Ives 265B26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Ives 265 flush bolt work on a pair of doors with no mullion?
That is what the 265 is for. It's a manual flush bolt that projects a 1 inch bolt out of the inactive leaf of a pair into the frame head or the threshold, so the inactive door holds shut and gives the active leaf something to latch against. You throw and retract it by hand using the deep cup finger hole; the double action spring holds the bolt in whichever position you leave it. Nothing about it is automatic, so anyone using the pair has to reach the bolt to release the inactive leaf.
2) What door prep does the Ives 265 flush bolt need, and what is the backset?
The 265 mortises into the edge of the inactive leaf with a 1/2 inch backset, and the body measures W: 3/4 inch, L: 6 inch, D: 1-7/16 inch, so your mortise pocket has to clear that depth. The radiused bottom faceplate is cut for one-step router installation, which is why the end is round rather than square. If your existing prep was cut for a square-end faceplate, the round end will not drop in without rework.
3) Do I need to order a left hand and right hand version of the Ives 265?
No handing to specify. The 265 is non-handed, so the same part goes in either leaf of a pair and the same stock number covers every opening in the building. That is the practical reason to standardize on it across a property: one part on the shelf instead of two.
4) Is the Ives 265 flush bolt fire rated and does it meet ANSI?
The 265 is UL Listed for fire door applications and meets ANSI A156.16, carrying the L042011 designation. It is a commercial-grade product, not a residential one, so it is the right class of hardware for a rated pair in a school, hospital, or office building. Note that a manual bolt like this is only part of the story on a fire pair; the opening's listing dictates whether manual or automatic bolts are permitted.
5) Should I use a manual flush bolt like the Ives 265 or an automatic one?
Manual bolts like the 265 are hand-operated: someone has to reach up or bend down to throw and release the inactive leaf. They cost less to install and there is less to go wrong. Automatic flush bolts release the inactive leaf when the active leaf closes, which is what you want where the inactive door gets used regularly or where egress rules will not tolerate a hand-thrown bolt. If automatic is what the opening calls for, look at the ABH 1860P/1862P automatic flush bolt pair instead, which is fire rated 3-hour with a thermal lock.
6) What is the difference between the Ives 265 and a square end flush bolt like the Trimco 3999SE?
Faceplate end shape, and it decides whether the part drops into an existing prep. The 265 has a 6 inch round end with a radiused bottom faceplate. The Trimco 3999SE is a 6 inch corner mount square end flushbolt, and Trimco also builds the 3999 as a 6 inch corner mount rounded end. Delaney's 4108 is a 6 inch square end solid brass bolt. Match the end shape to what was routed into the door: a round faceplate leaves a gap in a square pocket, and a square one will not seat in a radiused route without cutting the corners.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Ives 265 flush bolt in a 6 inch rounded end?
The Trimco 3999 is a 6 inch corner mount flushbolt with a rounded end, and the Orca Hardware 86SQ is a 6 inch flush bolt with radius corners. Both share the 265's 6 inch faceplate length and rounded profile, so the router cut and the visible face on the door edge read the same way. The Ives 265 itself is a 6 inch manual flush bolt with a 1 inch throw, 1/2 inch backset, and a polished solid brass faceplate; check throw and backset against your existing strike prep before treating any of the three as a drop-in.
8) The inactive leaf is a hollow metal door, not wood. Is the Ives 265 still the right flush bolt?
The Ives 265 is a commercial manual flush bolt with a 1 inch throw and a polished solid brass faceplate. If you want a bolt specified for metal leaves, the ABH 1855S is a single manual flush bolt for metal doors with a 3/4 inch throw, and the ABH 1854 series is a manual flush bolt set with a fire bolt for metal doors. The ABH 1855S throw is 3/4 inch against the 265's 1 inch, so the top and bottom strike depth in the frame and threshold has to suit the shorter projection.
9) What flush bolt should I use if the inactive leaf has to release automatically when the active door opens?
The Ives 265 is a manual flush bolt: someone reaches down or up and works the deep cup finger hole to project or retract the bolt. For automatic release, the ABH 1860P/1862P is an automatic flush bolt pair, fire rated 3 hour with a thermal lock, and the Adams Rite MS2180 series is an auto release two point flushbolt with a Smartlock mechanism. On an egress pair where the inactive leaf may not be left latched by hand, automatic operation is the functional difference, not a finish or length choice.
10) Which flush bolt lets me key the inactive leaf so only staff can release it?
The Ives 265 is operated by hand at the bolt itself with a deep cup finger hole and holds in the projected or retracted position by spring, so there is no key control over it. When the inactive leaf has to be secured against tenants or the public, the Adams Rite 1870 series is a cylinder operated flushbolt with key control, and the Adams Rite 1877 is a cylinder operated flushbolt for paired wood doors. Those take a cylinder in the door face, which is a different door prep from the routed edge pocket the 265 uses.
11) Does the Ives 265 come with mounting screws or do I have to order them separately?
Screws are in the box. Each 265 ships with 5 x 5/8 inch FPHSMS and 8 x 3/4 inch FPHSMS, so the bolt itself is ready to install. What is not included is anything for the mating leaf: a pair of doors normally takes a bolt at the head and one at the threshold, so order the quantity to suit and plan the floor strike or threshold prep separately.
12) Is there a direct equivalent to the Ives 265 from another brand?
Closest match on shape and size is the Orca Hardware 6 inch flush bolt with radius corners, and the Trimco 3999, a 6 inch corner mount rounded end flushbolt. Both are the same 6 inch round-end format the 265 uses. If you need a longer faceplate for a taller stile, Delaney builds a 7 inch slide type mortise-in flush bolt and a 7 inch mortise extension version.
13) Can the Ives 265 be locked or operated with a key?
No cylinder on the 265. It is thrown and retracted by hand at the bolt, with nothing to key and no way to control who releases the inactive leaf. Where you need key control over the inactive door, Adams Rite makes cylinder-operated flushbolts: the 1870 Series with key control, and the 1877 for paired wood doors.
14) Can I use the Ives 265 on a hollow metal door, or is it for wood only?
The 265 mortises into the door edge and needs a routed pocket 1-7/16 inch deep behind a 3/4 inch wide by 6 inch long faceplate, which is prep you cut in the shop or in the field on a wood or a prepped metal leaf. For hollow metal doors specifically built for a flush bolt, ABH's 1854 Series manual flush bolt set with fire bolt and the 1855S single with 3/4 inch throw are made for metal doors.
15) Is a two point flushbolt the same thing as ordering two of the Ives 265?
No. The Ives 265 is a single 6 inch manual flush bolt, so a top and bottom application means two separate bolts each worked by hand. The Adams Rite MS1880/MS1881 are two point flushbolts with an interlock mechanism, and the Adams Rite MS2180 is an auto release two point flushbolt, meaning top and bottom throw together as one linked assembly. Two 265 units give you two independent bolts, not a linked pair.
16) I only need the bottom bolt on a fire rated pair. Do I have to buy a full flush bolt set?
No. The Ives 265 is a single non handed manual flush bolt that meets ANSI A156.16 and is UL Listed for fire door applications, so one unit covers one location. For a bottom only fire application in metal leaves, the ABH 1858 is a universal bottom fire bolt with manual operation. Sets exist if you want both positions from one part number, such as the ABH 1854 series manual flush bolt set with fire bolt for metal doors.
17) What if the 6 inch faceplate of the Ives 265 is not long enough for the stile I am working with?
Longer mortised options exist in a 7 inch faceplate: the Delaney 4101 is a 7 inch slide type mortise in flush bolt, and the Delaney 4363 is a 7 inch mortise extension flush bolt. The Ives 265 measures 6 inches long by 3/4 inch wide by 1-7/16 inch deep, so a 7 inch bolt needs a longer routed pocket in the door edge and correspondingly more stile to work with. Confirm the stile width and the depth available before committing either way.
18) What is the Ives 265 flush bolt actually made of?
Brass is the substrate. The faceplate is polished solid brass and the bolt itself is aluminum zinc alloy, which is why it holds up against corrosion in commercial service. That construction matters most on high-traffic openings and anywhere humidity is a factor, like a healthcare or hospitality corridor where the inactive leaf gets bumped daily.
19) We standardize on satin chrome across the facility. Does the Ives 265 come in a finish that matches, or do I need another brand?
The Ives 265 is offered in 626 satin chrome, 625 bright chrome, 619 satin nickel, 613 satin bronze oil rubbed, 609 blackened brass, and 605 bright brass, all on a solid brass faceplate. That covers a satin chrome standardization from the same part family, so you can hold one model number across a building and change only the finish suffix. Among peers of similar face geometry, the Trimco 3999 is a 6 inch corner mount rounded end flushbolt if you are matching an existing Trimco specification instead.
