Don-Jo 36-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo 36 pull line up with my existing mounting holes?
The Don-Jo 36 is drilled 5-1/2 inches center to center, so it drops onto an opening already prepped at that spacing. Overall length is 7-1/2 inches, which means roughly an inch of casting beyond each fastener, so it will cover slightly larger old holes but not a wider CTC prep. If the existing pull measures anything other than 5-1/2 inches between the post centers, you are patching and re-drilling.
2) What is a heavy duty alternative to the Don-Jo 36 door pull for a high traffic entrance?
The Don-Jo 36 is a cast commercial pull with 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing, 7-1/2 inch overall length, 1-7/8 inch projection and 1-1/2 inch clearance. If the opening calls for a heavy duty bar style pull instead of a cast grip, the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight door pull built on a 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance, and the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight pull on a 1 inch round bar with through bolt mounting. Both give you a straight bar grip rather than the Don-Jo 36 cast profile.
3) What should I use instead of a Don-Jo 36 pull if the door needs an ADA compliant offset pull?
The Don-Jo 36 is a cast pull with a 1-7/8 inch projection and 1-1/2 inch clearance, ANSI J401 compliant. Where the specification calls out an offset ADA pull, the Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull with heavy duty mounting hardware described as ADA compliant in the EZ series. The Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid pull at 1 inch diameter with heavy duty mounting if you want an offset without the 45 degree bend.
4) I need a longer pull than the Don-Jo 36 for a glass or full height entrance door. What are the options?
The Don-Jo 36 measures 7-1/2 inches overall with 5-1/2 inch centers, which is a hand grip pull rather than a full height pull. For longer runs, the Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull for single side mounting, and the Deltana SSPOBB24 and SSPORBB24 are 24 inch back-to-back offset pulls in modern flat and round profiles respectively. The ABH AB3330 series offset round end pull is offered with custom length options if you need a length between those.
5) Can I use a Cal-Royal PUL-175 or a Trimco push plate in place of a Don-Jo 36 door pull?
No, those are different parts. The Don-Jo 36 is a cast grip pull with 5-1/2 inch centers and a 1-7/8 inch projection. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is a night latch cylinder pull, 3-1/2 inches high in stainless steel, which mounts around a rim cylinder rather than serving as a general purpose grip. The Trimco 1001-1 is a 3 by 12 inch heavy duty push plate and the Trimco 1041 is an 8 by 16 inch half-round push plate, both flat plates for the push side. The Trimco 1070 series combines classic push and pull plates at 3-1/2 by 15 inches if you want plate style hardware on both faces.
6) Is a 1-1/2 inch clearance door pull enough for gloved hands in a warehouse or kitchen?
Grip clearance on the 36 is 1-1/2 inches with a 1-7/8 inch projection off the door face, which is the normal commercial hand clearance and works with a gloved hand. If you want more knuckle room on a heavy or frequently pulled door, the Ives 8102HD heavy duty straight pull also carries 1-1/2 inch clearance but on a 3/4 inch round bar, and the Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset pull if you want the hand to come off the door at an angle.
7) What finishes does the Don-Jo 36 door pull come in, and which matches my existing hardware?
Six finishes: 605 polished brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 polished chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 satin aluminum, and 630 satin stainless. For matching a fleet of doors, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial standard and pairs with most exit devices and push plates; 628 satin aluminum matches aluminum storefront and anodized frames; 613 is the dark bronze look for hospitality and multi-family.
8) Is the Don-Jo 36 a single-side pull or a back-to-back set?
The 36 is one cast pull, sized 7-1/2 inches overall on 5-1/2 inch centers. If you need a grip on both faces of the door, order two and mount them back to back, or look at a set that ships as a pair such as the Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull back-to-back set or the Sure-Loc PL-2KN knurled long pull, double-sided.
9) Will a 7-1/2 inch cast pull fit the narrow stile of an aluminum storefront door?
Mounting is vertical on a 5-1/2 inch center to center prep, so what matters on a narrow stile is width, not the 7-1/2 inch length, and the 36 sits on a single line of fasteners. On glass front doors the more common issue is that a narrow stile has limited room for a through-bolt and the pull is often paired with a push bar on the opposite face. If you want a longer vertical grip on a storefront leaf, the Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary single-side pull.
10) Should I use a door pull like the Don-Jo 36 or a push plate on the swing side?
Standard practice on a single-acting commercial door is a pull on the pull side and a plate on the push side, so the door face takes the hand traffic instead of the finish. The 36 covers the pull side with a 1-1/2 inch grip clearance. For the push face, ZenSupply carries the Trimco 1001-1 heavy duty push plate at 3 by 12 inches and the Trimco 1070 Series classic push/pull plates at 3-1/2 by 15 inches if you want the pull mounted on a plate rather than direct to the door.
11) I need a restroom door pull that lets people exit without touching the handle with a bare hand. Is this the right pull?
The Don-Jo 36 is a conventional cast grip pull, not a foot or forearm operated device. For a restroom exit where hand contact is the concern, the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is the purpose-built heavy duty option. Use the 36 where a standard commercial grip on 5-1/2 inch centers is what the schedule calls for.
12) Is there a stainless steel pull comparable to the Don-Jo 36 for a healthcare or food service door?
The Don-Jo 36 is offered in 630 satin stainless steel among its finishes, which covers most institutional schemes. If you want a pull that is solid stainless through the body rather than a cast pull in a stainless finish, the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle at 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting. For restroom doors specifically, the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is a heavy duty option in that same institutional category.
13) What is the difference between the Don-Jo 36 and the ABH AB3300 and AB3310 pulls?
The Don-Jo 36 is a cast pull with a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center, 7-1/2 inch overall length and a 1-7/8 inch projection, ANSI J401 compliant and offered in 605, 613, 625, 626, 628 and 630. The ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end commercial pull handle on a 1.00 inch diameter bar, and the ABH AB3310 is the offset flat end version of that same flat end family. So the choice is between a cast pull body and a bar style pull with flat ends, straight or offset.
14) Is the Don-Jo 36 heavy enough for a school or hospital corridor door?
It is a solid cast pull rated for commercial use, and Don-Jo lists educational, healthcare, government and retail openings among its applications. Cast construction gives it more mass than a formed tube pull. On abusive openings where the pull takes a hard daily beating, a heavy duty through-bolted bar such as the Ives 8103HD, 1 inch round with through bolt mounting, is the alternative to look at.
