Emtek Wrought Steel San Carlos 18" Door Pull

Drill on 15 inch centers. The San Carlos pull is 18 inches overall with a 15 inch center-to-center between the mounting posts, so if you are replacing an existing pull the old holes have to land at 15 inches apart or you will be patching the door.

It is a thru-bolt mount, so the fasteners pass all the way through the door from the back side. That means you need access to both faces, and the bolt length has to suit your door thickness, which is why door thickness is asked for when ordering. On a glass door or a slab you cannot drill through, this is the wrong mounting style.

The Emtek Wrought Steel San Carlos 18 inch pull is a thru-bolt mounted pull with a 2 inch projection and 15 inch center-to-center. If you need a matched pull on each face, the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset door pull set, the Deltana SSPORBB24 is the 24 inch back-to-back round offset version, the Deltana OHP620 is an off-set handle pull supplied as a back-to-back set for 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch doors, and the Sure-Loc PL-2KN is a knurled long door pull in a double-sided configuration.

Projection is 2 inches, measured from the door face to the outside of the grip. That is enough knuckle room for a gloved hand, and it is the number to check against anything the door swings past, a wall, a return, or an adjacent slab on a pair.

Two: Flat Black Steel (part 76029FBS) and Satin Steel (76029SWS). Both are the raw wrought steel look of the collection rather than a plated brass or bronze, so they pair with black or steel hinges and lever sets rather than warm-tone trim.

It is ordered as a single pull per finish part number, 76029FBS or 76029SWS, so a back-to-back application takes two. If you want a set supplied as a matched back-to-back pair, the Deltana SSPOBB24 24 inch offset pulls or the Deltana OHP620 back-to-back set are sold that way.

The Emtek San Carlos 18 inch pull has a 2 inch projection on a thru-bolt mount. If you want an offset form instead, the Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid door pull at 1 inch diameter with heavy duty mounting, the ABH AB3310 is an offset flat end door pull in a commercial grade surface mount, and the ABH AB3330 is an offset round end pull offered with custom length options.

The Emtek San Carlos pull is an 18 inch height with a 15 inch center-to-center. For a longer run, the Deltana SSPOBB24 and SSPORBB24 are both 24 inch back-to-back offset pulls, and the ABH AB3330 offset round end pull is offered with custom length options when the opening needs a length outside the standard sizes.

Emtek classifies it as a door or appliance pull, so it works on a refrigerator panel, a pantry door, or a barn door as well as an entry, provided you can thru-bolt through the panel and the 15 inch hole spacing fits the face.

It is wrought steel, solid steel rather than stainless or brass. Steel in an exposed exterior location will want the finish maintained; for a coastal or heavy weather opening, a solid stainless pull such as the ABH AB7200 is the more durable substrate.
