Stainless Steel Door Pull Handles and Glass Door Pulls: Types, Sizes and Finishes – A Buyer's Guide from the Factory

What Is a Door Pull Handle?

A pull handle has no moving parts. It is a grip, round or flat, held off the door face by two or more posts (standoffs), so a hand can wrap around it. It is used on doors that are pushed and pulled rather than latched: glass entrance doors, shop and office doors, shower doors, sliding doors and partitions. Where the door must also lock, the handle is combined with a separate lock or comes as a pull handle with lock.

Buyers also call them door pulls, pull bars or push-pull handles; a long two-post pull is a ladder pull and a pull with offset posts is an H pull or offset pull. In Mexico they are jaladeras (jaladeras de acero inoxidable), in other Spanish-speaking markets tiradores or manijas para puerta de vidrio, and in Brazil puxadores (puxador de inox, puxador para porta de vidro).

Step 1 · Handle type

Types of Stainless Steel Door Pull Handles

Quick answer: choose a ladder or H pull for most glass and entrance doors, a long round pull (1200–1850 mm) for tall commercial entrances, an offset or arc pull where knuckles need more clearance, a pull handle with lock where the door must lock without a separate lock body, and a C-shaped short pull for shower doors. Model numbers refer to our 2025 catalog.

Step 2 · Size

Door Pull Handle Sizes: Length, Center-to-Center and Tube

Quick answer: a pull handle is ordered by three numbers: overall length (A), center-to-center of the fixing posts (B), which sets the hole positions in the door, and tube size (D). For a standard 2.1 m glass or entrance door choose 450–800 mm; for 2.4–3 m commercial entrances choose 1200–1850 mm; for shower doors choose 250–450 mm.

How to measure a door pull handle A ladder pull handle seen from the side of the door, with overall length A along the grip, center-to-center B between the two fixing posts, tube diameter D, and projection P from the door face to the front of the grip. A second pull is shown on the other side of the glass, fixed back to back with a through-bolt. Glass 8–12 mm A length B center to center D P
A = overall length · B = center-to-center (hole spacing) · D = tube · P = projection. Back-to-back pulls share one through-bolt per post. Not to scale.

 Typical HIPAD combinations from the catalog; B varies by model (for example HI-1061: 600 / 568 mm). Square and flat tubes: 10 × 30, 10 × 40, 15 × 30, 20 × 40, 25 × 38 and 25 × 45 mm. Any length can be made to order.

How to choose the length

  • Proportion: on a standard 2.1 m door, a pull of about a quarter to a third of the door height (450–800 mm) looks right and suits most hands.
  • Grip height: fit the pull so the center of the grip is roughly 1.0–1.1 m above the floor, or follow your local accessibility code.
  • Glass edge distance: the fixing holes must keep the distance from the glass edge that your tempering supplier requires; check B against the door width and patch fittings.
  • Locks: leave room for a floor lock, center lock or the lock of a pull handle with lock.
Step 3 · Material and finish

Installation and Common Problems

  1. Drill glass holes at center-to-center B before tempering; on wood or metal doors mark B from the handle.
  2. Fit the sleeves or washers that come with the handle so metal never touches glass.
  3. Pass the through-bolt, fit the second pull and tighten until firm. Do not over-tighten on glass.

Door Pull Handle FAQ

What size pull handle should I use on a glass door?

For a standard 2.1 m glass door, 450–800 mm pulls with Φ32–38 mm tubes are most common; tall commercial entrances use 1200–1850 mm pulls; shower doors use 250–450 mm. Order by center-to-center B so the glass holes match.

How do you measure a door pull handle?

Measure the overall length A, the center-to-center B between the fixing posts, the tube diameter or section D and the projection from the door face. B is the number that must match the holes in the door.

Is 304 or 201 stainless steel better for door handles?

SUS304 resists corrosion better because it contains more nickel, so use it for entrances, exterior doors, bathrooms and coastal areas. SUS201 costs less and suits dry interior doors. HIPAD makes handles in both grades.

Can pull handles be fitted to 8 mm glass?

Yes. HIPAD glass door pulls fit 8–12 mm tempered glass. The holes are drilled before tempering, and sleeves and washers keep the metal off the glass.

What is a back-to-back pull handle?

It is a pair of pulls, one on each side of the door, joined by through-bolts through the same holes, so the door can be pulled from both sides. It is the standard handle for glass doors.

Do you make pull handles with locks?

Yes. HI-1001 is a 1500 mm Φ35 mm pull with lock and HI-1002 is an 1850 mm square-tube pull with lock, for glass and aluminum entrance doors.

What finishes are available?

Standard finishes are mirror polished, satin, black, black paint and black titanium. Gold, rose gold, wood-grain and two-tone versions are available on request.

Can you make handles to our design with our logo?

Yes. We make pulls to your length, center-to-center, tube shape and finish, with laser logo and private-label packing, even for small quantities. Samples of catalog models take 3–7 days.

HIPAD is a manufacturer founded in 2000 in Qingdao, China, producing door, window and bathroom hardware under one quality system. HIPAD is ISO 9001 certified. Qingdao Hipad International Trade Co., Ltd. handles export.
