My wife picked this out, and we both love it. We didn't have to butcher a chunk of door out like other pulls. The pulling mechanism is flush with the exposed door edge, yet pops out with the touch of a finger exposing the actual pulling hook. When you get the door into its new position, the pull goes back into place with a simple touch. We bought this model and the locking model for a bathroom door. Somebody thought this out. I have installed pocket doors for almost 40-years, and this is the best pull I have installed. The pull hook could use some smoother edges, but i still give it a 5-star
