Ives 7237F SET US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Ives 7237F pivot set fire rated, and for how long?
Three hours, UL 10C tested. It is also certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07111, Grade 1. For a hospital, school, or stair opening where the door schedule calls out a 3 hour assembly, the 7237F is a heavy duty pivot that meets that line on the drawing.
2) Do I have to order the Ives 7237F pivot left hand or right hand?
Neither. The 7237F is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager or facilities buyer stocking spares across a building, that means a single shelf item instead of two.
3) What door thickness and bevel does the Ives 7237F offset pivot need?
1-3/4 inch minimum door thickness with a 1/8 inch bevel in 2 inches. 1-3/4 inch is standard commercial door thickness, so most hollow metal and heavy wood leaves qualify, but a 1-3/8 inch interior door is too thin for this pivot.
4) Can I buy just the top pivot or just the bottom pivot for an Ives 7237F, or does it only come as a set?
Both ways. Order 7237FS for the top and bottom base set, 7237FT for the top base alone, 7237FB for the bottom base alone, or 7237FINT for the intermediate pivot that covers the 7230F through 7237F range. If you are replacing one worn bottom pivot on an existing offset hung door, the 7237FB is the piece to order rather than a whole set.
5) Which 3/4 inch offset pivots are fire rated for a 3 hour opening?
The Ives 7237F is a 3/4 inch offset stainless steel top and bottom pivot set with a UL 10C 3 hour fire rating and ANSI/BHMA A156.4 C07111 Grade 1 certification. Among 3/4 inch offset peers, the Dormakaba 75220 intermediate pivot is fire rated and heavy duty, and the Dormakaba 75120 top pivot is fire rated at standard duty. The Kaba Ilco IP-10, IP-12 and IP-22 Series pivots are not fire rated.
6) How much vertical adjustment does the Ives 7237F pivot give me after the door is hung?
3/16 inch of vertical adjustment with a positive locking mechanism. That is your working range for setting the undercut and evening out the head clearance once the leaf is on. It locks where you set it, so a heavy door does not drift the adjustment back out under its own weight. Plan the floor and header prep so the door lands within that 3/16 inch, because there is no more travel than that.
7) Should I use an offset pivot like the Ives 7237F or a center hung pivot?
Offset hung, which is what the 7237F is, swings the door on a point set 3/4 inch off the face, so the leaf swings one direction and clears the frame like a hinged door. That is what you want for a fire rated opening with a closer and a normal single swing. Center hung is for doors that need to swing both ways or sit flush in the opening. If your opening is an aluminum storefront rather than a heavy hollow metal or wood door, the Kaba Ilco IP-10 or IP-12 Series intermediate pivots are built for aluminum doors and frames instead.
8) What floor and header prep does an Ives 7237F offset pivot require?
The bottom is a mortised cement case mount, so the floor has to be prepped to take the case, which on a slab means coordinating it before the finish floor goes down. The top is a header mount into the frame head. Both come off Ives templates, and the door and frame get drilled and routed for the offset pivot before the leaf is hung. Confirm the floor structure can take the 1,750 lb rating you are hanging into it.
9) What is the difference between the Hager 497 bottom pivot and the bottom half of an Ives 7237F set?
The Hager 497 is a heavy duty full mortise bottom pivot hinge with a ball bearing in forged bronze, and it is not fire rated. The Ives 7237F bottom is a mortised cement case mount in stainless steel, and the 7237F carries a 3 hour fire rating. The 7237F bottom is also orderable on its own as the 7237FB bottom base when only the bottom half is being replaced.
10) What should be used instead of the Ives 7237F on a heavy wood door that needs a floor pivot?
The Dorma 7471K is a side load floor pivot set recommended for wood doors or any door weighing in excess of 200 pounds, and it is heavy duty and fire rated. It differs from the Ives 7237F in how the door is carried: the 7471K is a floor pivot set, while the Ives 7237F is an offset hung set with a top header mount and a bottom mortised cement case mount, recommended for 1-3/4 inch minimum door thickness with a 1/8 inch bevel in 2 inches.
11) The door is butt hinged and sagging, not pivot hung. Is an Ives 7237F the fix?
No. The Hager 253 is a full surface reinforcing pivot for 4-1/2 inch wide hinges, rated heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it supplements an existing butt hinge installation. The Ives 7237F is an offset hung top and bottom pivot set, meaning the door swings on the pivots themselves rather than on butt hinges, so specifying it means changing how the door is hung.
12) What finishes does the Ives 7237F offset pivot come in?
Twelve: 605 bright brass, 612 satin bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, 643E aged bronze, 689 aluminum painted, 691 bronze painted, 695 dark bronze, and 706 brass painted. On a building already standardized on 630 satin stainless for its lever trim and push plates, 630 is the match, and it is also the finish that reads closest to the stainless the pivot is made from.
13) Will an Ives 7237F pivot hold up in a parking garage or coastal exterior entrance?
Stainless steel construction with precision bearings, which is the reason to pick it over a plated or bronze pivot in a wet, salted, or coastal environment. It is a commercial heavy duty part rated to 1,750 lbs, so a heavy exterior entrance door is the application it is built for.
14) Does the Ives 7237F need power or wiring for an access control door?
No. The 7237F is a mechanical pivot with no electrical function, so it carries no power transfer for an electrified lock or exit device. If the opening needs power to the leaf, that comes from a separate electric power transfer or a door loop, specified alongside the pivots.
