Cal-Royal PUL208-US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the hole spacing for the Cal-Royal PUL208 pull, and can it replace an existing 8 inch pull?
The PUL208 mounts on an 8 inch center-to-center pattern. If the two existing thru-bolt holes in your door are 8 inches apart, it drops onto the same prep. Any other spacing means a new prep or a plugged and re-drilled door.
2) Is the Cal-Royal PUL208 a single pull or a back-to-back set?
The PUL208 is a single solid bar pull, individually packed. If you need a grip on both faces of the door, order two and mount them back to back through the same thru-bolt holes, or go with a factory back-to-back set like the Deltana SSPOBB24 or the Sure-Loc double-sided knurled long pull.
3) What is a comparable straight door pull to the Cal-Royal PUL208 if I need a round bar instead of a flat bar?
The Cal-Royal PUL208 uses a solid 3/8" x 1-1/4" flat bar with a 2" projection and an 8" center-to-center span. If a round bar profile suits the door better, the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull with a 1" round bar and through bolt mounting, and the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight pull with a 3/4" round bar and 1-1/2" clearance. The ABH AB7200 is another straight option, a solid stainless steel flat end pull at 7/8" diameter with through-bolt mounting. All three keep the straight, thru-bolted format of the PUL208 while changing the grip section.
4) The PUL208 is a straight pull. What should I use if the opening needs an offset pull?
The Cal-Royal PUL208 is a straight solid bar pull with a 2" projection. For an offset geometry, the ABH AB3310 is an offset flat end door pull for surface mount, the ABH AB3330 is an offset round end pull with custom length options, and the Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid pull with a 1" diameter and heavy duty mounting. The Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset pull with heavy duty mounting hardware and is described as ADA compliant, which matters if the offset is being chosen for accessible-route reasons rather than appearance.
5) The PUL208 thru-bolts through the door. What if I cannot drill through the leaf?
The Cal-Royal PUL208 uses a Type 1 thru-bolt mount, which requires holes through the 1 3/4" door. Where thru-bolting is not acceptable, the ABH AB3310 offset flat end pull is a surface mount design, and the Sure-Loc PL-1RD round long door pull is offered with concealed or thru-bolt mounting so the concealed option can be specified instead.
6) Is there enough hand clearance on the Cal-Royal PUL208 for gloved use?
The bar stands off the door face 2 inches, which leaves room to wrap a gloved hand around the 3/8 by 1-1/4 inch solid bar. That flat bar profile gives a broader gripping surface than a round rod pull like the Ives 8102HD 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance.
7) What finishes does the Cal-Royal PUL208 pull handle come in?
Four: US3 polished brass, US10B antique bronze oiled, US15 satin nickel, and US28 satin aluminum clear anodized. US28 is the usual match for aluminum storefront and anodized frames; US3 and US10B suit brass and bronze hardware programs already in the building.
8) Is a straight bar pull or an offset pull better for a high-traffic entry door?
A straight bar like the PUL208 sits parallel to the door edge and is the simplest to pull straight back, which is why it is common on offices, schools, healthcare and retail openings. An offset pull angles the grip away from the face and gives more knuckle room where a door is heavy or the pull sits close to a frame or mullion; the ABH AB3310 flat end offset and the Ives 8169 C style offset cover that case. Offset also tends to be the choice where an ADA compliant grip is specified, as with the Ives 8145EZ series.
9) Can I pair the Cal-Royal PUL208 with a push plate on the opposite side?
Yes, that is the standard push/pull setup for a non-latching commercial door: the PUL208 on the pull side, a plate on the push side. Trimco's 1001-1 heavy duty push plate at 3 by 12 inches, the 1041 half-round at 8 by 16, or the 1070 Series push/pull plates at 3-1/2 by 15 all work as the push half. Just confirm the finish designation matches across both pieces.
10) I need a longer pull than the PUL208's 8" center-to-center. What are the options?
The Cal-Royal PUL208 is an 8" center-to-center pull. For longer grips, the Deltana SSP1210 is a 12" contemporary pull for a single side, and the Deltana SSPOBB24 and SSPORBB24 are 24" back-to-back sets in modern offset and round offset styles respectively. The ABH AB3330 offset round end pull is offered with custom length options if a specific length is being matched to a stile or a glass door.
11) Will a Trimco 1001 push plate work in place of the Cal-Royal PUL208?
No, those do two different jobs. The Cal-Royal PUL208 is a graspable solid bar pull with a 2" projection for the pull side of the opening. The Trimco 1001-1 is a heavy duty push plate measuring 3" x 12", a flat plate for the push side with nothing to grip. The Trimco 1041 is likewise a half-round push plate at 8" x 16". If the intent is to hardware both faces of the door, the Trimco 1070 series is supplied as classic push/pull plates at 3-1/2" x 15", which pairs the two functions in one series.
12) I want a pull with a better grip in a wet or gloved-hand application than the PUL208's smooth bar.
The Cal-Royal PUL208 is a smooth solid bar, 3/8" x 1-1/4", in stainless steel, brass, or aluminum. For added grip texture, the Sure-Loc PL-1KN is a knurled long door pull in a single-sided version with thru-bolt mounting, and the PL-2KN is the same knurled pull in a double-sided version. For a restroom door specifically, the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is a heavy duty pull built for that application.
13) Is the Cal-Royal PUL208 pull rated for commercial use or is it residential hardware?
It is commercial-duty hardware, built solid in stainless steel, brass and aluminum for high-traffic openings. For a residential or decorative entry where the look drives the choice, the Emtek 8 inch pulls (Baden, Brisbane, Arts and Crafts, cast bronze Art Nouveau) are the design-led alternatives at the same 8 inch size.
14) How do I keep the finish on a Cal-Royal pull handle looking right in a high-touch location?
Cal-Royal publishes a finish maintenance and care guide covering the architectural finishes, which is worth following on US3 polished brass in particular since hand oils show fastest on bright plated finishes. Satin finishes like US15 and the US28 clear anodized aluminum hide handling marks better on a heavily used opening.
