Where can I find the door handles on this pocket door?

11 years ago

We are putting a pocket door in a new renovation of a bathroom and we are looking for this type of door hardware for it versus the traditional finger pull you typically see.

These are a typical "back-to-back" pair of handles. Baldwin makes several at under $100, and there are other brands at about $100-$150/pair. Search at the usual sites -- atgstores.com carries a Baldwin that is very similar to the image shown (Baldwin #2557.150), currently $47.51. You will need two -- the "indoor" one and the "outdoor" one together with the back-to-back hardware set (handle screws & allen set screw). You will usually have to talk with customer service to place the order since the combo isn't easily configured online. Also, MyKnobs.com has some ready-to-go sets at less than $150 for the complete pair. See their sub-category "Back to Back Door Pulls" in the Door Hardware section.

Did you find out how to get these handles and how to put them on?

When you use pulls on sliding doors you need to have a stop inside the pocket to prevent your fingers from hitting the jamb. The mounting is called "Back to Back" . One pull has regular threads (usually 1/4-20) and the other pull has just a hole that slides over a special mounting bolt and there is small allen screws at the bottom of the handle that you tighten to secure the handle.

If you can not find them, we can make them. How many do you need and what sizes would you like? If you need many, we would cast them but if you only need a few we would cut them out of soild stock.

All the ones I find on the internet are anywhere from $160-$500 a pair. I simply cannot afford that and all the ones I can afford are made for shower doors. Don't know what we will do. We want them for a pair of pocket doors we just installed. Thank you for your info. Could we install the shower door ones on our pocket doors?

We ad the same issue. Look at Amerock hardware and specifically their appliance handles. Might be anther route to go. Good luck.

Marilyn, I can make 4 of those pulls 6" or 8" long with two posts and a top in oil rubbed bronze or polished brass for 600.00 for all four. Add 200.00 if you want nickel or chrome. I can make a fast drawing to show you what they will look like if this fits your budget. I would be fabricating them in solid architecural bronze bar stock.
