Ives 224XY-83-US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much door weight can the Ives 224XY hinge carry?
Up to 450 pounds with no frame reinforcing, and up to 600 pounds when the frame is reinforced. That covers heavy lead-lined, mineral core, and oversized hollow metal leaves on a 48 inch maximum width door. The load is spread down the full height of the opening rather than through three or four butt hinges, which is why sagging doors on high-traffic openings get converted to continuous geared hinges.
2) Can I run wiring through the Ives 224XY hinge to an electrified lock?
Yes, through one of two options ordered with the hinge. EPT is a power transfer prep, used when you are running a separate electric power transfer through the hinge location. TWP CON is an electric throughwire panel with Allegion Connect built in. Both are handed, so specify right hand or left hand. The base hinge ordered as Standard has no electrical prep, so if the opening has an electric strike, electrified lever, or mag hold-open, choose the prep at the time of order.
3) Can the Ives 224XY replace existing heavy weight butt hinges on an old opening?
That is what the extended frame guidance lip is for. It reaches further than standard so it covers the existing heavy-weight architectural hinge preparations already routed into the frame, which is the usual obstacle in a retrofit. Full mortise mounting puts it on the side of the door stile and inside the frame jamb, so only the gear cover shows with the door closed and the old butt cutouts stay hidden.
4) Is the Ives 224XY continuous hinge fire rated for a 90 minute opening?
Yes, it carries a UL10C 90-minute fire rating and is certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1. That makes it usable on rated corridor and stair doors in schools, hospitals, and office buildings where the door schedule calls for a 90-minute assembly.
5) What screws come with the Ives 224XY and do I need different ones for a wood door?
Mounting hardware is a choice you make on the order, not an afterthought. The standard pack is 12-24 x 3/4 inch steel self-drilling, self-tapping Phillips screws (TEK) for hollow metal door and frame. For a wood door and wood frame you order the WD wood screw pack, and for a wood door in a hollow metal frame there is a split TEKWD pack. Security screw versions with a hex pin drive are available in the same three combinations: SECHM for hollow metal, SECWDWD for wood, and SECWDHM for the mixed condition.
6) Which Ives continuous hinge do I use if I can't mortise the door, full mortise or full surface?
The 224XY is the full mortise version: the leaves mount on the side of the door stile and inside the frame jamb, which requires routing mortise pockets in both, and leaves only the gear cover exposed when the door is closed. If the door or frame cannot be routed, or you are working on an existing opening you don't want to machine, a full surface continuous hinge is the alternative because it screws to the face of the door and the face of the frame instead. Pick full mortise for new work and clean appearance, full surface when the opening has to stay as-is.
7) What finishes does the Ives 224XY come in for matching the rest of a building's doors?
Three anodized aluminum finishes: 628 clear anodized, 710 dark bronze anodized, and 711 black anodized. All three are offered across the 83, 85, 95, and 119 inch lengths, so a property manager standardizing a fleet of openings can hold one finish through every door height in the building.
8) What is the hospital tip option on the Ives 224XY and when would I need it?
HT is a hospital tip, ordered as an additional option on the hinge. It closes off the end of the hinge so there is no exposed pocket for a gown sleeve, IV line, or bed rail to catch on, which is why it is specified in healthcare and behavioral health openings. It is handed, so give right hand or left hand when you order it.
9) Why use a continuous geared hinge instead of three butt hinges on a high traffic door?
A butt hinge concentrates the whole door load into three or four points, and on a heavy leaf swinging hundreds of times a day those points wear, the door drops, and the latch stops lining up with the strike. The 224XY runs the full height of the opening and carries 450 pounds without frame reinforcing, using a patented center-loaded interlocking bearing with a rounded gear design. It also shields the door edge, which is where an entrance door takes its damage. Grade 1 to ANSI 156.26 and commercial rated, so it belongs on entrances, corridors, and stairwells rather than interior residential doors.
