Ives 7215PTINT26DTW4LH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is an intermediate pivot for, and do I still need top and bottom pivots?
An intermediate pivot is a support point in between the top and bottom pivots, not a replacement for them. On a tall or heavy offset hung door it carries part of the load and keeps the door tracking true. The Ives 7215 intermediate pivot is meant to be installed with a top pivot and a bottom pivot (or floor closer) already in the opening.
2) Will the Ives 7215 pivot work on a center hung door?
No. The 7215 is built for offset hung doors with a 3/4 inch offset, meaning the pivot point sits off the door edge rather than under the centerline of the door. A center hung opening needs center hung pivots instead. Check what your existing top and bottom pivots are before ordering the intermediate.
3) What does the 4-wire configuration on this Ives pivot actually do?
It carries power and signal through the pivot point, so you can run an electrified lock, strike or monitoring device on a door hung on pivots without a separate power transfer or an electric hinge. Four conductors is enough for one electrified function plus a return, or a function and a monitor circuit, depending on how the device is wired. Confirm your device's conductor count matches before you pull wire.
4) I need to electrify a door but it swings on butt hinges, not pivots. What should I use instead?
An electrified pivot only helps on an offset hung door. If your door hangs on standard butt hinges, use an electric transfer hinge in the same size as what is there: the Command Access ETH-BB68 is a heavy duty 5 knuckle energy transfer hinge, and the ETH-CB70 is a 3 knuckle standard weight version. If you also need door position monitoring, the Command Access ETM-BB68 has an integrated door position switch. The BEST CECB179-12C is a full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect when you need more conductors than four.
5) What can carry 4-wire power through a mortised butt hinge instead of an offset pivot?
The Ives 7215 intermediate pivot transfers power at the pivot point on an offset hung door, so it only suits a door already hung on pivots. If the door is hung on standard full mortise butt hinges, the Stanley Security CECB1900R54L is a three knuckle concealed bearing concealed conductor architectural hinge in steel full mortise, standard weight, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square corner, left-handed, with the same 4-wire configuration. That swaps the transfer point from the pivot to a hinge leaf without changing how the door is hung.
6) What should I use if 4 wires are not enough conductors for the electrified hardware on the door?
The Ives 7215 intermediate pivot is built with a 4-wire configuration, which covers a lock or strike plus one monitoring or signal circuit. For openings that need more conductors, the BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect. Note the BEST unit is a full mortise hinge rather than an offset pivot, so the door has to be prepped for butt hinges.
7) I need door position monitoring as well as power transfer. What are my options?
The Ives 7215 intermediate pivot carries power through a 4-wire run and provides intermediate support between the top and bottom pivots; it does not include a position switch. Command Access offers monitor versions of its energy transfer hardware: the ETM-BB68 is an energy transfer monitor hinge with an integrated door position switch in a heavy duty ETM 5 Series, and the ETM-CB70 is a 3 knuckle steel base medium duty version with door position sensing. Both are hinges, so the door needs butt hinge prep rather than offset pivot prep.
8) Do I need to plan wiring access before installing this pivot?
Yes. Mount it in the specified intermediate location with clearance left for wiring access and future service, route the four conductors per the wiring diagram, and kill power before you start. Wire gauge and connectors have to suit the device you are feeding, and the run gets tested for both normal door operation and electrical continuity once power is back on.
9) Is a double acting pivot a substitute for this intermediate pivot?
No. The BEST DAP-3 is a heavy duty double acting pivot for commercial interior doors, meaning the door swings both directions, and it carries no electrical conductors. The Ives 7215 is an intermediate pivot with a 3/4 inch offset and a 4-wire run, used to add support between the top and bottom pivots on a single-direction offset hung door. Specify by the swing the opening needs and whether wiring has to pass through the pivot.
10) If the opening does not need electrified hardware, what is the simpler commercial option?
Where no power has to reach the door, mechanical commercial hinges cover the opening without wiring work. The Hager BB1168 is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge, and the Stanley FBB191 in 4.5 by 4.5 is a 5-knuckle full mortise standard weight hinge rated heavy duty. The Ives 7215 pivot is specified when the door is offset hung and a 4-wire path through the pivot is required.
11) Is this pivot rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The 7215 is catalogued for commercial use and typical applications are office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, industrial facilities, government buildings and multi-tenant residential. It is not a residential-duty item.
12) What finish is the Ives 7215 intermediate pivot and will it match my other door hardware?
Satin chrome. It reads as a brushed silver tone and sits alongside satin chrome levers, closers and exit devices without standing out. On an offset hung door the intermediate pivot is largely hidden at the jamb edge anyway, so an exact match to adjacent trim is rarely critical.
13) Does a pivot-reinforced hinge do the same job as this intermediate pivot?
They address different things. The BEST CB1969R is a heavy duty concealed bearing pivot-reinforced hinge, which reinforces a hinge leaf for heavy door loads; the Ives 7215 is a separate intermediate pivot that mounts between the top and bottom pivots of an offset hung door and also passes 4 conductors. If the door is hung on pivots and needs power at the leaf, the 7215 is the correct part.
14) Will a residential hinge work in place of this pivot on an apartment corridor door?
No. Options such as the Delaney 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 bulk steel residential interior hinges with 5/8 inch radius or the Emtek 91013 residential plain bearing hinges in 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 plated steel are residential-duty butt hinges with no electrical path. The Ives 7215 intermediate pivot is a commercial part for offset hung doors and carries a 4-wire run, which is what corridor doors with electrified locks and pivot hanging require.
