ABH A548SM-42-US32D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a mortised edge guard used for?
A mortised edge guard protects door edges from damage during use. It mounts flush into the door edge, creating a durable barrier against impacts, wear, and scuffing in high-traffic areas.
2) Are these edge guards compatible with standard commercial doors?
These ABH edge guards work with most standard hollow metal and solid core doors. Check your door thickness and edge configuration before ordering. Verify the mortise dimensions match your door specifications.
3) What handing considerations apply to mortised edge guards?
Edge guards typically install on the push side of the door where contact occurs. Determine door swing direction and whether protection is needed on hinge edge, latch edge, or both before selecting models.
4) What finishes are available for these edge guards?
ABH typically offers stainless steel, satin chrome, dark bronze, and other architectural finishes. Match your existing door hardware finish for consistent appearance. Stainless steel provides maximum durability.
5) What grade are ABH mortised edge guards rated for?
ABH manufactures commercial-grade door hardware meeting ANSI standards. These edge guards are designed for heavy-duty commercial applications including hospitals, schools, and high-traffic facilities.
6) Do these edge guards meet building code requirements?
ABH edge guards typically comply with accessibility standards and building codes. Verify local code requirements for door hardware projections and clearances before installation. Check with your local authority having jurisdiction.
7) What fasteners and accessories are included?
Most ABH edge guards include necessary machine screws and mounting hardware. Review the specific model specifications to confirm included components. Additional fasteners may be required based on door construction.
8) How do you install a mortised edge guard?
Installation requires routing a mortise pocket in the door edge to manufacturer specifications. Use the provided template for accurate positioning. Secure with machine screws through pre-drilled holes. Professional installation recommended.
9) Do mortised edge guards require maintenance?
Minimal maintenance required. Periodically check mounting screws for tightness. Clean with appropriate cleaner for the finish type. Inspect for damage or loosening in high-use applications.
10) What other ABH door protection products are available?
ABH offers surface-mounted edge guards, door stops, wall guards, and complete door protection systems. Browse our door hardware section for complementary protection products.
11) Can these edge guards be field adjusted after installation?
Once mortised and installed, these edge guards have limited field adjustment capability. Ensure proper sizing and positioning during initial installation. Contact manufacturer for modification options if needed.
12) What are the standard dimensions for these edge guards?
Standard lengths typically range from 24" to 84" with various widths available. Mortise depth and screw patterns vary by model. Consult manufacturer specifications and templates for exact dimensions before cutting mortises.
