Don-Jo FBG-1-D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a flush bolt guide like the Don-Jo FBG-1-D actually do on a pair of doors?
The FBG-1-D is the small steel guide that mounts to the door edge or face and keeps a flush bolt rod traveling straight so the bolt drops cleanly into the strike. On paired openings where the inactive leaf is held by top and bottom flush bolts, the guide is what stops the rod from wandering and binding. It is a guide only, not the flush bolt itself, so you still need the bolt assembly and the strike.
2) What size is the Don-Jo FBG-1-D flush bolt guide and how much does it offset?
It measures 2-1/2 inches by 7/8 inches with a 5/16 inch offset. That offset is what sets the rod away from the door face so the bolt can run without rubbing. If your existing guide sits flatter or deeper than 5/16 inch against the face, the rod path will change and the bolt may not line up with the strike.
3) What is an equivalent to the Don-Jo FBG-1-D flush bolt guide?
The International Door Closers FG-1200 is a standard flush bolt guide from the FB-1200 series and serves the same role in a flush bolt assembly. The Don-Jo FBG-1-D is an 11-gauge (.119) steel guide measuring 2-1/2 inches long by 7/8 inch wide with a 5/16 inch offset, so if you are matching an existing cutout, confirm the guide dimensions and offset against the opening before swapping between the two.
4) Is the Don-Jo FBG-1-D strong enough for a high-traffic commercial opening?
It is fabricated from 11-gauge steel at .119 thickness and rated for commercial use, so it holds up on school, hospital, and office openings where the inactive leaf gets worked daily. Steel is the substrate, not a plated pot metal, which matters on a part that takes repeated rod contact.
5) How many flush bolt guides come in a pack of the Don-Jo FBG-1-D?
They ship as a shelf pack of 50. That is a stocking quantity aimed at contractors and facility maintenance teams covering multiple openings, not a single-door repair count, so budget for the full pack when you order.
6) What else could I use if the Don-Jo FBG-1-D is not the guide I need?
International Door Closers makes the FG-1200 standard flush bolt guide, part of its FB-1200 Series, which is the cross-brand equivalent for the same job. Pick between them on which one matches the offset and footprint of the guide already cut into your door, since the guide has to keep the rod on the same path the existing mortise was prepped for.
7) Is a flush bolt guide the same thing as a flush bolt, or do I need both?
They are different parts. The Don-Jo FBG-1-D is the guide only - a 2-1/2 inch by 7/8 inch 11-gauge steel plate with a 5/16 inch offset that mounts to align the bolt and keep its travel true. It does not latch anything by itself; the flush bolt mechanism in the inactive leaf is a separate item. The International Door Closers FG-1200 is likewise a guide rather than a bolt. Order the bolt assembly separately and use the guide to support it.
8) I need guides for a few dozen double-door openings - does it matter which flush bolt guide I standardize on?
Standardizing matters mostly for cutout consistency across the building. The Don-Jo FBG-1-D is sold in a shelf pack of 50 in 11-gauge (.119) steel at 2-1/2 inches by 7/8 inch with a 5/16 inch offset, which suits stocking one profile across multiple paired openings. The International Door Closers FG-1200 is a standard guide in the FB-1200 series and is typically matched to that series' bolts. If your existing bolts are FB-1200 hardware, keeping the guide in that series avoids re-prepping; if you are specifying fresh, one uniform guide profile across the fleet is the simpler maintenance path.
9) Can I use the Don-Jo FBG-1-D on a single door, or only on a double-door pair?
Both. Don-Jo lists the FBG-1-D for flush bolt assemblies on paired or single doors. The common case is the inactive leaf of a pair, but any single door running a flush bolt rod uses the same guide.
