Trimco TRI-1698-12.605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Trimco 1698 push bar set include, and what do I have to specify when I order?
The 1698 is a two bar set from Trimco's 1640 Series: cast bronze or brass brackets mated with 5/8 inch tube rod. Center-to-center dimension has to be specified when ordering, so decide the bar length first. Sizes run 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36 inches.
2) I need pulls on both sides of the door - does the Trimco 1698 do that, or do I need something else?
The Trimco 1698 is sold as a two-bar set for the push side of an opening, with center-to-center specified at order. For a true back-to-back arrangement with matched hardware 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, the Deltana OHP620 is an off-set handle pull in a back-to-back set for doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch thick, and the Sure-Loc PL-2KN is a knurled long door pull in a double-sided configuration.
3) What is a straight-bar alternative to the Trimco 1698 push bar set for a heavy-traffic commercial entrance?
The Trimco 1698 is a two-bar push bar set built on cast bronze or brass brackets with 5/8 inch tube bars, and center-to-center must be specified when ordering. If you want a single straight bar instead of a two-bar assembly, the Ives 8102HD is a heavy duty straight door pull using a 3/4 inch round bar with 1-1/2 inch clearance, and the Ives 8103HD is a heavy duty straight pull with a 1 inch round bar mounted through-bolt. Those give you one horizontal or vertical bar per leaf rather than the paired-bar look the 1698 produces.
4) If the door needs an offset pull rather than a push bar, what should I use instead of the Trimco 1698?
The Trimco 1698 is a push bar set, meant to be pushed against on the push side of the opening, not gripped. For a grip-style offset pull, the Ives 8169 is a C style offset solid pull with a 1 inch diameter and heavy duty mounting, the Ives 8145EZHD is a 45 degree offset pull described as ADA compliant with heavy duty mounting hardware, and the ABH AB3310 is an offset flat end door pull in a commercial grade surface mount. The ABH AB3330 offers offset round end pulls with custom length options.
5) What sizes does the Trimco 1698 two bar push bar come in?
Five lengths: 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36 inches. For a standard 3 foot commercial entrance leaf, 24 or 30 inch bars are the usual pick so the ends stay clear of the stiles; 36 inch suits wide or oversized doors.
6) Which finishes can I get the Trimco 1698 push bar in to match the rest of my door hardware?
Eight finishes are orderable across every size: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 622 matte black, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless steel and 630 satin stainless steel. 626 and 630 are the ones that line up with most commercial lock and closer trim.
7) Should I use a two bar push bar set or a single door pull on my entrance door?
Two bars give you a push surface at two heights, which is what you want on a high traffic entrance where people push with a hand, a hip or a cart. A single pull like the Ives 8102HD straight pull or the Deltana SSP1210 12 inch contemporary pull is the choice when you only need one grab point on the pull side. The 1640 Series is also made in 1, 3 and 4 bar arrangements if two is not the look you need.
8) Is the Trimco 1698 push bar set suitable for a school or government building entrance?
Yes. Trimco lists the 1640 Series for commercial and industrial buildings, government and military facilities, manufacturing plants, multifamily and mixed use, public buildings and schools. The brackets are solid cast bronze or brass rather than formed sheet, which is what holds up on those openings.
9) Is a 1640 Series push bar the right thing for a door that needs an ADA compliant pull?
If the opening needs a documented ADA compliant offset pull, the Ives 8145EZHD 45 degree offset pull is listed as ADA compliant and is the one to spec. The Trimco 1698 push bar is a push side device in solid bronze or brass brackets with 5/8 inch rod, chosen for appearance and durability on commercial entrances.
10) Is there a simpler single-bar option than the Trimco 1698 two-bar set?
Within the Trimco 1640 Series, push bars are offered in 1, 2, 3 and 4 bar options, so a one-bar configuration exists in the same family and keeps the same cast bracket and 5/8 inch rod construction. Outside the series, the ABH AB3300 is a straight flat end pull handle with a 1.00 inch diameter, and the Sure-Loc PL-1RD is a round long door pull, single-sided, offered with concealed or thru-bolt mounting.
11) What is a stainless steel equivalent to the Trimco 1698 push bar?
The Trimco 1698 uses cast bronze or brass brackets with 5/8 inch tube bars and is offered in finishes including 629 bright stainless steel and 630 satin stainless steel. If you want solid stainless bar stock rather than a plated finish over cast brass, the ABH AB7200 is a solid stainless steel flat end pull handle at 7/8 inch diameter with through-bolt mounting.
12) What is the Steralloy 710CU finish on the Trimco 1698 and why would a healthcare facility want it?
710CU is Trimco's Healthy Hardware Steralloy Silver, a copper bearing alloy finish offered on the 1698 push bar. Facilities specify it on high touch surfaces like push bars in patient corridors. Note the standard architectural finishes (605, 606, 613, 613E, 622, 626, 629, 630) are the ones stocked as regular size and finish combinations.
13) Are Trimco 1698 push bars made in the USA?
Yes, the 1640 Series push bars are manufactured in the United States, which matters if you are buying into a government or public project with domestic sourcing language in the spec.
