Grab Handles

A grab handle is designed primarily to assist entry and exit, giving a driver or passenger something secure to hold while stepping up into or down from a vehicle. Grab handles are typically bar-style and mounted vertically or at an angle on the vehicle body or door frame.

A pull handle is used to open or close a door or panel. Pull handles prioritise leverage and ease of operation, and are often recessed or drop-style to keep a low profile when not in use.

Stedall’s range covers both types, including steel bar grab handles for entry and exit assistance, recessed drop handles for compartment and panel doors, and sliding door handles for van-style side access.

Stedall’s steel grab handles with diamond pattern grip are available in four lengths: 250mm, 340mm, 550mm, and 720mm. Select based on the available mounting space and the reach required for safe entry and exit. Longer handles suit high-sided vehicles where a wider grip span aids safe boarding. Shorter handles suit more compact mounting positions such as cab doors or smaller access panels.

The diamond pattern grab handles are constructed from steel. The diamond pattern surface provides additional grip, which is particularly useful in commercial vehicle environments where hands may be wet, oily, or gloved.

For compartment or locker doors, a recessed drop handle provides a low-profile option that sits flush when not in use. For toolbox or chest applications, Stedall also stocks chest handles.
