Don-Jo 42-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the center-to-center spacing on the Don-Jo 42 door pull, and will it land on existing pull holes?
The Don-Jo 42 is a 5 inch center-to-center pull. If the door already has a pull prepped on 5 inch centers, the 42 drops onto those holes with no new drilling. Anything prepped at 8 inch or 12 inch centers, which is common on full-length ladder style pulls, will not line up and needs a different pull or a new prep.
2) Will the Don-Jo 42 work as a restroom or cylinder pull?
No. The 42 is a plain grip pull with no cylinder prep and no foot or elbow feature. For a night latch cylinder pull, look at the Cal-Royal PUL-175 at 3-1/2 inches high in stainless; for a restroom door pull meant to be opened without a bare hand, the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is the right part.
3) What is a straight equivalent to the Don-Jo 42 cast door pull from another manufacturer?
The Ives 8103HD is the closest peer in the same role: a heavy duty straight door pull built on 1 inch round bar with through bolt mounting. Both are commercial door pulls meant for the same kind of opening, with the Don-Jo 42 differing in that it is a cast pull with a 5 inch center-to-center spacing, 8-1/8 inch overall length, and 2-1/2 inch projection. If you want a lighter bar section in the same straight form, the Ives 8102HD uses 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance against the 2-1/8 inch clearance on the Don-Jo 42.
4) The Don-Jo 42 has only a 5 inch center-to-center grip. What should I use on a full-height glass or storefront door instead?
For a long grip surface, step up to a dedicated long pull. The Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull mounted on a single side, and the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset pull for doors that need a matching grip on both faces. The round-profile equivalent at that length is the Deltana SSPORBB24, a 24 inch back-to-back round offset pull. The Don-Jo 42 is a short 8-1/8 inch overall cast pull, which suits a hand-height pull point rather than a full-height entrance grip.
5) I need an ADA compliant pull on a door where the Don-Jo 42 will not work. What is the alternative?
The Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull from the EZ series that is described as ADA compliant and ships with heavy duty mounting hardware. The offset geometry puts the grip away from the door face at an angle rather than the straight projection of the Don-Jo 42, which carries a 2-1/2 inch projection and 2-1/8 inch clearance. For a C-style offset in solid 1 inch diameter stock, the Ives 8169 covers the same offset approach with heavy duty mounting.
6) How much hand clearance does the Don-Jo 42 pull give behind the grip?
Clearance behind the grip is 2-1/8 inches, with a 2-1/2 inch projection off the face of the door. That is enough room for a gloved hand, which matters on shop, warehouse and back-of-house doors where people are wearing work gloves all day. It also means the pull stands 2-1/2 inches proud, so check it clears anything mounted alongside the door.
7) How long is the Don-Jo 42 pull overall?
Overall length is 8-1/8 inches on 5 inch centers, so the body extends roughly an inch and a half past each mounting point. On a narrow stile door, measure the flat face you have before ordering: an 8-1/8 inch pull needs that much uninterrupted stile clear of the glass stop.
8) What finish does the Don-Jo 42 cast pull come in?
630 satin stainless is the only finish offered on the 42. That is the standard commercial brushed stainless number, so it matches 630 push plates, kick plates and lever trim already on a building's openings without a finish mismatch.
9) Is the Don-Jo 42 heavy enough for a high traffic commercial door?
Cast construction and a commercial rating, meeting ANSI J401. Don-Jo lists it for offices, schools, healthcare, retail, industrial and warehouse, government and multi-tenant residential openings. It is a solid cast body rather than a formed or tube pull, so the grip does not flex under a hard pull.
10) Should I use a short 8 inch pull like the Don-Jo 42 or a full length offset pull?
A short pull like the 42, at 8-1/8 inches overall, suits a standard swing door where one hand grabs at a fixed height. If you want the grip to work at multiple heights, or for a tall glass door, a longer offset pull such as the Deltana SSPOBB24 24 inch back-to-back offset or the Ives 8145 45 degree offset is the better shape. Choose the 42 when you are replacing a conventional grip pull and want to keep the 5 inch prep.
11) What else could I put on the door instead of a Don-Jo 42 pull?
For a straight round-bar grip in the same commercial class, the Ives 8102HD uses a 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance and the Ives 8103HD is a 1 inch round with through-bolt mounting. The ABH AB3300 is a 1 inch diameter straight flat end pull, the AB3310 the offset version of it. The Don-Jo 42 differs from all of these in being a cast body rather than a bar pull, with a deeper 2-1/8 inch clearance than the 8102HD's 1-1/2 inch.
12) Does the Don-Jo 42 door pull have a handing?
No handing on the 42. It is a symmetrical grip pull on 5 inch centers, so the same part works on a left or right hand door and on either face. That is different from decorative pulls that are ordered handed, such as the Emtek Art Nouveau 8 inch pull, which is selected by hand.
13) Is a push plate a substitute for the Don-Jo 42 door pull?
No. A push plate protects the door face on the push side and gives nothing to grip; a pull is what you grab on the pull side. The Trimco 1001-1 is a heavy duty push plate in 3 inch by 12 inch, and the Trimco 1041 is a half-round heavy duty push plate in 8 inch by 16 inch. If you want both functions on one opening, the Trimco 1070 series classic push/pull plates are supplied as combined push and pull plates in 3-1/2 inch by 15 inch. The Don-Jo 42 is the graspable pull itself, 8-1/8 inches overall with 2-1/2 inch projection off the door.
14) Will a Cal-Royal PUL-175 do the same job as a Don-Jo 42?
They are different parts despite both being called pulls. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is a night latch cylinder pull, 3-1/2 inches in height, in stainless steel construction; it mounts at a rim cylinder to pull the door and is not a general-purpose grip. The Don-Jo 42 is a cast door pull with 5 inch center-to-center mounting, 8-1/8 inch overall length, and 2-1/8 inch hand clearance, mounted to a standard commercial pull prep. Ordering the PUL-175 for a plain pull prep leaves you with the wrong hole pattern and no cylinder to mount to.
15) What is the difference between the Don-Jo 42 and the ABH AB3300 or AB3310 pulls?
The ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end commercial pull handle on 1.00 inch diameter stock, and the AB3310 is the offset flat end version in the same commercial-grade surface mount family. The AB3330 is an offset round end pull offered with custom length options, which is the one to look at when the opening needs a grip length other than a stock size. The Don-Jo 42 is a cast pull fixed at 5 inch center-to-center and 8-1/8 inch overall, so it is a set size rather than a made-to-length handle.
16) For a restroom door, is the Don-Jo 42 the right pull or is there a better-suited option?
The Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is purpose-built for that opening and is a heavy duty pull, which is worth specifying where the pull doubles as the way a user opens the door without gripping a handle. The Don-Jo 42 is a general commercial cast pull at 5 inch center-to-center with 2-1/8 inch clearance, which accommodates gloved hands and works on office, retail, and institutional doors where a standard grip is what the drawing calls for.
17) Can I use a Don-Jo 42 where the drawing calls for a back-to-back pull set?
No. A back-to-back set puts a pull on each face with matched through-mounting between them; the Deltana OHP620 is an off-set handle pull supplied as a back-to-back set for doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch thick, and the Deltana SSPOBB24 is the 24 inch back-to-back version. The Don-Jo 42 is a single cast pull at 5 inch center-to-center, so if both faces need a grip you are specifying a pair-and-mounting arrangement, not one 42.
18) Which stainless pull holds up best on a high-traffic door if I am not using the Don-Jo 42?
The ABH AB7200 is solid stainless steel with a 7/8 inch diameter flat end grip and through-bolt mounting, and through-bolting is what carries the load on a door that gets pulled hard all day. The Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight pull in 1 inch round, also through bolt mounted. The Don-Jo 42 answers the same durability question with solid cast construction and a 630 satin stainless finish, rated for commercial use.
19) Can I standardize a whole building on the Don-Jo 42 pull?
It is built for that. One finish, 630 satin stainless, and one size, 5 inch centers at 8-1/8 inches overall, means every opening you spec takes the same part number and the same door prep. That is what a facility wants for stocking spares: one pull on the shelf covers every door you have converted.
20) Does the Don-Jo 42 need handing like some decorative pulls do?
No. The Don-Jo 42 is ordered by its dimensions and finish - 5 inch center-to-center, 8-1/8 inch overall, 2-1/2 inch projection, 630 satin stainless - with no left or right hand to select. By contrast the Emtek Lost Wax Cast Bronze Art Nouveau 8 inch door pull is ordered by selecting handing, so on a fleet of doors swinging both ways that peer becomes two line items where the 42 stays one.
