Don-Jo 1560-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo 1560 flush bolt work on a pair of doors with no center mullion?
That is exactly what it is for. The 1560 is an automatic flush bolt sold in pairs, so one set mounts in the inactive leaf of a double door and holds it at the head and sill while the active leaf latches against it. Automatic means the bolts release when the active door opens and re-throw when it closes, so nobody has to reach down and flip a lever. Cast brass body, 6-3/4 inches long by 1 inch wide.
2) Do I need to order a left hand and right hand version of the Don-Jo 1560?
No handing to specify. The 1560 is non-handed, so the same set installs in a left- or right-hand inactive leaf with no extra parts and no separate part number. One line on the order covers either opening.
3) What is the difference between an automatic flush bolt and a manual flush bolt?
A manual flush bolt has to be thrown and retracted by hand at each bolt, which means opening the inactive leaf and working the lever at the top and bottom. The Don-Jo 1560 is automatic: closing the active door drives the bolts home, and opening it releases them. That matters where the inactive leaf gets used for moving carts, furniture, or gurneys, and it matters for accessibility, since the 1560 operates at 5 lbs of force to meet ADA. If the inactive leaf is genuinely never opened, a manual set like the Ives FB358 or the Trimco 3999 corner mount does the same holding job.
4) Can I use the Don-Jo 1560 automatic flush bolt on a fire rated door pair?
The 1560 is UL Rated and built to ANSI Type 25. If your opening is a labeled fire pair, the code requirement is a constant-latching arrangement, and on many fire pairs that means an automatic flush bolt paired with an auxiliary fire latch or a dedicated fire bolt. Sets sold specifically for that duty include the ABH 1860P/1862P automatic pair with thermal lock, rated 3-hour, the Ives FB41 automatic set for wood doors at 90 minutes, and the Ives FB42 top automatic bolt with auxiliary fire latch. Match the set to the rating on the door label.
5) Can I mortise the Don-Jo 1560 into the edge of a 6 inch flush bolt prep?
Not directly. The 1560 face plate runs 6-3/4 inches long by 1 inch wide, so a door already cut for a 6 inch bolt, such as the Trimco 3999SE square end or the Orca 6 inch, needs the pocket lengthened. Going the other way, a 6 inch replacement will not cover a 6-3/4 inch cutout. Measure the existing face plate before ordering.
6) What flush bolt do I use if the inactive leaf has to be released with a key instead of automatically?
The Adams Rite 1870 Series is a cylinder-operated flushbolt with key control, and the Adams Rite 1877 is a cylinder-operated flushbolt for paired wood doors. Those put the bolt under a cylinder so only a keyholder can throw or release the inactive leaf. The Don-Jo 1560 is an automatic bolt with no cylinder: it operates at 5 lbs of force and releases with the active leaf, which is what makes it ADA compliant. For a storefront or tenant space where the second leaf must stay locked to anyone without a key, the 1870 or the wood-door 1877 is the substitution; for an opening where the inactive leaf needs to free itself in normal use, the 1560 is the correct part.
7) What is the closest automatic flush bolt to the Don-Jo 1560 for a pair of wood doors?
The Ives FB41 is an automatic flush bolt set for wood doors with a 3/4 inch throw, carrying a 90 minute fire rating. The Don-Jo 1560 is a cast brass automatic flush bolt built to ANSI Type 25 with a 1 inch vertical adjustment and 5 lb operating force, sold in pairs. Both are automatic style, so the bolt retracts when the inactive leaf is opened rather than being thrown by hand; the FB41 is specified for wood door pairs, while the 1560 is a cast brass unit for commercial pairs generally. If the opening is wood and the AHJ wants a stated 90 minute rating on the bolt itself, the FB41 is the direct swap.
8) I need a fire rated automatic flush bolt pair with a longer rating than the Don-Jo 1560 offers. What should I order?
The ABH 1860P/1862P is an automatic flush bolt pair rated fire 3-hour with a thermal lock. The Don-Jo 1560 is an automatic flush bolt in cast brass, UL Rated and built to ANSI Type 25, sold in pairs with 1 inch of vertical adjustment. Where a 3-hour opening is on the drawing and the spec calls out the bolt hardware by rating, the ABH 1860P pair states that 3-hour figure and adds a thermal lock element; the 1560 is the cast brass ANSI Type 25 choice for openings where that hourly figure is not being specified on the bolt.
9) Is a manual flush bolt an acceptable substitute for the Don-Jo 1560 automatic?
They are not interchangeable in function. The Don-Jo 1560 is automatic, so the bolt releases as the active leaf operates and only 5 lbs of force is required, which is what carries its ADA compliance. The Ives FB358 is a manual flush bolt with a 3/4 inch throw and 1/2 inch bolt diameter, and the ABH 1855S is a manual flush bolt single for metal doors with a 3/4 inch throw. A manual bolt has to be thrown and retracted by hand at the bolt itself. Where the inactive leaf is meant to release without someone reaching for the bolt, the 1560 is the automatic answer; where the inactive leaf stays dogged down and is opened only occasionally, the manual FB358 or 1855S does the job.
10) Does the Don-Jo 1560 meet ADA operating force requirements?
Yes, it operates at 5 lbs of force, which is the ADA maximum for door hardware operation. That is the number an inspector on a school, healthcare, or government job will ask for, and it is why an automatic bolt gets specified over a manual one on accessible routes.
11) What if my bolt does not line up with the strike in the frame or the floor?
The 1560 has 1 inch of vertical adjustment built in, so out-of-square frames, a settled slab, or a strike drilled slightly off can be taken up at install without re-prepping the door. That is a full inch of travel on the bolt, top and bottom.
12) Is the Don-Jo 1560 flush bolt rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. Cast brass body rather than a stamped or die cast one, ANSI Type 25, and UL Rated, which is the combination a spec on an office, school, or healthcare pair calls for. Residential-grade decorative sets, like the Delaney 6 inch square end solid brass flush bolt or the Emtek flush bolts, are a different class of part aimed at interior French doors.
13) How many do I need to order to do one pair of doors?
One order of the 1560 covers one opening. It ships as a pair, top and bottom bolt together, which is what a single inactive leaf takes. It is shelf packed 10, so a property manager doing a run of double doors across a building buys by the opening, not by the piece.
14) Is the Trimco 3999 the same thing as the Don-Jo 1560?
No. The Trimco 3999 is a 6 inch corner mount flushbolt with a rounded end, and the 3999SE is the same 6 inch corner mount in a square end. Corner mount means the bolt housing sits into the corner of the door edge and face, a different prep than a bolt let into the door edge. The Don-Jo 1560 is a 6-3/4 inch by 1 inch automatic flush bolt in cast brass, non-handed, with 1 inch of vertical adjustment. The two differ in both mounting style and operation, so confirm what prep is already in the door before swapping one for the other.
15) What is a simpler mortise flush bolt alternative to the Don-Jo 1560 for a residential or light duty pair?
The Delaney 4108 is a 6 inch square end solid brass flush bolt, the Delaney 4101 is a 7 inch slide type mortise flush bolt, and the Orca 86SQ is a 6 inch flush bolt with radius corners. These are straightforward slide or mortise bolts thrown by hand. The Don-Jo 1560 is a commercial automatic flush bolt in cast brass, built to ANSI Type 25, UL Rated, and ADA compliant at 5 lbs of force. On a light duty interior pair with no code requirement on the bolt, the Delaney or Orca units cover the function; where the opening is commercial and the bolt has to meet ANSI Type 25 and the ADA force limit, the 1560 is the one that carries those.
16) I only need the top bolt on the inactive leaf. Is there a single instead of the Don-Jo 1560 pair?
The Don-Jo 1560 is sold in pairs. If the opening needs only one bolt, the ABH 1855S is a manual flush bolt single for metal doors with a 3/4 inch throw, and the ABH 1858 is a universal bottom fire bolt of manual operation. The Ives FB42 is a top automatic flush bolt for wood doors with an auxiliary fire latch, which covers the top position specifically in an automatic style. Match the position and the door material: FB42 for a wood door top automatic, 1855S or 1858 for a metal door single in manual operation.
17) What should I use instead of the Don-Jo 1560 on an aluminum pair that needs both bolts to throw from one point?
The Adams Rite MS1880/MS1881 is a two-point flushbolt with an interlock mechanism, and the MS2180 Series is an auto-release two-point flushbolt with a Smartlock mechanism. Two-point means the top and bottom bolts work together off a single operation rather than as two independent bolts. The Don-Jo 1560 is a pair of automatic flush bolts in cast brass, each 6-3/4 inches long and 1 inch wide, non-handed and adjustable 1 inch vertically. On an opening where the top and bottom must be linked, the MS1880 or the auto-release MS2180 is the substitution; on a pair where each bolt operates independently, the 1560 is the fit.
18) My spec calls for a 12 inch rod on a metal door pair. Does the Don-Jo 1560 cover that?
The Don-Jo 1560 is a 6-3/4 inch automatic flush bolt in cast brass with 1 inch of vertical adjustment. Where the drawing calls out a 12 inch rod on a hollow metal pair, the Ives FB457 is a manual flush bolt with a 12 inch rod length for metal doors and is fire rated. The ABH 1854 Series is a manual flush bolt set with a fire bolt for metal doors. Confirm the rod length the frame prep and header condition require before ordering, since that dimension is what drives the choice here rather than the bolt style.
19) What finishes does the Don-Jo 1560 automatic flush bolt come in?
Three: 605 polished brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, and 626 satin chrome. For a building already standardized on 626 satin chrome levers and closers, the 626 bolt matches; 605 and 613 are there for brass and dark bronze schemes. The body is cast brass under any of them.
20) Is the IDC FB-1202 a substitute for the Don-Jo 1560?
They differ in operation and prep. The International Door Closers FB-1202 is a flush bolt with a positive U joint actuator, 5/8 inch throw, 1/8 inch offset with a 7/8 inch backset, square end, supplied with a guide. The Don-Jo 1560 is an automatic flush bolt, 6-3/4 inches long and 1 inch wide in cast brass, non-handed, requiring 5 lbs of force. Check the 7/8 inch backset and 1/8 inch offset on the FB-1202 against the existing door edge prep, because those figures decide whether it drops into the same mortise the 1560 would occupy.
21) I want a decorative flush bolt to match residential trim instead of the Don-Jo 1560. What are my options?
Emtek Flush Bolts and the Delaney 4108 solid brass flush bolt are the trim-oriented choices, with the Delaney 4363 offered as a 7 inch mortise extension flush bolt where a longer face is wanted. The Don-Jo 1560 is a commercial cast brass automatic flush bolt available in 605 polished brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, and 626 satin chrome, built to ANSI Type 25 and UL Rated. If the goal is matching a decorative interior door package, the Emtek or Delaney bolts are aimed there; if the opening is commercial and the bolt has to carry ANSI Type 25 and UL, the 1560 covers that in the three standard architectural finishes.
