J & L Shaped Handles – Thru Bolt (TB) Mounting
The J and L are mirror images of one another: the same bar with squared ends, the return running the opposite way. Pair them for French door fridge / freezer combinations, or use either on its own. Handles can be mounted vertically or horizontally. Other typical uses range from millwork appliance doors, closet and pantry doors or on any swing or sliding door that requires a quality built handle.
The handle is secured in place by M5 screws and washers. The back washer takes the same profile shape as the handle giving a higher level of fit and finish. It is a subtle detail that’s noticed when an opened door exposes the mounting hardware at the back. An optional larger profiled escutcheon backplate is provided with each handle for a more classic looking installation. Included with each handle are mounting hardware screw lengths that accommodate a door thickness ranging from 3/4″ to 2 1/4″ (19–57 mm).

The pull is secured in place by a M5 screw and washer. The back washer takes the same profile shape as the pull giving a higher level of fit and finish.

Frequently asked
Do thru-bolt handles fit panel-ready appliances from Sub-Zero, Thermador, Miele, Bosch or Fisher & Paykel?
Yes. The handle bolts through the millwork panel fitted to the appliance, so brand does not matter; Sub-Zero, Thermador, Miele, Bosch and Fisher & Paykel panel-ready units all take these handles. Included hardware covers 3/4″–2 1/4″ (19–57 mm) panels and the handle projects 2″ (51 mm) from the panel face.
What door thickness does the included hardware cover?
M5 bolts and profile-matched back washers are supplied for doors and panels from 3/4″ to 2 1/4″ (19–57 mm). The back washer follows the handle’s D profile, so the fixing looks finished when the door is open. Longer bolts for thicker doors can be requested.
How do I choose between I, J and L?
I is straight at both ends and mounts either way up. J and L are mirror images of one another — both squared, with the return on opposite sides. On a French-door fridge, a J on one panel and an L on the other mirror at the center. All three share the same bar, projection and lengths.
Which finishes are available?
All stainless handles and pulls come in five finishes: Brushed, Polished, Matte Black, Satin Brass PVD and White. The same five finishes run across cabinet pulls, appliance handles, door handles and glass door handles, so one finish can be carried through a kitchen, bathroom and closet without mixing suppliers.
How fast do orders ship, and what is the warranty?
In-stock orders ship in 1–3 workdays from Vancouver, BC to Canada and the US, with free shipping on orders over $500. Stainless handles carry a limited lifetime residential warranty on materials and workmanship (commercial: 5 yr brushed stainless, 2 yr coated). Full terms are at jwlhome.com/warranty.
