FAQs
What does one pair of pull handles include?
One pair includes two pull handles.
One pull is installed on the outside of the door and one on the inside.
For a single door, 1 pair is required.
For double doors, 2 pairs are required.
What materials are available?
Our stainless steel collections are primarily available in:
· 304L Stainless Steel
· 316 Stainless Steel
304L is suitable for most general architectural applications, while 316 provides enhanced corrosion resistance for more demanding environments.
Selected bespoke projects may also be produced in Aluminum or Brass, depending on the design and project requirements.
What finishes are currently available?
Our current standard PVD finish options include:
· PVD Metal Black
· PVD Satin Nickel
· PVD Polished Gold
· PVD Satin Gold
Each finish creates a different architectural character, from understated satin metallic tones to stronger polished statement finishes.
Selected custom finishes may also be available for project orders.
Are the mounting posts hollow?
No.
The current FORM & HOLD construction uses solid stainless steel mounting posts.
The solid construction provides:
· Greater structural strength
· Improved machining precision
· Better thread integrity
· Cleaner geometry
· A more substantial premium feel
What material are the installation screws made from?
All supplied installation screws are manufactured from 304 stainless steel.
This provides good strength, corrosion resistance and long-term durability.
What screw lengths are included?
Selected standard pull handle sets include three M8 screw lengths:
· M8 × 45
· M8 × 80
· M8 × 95
These three lengths help accommodate a wider range of door thicknesses and installation conditions.
Which screw length should I use?
The correct screw length depends on:
· Door thickness
· Mounting structure
· Gasket thickness
· Required thread engagement
As a general guide:
· M8 × 45 — glass doors and thinner doors
· M8 × 80 — many standard door thicknesses
· M8 × 95 — thicker doors and special installation conditions
If you are unsure, contact us before installation.
What types of doors can FORM & HOLD pull handles be installed on?
Our pull handles can be used on a range of architectural doors, including:
· Tempered glass doors
· Wood doors
· Metal doors
· Commercial entrance doors
· Residential doors
· Project-specific door systems
Compatibility depends on the mounting structure and door construction.
Can I order a custom size or CTC?
Yes.
Standard products are offered in defined size combinations, while custom Overall Length, CTC, Projection and other dimensions can be discussed for project orders.
What does CTC mean?
CTC means Center-to-Center.
It is the distance between the centers of the mounting holes.
For pre-drilled glass, CTC should always be confirmed before ordering because tempered glass normally cannot be re-drilled after production.
What is the difference between 304L and 316 stainless steel?
304L Stainless Steel is an excellent choice for most interior and general architectural applications.
316 Stainless Steel offers enhanced corrosion resistance and is recommended for more demanding environments, including coastal areas and locations exposed to higher humidity or corrosive conditions.
