Architectural Door Trim: What Belongs on the Hardware Schedule
Architectural trim is every piece of functional hardware on a door that isn't the lock body, closer, or hinge. Push plates on the push side of a door with a lockset prevent door face wear from hand contact and provide a visible push surface for users. Pull plates with bar pulls or D-pulls on the pull side of non-latching passage and storage doors. Escutcheons around key cylinders protect the door face finish from wear. Finger plates on door edges in healthcare and food service environments where hands push doors open at the edge rather than through a pull handle. All architectural trim must coordinate in ANSI finish code with the lockset, closer, and hinges on the same opening -- a mixed-finish hardware schedule is a submittal rejection. Call 877-471-4870 for hardware schedule trim pricing on projects.
ADA Requirements for Pull Hardware
ADA Section 404.2.7 requires pull hardware on accessible route doors to be operable with a closed fist without tight grasping, pinching, or twisting. Bar pulls and D-ring pulls in standard 1-1/2 inch diameter or larger comply. Pulls that require inserting a finger into a recessed grip may not comply if the recessed grip dimension is less than the required clearance depth. Mount all pull hardware between 34 and 48 inches above the floor on accessible routes. Rockwood, Ives, and Trimco each provide ADA-compliant pull configurations in all 12 standard ANSI finish codes.
ANSI Finish Coordination for Trim
Every piece of architectural trim on an opening must match the ANSI finish code of the lockset, hinge, and closer. US26D (626) satin chrome is the most common institutional interior finish. US32D (630) satin stainless for premium or exterior applications. US28 (628) aluminum for storefront hardware to match frame finish. Mixing ANSI finish codes on one opening is a submittal rejection on any formally submitted hardware schedule.
Frequently Asked Questions: Architectural Door Trim
What is the standard push plate size for a commercial hollow metal door?
The most common commercial push plate is 4 inches wide by 16 inches tall, surface-mounted with countersunk screws. Larger formats (4x20, 6x16) are specified for high-traffic doors or design intent. ADA doesn't specify a push plate size -- it specifies that the hardware be operable with a closed fist, which push plates inherently satisfy. Rockwood 70 Series and Ives 8200 Series are the most specified commercial push plates in institutional construction.
Do pull handles need to match the lockset lever design on the same opening?
They need to match in finish code (US26D, US32D, etc.) but don't need to match in design style unless the specification calls for a coordinated design package. Some architects specify integrated lever-pull designs where the outside lever and pull handle share the same design language. Most institutional specifications require only finish coordination, not design coordination, across hardware on the same opening.
