Trimco 1096PHI Series Anti-Vandal Pull with Astragal

The astragal is the vertical closure strip that runs with the pull, covering the gap at the edge of the door so a pry bar or shim cannot reach the latch. That is the difference between the 1096PHI and the plain version of the 1090 Series pull, which Trimco also builds without an astragal. If you are protecting a leaf at a school or a strip mall storefront where forced entry at the door edge is the problem, order the astragal version. If you only need tamper-resistant trim and the edge is already protected, the non-astragal pull covers it.

Both. The 1090 Series anti-vandal pulls are built to mate to exit devices, mortise locks, or cylindrical locks, and Trimco makes versions for in-swing and out-swing doors. That means you specify the pull against the lock you already have on the opening rather than changing the lock to suit the trim. Have the device or lock model and the door swing in hand when you order, because those two things drive which mate you get.

No exposed handle to grab and no exposed fasteners to attack. A standard pull, like the Ives 8103HD straight pull with through-bolt mounting or the ABH AB7200 solid stainless flat end pull, gives you a bar standing off the door face, which is fine in an office corridor and a target in a park restroom or a prison corridor. The Trimco 1090 Series pulls eliminate that grab point, which cuts down on trim damage. Pick the anti-vandal style where abuse is expected; pick a conventional bar pull where grip comfort and looks matter more.

The Trimco 1096PHI is built without exposed handles or fasteners that can be tampered with, which is what makes it suited to schools, prisons and government facilities. If the opening does not face abuse and a conventional exposed grip is acceptable, the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight door pull with a 1 inch round bar and through bolt mounting, and the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight pull with a 3/4 inch round bar and 1-1/2 inch clearance. Both give a standard graspable handle rather than the concealed-fastener flush design of the 1096PHI.

Both are ADA compliant commercial pulls. The Trimco 1096PHI is an anti-vandal pull with an astragal, made from bronze, brass and aluminum substrates, and it mates to exit devices, mortise locks or cylindrical locks. The Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset door pull with heavy duty mounting hardware in the ADA compliant EZ series. The difference is form: the 8145EZHD is an offset bar pull, while the 1096PHI is a vandal resistant trim that also covers the gap between doors with its astragal.

Yes, the 1096PHI anti-vandal pull is ADA compliant, which is why it shows up on government facilities, schools, and other public buildings where the accessible route runs through the door. It is rated for commercial use rather than residential.

Five finishes: 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 613E Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze, 622 Matte Black, 629 Bright Stainless Steel, and 630 Satin Stainless Steel. If your building is standardized on the usual commercial satin stainless trim, 630 is the match. 629 is the polished version of the same. For a dark package, 613 is a living finish that changes with handling, 613E is the oxidized bronze, and 622 gives you a flat black.

You can, and that is the reason this trim gets specified in schools. Because the 1090 Series mates to exit devices, mortise locks, and cylindrical locks and comes for both in-swing and out-swing leaves, one pull family covers openings that currently carry different lock types. Pick one finish across the building, 630 satin stainless being the common commercial choice, and specify astragal or no astragal per door depending on whether the edge gap needs covering.

The Trimco 1096PHI is a commercial anti-vandal pull intended for schools, prisons, commercial and industrial buildings, government facilities and retail strip malls. For a decorative residential entry, the Emtek Art Nouveau 8 inch door pull is lost wax cast bronze and is ordered by handing, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts, Baden and Brisbane 8 inch door pulls cover other decorative styles. Those are styled entry pulls rather than vandal resistant trim.

The value of the Trimco 1096PHI is that it mates to exit devices, mortise locks or cylindrical locks and comes with or without an astragal. On a pull-only door with nothing to coordinate to, a straight surface pull is simpler: the ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end pull handle with a 1.00 inch diameter, the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle of 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting, and the Sure-Loc PL-1RD is a round long door pull, single-sided, offered with concealed or thru-bolt mounting.

No. The Cal-Royal PUL-175 is a night latch cylinder pull, 3-1/2 inches high, in stainless steel construction, sized to sit around a rim cylinder on a night latch door. The Trimco 1096PHI is a full anti-vandal pull with an astragal that mates to exit devices, mortise locks or cylindrical locks on in swing and out swing doors. They are not interchangeable.

For a pair of pulls mounted through the door on both faces, the Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset door pull set, the Deltana SSPORBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back round offset set, and the Deltana OHP620 is an off-set handle pull back-to-back set for doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch thick. The Sure-Loc PL-2KN is a knurled long door pull in a double-sided configuration. These are plain grip pulls rather than the vandal resistant, concealed-fastener design of the Trimco 1096PHI.

The Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid door pull, 1 inch diameter, with heavy duty mounting. It is a robust grip pull, but it presents an exposed handle. The Trimco 1096PHI is specified where trim damage and tampering are the concern, since it has no exposed handles or fasteners and is offered in 1/8 inch material described as type 316 stainless steel, bronze or brass. On an abuse-prone school opening the 1096PHI addresses vandalism directly; the 8169 is the choice where a conventional offset grip is wanted.

Not for the same job. The Deltana SSPOBB24 is a 24 inch back-to-back modern offset pull and the SSP1210 is a 12 inch single-side contemporary pull, both decorative entry pulls with exposed handles. The Trimco 1096PHI is security trim built to mate with a lock or exit device and to deny a grab point on the door. Use the Deltana pulls on a glass or wood entry where appearance leads. Use the Trimco where the opening gets abused.

The Ives 8145EZHD 45 degree offset door pull is listed as ADA compliant and ships with heavy duty mounting hardware, so it covers an accessible opening in a conventional bar pull. The Ives 8169 C style offset pull in 1 inch diameter and the ABH AB3310 offset flat end pull are the other offset options. Go back to the Trimco 1096PHI only if you also need the tamper resistance and the astragal.

The Deltana SSP1210 is a 12 inch contemporary pull for single side mounting, and the Sure-Loc PL-1KN is a knurled long door pull, single-sided, with thru-bolt mounting. Both are plain one-face pulls. The Trimco 1096PHI differs in that it is an anti-vandal pull with an astragal and is made to mate to exit devices, mortise locks or cylindrical locks on in swing and out swing doors.
