Kawneer KW050326-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Kawneer KW050326-17 bottom pivot handed, and what happens if I order the wrong hand?
The KW050326-17 is factory-configured right-handed. A bottom pivot carries the door's weight and sets the pivot centerline, so a right-hand pivot will not serve a left-hand opening. Confirm the hand of the leaf at the door before ordering; if the opening is left-handed you need the matching left-hand Kawneer bottom pivot instead.
2) Do I need a threshold for the KW050326-17 bottom pivot, or can it be used on a door without one?
It's built for threshold applications. The KW050326-17 is engineered to mount with a threshold at the base of the door, so it is the wrong part for an opening with no threshold or one where the pivot sets into the floor or a floor closer. If your Kawneer entrance runs without a threshold, ask for the offset or floor-mounted bottom pivot for that system.
3) Will the KW050326-17 match my existing Kawneer aluminum storefront doors?
It's a genuine Kawneer service part made to original equipment specification, in a clear aluminum finish that matches standard clear-anodized commercial aluminum framing. That makes it a like-for-like replacement on compatible Kawneer pivot-hung entrances rather than a universal pivot. Kawneer entrance systems vary by series, so match the part number stamped on the pivot you are pulling out.
4) What exactly is the KW050326-17, a hinge or a pivot?
A bottom pivot. Rather than hinges on the jamb, a pivot-hung aluminum door turns on a pin at the bottom rail and a matching top pivot at the head. The KW050326-17 is the lower half of that arrangement, carrying the door leaf's weight and locating its swing at the threshold. It does not replace butt hinges or a continuous geared hinge.
5) I'm replacing a worn bottom pivot on an exit door. Does the KW050326-17 cover that, or do I need other parts too?
The KW050326-17 is the bottom pivot alone, sold as a replacement service part. Swapping it restores pivot action at the base of the leaf, but if the door has dropped or is binding at the head, the top pivot or intermediate pivot may be worn as well and should be inspected at the same time. Exit device hardware on the door face is separate and not included.
6) Is this a residential or commercial-duty pivot?
Commercial only. The KW050326-17 is rated commercial and intended for high-traffic pivot-hung entrances: office building entries, school corridor and exit doors, healthcare entry points, retail storefronts, municipal building exits, and warehouse door systems. It isn't a residential door part.
7) Does the KW050326-17 come in other finishes besides clear aluminum?
Clear aluminum is the finish on the KW050326-17, and it's supplied as a single part number with no finish options. Clear anodized blends with standard mill-finish and clear-anodized aluminum storefront framing; for dark bronze or painted framing the pivot will still function identically, it just won't colour-match.
