Ives IVE-299EB-7 US32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Ives 299EB rescue strike actually do in a patient restroom?
It lets an inward-swinging door be pushed the other way in an emergency. If a patient collapses against the inside of a bathroom or small utility room door, staff depress the center tong on the 299EB and the door swings out of its normal direction instead of being blocked, and it does that without tearing up the frame. Normal day-to-day operation is unchanged, it works as the stop and strike until the tong is depressed.
2) Which size 299EB do I order, the -7 or the -8?
Pick by frame depth. The 299EB-7 measures 6-3/4 x 2-3/4 inches and goes on a 5-3/4 inch frame. The 299EB-8 measures 7-3/4 x 2-3/4 inches and goes on a 6-3/4 inch frame. Measure the jamb depth before you order, the plate length is what changes between them. Both are supplied in US32D satin stainless.
3) Can I install the Ives 299EB on a door with a butt-hinged opening?
No. The 299EB is an offset hung strike and only works with center hung pivot hardware, specifically the Ives 7253, 7255, 7255J, 7256 and 7259 pivots. On a butt-hinged door there is no pivot geometry for the door to reverse into, so the rescue function will not work. If the opening is hinged, it needs to be re-hung on pivots before this strike is any use.
4) Will the 299EB work with the deadbolt on my patient restroom door?
No, and this is the detail that gets it installed wrong. The 299EB cannot be used with deadbolt applications, or with mortise locks that have a deadlocking auxiliary latch. Either one keeps the door locked into the frame when the tong is depressed, which defeats the rescue function. Spec a latch-only lock or a privacy set without a deadbolt on these openings.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Ives 299EB rescue emergency stop strike from another manufacturer?
Hager's rescue door stop and two way strike plates cover the same emergency bi-directional swing function. The Hager 455 is the 5-3/4 inch center hung version and the Hager 456 is the 6-3/4 inch center hung version, both listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, which matches the door thickness the Ives 299EB is engineered for. The key difference is hang type: the 299EB is an offset hung strike, so on a center hung pivot opening the Hager 455 or 456 is the closer match, while the 299EB suits offset pivot installations.
6) What door thickness does the Ives 299EB rescue strike suit?
It is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the standard commercial leaf thickness. Ives will quote custom sizes through the factory if your opening is something other than that, but the catalogued 299EB-7 and 299EB-8 are both 1-3/4 inch parts.
7) What fasteners come with the Ives 299EB and will they suit a hollow metal frame?
The 299EB ships with 8-32 x 1/2 inch machine screws intended for hollow metal frames, so for a standard HM jamb you tap the frame and mount with what is in the box. Wood or aluminum frames will need fasteners you supply.
8) What is the difference between an offset rescue strike like the 299EB and a center hung rescue stop?
Offset versus center describes where the pivot sits relative to the frame, and the strike has to match. The 299EB is the offset hung version. If your doors are hung on center pivots, you want a center-hung rescue stop and two way strike instead, for example the Hager 455 for a 5-3/4 inch frame or the Hager 456 for a 6-3/4 inch frame, both rated for 1-3/4 inch doors. Hager also makes a 457 for 1/8 inch inset doors. Getting this backwards means the plate will not line up with the door edge.
9) My doors are inset into the frame. Is the 299EB the right rescue strike?
Not necessarily. The 299EB is dimensioned against frame depth, 5-3/4 inch for the -7 and 6-3/4 inch for the -8, and does not address an inset leaf. For doors set in 1/8 inch, the Hager 457 rescue door stop and two way strike is made for that condition and also suits 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Is the Hager 4911 double door strike a substitute for the Ives 299EB?
No. The Hager 4911 is a 4700 Series Grade 1 double door strike for surface vertical rod exit devices, which is a pair-of-doors application on exit hardware. The Ives 299EB is a rescue emergency stop strike that lets a single door swing bi-directionally when a patient is down behind an inward-swinging door, and it works with Ives center hung pivots such as the 7253, 7255, 7255J, 7256 and 7259. They serve different openings and are not interchangeable even though both are strikes for 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) Which rescue strike works on a door with an inset frame condition rather than a flush one?
The Hager 457 rescue door stop and two way strike plate is the one specified for 1/8 inch inset doors, at 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Ives 299EB is instead sized by frame: the 299EB-7 is 6-3/4 x 2-3/4 inches for a 5-3/4 inch frame and the 299EB-8 is 7-3/4 x 2-3/4 inches for a 6-3/4 inch frame, and it is an offset hung part. So the deciding factor is whether your opening has an inset condition or a standard offset pivot frame.
12) For a hospital patient restroom, does the Ives 299EB or the Hager rescue strikes cover the emergency egress requirement?
Both address the same problem of a patient collapsing behind an inward-swinging restroom door. The Ives 299EB is a commercial stainless steel strike meeting ANSI/BHMA A1882, sized 6.75 to 7.75 inches by 2.75 inches, and it is offset hung. The Hager 455 and Hager 456 are center hung rescue door stop and two way strike plates at 5-3/4 inch and 6-3/4 inch respectively. Choose by pivot type first, then by frame width, and note that the 299EB cannot be used with deadbolts or mortise locks having deadlocking auxiliary latches.
13) Is there a template for laying out the 299EB strike prep?
Yes. Ives publishes a DBL 299 EB-7 offset template for this strike, plus companion templates for the AB-7 and RB-7 offset versions and the AS-7, ES-7 and RS-7 center versions if you are mixing types across a floor. Use the offset EB template for the 299EB and the parent pivot's own instructions for the pivot prep.
14) Is the Ives 299EB suitable for a high-humidity hospital bathroom?
The substrate is stainless steel, which holds up to the cleaning chemicals and moisture in patient restrooms and utility closets. It is a commercial-duty part and meets ANSI/BHMA A1882.
15) Overall size of the Ives 299EB stop strike?
The plate runs 6.75 to 7.75 inches by 2.75 inches depending on which size you take, 6-3/4 x 2-3/4 for the 299EB-7 and 7-3/4 x 2-3/4 for the 299EB-8. The 2-3/4 inch dimension is common to both, so only the length changes with frame depth.
