Ives IVE-027XY-83-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Ives 027XY continuous hinge work on a 2 inch thick door?
Yes. The 027XY uses a wide door leaf built for 2 inch and 2-1/4 inch doors, which is thicker than the 1-3/4 inch commercial standard most continuous hinges are cut for. If your door is 1-3/4 inches, this is the wrong leaf geometry and you want a standard-width leaf geared hinge instead.
2) How heavy a door can the Ives 027XY geared hinge carry?
Up to 450 pounds with no frame reinforcing, and up to 600 pounds when the frame is reinforced. The center-loaded interlocking bearing spreads that load down the full length of the frame rather than into three or four hinge points, which is what keeps a heavy wide door from sagging over time.
3) Can I put an Ives 027XY continuous hinge in an opening that already has heavy weight butt hinges?
That is what it is built for. The 027XY carries an extended frame guidance lip that covers existing heavy-weight architectural hinge preparations, so the old mortise pockets in the frame get hidden rather than needing to be filled and refinished. It is a full mortise hinge, so the door edge and frame rabbet both get prepped for the continuous leaf.
4) Do I have to order the Ives 027XY hinge left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The 027XY is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings. That matters on a fleet order: you can stock a single length and finish for every wide opening in the building instead of splitting the buy between LH and RH.
5) Should I use a continuous geared hinge or heavy weight butt hinges on a wide heavy door?
Butt hinges concentrate the whole door load into two or three points on the frame, which is where sag and dragging doors on wide leaves come from. A geared continuous hinge like the 027XY runs the full height of the opening and distributes the weight along the entire frame, holding alignment on doors to 450 pounds unreinforced. On a 48 inch wide high-traffic opening, the continuous hinge is the answer. On a narrow, light interior door with no abuse history, butts are still fine and cheaper to prep.
6) Is there a pinch point risk with the Ives 027XY geared hinge on a school or daycare door?
The 027XY runs a pin-free design with separate gear sections for the door leaf and the frame leaf, which closes off the finger pinch gap you get at the hinge side of a butt-hung door. That is a common reason continuous geared hinges get specified on educational and healthcare openings.
