Ives IVE-600-83-600 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much door weight can the Ives 600 continuous hinge carry?
The 600 Series steel full mortise continuous hinge carries doors up to 300 pounds with no frame reinforcing, and up to 600 pounds when the frame is reinforced. That covers most hollow metal and solid core commercial doors. If you are hanging a heavy lead-lined or clad door above 300 pounds, plan on the reinforcing before you order.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the Ives 600 hinge?
No handing to specify. The 600 Series is non-handed, so the same hinge works on a left or right hand opening and you can stock one part for a whole building. It also takes both bevel edge and square edge doors.
3) Can the Ives 600 continuous hinge be used on a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The 600 Series carries UL 10C approval at 3 hours and meets ANSI 156.26, so it is usable on rated openings in stairwells, corridors and cross-corridor pairs. That is the rating an institutional spec normally calls for on a continuous hinge.
4) Is the Ives 600 a full mortise hinge, and what does that mean for my door prep?
Full mortise, so it mounts into the edge of the door and the rabbet of the frame rather than screwing onto the face. That gives a concealed look when the door is closed, and it means the door and frame have to be prepped for it. If your existing door edge cannot be routed, a full surface hinge is the alternative, for example the Pemko DFS83HD1 PemKonnect full surface geared hinge in 83 inch for 1-3/4 inch doors.
5) What is the difference between a pin and barrel continuous hinge like the Ives 600 and a geared continuous hinge like the Pemko FM Series?
Both run the full height of the door and distribute weight along the entire frame edge instead of concentrating it at three or four butt hinge locations, but they carry that load differently. The Ives 600 is a pin and barrel design: a 1/4 inch diameter pin running through interlocking knuckles with a nylon self-lubricating, medical grade split bearing. The Pemko FM Series is a full mortise continuous geared hinge, where meshed gear teeth under a cap channel carry the pivot action. Both are full mortise, so both mortise into the door edge and frame rebate rather than surface mounting. For a locksmith or contractor pulling an existing continuous hinge, the practical point is that the two are not interchangeable in an existing prep - a geared hinge and a pin and barrel hinge cut different pockets, so match the type to the prep already in the opening or plan on reworking it.
6) The door is surface applied and cannot be mortised - what continuous hinge works instead of the Ives 600?
The Ives 600 is a full mortise hinge, so it requires a mortise cut into both the door edge and the frame. If the opening cannot take that prep - a door already hung with no mortise, or an aluminum frame you do not want to machine - the Pemko DFS83HD1 is a full surface heavy duty geared continuous hinge in 83 inch length, aluminum, dark bronze, Grade 1, for a 1 3/4 inch door thickness. Full surface means the hinge leaves mount to the face of the door and the face of the frame, so no routing is needed. Note the substrate difference as well: the Ives 600 is steel, the DFS83HD1 is aluminum.
7) For a 3-hour fire rated opening, how does the Ives 600 compare to the Pemko CFM83-HD3?
The Ives 600 carries UL 10C 3-hour fire rating approval and meets ANSI 156.26, and it ships with the screws needed for install - 10 self drilling self tapping screws and 10 wood screws. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is a Grade 3 heavy duty full mortise continuous geared hinge that requires Firepins for 3-hour fire rated doors, meaning the fire rating on that hinge depends on ordering and installing that separate component. For an institutional buyer standardizing a fire rated stairwell or corridor set, that is the deciding detail: with the 600 the 3-hour approval is part of the hinge, with the CFM83-HD3 you add Firepins to the order.
8) Which continuous hinge should I standardize on for a high traffic commercial door - the Ives 600 or the Pemko CFM83-HD3?
They sit at different certification levels. The Ives 600 is a commercial steel hinge meeting ANSI 156.26 Grade 1, rated for doors up to 300 pounds without frame reinforcing and 600 pounds with reinforcing, up to 48 inch door width, with a nylon self-lubricating medical grade split bearing on a 1/4 inch pin. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is a Grade 3 heavy duty full mortise continuous geared hinge at 83 inches. The Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series is Grade 1 if you want a geared hinge at the same grade level as the 600. For a property manager matching a fleet of entry or corridor doors, the weight and width numbers are usually what decides it - a wide, heavy door pushing toward 48 inches and 300 pounds is squarely what the 600 is built for.
9) Should I use a pin and barrel continuous hinge or a geared continuous hinge?
A pin and barrel hinge like the Ives 600 runs on a 1/4 inch pin with nylon self-lubricating split bearings down the full length, so it looks and behaves like a butt hinge stretched the height of the door and takes no lubrication service. A geared continuous hinge, such as the Pemko FM Series full mortise, drives on a gear channel instead. Both mortise into the door and frame edge and both hide the gap that pinches fingers. Pick pin and barrel when you want bearing action and a cuttable, non-handed part; pick geared where the spec on the drawing calls out a geared hinge by name.
10) Do I get mounting screws with the Ives 600 hinge or do I have to buy them separately?
Fasteners are in the box: ten 1/2 inch self drilling, self tapping screws for the hollow metal side and ten 1 inch wood screws. If you want tamper resistant fixings instead, the 600 is offered with security mounting hardware in SECHM, SECWDHM, SECWDWD and WD configurations depending on whether the door and frame are hollow metal or wood.
11) Will a continuous hinge stop my heavy doors from sagging?
That is the main reason to change from butt hinges. Three or four butts concentrate the whole door load at three or four points on the frame; the 600 Series spreads it along the full height of the jamb, which is what keeps the top corner from dropping and the door from dragging on the strike. On a fleet of high traffic openings that is fewer callbacks for doors that will not latch.
12) I need to run power through the hinge for an electrified lock - does the Ives 600 do that?
Yes. The Ives 600 is offered with EPT electric power transfer and TW8 electrical through-wire options, plus CON for Allegion Connect and HT hospital tip, and security mounting hardware in SECHM, SECWDHM, SECWDWD and WD configurations. That matters when you are comparing against the Pemko geared hinges - the CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series, the FM Series, and the full surface DFS83HD1 are catalogued here on their mechanical configuration, so if the opening needs power transfer through the hinge itself, spec the 600 with EPT or TW8 rather than assuming a geared equivalent covers it.
13) I need a modular continuous hinge that ships in sections - is the Ives 600 that, or is there another option?
The Ives 600 is a one-piece steel pin and barrel hinge, non-handed, that can be custom cut to length in the field. If what you need is a factory modular hinge that assembles from sections, look at the Pemko PemKonnect line: the CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series is a Grade 1 continuous geared hinge in 83 inch and 95 inch lengths, the FM Series is offered with a PemKonnect modular option, and the DFS83HD1 is a PemKonnect modular full surface hinge. Modular sections matter mostly for freight and for getting a long hinge into a finished space; if that is not a constraint, the one-piece 600 covers the same openings, including 120 inch.
14) Can I use an aluminum continuous hinge in place of the steel Ives 600?
Not automatically - substrate changes what the hinge is suited to. The Ives 600 is steel, rated to 300 pounds without reinforcing and 600 pounds with, sized to a 48 inch maximum door width. The Pemko DFS83HD1 is dark bronze aluminum, Grade 1, full surface, for a 1 3/4 inch door. Aluminum is the usual choice on aluminum storefront and where a finished bronze face is wanted; steel is the usual choice under heavy wood or hollow metal doors. A glass front installer working an aluminum entrance is more likely on the aluminum full surface hinge; a contractor hanging a heavy hollow metal door in a mortised frame is on the steel 600.
15) Is the Ives 600 hinge a good choice for a school or hospital corridor door?
It fits that use. Closing the gap between door and frame removes the pinch point along the hinge edge, which is why these go on classroom, patient room and daycare doors. The bearings are nylon self-lubricating medical grade, so there is no greasing schedule, and the 3-hour UL 10C approval covers rated corridor and stair doors.
16) Is the Ives 600 hinge rated for commercial use or is it a residential hinge?
Commercial. Steel construction, ANSI 156.26 compliance and a 300 pound bare door capacity put it in office, retail, warehouse, government and multi-tenant residential service rather than light interior residential work.
