Ives 7222 SET US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How heavy a door will the Ives 7222 offset pivot set hold?
Up to 200 pounds. The Ives 7222 is a heavy duty offset pivot set built around that number, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07162. Past 200 pounds you are outside what it is meant to carry, and the Dormakaba 7471K side load floor pivot set is the one listed for wood doors or any door weighing in excess of 200 pounds. Weigh or calculate the leaf before you commit, because on a pivot the whole load goes through two points rather than three or four hinges.
2) What do I actually order for an Ives 7222 pivot, the whole set or the halves?
Four choices. 7222S is the top and bottom base set, which is what a new opening takes. 7222T is the top base on its own and 7222B is the bottom base on its own, for replacing one damaged half of an existing 7222 installation. 7222INT is the intermediate pivot, listed for use with the 7212, 7212V and 7222. Handing is a required selection on all of them, so you specify Left Hand or Right Hand as well as the finish.
3) Is the Ives 7222 offset pivot fire rated?
Fire rated, yes. The 7222 is UL 10C tested and approved for 20 minute fire rating applications, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07162. That matters when you are choosing between pivot brands on a rated opening, because plenty of pivots are not: the Hager 253 reinforcing pivot, the Hager 497 bottom pivot hinge and the Kaba Ilco IP-10, IP-12, IP-22 and IL-OP-10 Series pivots all carry no fire rating. If the opening is a 20 minute rated assembly, the 7222 is the one of that group that belongs in it.
4) Can I use the Ives 7222 offset pivot on aluminum storefront doors?
No. The 7222 is set up for standard commercial doors, with a 1-3/4 inch minimum thickness and a 1/8 inch bevel in 2 inches in the prep. Aluminum storefront stiles are a different animal. For those, the Kaba Ilco IP-10, IP-22 and IP-12 Series intermediate pivots are made for aluminum doors and frames, and the IL-OP-10 Series is a 1/8 inch recessed Arch and Vistawall pivot set. Those Ilco series are standard duty and carry no fire rating, so do not treat them as a substitute on a rated or heavy opening.
5) Do I need to know the door hand before ordering an Ives 7222 pivot?
Handing is required and there is no universal version. The 7222 is a handed pivot and you choose Right Hand or Left Hand at the order, on the set and on the individual top and bottom pieces alike. Stand outside the opening, on the side the door swings away from: hinge or pivot on your right is right hand, on your left is left hand. Get it wrong and the pivot will not take the door.
6) Will an Ives 7222 pivot set work on an aluminum storefront door?
The Ives 7222 is a 3/4 inch offset brass pivot set recommended for a 1-3/4 inch minimum door thickness with a 1/8 inch bevel in 2 inches, which is standard door prep rather than aluminum extrusion prep. For aluminum doors and frames, the Kaba Ilco IP-10, IP-12 and IP-22 series intermediate pivots are built for that construction, and the Kaba Ilco IL-OP-10 series is a 1/8 inch recessed Arch and Vistawall pivot set. All four of those Kaba Ilco series are listed as standard duty and not fire rated.
7) The door is fire rated. Which offset pivots carry a fire rating?
The Ives 7222 is UL 10C tested for a 20 minute fire rating. Among the comparable pivots, the Dormakaba 75120 top pivot, the Dormakaba 75220 intermediate pivot, the Dormakaba 15220 intermediate pivot and the Dormakaba 7471K floor pivot set are all listed as fire rated. The Hager 497 bottom pivot, the Hager 253 reinforcing pivot and the Kaba Ilco IP-10, IP-12 and IP-22 intermediate pivots are listed as not fire rated, which puts them on non-rated openings.
8) Can an intermediate pivot be used in place of the top or bottom pivot on a 3/4 inch offset hung door?
No. The Ives 7222 is a top and bottom pivot set, with a 7222T top header mount and a 7222B bottom base carrying the door and the 200 pound load. An intermediate pivot such as the Dormakaba 75220, a 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise intermediate pivot, is a third point added between the top and bottom on a tall or heavy leaf, so it supplements the set rather than replacing either end of it.
9) The frame is prepped for a 1-1/2 inch offset pivot. What matches that prep?
The Ives 7222 is a 3/4 inch offset pivot set, so it follows a 3/4 inch offset hung layout and will not land on 1-1/2 inch offset prep. The Dormakaba 15220 is a 1-1/2 inch offset brass intermediate pivot in satin chrome, supplied right hand, and it is listed as heavy duty and fire rated. For 3/4 inch offset prep, the Dormakaba 75220 intermediate pivot and the Dormakaba 75120 full mortise top pivot are both 3/4 inch offset hung.
10) Do I need an intermediate pivot with the Ives 7222 on a tall door?
Tall or heavy leaves usually get one, and Ives covers it: the 7222INT intermediate pivot is listed for use with the 7212, 7212V and 7222, so it drops into the same family rather than mixing brands. An intermediate carries part of the load at a mid point instead of leaving it all at the head and the floor. Dormakaba's 75220 is another 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise intermediate in heavy duty. The Dormakaba 15220 is also an intermediate but at 1-1/2 inch offset, which will not line up with a 3/4 inch offset installation.
11) How much can you adjust an Ives 7222 pivot after the door is hung?
3/16 inch of vertical adjustment, with a positive locking mechanism so it stays where you set it. That is enough to bring the leaf up off a dragging threshold or level a gap at the head, and the lock keeps a heavy door from settling back down. 3/16 inch is the whole range, so if the floor or header prep is off by more than that, fix the prep rather than trying to take it out of the pivot.
12) The bottom pivot on our door is worn out. Can I buy just the bottom half?
Yes, the 7222B bottom base is available on its own, brass and heavy duty, rated with the rest of the 7222 family for doors up to 200 pounds. It has to match the existing top pivot at 3/4 inch offset and the same hand. If the opening is a full mortise bottom pivot rather than a base plate mount, the Hager 497 is a heavy duty forged bronze bottom pivot hinge with a ball bearing in full mortise, though it carries no fire rating, so it is off the table on a rated door.
13) Should I hang a heavy commercial door on pivots or keep the butt hinges?
Pivots move the door's weight into the floor and the header instead of loading the hinge jamb, which is how the Ives 7222 carries a 200 pound leaf without working the frame. The trade off is prep: offset hung means cutting the header and setting a base plate at the floor, so it is a decision made at the opening, not a swap. If you want to keep the existing butt hinges and just stop the frame from taking a beating, the Hager 253 is a full surface reinforcing pivot for 4-1/2 inch wide hinges on 1-3/4 inch doors. It is not fire rated, so it is not an option on a rated opening.
14) I only need to replace the top pivot on a 3/4 inch offset hung door. What are the options?
The Ives 7222 is sold as a 7222T top base on its own as well as a 7222S top and bottom set, so the header component can be ordered by itself in the same 3/4 inch offset geometry and the same finish as the bottom. The Dormakaba 75120 is also a 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise standard top pivot and is fire rated, though it is listed as standard duty where the Ives 7222 is heavy duty for doors up to 200 pounds.
15) Is the Hager 253 reinforcing pivot an alternative to an offset pivot set?
It is a different job. The Hager 253 is a full surface reinforcing pivot for 4-1/2 inch wide hinges in a zinc plated finish, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it reinforces a door that is already hung on hinges. The Ives 7222 is the top and bottom pivot pair that hangs the door itself on a 3/4 inch offset, carrying up to 200 pounds, so a door swinging on the 7222 has no hinges for the 253 to reinforce.
16) Is there a pivot that does not have to be ordered left hand or right hand?
The Ives 7222 is handed and is ordered LH or RH to suit the swing. The Kaba Ilco IP-12 series intermediate pivots are non handed, so one part covers either swing, but they are intermediate pivots for aluminum doors and frames and are listed as standard duty and not fire rated. The Dormakaba 15220 intermediate pivot is supplied right hand, so it is specified by swing in the same way the Ives 7222 is.
17) What finishes does the Ives 7222 pivot come in for matching the hardware already in the building?
Thirteen finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 643E aged bronze, 689 aluminum painted, 691 bronze painted, 695 dark bronze and 706 brass painted. Those leading numbers are the BHMA finish codes, so match to the code stamped on the hardware you already have rather than to the name, since two makers describe the same 626 differently. The base metal underneath is brass on all of them.
