Ives 8400 Series Kick Plate — 6" Height, Four Beveled Edges

The Ives 8400 Series kick plate is the commercial standard for lower-door protection in high-traffic openings. The 6" height covers the strike zone on most commercial doors; four beveled edges on all four sides give a finished, professional look without sharp corners. Pre-drilled countersunk holes ensure the screw heads sit flush — no proud hardware to catch on carts or equipment. Every plate ships with 16 #6 × 5/8" oval-head screws so installation is complete out of the box.

Substrate & Finish Options

  • Stainless Steel (630 — Satin Stainless): 300-series stainless for maximum corrosion resistance; suitable for exterior and wet-area applications.
  • Bronze (613 — Satin Bronze Oil-Rubbed): Warm, dark tone that coordinates with oil-rubbed bronze lever and hinge hardware.
  • Bright Brass (605): High-polish brass for traditional and institutional interiors.
  • Satin Brass (606): Brushed brass finish for a softer, contemporary look.

Widths run from 22" to 40" to fit standard and oversized commercial door widths. For brass plates installed on metal doors, apply gasket tape around the perimeter to prevent electrolytic oxidation and tarnishing.

Certifications & Standards

  • ANSI/BHMA A156.6 — Grade 1 (J301): Meets the commercial-grade standard for protection plates; mounting hardware exceeds industry minimums.
  • UL10C Listed: Certified for use on positive-pressure fire-rated door assemblies — required on fire-corridor and stairwell doors in most jurisdictions.

Typical Applications

  • Commercial office buildings, lobbies, and corridors
  • Healthcare facilities and hospital corridors
  • Educational institutions — classrooms, cafeterias, gymnasiums
  • Retail and hospitality back-of-house doors
  • Multi-family residential common areas and laundry rooms
  • Government and municipal buildings
  • Industrial and warehouse personnel doors

Installation Notes

  1. Verify door thickness and substrate material compatibility before ordering.
  2. Use the manufacturer template to mark hole locations; drill pilot holes to match the door substrate.
  3. Set the plate with the included #6 × 5/8" oval-head screws — countersunk holes should sit flush with the plate face.
  4. For brass plates on hollow metal doors, apply gasket tape around the full perimeter before fastening to prevent galvanic tarnishing.
  5. Confirm alignment with door edges and existing hardware before final tightening.

Ives 840032D634 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What width kick plate do I order for a 36 inch door?
Take the 6 x 34 inch plate. On a single door with a stop, the plate is normally sized 2 inches under the door width so it clears the stop and the hinge edge; on a pair of doors or a double-egress opening with no stop between the leaves, size 1 inch under the leaf width. The Ives 8400 kick plate at 6 inch height comes in 22, 24, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 34, 38 and 40 inch widths, and 34 inches is offered in all four finishes: 630 satin stainless, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass.
2) Can I install an Ives 8400 kick plate on a fire-rated stairwell or corridor door?
Yes. The 8400 kick plate is UL10C Listed, which covers it for use on positive-pressure fire-rated door assemblies, and that listing is what most jurisdictions ask for on fire-corridor and stairwell doors. Height helps you here too: a protection plate whose top edge sits no more than 16 inches above the bottom of the door is permitted on a labeled door without additional listing, and a 6 inch plate set at the door bottom is well inside that. Do not field-modify the plate or drill through the door label.
3) Does the Ives 8400 kick plate meet an ANSI/BHMA A156.6 Grade 1 protection plate spec?
It does. The 8400 meets ANSI/BHMA A156.6 under product code J301, which is the armor, kick and mop plate category, at Grade 1, and the mounting hardware supplied with it exceeds the standard's minimums. If your hardware schedule calls out J301 protection plates for a healthcare, education or government facility, this is a direct match. It is also UL10C Listed, so the same part number covers your rated openings and your non-rated ones, which is what you want when you are standardizing across a building.
4) Which kick plate finish holds up on an exterior door or in a wet area like a locker room?
Go with 630 satin stainless. That version of the Ives 8400 is 300-series stainless steel, the finish with the most corrosion resistance in the line, and it is the one called out for exterior and wet-area work. The brass options, 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass, and the 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed are interior finishes, and bright brass in particular will show handling and cleaning on a heavily used opening. 630 in 6 inch height runs the full width range, 22 through 40 inches.
5) Can I put a brass kick plate on a hollow metal door?
You can, but do not fasten brass straight to the steel. Run gasket tape around the full perimeter of the plate before you set the screws. Dissimilar metals in contact will drive electrolytic oxidation, and the brass tarnishes from the edges in. That applies to both the 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass versions of the 8400. If the door is hollow metal and you would rather not deal with the isolation step, the 630 satin stainless plate has no such issue.
6) Can a Hager 190S kick plate be swapped for an Ives 8400 in satin stainless?
Both are beveled-edge kick plates offered in satin stainless. The Hager 190S is a door protection plate in the 190 Series with a satin stainless steel finish and four beveled edges. The Ives 8400 in 630 satin stainless is also a four-beveled-edge plate, built at a 6 inch height in widths from 22 to 40 inches, meeting ANSI/BHMA A156.6 for J301 and listed to UL10C for positive-pressure fire-rated door assemblies. What decides the swap is dimension: measure the plate coming off the door and confirm it falls at 6 inches high and between 22 and 40 inches wide before ordering the 8400 in its place.
7) Are all the Ives 8400 finishes available in every width, or is the size range different per finish?
Same ten widths in every finish. At 6 inch height the 8400 is built in 22, 24, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 34, 38 and 40 inch widths, and each of those is offered in 630 satin stainless, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass. That matters on a mixed building: you can spec one finish across doors of different widths without dropping to a second finish on the odd opening.
8) Is a 6 inch kick plate tall enough, or should I be looking at a taller plate?
Six inches covers the strike zone on most commercial doors, meaning the band where shoes and door stops actually hit, and it is the workhorse height for offices, classrooms, corridors and common areas. Where it is not the right call is heavy wheeled traffic. Food service carts, housekeeping carts, hospital beds and pallet jacks strike higher and wider than a foot does, and those openings are usually specified with a taller kick plate, an 8 or 10 inch height, or a full armor plate that runs up past the lock. Loading dock and back-of-house doors are the usual candidates.
9) What else does ZenSupply carry that is comparable to the Ives 8400 kick plate in satin stainless?
The Hager 190S is the closest cross-brand equivalent we stock: a door protection plate from the Hager 190 Series in satin stainless steel with four beveled edges, same construction idea as the 8400 in 630. Both are stainless four-bevel plates, so the choice usually comes down to which brand the rest of the opening is already specified in. Where the Ives 8400 is the firmer answer is on rated openings and hardware schedules, since it carries UL10C Listing and meets ANSI/BHMA A156.6 for J301.
10) Which Ives 8400 finish matches oil-rubbed bronze levers and hinges?
613, satin bronze oil-rubbed. It is the warm dark tone made to coordinate with oil-rubbed bronze lever and hinge hardware, so it disappears into an opening that is already ORB. For the other common fleets: 605 bright brass is the high-polish look for traditional and institutional interiors, 606 satin brass is the brushed, softer version of the same family, and 630 satin stainless is the match for satin chrome and stainless trim, which is what most modern commercial buildings run.
11) Our doors have oil-rubbed bronze levers - what kick plate coordinates with that instead of stainless?
The Ives 8400 6 inch kick plate is made in 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed alongside 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, and 630 satin stainless steel, so it can be matched to bronze or brass lever and hinge hardware; the 613 plates run from 6 x 22 through 6 x 40. The Hager 190S 190S-32D is a satin stainless steel plate with four beveled edges, which coordinates with 630 satin stainless trim. If you go with a brass or bronze plate on a hollow metal door, apply gasket tape around the full perimeter before fastening to prevent galvanic tarnishing.
12) The hardware schedule calls for a B4E kick plate - do the Ives 8400 and Hager 190S both read as B4E?
B4E means beveled on all four edges. The Ives 8400 6 inch plate has four beveled edges on all sides with pre-drilled countersunk holes so screw heads sit flush against carts and equipment traffic, and the Hager 190S is likewise a four-beveled-edge kick plate in satin stainless. Both answer a B4E call-out on a schedule. The 8400 also meets ANSI/BHMA A156.6 for J301, which is the protection-plate designation a spec writer cites on that same line.
13) Will the kick plate edges or screw heads catch carts and equipment in a corridor?
No. All four edges of the 8400 are beveled, so there is no raw sheared edge or sharp corner anywhere on the plate, and the mounting holes are countersunk so the oval-head screws sit flush with the face rather than standing proud. Nothing on the plate presents an edge for a cart wheel, a hose, or a mop bucket to hook. That is the reason four-bevel plates are the norm in healthcare corridors, school cafeterias and gyms rather than square-edge stock.
