Ives 7230F SET SP28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Ives 7230F pivot approved for a 3 hour fire rated door assembly?
The 7230F offset pivot is fire rated to 3 hours and UL 10C tested, and it's certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07162. That covers it for fire rated openings in schools, hospitals, and government buildings where the door assembly has to hold a 3 hour label. Non-rated pivots in the same offset style will not.
2) Do I have to order the Ives 7230F left hand or right hand?
The main 7230F pivot is non-handed, so one part number covers either swing and you don't need to know the hand to order the top or bottom. Handing only comes up on the intermediate pivot: that one is ordered as 7230FINT LH or 7230FINT RH. So if your door needs an intermediate, get the hand right on that piece.
3) Does the Ives 7230F come as a complete set or do I buy the top and bottom separately?
Both ways. Order 7230FS for the top and bottom base as a set, or buy the pieces individually as 7230FT top base and 7230FB bottom base if you're only replacing one end. There is also a 7230FINT intermediate pivot, sold on its own and handed left or right, which fits 7230F through 7237F. For a new install on a tall or heavy leaf, the set plus an intermediate is the usual combination.
4) Can I use a Kaba Ilco IP-10 or IP-12 intermediate pivot on a fire-rated opening in place of the Ives 7230F?
No. The Kaba Ilco IP-10 Series and IP-12 Series are intermediate pivot hinges for aluminum doors and frames, both standard duty and not fire rated. The Ives 7230F is fire rated with a 3 hour fire rated time and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07162, which is what a fire-rated door assembly requires. If the opening carries a fire label, the 7230F or another fire rated pivot is the correct choice; the IP-10 and IP-12 belong on non-rated aluminum storefront openings.
5) Which 3/4 inch offset top pivot should I use on a lighter door instead of a 1000 lb heavy-duty set?
The Dormakaba 75120 is a 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise standard top pivot, fire rated, at a standard duty level. It matches the 3/4 inch offset hung preparation the Ives 7230F uses but is built for standard duty rather than the 7230F's heavy duty rating and door weights up to 1,000 lbs. For an entry leaf well under that weight the 75120 covers the top point; where the leaf is heavy or the traffic is punishing, the 7230F set is the heavy duty answer and includes the bottom base plate as well.
6) Can I adjust door height after the 7230F pivots are installed?
There is 3/16 inch of vertical adjustment with a positive locking mechanism, so you can set the leaf height and undercut clearance after hanging and lock it there. That's the range you have to work with, so the floor and header prep still has to be close to template. It is not enough travel to correct a badly out of level opening.
7) Offset pivot or center hung pivot for a heavy commercial door?
The 7230F is offset hung, meaning the pivot point sits off the door edge and the leaf swings one way, clear of the frame. That is what you want on a heavy fire rated door with a closer and a stop, and it is the common choice on hollow metal entrances. Center hung is for doors that swing both directions, typically with a floor closer. If the drawing calls out offset hung with a 3/4 inch offset, the 7230F matches it.
8) What else could I use instead of the Ives 7230F offset pivot?
If you need the same 3/4 inch offset hung geometry, the Dormakaba 75220 is a 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise intermediate pivot rated heavy duty and fire rated, and the Dormakaba 75120 is a 3/4 inch offset hung full mortise top pivot, though that one is standard duty rather than heavy duty. For a wider offset, the Dormakaba 15220 is a 1-1/2 inch offset right hand intermediate pivot, heavy duty and fire rated, but the offset dimension has to match the rest of the opening so it is not a drop-in for a 3/4 inch layout.
9) Will the 7230F work for a heavy wood door over 200 pounds, or do I need a floor pivot set?
Either can carry it. The 7230F offset pivot set handles up to 1,000 pounds and mounts as a top header and bottom base plate. The Dormakaba 7471K is a side load floor pivot set specifically recommended for wood doors or any door over 200 pounds, heavy duty and fire rated. Side load matters on a job where the leaf has to come out later without disturbing the floor plate, so pick on how the door gets serviced.
10) What do I use for a heavy wood door instead of an offset pivot set?
The Dorma 7471K is a side load floor pivot set recommended for wood doors or any door weighing in excess of 200 pounds, rated heavy duty and fire rated. Side load means the door loads into the floor pivot from the side, which changes the installation sequence and the floor preparation compared with the Ives 7230F, an offset hung set with a bottom base plate mount and a 3/16 inch vertical adjustment. The 7230F is rated for doors up to 1,000 lbs and calls for 1-3/4 inch minimum door thickness. Choose the 7471K where the opening is set up for side load floor pivots; choose the 7230F where the header and floor are prepped for offset hung.
11) What is the difference between the Ives 7230F pivot set and the Hager 253 reinforcing pivot?
They do different jobs. The Hager 253 is a full surface reinforcing pivot for 4-1/2 inch wide hinges in a zinc plated finish, heavy duty and not fire rated, and it is used to back up a door that still hangs on butt hinges. The Ives 7230F is the hanging hardware itself, an offset hung top and bottom pivot set carrying up to 1,000 lbs with 3 hour fire rating in stainless steel. Both list a 1-3/4 inch door thickness figure, but a reinforcing pivot does not replace a pivot set on a pivot-hung opening.
12) I need a non-handed intermediate pivot. Which options avoid calling out a hand?
The Kaba Ilco IP-12 Series intermediate pivots for aluminum doors and frames are non handed, standard duty and not fire rated. On the Ives side the 7230F set itself is non-handed, but the intermediate pivots in the 7230F range are ordered by hand as 7230FINT LH or 7230FINT RH for the 7230F through 7237F range. So if the opening is fire rated you order the Ives intermediate with a hand; if it is a non-rated aluminum door, the IP-12 removes the handing decision.
13) What finishes does the Ives 7230F offset pivot come in?
Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 612 satin bronze, 622 matte black, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, 643E aged bronze, 689 aluminum painted, 691 bronze painted, 695 dark bronze, and 706 brass painted. For matching a run of openings, 630 satin stainless and 689 aluminum painted are the two that blend with most commercial hollow metal and aluminum work. The pivot body is stainless steel with exposed parts made for corrosion resistance, so exterior and washdown areas are fair game.
14) Is the Ives 7230F pivot an electrified or power transfer part?
No, the 7230F is purely mechanical. If the opening needs power to the leaf for an electric lock or exit device, that goes through a separate transfer device, not through this pivot.
15) If I standardize a facility on one heavy-duty fire-rated pivot, what are the finish options compared with the alternatives?
The Ives 7230F is offered in 605 Bright Brass, 612 Satin Bronze, 622 Matte Black, 629 Bright Stainless Steel, 630 Satin Stainless Steel, 643E Aged Bronze, 689 Aluminum Painted, 691 Bronze Painted, 695 Dark Bronze and 706 Brass Painted, over stainless steel construction. Among the heavy duty fire rated comparables, the Dormakaba 15220 is a brass pivot in satin chrome and the Dorma 7471K is satin chrome, each a single finish. For a facility matching a specific architectural finish across many openings, the 7230F finish range covers more of the palette from one model.
