NATIONAL UTILITY PULL - GALVANIZEDNational Hardware bar-type utility pull with rounded bow profile for comfortable grip on screen doors, drawer fronts, tool chest lids, shed doors, gates, and equipment lockers. Stamped steel body with hot-dipped galvanized finish for direct outdoor exposure - gates, barns, sheds, and farm equipment; mounting screws included.
- Overall length: 5-3/4"
- Projection from mounting surface: 1-3/8"
- Body: stamped steel
- Finish: galvanized (matte silver-gray)
- Mounting hardware: two wood screws included
- Use on: wood or metal doors, drawer fronts, tool chest lids, screen doors, gate panels, shed doors, equipment lockers, large drawers
Installation Tip: Position the pull at a comfortable hand height for the application - typically 36" to 42" off the floor for screen and shed doors, or centered on drawer or lid faces. Mark and pilot-drill both screw holes through the panel; oversize pilots slightly in hardwood and use sheet-metal screws instead of the supplied wood screws on steel doors. For panels thicker than 1-1/2" or for pulls that will see heavy daily use, step up to longer #10 wood screws so the pull anchors into structural framing rather than just the door skin.
Finish Selection Tip: Galvanized is the strongest standard outdoor finish for direct weather and farm/livestock environments where zinc plating wears through too fast. The matte gray surface coordinates with galvanized gate hinges, chain, and farm hardware. For coastal salt-air installs step up to stainless hardware; for visible residential entries where appearance matters more than weather rating, step over to brass, black, or white.
Note: Rated for hand-pull operation, not as a load-bearing carry handle. For luggage, tool, or equipment cases that will be lifted by the handle, step up to a load-rated chest handle line.
