Ives IVE-FS1153-US28 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Ives FS1153 aluminum plunger door holder used for?
The FS1153 is a wall-mounted plunger-type door holder that keeps doors open at a fixed position. The plunger extends to catch and hold the door, preventing it from swinging closed.
2) What door weights and sizes is this holder compatible with?
Verify compatibility with your specific door weight and width using the manufacturer's specifications. Most plunger holders work with standard commercial doors but check the template for proper positioning.
3) Can this door holder work with both left and right hand doors?
Most plunger door holders are universal and work with both left and right hand doors. The wall mounting position determines which door swing it will accommodate.
4) What finishes are available for the FS1153?
This model features an aluminum finish. Check the product specifications for exact finish details and any additional finish options that may be available.
5) What is the holding strength of this plunger door holder?
Holding strength varies by model and installation. Verify the manufacturer's specifications for maximum door weight and wind load ratings for your specific application.
6) Does this door holder meet building code requirements?
Check local building codes and fire safety requirements. Some applications may require holders that automatically release during fire conditions. Verify compliance for your specific project.
7) What hardware is included with the FS1153?
Most door holders include basic mounting hardware. Check the package contents and verify you have appropriate fasteners for your wall type and construction.
8) How do you install a plunger-type door holder?
Mount the holder to the wall at the correct height using the manufacturer's template. Position it so the plunger catches the door at the desired open position. Use appropriate fasteners for your wall construction.
9) How do you adjust the holding position?
Most plunger holders have limited adjustment. The door opening angle is determined by the wall mounting position. Some models allow minor plunger extension adjustments.
10) What are similar alternatives to the FS1153?
Consider other Ives door holders or similar plunger-style holders from our door hardware selection. Floor-mounted door stops are another alternative for some applications.
