Ives IVE-224HD-83-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Ives 224HD continuous geared hinge work on a 1-3/4 inch door?
Yes, the 224HD is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, up to 48 inches of door width, with a 1/16 inch door inset. Those three numbers are the fit envelope: if your door is thinner than 1-3/4, or wider than 48 inches, this is not the right geared hinge for the opening. It is non-handed, so the same part goes on a left or right hand door.
2) How heavy a door can an Ives 224HD hinge carry?
Up to 450 pounds with no reinforcing, and up to 600 pounds when the door and frame are reinforced. That is the spread bearing version of the geared hinge, with bearings every 3 inches on center along the full length, so the load rides the whole jamb instead of three or four butt hinge points.
3) Can I use the Ives 224HD on a 90 minute fire rated door?
Yes. The 224HD carries a UL10C 90 minute fire rating and is certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1, which is what a facility spec or an AHJ inspection will be looking for on a rated commercial opening.
4) Full mortise vs full surface continuous hinge, which one do I need?
Full mortise, which is what the 224HD is, mounts into the edge of the door stile and the inside of the frame jamb, so only the gear cover shows when the door is closed. It requires routing the door and frame, so it suits new doors or a proper prep. A full surface hinge instead screws to the face of the door and the face of the frame with no routing, which is the one to reach for on a beat up existing opening or a wrapped frame you do not want to cut into.
5) Do I need to order handed left and right versions of this continuous hinge?
No, and that is one of the reasons to stock it. The 224HD is non-handed, so one part number covers both hands. On a building with mixed swings you order by length and finish only, which cuts the SKU count on a multi-door job considerably.
6) What screws are used to install the Ives 224HD geared hinge?
Standard installation uses 12-24 x 3/4 inch steel self drilling, self tapping phillips head screws, with optional mounting hardware available for other substrates. Ives supplies templates for laying out the mounting holes on the stile side of the door and the inside of the jamb before you drill and rout.
7) Will a continuous geared hinge fix a door that keeps sagging and dragging?
That is the main reason people switch to one. Butt hinges concentrate the whole door weight at three or four points, and the top hinge screws pull out over time, which is what drops the top corner. The 224HD carries the load along the entire jamb length, so the door holds alignment instead of sagging, and closing the gaps between hinges also removes the pinch points that butt hinges leave along the hinge edge.
8) Does the Ives 224HD protect the door edge?
Yes. The 224HD is the door edge protection version of the full mortise geared hinge, so the hinge leaf covers the hinge edge of the door itself. On high traffic openings, carts and gurneys chew up the hinge stile first, and this puts an aluminum leaf where that damage lands. It is a commercial rated product, not a residential one.
9) What finish should I pick to match the aluminum storefront doors already in the building?
Two anodized finishes are offered on the 224HD: 628 clear anodized aluminum and 710 dark bronze anodized. Clear anodized matches standard mill finish aluminum storefront, dark bronze matches the bronze anodized frames common on older commercial entrances. Both are offered across every length, from 83 inch through 120 inch.
