Pull Handle Finishes: Satin Stainless, Matt Black, Brass and Timber

Updated 2026-11-08 · RAYEN 雷茵

A pull handle is the largest piece of metal on most doors, so its finish sets the tone for everything else. Here is every finish our pull handles and glass door handles list.

Which finishes do most pull handles come in?

• Satin stainless. The steel itself, with a soft, even sheen. Listed on most stainless and glass door handles, such as T1170 and G1105.
• Matt black. A black finish over the steel. Listed beside satin stainless on most of the same models.

If a project needs one handle in two colours, these two give the widest choice of shapes.

Which models come in antique brass?

Antique brass is an aged brass tone on a stainless handle. The handle stays stainless steel; the colour is a finish. It is listed on a smaller group, including T1050, T1224, G1229, G1234 and G1239. Check each model page before you specify it across a project.

What are the brass and polished finishes?

• Polished brass. Listed on our brass pull handles, such as T812 and T3103, where the handle itself is brass. See brass pull handles.
• Satin brass. Listed on the recessed pull PRE150, which is also brass.
• Brushed stainless and polished stainless. Listed on the small handles SC-101 SS and SC-102 SS and on the flush pulls such as SC-901 SS.
• Matt antique bronze and zirconium gold. Also listed on SC-101 SS and SC-102 SS.
• Anodised silver. Listed on the aluminium bar PRE_W160.

Note the difference between polished brass on a brass handle and antique brass on a stainless one. On a purchase order they read alike; in the box they are different metals.

Which handles have a timber grip?

Four models list satin stainless with timber: T2750, G2750, G1289 and G1293. The metal parts are satin stainless and the grip is wood. Timber is a natural material, so the grain and colour vary from piece to piece; agree that with your customer before the order. T2750 also lists matt black.

How do you match pull handles to the rest of the door?

Our levers use a longer finish list than our pull handles. A lever in brushed black nickel has no pull handle twin under the same name. Two matches are straightforward:

• Matt black pull handle with matt black lever: both lists carry it.
• Satin stainless pull handle with satin stainless lever: the UL1005 family lists satin stainless and matt black, the same pair as most of our pulls.

For anything else, ask for samples of both parts and compare them side by side. The full lever list is in lever handle finishes.

What about glass doors?

Glass door handles list satin stainless, matt black, antique brass and, on three models, timber. On a glass door both faces show, so a back-to-back pair is seen from both sides in the same finish. If you want a different finish on each side, ask before you order.

What should you check before ordering?

• That the finish appears on the exact model's page.
• That hinges, locks and stops on the same door come in a matching finish.
• For timber grips, that the customer accepts natural variation.
• For brass, whether you mean the metal or the colour.

What to write on your order

Write the model, the length and centre, and the finish by its full name. For example: T1170, 600mm long, P=425mm, matt black. Or G1229, 600mm long, P=425mm, antique brass. For a project of more than one door, put the finish on every line, not once at the top.
