Ives IVE-711CS-83-713 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a swing clear continuous hinge like the Ives 711CS actually do for a door opening?
A swing clear hinge moves the door completely out of the opening when it swings back, so the full clear width of the frame is usable. That is why the 711CS shows up on healthcare and institutional corridors where gurney and wheelchair clearance is the issue. It is a pin and barrel continuous hinge, so the load is carried along the whole height of the frame instead of on three or four butts, which keeps a heavy door from sagging.
2) How heavy a door will the Ives 711CS hinge carry?
Up to 300 pounds as installed, and up to 600 pounds when the door and frame are reinforced. Door width is capped at 48 inches, so a wide, heavy slab past that width needs a different solution regardless of the weight number.
3) What frame face do I need to install the Ives 711CS swing clear hinge?
Minimum frame face is 2-11/16 inches, with a 1/16 inch door inset. If the existing frame face is narrower than that, the 711CS will not mount correctly and you need a different continuous hinge type.
4) Can the Ives 711CS be used on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 711CS is tested and approved to UL 10C for a 3-hour fire rating, and it is certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1. That covers 3-hour rated openings in healthcare, education and government work.
5) My spec calls for a 3-hour rated continuous hinge and I was quoted a Pemko CFM83-HD3. Is that the same thing as the Ives 711CS?
Not the same. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is a Grade 3 full mortise geared hinge and requires Firepins for 3-hour fire rated doors. The Ives 711CS is Grade 1 to ANSI 156.26 and is approved to UL 10C for 3-hour openings as supplied, with no separate pin kit called out. If the spec reads Grade 1, the CFM83-HD3 does not meet it.
6) What is the closest Grade 1 continuous hinge alternative to the Ives 711CS if I need a geared hinge instead of pin and barrel?
The Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect series is a Grade 1 continuous geared hinge offered in 83 inch and 95 inch lengths, which matches two of the lengths the Ives 711CS is built in. The difference is the mechanism and the swing: the 711CS is a pin and barrel continuous hinge in stainless steel with a swing clear geometry and a decorative cover over the knuckle, while the PemKonnect CFM/DFM is a geared hinge in a modular format. Both carry Grade 1 credentials - the 711CS to ANSI 156.26 - so on an opening where the spec calls for a Grade 1 continuous hinge and does not dictate the mechanism, either can be written in. If the opening actually needs swing clear to widen the clear passage, stay with the 711CS.
7) Is the Pemko CFM83-HD3 an acceptable substitute for the Ives 711CS on a 3-hour fire rated opening?
They are not equivalent on that opening. The Ives 711CS is tested and approved to UL 10C for 3-hour fire rated door applications as supplied. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is an 83 inch full mortise continuous geared hinge whose record states that firepins are required for 3-hour fire rated doors, so it needs that added component to serve the same condition. The CFM83-HD3 is also a Grade 3 hinge, where the 711CS is certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1. On a fire rated commercial opening where you want the hinge to stand on its own, the 711CS is the direct answer; the CFM83-HD3 suits lighter duty full mortise work.
8) My frame face is too narrow for a mortise continuous hinge - what do I use instead of the Ives 711CS?
The Ives 711CS needs a 2-11/16 inch minimum frame face, so a narrow frame rules it out. For that condition look at a full surface continuous hinge such as the Pemko DFS83HD1 PemKonnect modular full surface heavy duty geared hinge, which mounts to the face of the door and frame rather than into the hinge pocket. It is a Grade 1 hinge in dark bronze aluminum for 1-3/4 inch doors at 83 inches long. Note the trade: the 711CS is stainless steel, non-handed, and carries a decorative cover over the knuckle, and the full surface mounting gives a different look on the opening.
9) Do I have to order the Ives 711CS by hand, left or right?
No. The 711CS is non-handed, so one part number covers both hands. You specify length and finish only.
10) Is there a Grade 1 continuous hinge alternative to the Ives 711CS in 83 and 95 inch lengths?
Yes, the Pemko CFM/DFM PemKonnect Series is a Grade 1 continuous geared modular hinge offered in 83 and 95 inch lengths, matching two of the four lengths the 711CS comes in. It is geared rather than pin and barrel, and it is not a swing clear design, so it will not give you the extra clear opening width the 711CS provides.
11) What finishes can I get on the Ives 711CS to match the rest of my openings?
Nine finishes on every length: 441 satin stainless anodized, 600 primed for painting, 628 clear anodized aluminum, 688 satin brass anodized, 709 satin bronze anodized, 710 dark bronze anodized, 711 black anodized, 712 bright chrome anodized and 713 satin chrome anodized. The 600 primed option is the one to take when the hinge has to disappear into a painted frame.
12) What is the difference between the Ives 711CS and the Pemko FM Series continuous hinge?
The Pemko FM Series is a full mortise continuous geared hinge, available with a PemKonnect modular option that lets the hinge ship in sections. The Ives 711CS is a pin and barrel continuous hinge in stainless steel with a swing clear profile, a patented decorative cover over the knuckle, XY adjustability for alignment at install, and nylon winged bearings. Both mortise into the door and frame, but only the 711CS moves the door clear of the opening to recover clear width, which is the reason it gets specified on healthcare and accessible routes.
13) I need a continuous hinge for a heavy 300 lb commercial door - does the Pemko CFM83-HD3 handle it or should I stay with the Ives 711CS?
The Ives 711CS is rated for doors up to 300 pounds, or 600 pounds with reinforcing, and is certified to ANSI 156.26 Grade 1 in stainless steel. The Pemko CFM83-HD3 is a Grade 3 full mortise continuous geared hinge, a lighter duty classification than Grade 1. For a 300 pound door on a commercial opening, the 711CS is the one specified to that weight; the CFM83-HD3 fits openings where a Grade 3 full mortise geared hinge is what the schedule calls for.
14) Is the Ives 711CS suitable for an exterior or wash-down opening?
The 711CS is stainless steel, which holds up better than aluminum in wet, coastal or frequently cleaned environments such as kitchens and healthcare. It is a commercial-rated product, not a residential one.
15) Can I order the Ives 711CS in sections like the Pemko modular hinges?
The modular, sectional approach is a Pemko PemKonnect feature - it appears on the CFM/DFM Grade 1 geared series, the FM Series full mortise hinge, and the DFS83HD1 full surface hinge. The Ives 711CS is supplied as a continuous length, ordered by door height in 83 inch, 85 inch, 95 inch and 120 inch, in finishes including 628 clear anodized aluminum, 710 dark bronze anodized and 630-style satin stainless 441. If shipping or handling length is the constraint on your job, a PemKonnect modular hinge addresses that; if you need swing clear and a covered knuckle, order the 711CS in the length that matches the door.
