ABH LLP Locking Ladder Pull with Keyed Security

The ABH LLP Locking Ladder Pull combines clean architectural design with keyed security for commercial door openings. A concealed locking bolt system can be configured to lock down into the floor, lock up into the header, or both directions simultaneously — eliminating the need for bulky patch fittings or surface-mounted rails while keeping the door face clean. Available in half-height and full-height models across nine BHMA finishes.

Key Features

  • Multiple Locking Configurations: Bolt Down, Bolt Up, or Bolt Up and Bolt Down — select the configuration that matches your security requirement.
  • Concealed Bolt System: 2" bolt location from door face to centerline; 13/16" bolt travel for positive engagement without exposed hardware.
  • Dual-Sided Operation: Key cylinder on the exterior; thumbturn or turn piece on the interior for convenient access control.
  • Cylinder Options: Available less cylinder, with ABH-supplied Best rim cylinder, or ABH-supplied Best SFIC housing — specify at time of order.
  • Stainless Steel Base Construction: All BHMA standard finishes available for durability and corrosion resistance in high-traffic environments.
  • Simplified Door Prep: Half-height models require only 2 holes; full-height models require 3 holes — faster installation, less door damage.

Door Compatibility

  • Glass Doors: 3/8" to 1" thickness
  • Aluminum Doors: 1-3/4" to 2-1/2" thickness
  • Wood or Hollow Metal Doors: 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" thickness

ABH HHBU-US32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Should I order bolt down, bolt up, or both on an ABH LLP ladder pull?
It depends on what you can prep. Bolt down throws into the floor and is the usual choice where there is a threshold or slab that can take a floor strike. Bolt up throws into the header, which is the answer when a floor strike is not practical (finished stone, trench drains, heavy foot traffic). Bolt up and bolt down locks both ends at once for the most resistance to prying at a glass door, and that dual configuration is offered on full height only. Half height comes in bolt down or bolt up.
2) How far does the bolt on the ABH LLP travel, and where does the strike go?
Bolt travel is 13/16 inch, and the bolt centerline sits 2 inches in from the door face. Use that 2 inch dimension to lay out the floor or header strike before the door goes in, because the pull is a concealed bolt system with nothing on the door face to measure from after the fact.
3) Does the ABH LLP come with a cylinder, or do I key it myself?
Three ways to order it. ABLC is less cylinder and is the standard, which is what a locksmith wants when keying the opening into an existing system. ABRC ships with an ABH-supplied Best rim cylinder. ABSC ships with an ABH-supplied Best SFIC housing, for facilities running small format interchangeable cores. Pick the cylinder option at time of order, it is not field-swappable packaging.
4) What is the difference between the ABH LLP locking ladder pull and a standard Ives 8103HD straight pull?
The ABH LLP is a ladder pull with an integrated concealed locking bolt: a key cylinder on the exterior, a thumbturn on the interior, and a bolt that throws 13/16 inch either down into the floor, up into the header, or both directions depending on the model ordered. The Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull, 1 inch round, with through bolt mounting and no locking function at all. If the opening needs to be secured by the pull itself, the LLP is the one that does it; if a separate lock or exit device already secures the door and the pull is just a grab handle, the 8103HD covers that.
5) I need a non-locking ladder-style pull for the same glass entrance doors - what works alongside the ABH LLP?
For the inactive leaf or a door that does not need to be secured at the pull, the Sure-Loc PL-1RD round long door pull is a single-sided long pull offered with concealed or thru-bolt mounting, and the Sure-Loc PL-1SQ is the square-profile equivalent rated for 1/2 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick doors. The Sure-Loc PL-2KN is a double-sided knurled long pull if you want a matching handle on both faces. None of these carry a bolt or cylinder - the ABH LLP is the one that locks, so pair it on the active leaf and use the plain long pulls elsewhere.
6) The ABH LLP will not suit my door - it is a 1-3/8 inch residential-thickness door. What pull should I look at instead?
The ABH LLP is built for commercial leaves: glass at 3/8 inch to 1 inch, aluminum at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch, and wood or hollow metal at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. For a 1-3/8 inch door, the Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull is supplied as a back-to-back set for 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch thick doors, and the Sure-Loc PL-1SQ square long pull covers 1/2 inch through 2-1/4 inch. Neither of those locks, so a separate lockset would carry the security function.
7) Which pull do I use if the door has no floor or header to bolt into?
The ABH LLP depends on a strike point - its bolt travels 13/16 inch down into the floor, up into the header, or both, depending on which model is ordered. If neither condition exists, use a non-locking heavy duty pull and secure the door with a separate device: the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight pull with a 3/4 inch round bar and 1-1/2 inch clearance, and the Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid pull, 1 inch diameter, with heavy duty mounting.
8) Can the ABH LLP ladder pull be unlocked from inside without a key?
Yes. The key cylinder goes on the exterior and the interior side gets a thumbturn. You choose between the standard thumbturn and the ADA thumbturn at order, so specify ADA where the opening has to be operable without tight grasping or twisting of the wrist.
9) What is the difference between half height and full height on the LLP locking pull?
Height of the pull itself and how much prep it takes. Half height needs only 2 holes in the door, full height needs 3. Full height gives the taller grab surface a lobby entrance usually wants and is the only one offered with the bolt up and bolt down dual configuration. If you only need a single locking direction and want less drilling into glass, half height does the same job.
10) Can I get a matching pull on the inside of the door?
Yes, the LLP is offered back to back, selected as a yes or no option when you order. Back to back gives you a matching ladder pull on the opposite face rather than a plain trim plate, which is what most lobby and retail entrances want when both sides are visible.
11) Do I still need a patch fitting or a deadbolt if I use the ABH LLP?
No. The locking bolt is built into the pull and throws into the floor, header, or both, so the opening does not need a bulky patch fitting or a surface mounted rail to get a locking point. That is the whole reason to spec it over a plain pull plus separate lock hardware, and it keeps the door face clean.
12) What is the alternative if I just need a door pull and not a locking one?
Plenty, and they cost less prep. For a commercial entry, the Ives 8103HD straight pull, 1 inch round with through bolt mounting, or the Ives 8102HD with 3/4 inch round bar and 1-1/2 inch clearance are both heavy duty non-locking pulls. For an ADA offset, the Ives 8145EZ 45 degree offset pull is listed as ADA compliant. For a long architectural bar, Sure-Loc offers round, square, and knurled long pulls in single and double sided. Go to the ABH LLP only when you actually need the keyed bolt in the pull.
13) Will a back-to-back pull like the Deltana OHP620 work on my storefront door instead?
Not on a typical commercial storefront. The Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull back-to-back set is listed for 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 inch door thickness, which is thinner than the 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch aluminum range the ABH LLP covers. For a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door, the OHP620 is out of range; use the LLP or a heavy duty Ives pull instead.
14) Is the Cal-Royal PUL-175 night latch cylinder pull a substitute for the ABH LLP?
They solve different problems. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is a night latch cylinder pull, 3-1/2 inches tall, in stainless steel - it is a short pull with a cylinder hole that works with a rim night latch mounted on the door. The ABH LLP is a full-height or half-height ladder pull whose own concealed bolt throws 13/16 inch into the floor or header, so the security hardware is inside the pull rather than a separate device. Choose the PUL-175 when a rim night latch is already specified; choose the LLP when you want the pull itself to be the locking point and the door face kept clean.
15) For an ADA-compliant pull on a commercial opening, how does the ABH LLP compare to the Ives 8145EZHD?
The ABH LLP can be ordered with an ADA thumbturn in place of the standard thumbturn, which addresses the operable part on the locking side while keeping the ladder pull and concealed bolt. The Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull in the ADA compliant EZ series with heavy duty mounting hardware, and it is a pull only with no locking mechanism. If the door needs both an accessible turn piece and keyed security in one assembly, specify the LLP with the ADA thumbturn; if the door is secured elsewhere, the 8145EZHD is the straight offset pull option.
16) Can I order the ABH LLP back to back, or do I need a separate pull for the push side?
The ABH LLP has a back to back option that is specified yes or no at time of order, so a matching pull on the opposite face can come as part of the same assembly. If you would rather use a different profile on the push side, the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset pull set and the SSPORBB24 is the round offset version of the same 24 inch back-to-back set. Those are plain pulls without a cylinder, so the keyed side stays with the LLP.
17) For a restroom or back-of-house door in the same building, is the ABH LLP overkill?
Probably, if that door does not need keyed security. The ABH LLP is a commercial ladder pull whose value is the concealed bolt and cylinder, and it requires 2 holes in the door for half height models or 3 holes for full height. On a restroom door the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is a heavy duty purpose-built pull, and for push-side service doors the Trimco 1001-1 heavy duty push plate at 3 by 12 inches or the 1070 series push/pull plates at 3-1/2 by 15 inches handle the traffic without any door prep for a bolt.
18) Which finishes does the ABH locking ladder pull come in, and will it match the rest of my building's hardware?
Nine BHMA finishes: bright brass, bright bronze, bright stainless steel, oil rubbed bronze, painted black, painted white, satin brass, satin bronze, and satin stainless steel. The body is stainless steel base with BHMA finishes, so satin stainless is the straightforward match for a typical aluminum and glass storefront package, and painted black or white matches dark or white anodized framing.
19) Is the ABH LLP suitable for a high traffic school or hospital entrance?
It is built for commercial use, stainless steel base construction with BHMA finishes for durability and corrosion resistance in high traffic, and ABH lists educational and healthcare access points among its applications along with office, retail, multi-family and hospitality lobbies. For those facilities specify the ADA thumbturn on the interior and, if the site standardizes on interchangeable cores, the Best SFIC housing option.
20) Is the ABH LLP locking ladder pull Buy American Act qualified?
No. The LLP locking ladder pull is not BAA qualified, so it will not satisfy a federal project spec that requires Buy American compliance.
