Emtek Wilshire 8" Door Pull

Three mounting styles, and they decide what the door face looks like. Standard is thru-bolt with decorative caps, so a finished cap shows on the back side of the door. BTB (back-to-back) is for a pull mounted on both faces, the two bolt through to each other. CS is concealed surface, which hides the fasteners rather than showing a cap. All three are available in every one of the ten finishes.

8 inches center to center. That is the number to check against an existing pull before you order, because if the holes already drilled in the door are on any other spacing you will be patching and re-boring. The pull itself is 8 inches high with a 1-1/4 inch width and a 2 inch projection off the door face.

Yes, give the door thickness on the order. The Wilshire mounts thru-bolt, so the fasteners have to span the door, and there is a door thickness field on the order for exactly that. Worth doing on any thru-bolt or back-to-back pull, and it matters most on a thick entry slab or a glass-panel door where the standard hardware length may not reach.

Ordering depends on the mounting you choose. The standard thru-bolt with decorative caps configuration is a single-side pull, with a finished cap on the reverse. BTB is the back-to-back configuration for a pull on both faces. If you want a pull on each side of the door, order BTB rather than two standard units, since the standard version's hardware is set up for a cap on the back, not a second pull.

The Wilshire is a residential-duty brass pull in the American Classic style, made for house entries, interior doors, and appliance panels. For a storefront, school, or any opening taking constant traffic, go to a heavy duty commercial pull instead: the Ives 8103HD is a 1 inch round straight pull with through-bolt mounting, and the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless 7/8 inch flat end pull, also through-bolted.

The Wilshire 8 inch pull is a brass, thru-bolt mounted pull with an 8 inch center-to-center spacing, and Emtek rates it for residential use. For a high traffic commercial opening, the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull in 1 inch round bar with through bolt mounting, and the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight pull in 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance. Both keep the same through-bolt attachment method as the Wilshire, so the door prep concept carries over, while the Ives pulls are built to a heavy duty level.

The Wilshire is an 8 inch brass pull in the American Classic style and Emtek lists it as residential. When the opening is being detailed for ADA, the Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull from the EZ series described as ADA compliant, supplied with heavy duty mounting hardware. The offset geometry gives the hand clearance an ADA pull is detailed around, where the Wilshire is a straight pull with a 2 inch projection.

The Wilshire 8 inch pull is offered in a back-to-back mounting configuration under the BTB prefix, for example BTB86078US15 in Satin Nickel, so it can be set up as a two-sided pull. If you want a longer back-to-back grab, the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset door pull and the Deltana SSPORBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back round offset pull. The Deltana OHP620 is also supplied as a back-to-back off-set handle pull set for doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch thick.

No. The Wilshire is a plain grab pull, brass, with an 8 inch center-to-center and no electronic or cylinder function. A night latch application needs a pull that carries the cylinder, such as the Cal-Royal PUL-175 night latch cylinder pull, which is 3-1/2 inches high in stainless steel construction. That pull is prepped to accept the cylinder on the exterior face, which the Wilshire is not.

The Wilshire is brass throughout, both material and substrate, which is what carries its plated finishes such as Unlacquered Brass US3NL and Satin Brass US4. If the specification calls for stainless, the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle at 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting, and the ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end commercial door pull at 1 inch diameter. The AB7200 keeps the through-bolt attachment the Wilshire uses.

The Wilshire projects 2 inches off the door face, which is the space between the grip and the door. That is generous for a residential entry or a cabinet, and it clears a work glove. Grip section is 1-1/4 inches wide.

Unlacquered brass (US3NL) is raw brass with no clear coat, so it darkens and develops a patina with handling. If you want brass that stays bright, order the Polished Brass Lifetime finish (US3) instead. Both are the same solid brass pull underneath, the difference is the coating.

Yes, it is built as a door or appliance pull. Solid brass, 8 inch center to center, thru-bolt through the panel. On a paneled appliance front, get the panel thickness onto the order so the mounting hardware is the right length, and consider the CS concealed surface version if you do not want caps showing.

For a contemporary look in a back-to-back set, ZenSupply carries the Deltana SSPOBB24, a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset pull, and the SSPORBB24 in the round offset version at the same 24 inch length. Both are far longer than the Wilshire's 8 inch center to center, so they suit a tall entry or glass door where the Wilshire suits a standard house door. There is also the Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull back-to-back set, which is spec'd for 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 inch doors.

The base number is 86078 plus the finish code, so the oil rubbed bronze standard pull is 86078US10B and polished nickel is 86078US14. The mounting shows up as a prefix: BTB86078US10B is the back-to-back version and CS86078US10B is the concealed surface version of that same finish. Read the prefix first and the US code last and you have the whole part.

No, they do the opposite job. The Wilshire is a graspable pull with a 2 inch projection off the door face, mounted thru-bolt, and it may be used on its own or together with pull plates. The Trimco 1001-1 is a heavy duty push plate measuring 3 inches by 12 inches, and the Trimco 1041 is a half-round push plate at 8 inches by 16 inches; both are flat plates for the push side of a door. If you want one part that does both, the Trimco 1070 series is a classic push/pull plate at 3-1/2 inches by 15 inches.

The Wilshire measures 8 inches high, 1-1/4 inches wide, with a 2 inch projection, which suits a single-hand grip. For a longer single-side pull, the Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull supplied for single side mounting. It gives more hand length on the door while still being one pull on one face, the same way the Wilshire is used on a single face.

The Wilshire is a straight brass pull, 8 inches high with a 2 inch projection, mounted thru-bolt and finished in decorative options such as Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B and Polished Chrome US26. The ABH AB3310 is an offset flat end door pull handle built for commercial grade surface mount, and the ABH AB3330 series is an offset round end pull with custom length options. The offset shape moves the grip away from the door face along the length of the handle, and the ABH AB3330 can be ordered in lengths other than a fixed 8 inches.

The Wilshire is an American Classic brass pull that Emtek lists as residential, which suits an apartment or house bathroom door. For a commercial restroom taking constant traffic, the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is a heavy duty pull from the 1035 series intended for that application. If you want a pull and push plate treatment on the same door, the Trimco 1070 series classic push/pull plates run 3-1/2 inches by 15 inches.

They mount differently on the door face. The Wilshire is a straight pull, 8 inches center-to-center with a 2 inch projection, offered in standard thru-bolt with decorative caps, back-to-back, and concealed surface mounting. The Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid door pull at 1 inch diameter with heavy duty mounting. The C style offset sets the grip on a different geometry than the Wilshire's straight bar, so the two are not a drop-in swap on an existing bore pattern.

Solid brass throughout. Brass is the standard material for exterior residential entry trim and takes weather without rusting. The finish is what drives how it ages: unlacquered brass (US3NL) will patina outside, while a plated finish like polished chrome (US26) or satin nickel (US15) holds its appearance longer.
