Rockwood BF156 US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) I'm replacing an old offset pull on a storefront door. Will the Rockwood BF156 line up with the holes that are already drilled?
Only if the existing holes are 8 inches apart on center. The BF156 is an 8 inch center-to-center pull, so it drops onto a door already prepped at 8 inches CTC. It mounts with 1/4 - 20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts and finish washers, so the existing holes also need to take a 1/4 - 20 bolt. If the old pull was on a different spacing, you are re-drilling the door either way, and at that point the hole pattern is yours to set.
2) Is the Rockwood BF156 offset pull suitable for an ADA barrier free entrance?
Rockwood recommends the BF156 for ADA openings, and the geometry is what makes that work: the 90 degree offset shape gives 2-1/2 inches of clearance behind the grip, so a closed fist or a gloved hand goes in without knuckles hitting the door face. It meets ANSI A156.6, type J402, which is the architectural door trim standard a spec writer will be citing on the drawing.
3) What door thickness does the Rockwood BF156 pull come set up for?
Standard 1-3/4 inch doors. The 1/4 - 20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts that ship with the BF156 are sized for that thickness, which covers essentially every commercial door. If your door is thicker or thinner, say so on the order and Rockwood sets the fastener length accordingly, so it is a specification you make at order time rather than something you fix in the field.
4) How do I order the Rockwood BF156 as a matched pair back to back on the same door instead of a single pull?
Add the BTB suffix plus the mounting type number to the model, for example BF156BTB16. That is the back to back configuration, where two pulls bolt through the door against each other rather than one pull bolting against washers on the far face. For a single pull with the fasteners hidden, use the C suffix and a mounting type number instead, as in BF156C17. Both are ordering options on the BF156, not separate products.
5) Will the Rockwood BF156 fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
Not as it ships. The BF156 comes with 1/4 - 20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts cut for a 1-3/4 inch door, and a thinner leaf needs the fastener length called out on the order. If you are working on lighter residential or interior doors in the 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 inch range, the Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull is a back-to-back set listed for exactly that thickness range and is the simpler buy for that opening.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Rockwood BF156 if the opening calls for a 45 degree offset instead of a 90 degree?
The Rockwood BF156 is a 90 degree offset pull, offset hung, recommended for ADA openings, at 8 inch center to center with 2-1/2 inch clearance and 3-1/2 inch projection. The Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull in the ADA compliant EZ series and comes with heavy duty mounting hardware. Both are offset pulls meant for barrier free openings; what changes is the angle at which the grip breaks away from the door face, which changes how the hand meets the bar and how the return sits against the stile. If the offset only needs to be a flat end offset rather than a specific angle, the ABH AB3310 is an offset flat end door pull handle in a commercial grade surface mount.
7) Our doors are 1-3/8 inch thick. Does the Rockwood BF156 still work, or is there a pull already sized for thinner doors?
The Rockwood BF156 ships standard with 1/4-20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts and finish washers sized for a standard 1-3/4 inch door, and Rockwood asks that you advise when the door thickness is something other than 1-3/4 inch so the fastening is set up for it. If you would rather order a pull that already states a thinner door range, the Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull is a back to back set with a listed door thickness range of 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch. Both are offset style pulls; the OHP620 is sold as a back to back set for both faces, while the BF156 is configured by fastening type, including back to back in pairs using the BTB suffix with the mounting type number, for example BF156BTB16.
8) How much hand clearance does the Rockwood BF156 give behind the bar compared with a heavy duty straight pull?
The Rockwood BF156 lists 2-1/2 inch clearance behind the grip and 3-1/2 inch total projection off the door face. The Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight door pull built on a 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance. That inch of difference is the deciding spec in two directions: a gloved hand or a hand already holding a tool bag needs the deeper clearance, while a pull standing 3-1/2 inch off the face has to be checked against a tight vestibule, a return wall, or a door that swings past adjacent hardware. The BF156 is a commercial pull carrying ANSI A156.6, J402.
9) Can I get the Rockwood BF156 pull without bolt heads showing on the opposite face of the door?
Yes, order it with concealed mounting: the C suffix plus a mounting type number, written BF156C17. The standard build uses 1/4 - 20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts with finish washers, which means the fastener is visible from the back side of the door. Concealed mounting matters on a door where the reverse face is the public side, or where the back of the door already carries a push plate you do not want bolt heads landing in.
10) How far does the Rockwood BF156 stand off the door, and will it be a problem in a narrow vestibule?
The BF156 projects 3-1/2 inches off the door face with 2-1/2 inches of clear grip space. On a door that swings into a tight vestibule or opens next to a return wall, measure that 3-1/2 inches against your swing before committing, because the pull adds it to the leaf. If you need something flatter, the Ives 8102HD straight pull is listed at 1-1/2 inch clearance and sits closer to the door, though you give up the offset grip that makes the BF156 easy on a barrier free opening.
11) Should I use a 90 degree offset pull like the Rockwood BF156, a 45 degree offset, or a straight pull on a main entrance?
A 90 degree offset like the BF156 turns the grip square to the door and holds it 2-1/2 inches off the face, which is why it gets specified on barrier free entrances where people pull with a forearm or a closed hand. A 45 degree offset such as the Ives 8145EZHD angles the grip instead of squaring it, which reads less institutional and still keeps the hand off the door. A straight pull like the ABH AB3300 flat end or the Ives 8103HD 1 inch round bar mounts parallel to the face and is the plain choice where the opening is not being detailed for accessibility. The Ives 8169 C style offset sits between the two, with a 1 inch diameter bar and offset legs.
12) Is there a heavy duty version of the Rockwood BF156 for a high traffic entrance?
Add HD to the fastening type number, for example BF156BTB16HD. Rockwood offers heavy duty versions of most of the fastening types on this pull, which is the upgrade to make on a school, hospital or apartment entrance rather than an interior office door. Other heavy duty options ZenSupply stocks include the Ives 8102HD with a 3/4 inch round bar, the Ives 8103HD 1 inch round with through bolt mounting, and the Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull, though none of those carry the BF156 90 degree offset shape.
13) What else do I need to order with a Rockwood BF156 to finish a push/pull entrance?
The BF156 handles the pull side, mounted with 1/4 - 20 thru bolts and finish washers. The push side of that opening normally takes a plate, and ZenSupply carries the Trimco 1001-1 heavy duty push plate at 3 x 12 inches and the Trimco 1070 Series classic push/pull plates at 3-1/2 x 15 inches. Match the plate finish to the pull on the same BHMA number, 630 to 630, and remember that a thru-bolted pull puts fasteners through the door where a plate may land on the other face, which is the case for ordering the BF156 with concealed mounting using the C suffix.
14) Can a night latch cylinder pull be used in place of a barrier free door pull?
They are not interchangeable. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is a night latch cylinder pull, 3-1/2 inch height, stainless steel construction; it mounts at the rim cylinder so the door can be pulled closed at a night latch, and it is not the grip a person opens the door with. The Rockwood BF156 is an offset hung door pull at 8 inch center to center with 2-1/2 inch clearance, recommended for ADA openings, and it is the handle the user pulls. On an opening that has a rim device with a night latch function and also needs a barrier free pull, those are two separate parts on the door.
15) Would a push plate work instead of the Rockwood BF156?
Not on the pull side. A push plate is a flat plate fixed to the push face, such as the Trimco 1001-1 heavy duty push plate at 3 by 12 inches or the Trimco 1041 half round push plate at 8 by 16 inches, and there is no grip to pull against. The Rockwood BF156 is an offset hung pull with 2-1/2 inch clearance and 3-1/2 inch projection, which is what lets a hand get behind the bar and pull the door open. The usual arrangement on a single acting door is a pull on the pull face and a plate on the push face; the Trimco 1070 series classic push and pull plates are listed in a 3-1/2 by 15 inch size for that kind of trim package.
16) We need a much longer grip than 8 inches on a full height entrance door. What offset pulls cover that?
The Rockwood BF156 is an 8 inch center to center offset hung pull. For a long grip on a tall entrance leaf, the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back to back modern offset door pull set and the Deltana SSPORBB24 is a 24 inch back to back round offset set, both supplying both faces of the door. The ABH AB3330 series is an offset round end pull offered with custom length options when the grip has to land on a dimension the standard sizes do not hit. If only one face needs a longer pull, the Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull, single side.
17) The spec calls out a grip diameter. Which comparable commercial pulls state one?
Grip diameter is stated on several peers in the same class as the Rockwood BF156. The ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end pull handle at 1.00 inch diameter, described as a commercial door pull. The ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle at 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting. On the Ives side, the 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull at 1 inch round with through bolt mounting, the 8102HD is a heavy duty straight pull on a 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance, and the 8169 is a C style offset solid door pull at 1 inch diameter with heavy duty mounting. The BF156 sits in the same commercial group at 8 inch center to center with 2-1/2 inch clearance and 3-1/2 inch projection, offset hung, and it thru bolts with 1/4-20 x 2-1/4 inch bolts and finish washers on a standard 1-3/4 inch door.
18) These doors take heavy traffic. Is there a heavy duty version of the Rockwood BF156, or should a different pull be specified?
Rockwood offers heavy duty versions of most fastening types on the BF156 by adding the HD suffix to the fastening type number, written as BF156BTB16HD for a back to back heavy duty pair. If the preference is a pull that is heavy duty as its base product rather than as a fastening option, the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull at 1 inch round with through bolt mounting, and the Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid door pull at 1 inch diameter with heavy duty mounting. The Ives 8145EZHD keeps an offset, ADA compliant geometry and comes with heavy duty mounting hardware, which is the closest heavy duty match to the barrier free intent of the BF156.
19) What finishes does the Rockwood BF156 offset pull come in, and can I match it to the rest of the hardware in the building?
Five finishes: 605 bright brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 628 satin aluminum clear anodized, 630 satin stainless steel, and 313 dark bronze anodized aluminum. Those are standard BHMA finish numbers, so if the closers, hinges and push plates on your other openings were specified as 630 or 613, the pull will match on the same number. For a fleet of doors being brought to a common standard, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial default.
20) For a solid stainless steel pull on a wash down or high touch opening, what are the options next to the Rockwood BF156?
The Rockwood BF156 is produced in aluminum, brass, bronze, and stainless steel, and the stainless option ships as 630 satin stainless steel, with 628 satin aluminum clear anodized, 313 dark bronze anodized aluminum, 605 bright brass, and 613 satin bronze oil rubbed as the other finishes. If solid stainless through the whole part is the requirement, the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle at 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is also stainless steel construction, though it is a night latch cylinder pull rather than a door pull. Both the BF156 and the AB7200 are through bolted, with the BF156 using 1/4-20 x 2-1/4 inch thru bolts and finish washers on a standard 1-3/4 inch door.
21) For a barrier free restroom door, does the Rockwood BF156 fit, or is there a pull made for that opening specifically?
The Rockwood BF156 suits it as a general barrier free pull: offset hung, recommended for ADA openings, 8 inch center to center, 2-1/2 inch clearance, carrying ANSI A156.6, J402, and available in 630 satin stainless steel for a restroom environment. The Trimco 1035 Ultimate Restroom Pull is a heavy duty pull in the 1035 series built around the restroom opening as its purpose. The choice usually comes down to whether the building is standardizing one pull across every barrier free door, in which case the BF156 in one finish covers restrooms and corridors alike, or whether the restroom doors are being treated as their own detail.
22) Some pulls are sold as back to back sets and some as singles. How does that affect ordering the Rockwood BF156 against its peers?
The Rockwood BF156 is configured by fastening type rather than sold in a fixed set: back to back mounting in pairs is ordered with the BTB suffix plus the mounting type number, written BF156BTB16, and a concealed mounting single pull uses the C suffix with the mounting type number, written BF156C17. Several peers are catalog listed as sets from the start, so the count comes out differently on a takeoff. The Deltana OHP620 off-set handle pull is a back to back set, and the Deltana SSPOBB24 and SSPORBB24 are 24 inch back to back offset sets in modern and round profiles. The Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull described as single side. On a multi door package, confirm per opening whether one face or both faces are being trimmed before the quantity is fixed.
