Ives IVE-602-85-600 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Ives 602 continuous hinge hold a 300 lb door?
Yes, and that is the ceiling without frame reinforcing. The 602 full surface pin and barrel hinge carries doors up to 300 pounds unreinforced, and up to 600 pounds when the frame is reinforced. It is rated for doors up to 48 inches wide. If your leaf is heavier than 300 pounds, plan the reinforcing into the opening before the hinge goes on.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand continuous hinge for my door?
Neither. The Ives 602 is non-handed, so one part number covers both left and right hand openings. That is the practical reason property managers and MRO buyers stock it: one hinge on the shelf covers every door swing in the building instead of two.
3) Does a full surface continuous hinge need the door or frame mortised?
No routing or mortising. The 602 mounts flush to the face of the door and frame with no inset, which is why it is the usual pick for retrofits: you are not machining an existing door or frame edge to take it. It works on both bevel edge and square edge doors. Full mortise geared hinges, like the Pemko FM Series, go into a machined edge instead and suit new openings or doors already prepped for one.
4) Can I use the Ives 602 on a 52 inch wide door?
No. The 602 is rated to a 48 inch maximum door width. Past that, the leverage on the leaf exceeds what the hinge is rated to carry and you need a hinge specified for the wider opening. Within 48 inches, it handles up to 300 pounds unreinforced.
5) What is the difference between the Ives 602 continuous hinge and the Pemko DFS83HD1 full surface hinge?
Both are full surface continuous hinges, but they use different hinge mechanisms. The Ives 602 is a pin and barrel continuous hinge in steel, non-handed, rated for doors up to 48 inches wide and 300 pounds without reinforcing. The Pemko DFS83HD1 is a modular full surface heavy duty geared continuous hinge in dark bronze aluminum, Grade 1, and is specified for 1 3/4 inch door thickness. If the door is 1 3/4 inch and you want a geared aluminum hinge in dark bronze, the DFS83HD1 covers that; if you want steel with a nylon self-lubricating split bearing on a 1/4 inch pin, the 602 is the pin and barrel design.
6) The frame is prepped for a mortise hinge, not a surface-applied one. What continuous hinge works instead of the Ives 602?
The Ives 602 is a full surface hinge, mounted flush to the face of the door and frame with no inset, so it will not drop into a mortise prep. For a mortised opening, the Pemko FM Series is a full mortise continuous geared hinge and is offered with a PemKonnect modular option. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is another full mortise continuous geared hinge, 83 inches, heavy duty and Grade 3. Confirm the existing frame and door prep depth before ordering either, since mortise and full surface hinges are not interchangeable in the same prep.
7) What screws come with the Ives 602 hinge, or do I need to buy fasteners separately?
Mounting hardware is in the box: ten 1/2 inch self drilling, self tapping screws for hollow metal, ten 1 inch wood screws for wood doors and frames, plus the cover clips. So you get fasteners for either substrate in the same package. On a heavy leaf running toward the 600 pound reinforced rating, the frame reinforcing is your responsibility, not part of the hinge.
8) Pin and barrel versus geared continuous hinge, which should I use?
The 602 is a pin and barrel type: a 1/4 inch diameter pin riding in nylon self lubricating split bearings, steel construction. It behaves like a very long butt hinge running the full door height, and it is a straightforward swap on existing openings because it surface mounts. Geared continuous hinges, such as the Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect Grade 1 or the aluminum DFS83HD1 full surface, run a gear track instead and are commonly specified in aluminum for exterior and high cycle traffic. If your spec calls out a graded geared hinge, the 602 is not that part.
9) Does the Ives 602 continuous hinge meet ANSI/BHMA for continuous hinges?
The 602 is built to ANSI 156.26, the continuous hinge standard, and it is a commercial grade product rather than a residential one. That is the reference a spec writer or facility buyer is usually looking for on a hinge schedule.
10) Which continuous hinge stops doors from sagging on a high traffic opening?
Sag comes from load concentrated at two or three butt hinge points. The 602 carries the leaf along the full height of the frame, so the weight spreads out instead of tearing at hinge pockets, and the pin and barrel design closes the gap at the hinge edge that pinches fingers. That is why it turns up on school, healthcare and multi tenant doors that cycle all day. Steel body, nylon self lubricating bearings, so there is no periodic greasing.
11) I have an 84 inch tall door. Which Ives 602 length do I order?
Take the 85 inch and cut it down. The 602 is supplied in 83, 85, 95 and 120 inch lengths and is designed for custom cut lengths, so you size the next length up to the leaf rather than forcing a stock size to fit. A continuous hinge is normally run just short of the full door height.
12) Will a steel continuous hinge work on an exterior door, or should I use aluminum?
The 602 is steel, which is the normal choice for interior commercial openings and hollow metal. Where an exterior or wash down opening argues for aluminum, the Pemko DFS83HD1 PemKonnect is a full surface heavy duty geared continuous hinge in dark bronze aluminum, Grade 1, at 83 inches, listed for 1 3/4 inch doors. Both are full surface, so either one surface mounts without machining the door edge.
13) Is a geared continuous hinge the same thing as the Ives 602 pin and barrel hinge?
No. The Ives 602 is a pin and barrel continuous hinge, which uses a 1/4 inch diameter pin running through a knuckle with a nylon self-lubricating split bearing. The Pemko CFM/DFM, CFM83-HD3, DFS83HD1 and FM Series are continuous geared hinges, where the two leaves mesh through a gear channel and are typically covered by a cap. They occupy the same place on the opening but are different mechanisms with different mounting hardware, so do not treat one as a drop-in for the other without checking the prep.
14) I need a 120 inch continuous hinge for a tall door. Which one covers that length?
The Ives 602 is offered in a 120 inch length, part number 602-120-600, alongside 83, 85 and 95 inch. Among the geared alternatives, the Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series lists 83 inch and 95 inch lengths, and the CFM83-HD3 and DFS83HD1 are each 83 inch. The 602 is non-handed and can be cut to a custom length, so a tall opening or an odd height is handled from the 120 inch stick.
15) We standardize hardware across a portfolio and need one hinge that fits both left and right hand doors. Which continuous hinge does that?
The Ives 602 is non-handed, so a single part number covers left and right hand openings, and it takes both bevel and square edge doors with flush, no-inset mounting. That reduces the count of stocked part numbers across a building. If some of the openings are mortise prepped rather than surface, the Pemko FM Series is the full mortise continuous geared hinge to pair with it, and the Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series is a modular Grade 1 geared hinge for openings where a sectional hinge is preferred.
16) What is the difference between the Pemko CFM83-HD3 and the CFM/DFM series if the Ives 602 does not fit my opening?
Both are Pemko continuous geared hinges, but they differ in grade and mounting. The CFM83-HD3 is an 83 inch heavy duty full mortise hinge at Grade 3, and it requires Firepins on 3-hour fire rated doors. The CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series is Grade 1 and modular, with 83 inch and 95 inch length options. Choose by the frame prep and the grade your specification calls for; both are geared hinges rather than the pin and barrel construction of the Ives 602.
