Long Entrance Door Pull Handles: Reading P=700+500+700mm

Updated 2026-11-05 · RAYEN 雷茵

A long pull changes the look of an entrance and the way the door is built. Every extra foot is another hole, and each hole has to land on something solid. This guide reads the sizes for you, using our door pull handles and glass door handles.

How do you read P=700+500+700mm?

Each plus sign is a foot. Add the numbers and you get the distance from the first foot to the last.

• G1111, 2000mm long: P=700+500+700mm. Four feet. The chain adds up to 1900mm, which leaves 100mm of bar, and the drawing shows 50mm past each end foot.
• G1110, 2000mm long: the same chain, P=700+500+700mm.
• G1212, 2000mm long: P=675+550+675mm. Also four feet and also 1900mm, but the two inner feet sit in different places from the models above.
• G1252, 1422mm long: P=700+700mm. Three feet.
• G1240, 1360mm long: P=650+650mm. Three feet.

So a 2000mm handle is not one size. Two handles of the same length can have different hole patterns, and on a glass door that decides the glass.

What does P1 mean on a long handle?

Some long models print two figures: P for the outer feet and P1 for the inner ones. Where P1 is measured from changes by model, so open the drawing.

• T561: P=1640–2140mm overall. P1=620mm is measured from each end foot to the next foot in, so the middle span grows as the handle grows.
• G999: P=1640–2140mm overall. P1=700mm is the gap between the two middle feet, around a 600mm grip.
• T69: P=1660–2160mm or P=2161–2360mm overall, with P1=1000mm between the middle feet.

Same label, different place on the bar. A fitter who assumes one and drills the other has a door with holes in the wrong spot.

Long handles for glass entrance doors

These are the long models in the glass range with their centres. Where a model has two lengths, each length has its own P.

Hole sizes for glass are in the glass door handle hole guide. Several long models still need the hole confirmed on the drawing before the glass is ordered.

Long handles for timber and metal entrance doors

• T2751: 1300mm long, P=1273mm, Ø27mm, projection 67mm, 3.2kg, M8 screw.
• T1278: 1800mm long, P=1200mm, Ø32mm, projection 62mm.
• T2681: 1925mm long at P=1200mm or 2025mm long at P=1300mm, 25mm grip, projection 68mm.
• T7610: 2025mm long, P=1100mm, 25mm grip, projection 54mm.
• T1118: 2000mm or 700mm long on an 80 × 16mm base plate, 25.2mm grip, projection 58.5mm.

Look at the gap between length and P. T7610 has its feet 1100mm apart on a 2025mm bar, so the bar runs well past both feet. T2751 has its feet near the ends. Same door, different look, different holes.

Which long handles are made to length?

Some models are given as a range because we cut them for the door.

• T2973: 1600mm to 3100mm in three bands: A 1600–2200, B 2201–2700, C 2701–3100. P=1480–2980mm, with P1=40mm at each end. The grip is a flat 25 × 8mm bar.
• T51: band A P=1660–2160mm, band B P=2161–2360mm. 25mm grip, projection 68mm.
• T58: P=1660–2060mm, 25 × 25mm square, projection 65mm.
• G1271: P=1640–2140mm, 25mm grip, projection 61mm.
• G2690: lengths from 600mm to 2460mm, Ø22mm tube, projection 71mm, M6 screw.

State the length in millimetres. A band tells us where your handle sits, not the size to make it.

What should you measure on the door?

• Door height, and the height of the top and bottom rails. The end feet must land on solid material.
• Any lock, rail or glass joint on the handle line. A foot can never share that spot.
• The handle line from the door edge. On a pair of doors, add both projections and both grips.
• Door thickness and material, for the screw length and hole size.
• The clear height above the floor at the bottom end. A long bar can sit lower than you think.

Weight rises fast with length. T1018, 1000mm long, weighs 6.6kg. Ask a door maker to confirm that hinges and door frame take the extra load.

What to write on your order

One line per door: model, overall length in mm, the full P chain, grip section, finish, door material and thickness, and how many sets. For example: G1111, 2000mm long, P=700+500+700mm, M6, four holes φ12mm in glass. Send a door elevation with the height of each foot marked, and we will check it against the drawing before cutting.
