Glass Door Handle or Timber Door Handle: What Changes Between G and T Models

Updated 2026-11-09 · RAYEN 雷茵

Our glass door handles and door pull handles share many model numbers: G1170 and T1170, G52 and T52, G2888 and T2888. Buyers fairly assume they are one handle under two codes. Some are close; none should be ordered without checking the figures below.

What changes between the G and T versions?

Comparing every pair we list, four things change.

• The screw. G1170 is M8 and T1170 M6. G52 is M8 and T52 M6. It also runs the other way: G2888 is M6 and T2888 M8; G7110 is M6 and T7110 M8.
• The projection. G1131 stands 71.5mm off the door, T1131 58mm. G1265 is 70.8mm, T1265 55mm.
• The bar. G1130 has a 22mm bar, T1130 25mm. G720 is 20mm, T720 25mm.
• The listed lengths. G2750 is listed at 600mm, T2750 at 452mm, from the same 452mm to 600mm range.

Some pairs differ very little. G1121 and T1121 share the length, centre, bar and screw, and differ by 1.5mm of projection and by weight.

Why are the holes different?

On glass, the hole is larger than in timber for the same screw, leaving room for the parts that sit between the metal and the glass. Ask which of them come in the pack for your glass.

• M6: φ12mm in glass, φ8mm in a flush or timber door.
• M8: φ16mm in glass, φ10mm in timber.

In this table of glass door handles, the Fixing hole column is the hole in glass for the M6 models.

The full list is in glass door handle hole size, and the timber side in back-to-back pull handle fixing.

Can I put a glass door handle on a timber door?

Usually yes. Our glass door handles list a second, smaller hole for a timber or flush door. The reverse is the risky one: a timber door handle has no glass hole confirmed for its fixing, and the glass cannot be drilled after toughening to fix a mistake. If the door is glass, order the G version, or ask us to confirm the T version for glass before the glass is cut.

What about the look?

On a glass door both faces show, and so does the fixing between them. The G versions are drawn and photographed on glass. If the same handle must appear on glass doors and timber doors in one project, order the G and T versions of the same number and check that the projection and bar match closely enough for your customer: compare G1170 at 67.2mm and T1170 at 60.4mm, for example.

What should you check?

• Door type for every line: glass or timber.
• The screw and hole for that exact code, not for the number.
• Glass thickness, for the G version. See stem and glass thickness.
• Projection, if handles on glass and timber doors stand side by side.

What to write on your order

Use the full code with its letter and write the door type: G1170, glass door, 600mm long, P=425mm, M8, φ16mm holes, glass thickness. And T1170, timber door, 600mm long, P=425mm, M6, φ8mm holes.
