Ives IVE-046XY-83-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Ives 046XY continuous hinge carry a 400 lb door without reinforcing?
Yes. The 046XY half surface geared continuous hinge handles doors up to 450 pounds with no reinforcing, and up to 600 pounds when the door is reinforced. That covers most heavy commercial openings, lead-lined doors, and high-traffic entries where butt hinges keep sagging.
2) Do I have to order a left hand or right hand Ives 046XY hinge?
Handing is not a factor. The 046XY is non-handed, so one part number works on a left hand or right hand opening. On top of that it offers XY adjustment, lateral and vertical, while the door is hanging, so you can pull the door into alignment on site instead of shimming.
3) Can the Ives 046XY be installed over an existing butt hinge prep without patching the frame?
That is what the half surface design is for. The 046XY has an extended frame guidance lip that covers existing heavy weight architectural hinge preps, so you can pull three worn butts off a frame and mount the continuous hinge over the cutouts. Frame leaf depth is 1-7/8 inches with a 9/32 inch door inset, so check the strike side clearance before you commit.
4) Is the Ives 046XY hinge approved for a 90 minute fire rated door?
The 046XY is UL10C rated for 90 minute fire applications and certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1. For an institutional buyer standardizing on fire rated openings, that pairs with a labeled door and frame assembly rated 90 minutes or less.
5) What finishes does the Ives 046XY geared continuous hinge come in?
Three anodized finishes: 628 clear anodized aluminum, 710 dark bronze anodized, and 711 black anodized. All three are available in every length, so a property manager matching a run of storefront or aluminum entrances can hold one finish across 83, 85, 95 and 119 inch doors.
6) Half surface versus full surface continuous hinge, which one do I need?
Half surface means the frame leaf mortises into the frame while the door leaf mounts to the face of the door. The 046XY is the half surface version, with a 1-7/8 inch frame leaf depth and a wide door leaf. Pick it when the frame is already prepped for butt hinges and you want to cover that prep. Go full surface instead when the frame cannot be mortised at all, such as a wrapped or previously damaged frame where both leaves need to sit on the surface.
7) Is a geared continuous hinge worth it over three heavy weight butt hinges on a high traffic door?
On a door that gets abused, yes. The 046XY spreads the load down the full height of the opening rather than through three points, so the door stays in alignment and the frame does not tear out. The patented center loaded interlocking bearing design carries the weight, and the hinge eliminates the pinch point between cover and door plus finger entrapment between hinge sections, which matters in schools and healthcare.
8) Where can I get the install template for the Ives 046XY XY adjustable hinge?
Ives publishes installation instructions for the XY surface continuous hinge, and the Ives full line architectural hardware catalog carries the mounting details. Use the manufacturer template to lay out the fastener holes on the door face and frame before drilling, since the XY adjustment corrects alignment but not a mislocated hole line.
