Flush Pulls

Flush Pulls

Flush pulls are an essential component in modern architectural hardware, offering a sleek, recessed solution for opening and closing sliding doors, cabinet fronts, and other applications where protruding hardware is not desired. Favoured in both residential and commercial settings, flush pulls provide a minimalist, space-saving alternative to traditional door handles, making them ideal for contemporary interiors and high-traffic environments. At John Barnes Group, we supply a diverse range of high-quality flush pulls from trusted brands such as Designer Doorware, Dormakaba, Lockwood, Scope, and Zanda, tailored to meet the aesthetic and functional needs of architects, designers, builders, and homeowners across Australia. Buy Flush Pull Handles online today from the John Barnes online shop!

Types of Flush Pulls

Flush pulls come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials to accommodate different door types and design preferences. Understanding the distinctions between these styles is crucial for selecting the appropriate product for your project.

Rectangular and Circular Flush Pulls These are the most common forms, offering clean lines that suit minimalist and contemporary designs. Rectangular flush pulls are often chosen for sliding or cavity doors due to their ergonomic grip, while circular flush pulls are favoured for their softer aesthetic and seamless integration into timber or metal surfaces.

Rebated Flush Pulls Rebated flush pulls are designed to be morticed into the edge of a door, creating a completely flush finish. These are commonly used in double-door configurations or in situations requiring a flush edge, such as folding or bi-fold doors.

Edge Pulls and Pop-out Flush Pulls Edge pulls are typically installed on the edge of sliding doors, allowing the user to pull the door out from a cavity with ease. Pop-out flush pulls include a spring-loaded mechanism that reveals a pull when pressed, enhancing usability while preserving a clean aesthetic.

Lockable Flush Pulls Lockable flush pulls are a practical solution for privacy applications such as bathrooms, bedrooms, or office spaces. Many models incorporate integrated privacy latches or can be keyed alike to other locks within a fitout.

Material and Finish Options

Flush pulls are available in a wide selection of materials and finishes, providing options to suit a variety of interior styles and environmental conditions:

• Stainless Steel: Corrosion-resistant and highly durable, ideal for commercial environments and external doors.

• Brass: Offers a classic or industrial look and can be finished in polished, satin, or antique styles.

• Zinc Alloy: Cost-effective and versatile, often available in powder-coated or electroplated finishes.

• Aluminium: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, suitable for modern interiors.

Popular finishes include satin chrome, matte black, oil-rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, and custom powder coatings to match other design elements.

Applications and Use Cases

Flush pulls are utilised in a range of settings, including:

• Residential Homes: For sliding doors, wardrobe doors, and cabinetry, flush pulls contribute to a clean and cohesive design.

• Commercial Fitouts: Office partitions, meeting room sliders, and utility doors benefit from the functional and aesthetic advantages of flush pulls.

• Aged Care and Healthcare: With compliance to AS1428.1 for accessibility, many flush pulls are designed to meet the specific needs of care environments.

• Hospitality and Retail: In high-traffic environments, flush pulls minimise obstruction and provide durable, secure solutions.

Compliance with Australian Standards

Selection Guidance: Residential vs Commercial

When choosing flush pulls for residential applications, aesthetics and finish options tend to be the highest priorities. Homeowners may opt for matte black or brushed brass finishes to match interior fittings. For commercial environments, durability, compliance, and functionality are paramount—stainless steel and lockable options are often preferred.

In multi-residential developments, such as apartments or retirement villages, considerations such as fire door compatibility and accessibility under AS1428.1 become critical. John Barnes Group can assist in product specification to ensure code compliance and project integration.
