook projects 3-3/8 inches overall, on a 5/8 inch diameter post with a 1-1/4 inch diameter backplate. That projection is what lets it double as a stop: mounted on the wall behind the door, the hook body takes the door's swing before the leaf or the lockset trim hits the wall. Plan the mounting height so the door strikes the post, not the hook tip.

Trimco lists the 7010 fOCAL as commercial hardware, which is the practical difference between it and most of the robe hooks in this category. It is specified for hotel guest rooms, dorms, locker rooms, restrooms, and healthcare doors, where the same hook gets pulled on daily and the door stop function has to hold up. If you are outfitting a residential bath and want a decorative look, Emtek's 2606 solid brass robe hook or Deltana's BBN2009 single robe hook are the bath-hardware style options instead.

That is the point of the 7010 fOCAL. It is a single piece that serves as a garment hook and as a bumper for the door, so a hotel or dorm room needs one item and one mounting point instead of a hook plus a wall stop. Where you want a hook only and a stop is already installed, a plain robe hook like the Orca 2753 Cypress or the Emtek 25050 wrought steel hook does the job without the stop duty.

The Trimco 7010 fOCAL is a single hook. When the opening needs to take two garments on one mounting point, the double-hook options are the Deltana 55D2010 Double Robe Hook in the 55D Series, the Deltana 88DRH Double Robe Hook in the 88 Series, the Deltana BBS2010 Double Robe Hook in the BBS Series, the Emtek 2266 SELECT Knurled Tip Double Hook with Rosette, the Emtek 2306 Sandcast Bronze Double Hook, the Orca Hardware 4854 Blakely Double Robe Hook, and the Orca Hardware 4954 Whidbey Double Robe Hook. A double hook uses one set of fasteners for two hanging points, which is why hospitality and multi-family specs often move to it when a guest room or unit door needs more capacity than a single prong.

The Trimco 7010 fOCAL Robe Hook and Stop is a single hook, 3-3/8 inches long with a 5/8 inch diameter body on a 1-1/4 inch diameter backplate. For a single-prong equivalent from another maker, the Emtek 2606 Solid Brass Robe Hook and the Deltana BBN2009 Single Robe Hook are both single hooks. The Orca Hardware 2753 Cypress Robe Hook is another single hook option. All three carry a single prong the same way the 7010 does, so they suit the same one-garment application behind a restroom or office door.

Nine BHMA finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, and 630 satin stainless. Those are the standard BHMA finish codes, so if your levers and hinges are specified 626 or 630, order the hook in the same number and it will read as a set. 630 satin stainless and 626 satin chrome are the two that show up most on commercial openings.

The footprint on the wall or door face is the 1-1/4 inch diameter backplate, so it fits on narrow trim, a stile, or a tight strip of tile between a mirror and a door casing. Overall it stands 3-3/8 inches off the mounting surface, which is the number that matters for corridor clearance and for how far the door travels before the hook stops it.

No, the stop is built into the hook, so ordering is just the model and a finish code. The only decision on the order form is which of the nine finishes, and how many openings you are covering. For a fleet rollout across guest rooms or dorm rooms, pick one finish that matches your standard lever finish and order it across the whole building so replacements down the road are a single line item.

The 7010 fOCAL is commercial door hardware built around a stop function, sold in BHMA finish codes so it lines up with the rest of a commercial opening. The alternatives are bath-suite hardware: Emtek's 2606 traditional solid brass and 25050 wrought steel hooks, Deltana's 55D, 88, BBN and BBS series hooks in solid brass, and Orca's Cypress, Swirl, Blakely and Whidbey hooks. Those are chosen to match a towel bar and a tissue holder in a bathroom. The Trimco is chosen to match a lever and a hinge on a door.

The Trimco 7010 fOCAL is a commercial hook with a plain 5/8 inch diameter body and a round 1-1/4 inch backplate. Where the opening is decorative, the peers carry a shaped or textured profile instead: the Emtek 2266 SELECT is a knurled tip double hook with a rosette, the Emtek 2306 is a sandcast bronze double hook, the Emtek 25050 is a wrought steel robe hook, and the Orca Hardware line offers the 2753 Cypress, the 3654 Swirl, the 4854 Blakely and the 4954 Whidbey, each a different styled series. Those read as bath and decorative hardware, where the 7010 reads as flat commercial trim.

The Trimco 7010 fOCAL comes in nine finishes including 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless steel and 630 satin stainless steel, which is why it standardizes easily across a facility with mixed finish schedules. Among the peers, the Deltana 55D2010 and the Deltana 88DRH are solid brass, and the Emtek 2606 is a solid brass robe hook, so those follow brass finishing the same way. The Emtek 25050 is wrought steel and the Emtek 2306 is sandcast bronze, which are different base materials and will take a different finish character.

They are both single robe hooks, but they are not dimensional twins. The Trimco 7010 fOCAL projects 3-3/8 inches on a 1-1/4 inch diameter backplate, a small round plate that leaves little to cover an old fastener pattern. The Deltana BBN2009 Single Robe Hook is a separate BBN Series design with its own mounting footprint. Swapping one for the other on an existing door means checking that the replacement backplate covers the existing holes; on a fleet of doors already carrying the 7010, staying in the 7010 Series keeps the hole pattern consistent.

All three are Deltana double robe hooks and any of them will take two garments on one mounting point. They differ by series: the 55D2010 is the 55D Series and is solid brass, the 88DRH is the 88 Series and is also solid brass, and the BBS2010 is the BBS Series. Each series carries its own body shape and backplate, so for a distributor pulling a specific part the series designation is what separates them rather than the function.
