Cal-Royal DIFP218-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole do I need to bore for the Cal-Royal DIFP218 drive-in finger pull?
The DIFP218 drives into a 2-1/8 inch diameter bore. The flange sits proud of that at 2-1/2 inches overall diameter, so it covers the edge of the hole, and the cup is 3/8 inch deep. Bore a 2-1/8 inch hole to the depth your door skin allows and drive the pull in; no nails or screws are used.
2) Does the Cal-Royal DIFP218 come with fasteners?
No fasteners, and none are needed. The DIFP218 is the drive-in version without nails, so it press-fits into the bored hole and holds on friction. Each pull ships individually poly-bagged. If your spec calls for a nailed-in pull, this is not that part.
3) Does this finger pull meet ANSI/BHMA requirements for a commercial spec job?
The DIFP218 conforms to ANSI/BHMA A156.16 B22201 and A156.14 D2781, and it is classified as commercial hardware. Those are the auxiliary hardware and sliding/folding door hardware standards, so it will satisfy a drawing that calls out a BHMA-compliant flush finger pull.
4) Will a drive-in finger pull work on a thin hollow-core bypass door?
Depth is the thing to check. The DIFP218 cup is only 3/8 inch deep, so it needs very little material behind it, which is why this style suits sliding and bypass panels where a projecting pull would hit the jamb or the adjacent panel. What it does need is enough solid stile at the bore location to hold a 2-1/8 inch drive-in fit. On a hollow-core panel, place it over the stile, not the hollow field.
5) What finishes does the Cal-Royal DIFP218 finger pull come in, and can I match the other hardware on my doors?
Eight finishes: US1 flat black, US3 bright brass, US5 antique brass, US10B antique bronze oiled, US15 satin nickel, US15A satin nickel oxidized, US26 polished chrome, and US26D satin chrome. Those are standard US finish codes, so you can order to match levers, hinges and pulls already on the openings by code rather than by eye.
6) Is a recessed finger pull the right choice, or should I use a surface-mounted pull?
Use a flush pull like the DIFP218 where anything projecting would foul the operation: bypass closet panels, pocket doors, and sliding panels that pass each other or disappear into a wall. It sits 3/8 inch into the door face and gives you a grip point rather than a handle. If the door swings, or users need a full-hand grip, a surface pull or push/pull plate is the better call.
7) Can I standardize the same drive-in pull across offices, classrooms and patient-room closets?
Yes. The DIFP218 is a single 2-1/8 inch bore size in one 3/8 inch depth, so every opening gets the same prep regardless of building type, and you carry one part number with one finish code. That works across office, education, healthcare, retail, warehouse, multi-tenant residential and municipal properties.
8) How do I keep the finish on a satin nickel or oiled bronze finger pull from degrading?
Cal-Royal publishes a finish maintenance and care document that covers cleaning and upkeep for its plated and oiled finishes, including the US15A satin nickel oxidized and US10B antique bronze oiled options offered on the DIFP218. Living finishes like US10B are expected to change with handling, so clean with mild methods rather than abrasives or solvents.
