Deltana 2-1/8" Round Flush Pull, Oil Rubbed Bronze

This solid brass flush pull gives contractors precise control over door hardware installations with standardized dimensions and durable construction. Worth it for sliding doors, pocket doors, and cabinet applications where you need a recessed pull that won’t snag clothing or interfere with tight clearances. The hardware handles residential and light commercial use on everything from kitchen cabinetry to closet doors.

Skip it if you’re looking for surface-mount hardware. This pull requires drilling a 2-1/8 inch mortise 3/8 inch deep — not a retrofit option for existing doors without proper tools.

Installation Specs That Matter

The FP221RU10B demands a precise 2-1/8 inch (54mm) cutout diameter with 3/8 inch (10mm) recess depth. The trim rises just 1/8 inch (0.13 inch) from the surface while the outer diameter spans 2-1/2 inches (64mm). Those measurements aren’t suggestions — they’re requirements for proper fit.

Specification	Value
Cutout Diameter	2-1/8 inches (54 mm)
Recess Depth	3/8 inch (10 mm)
Overall Diameter	2-1/2 inches (64 mm)
Projection from Surface	0.13 inch (3 mm)
Material	Solid Brass
Shape	Round

Installation requires a drill with either a 2-1/8 inch hole saw or spade bit. The shallow 3/8 inch depth makes this hardware compatible with thinner door materials than deeper-recessed alternatives. Standard 1-3/8 inch interior doors and 3/4 inch+ cabinet panels both work.

Build Quality and Warranty Coverage

Solid brass construction beats the zinc alloy pulls that dominate the budget market. The oil rubbed bronze finish resists tarnishing — critical for hardware that gets handled daily. Brass provides heft and durability that plastic or pot metal can’t match.

Deltana backs this hardware with a 3-year mechanical warranty and 1-year finish warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal use. That’s standard for quality door hardware, though the finish warranty could be longer given the premium materials.

California Proposition 65 warnings apply due to brass lead content — standard disclosure for solid brass hardware industry-wide.

Where It Works (And Where It Doesn’t)

This flush pull targets sliding doors, pocket doors, and closet door applications. Kitchen and bathroom cabinetry also benefit from the low-profile design. The minimal projection keeps the hardware from catching on clothing or creating clearance issues in tight spaces.

Deltana positioned this model for lighter cabinet and sliding door duty compared to their FP178 Heavy Duty version. Don’t spec this for exterior doors or high-abuse commercial environments. Light commercial and interior residential use defines the appropriate application range.

Wood and MDF doors handle the installation best. Metal doors require different mounting considerations not addressed in the standard installation guidance.
