Norton Rixson 147 RH 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the 3/4 inch offset on a Rixson 147 pivot actually measure?
The 3/4 inch is from the centerline of the pivot to the face of the door, which is what sets your door-to-frame clearance and where the leaf sits in the opening. If the door has cladding or the frame has molding in the way, there is a 1-1/2 inch offset option instead. Get this dimension right before the door is prepped, since the routing is cut to it.
2) Is the Norton Rixson 147 pivot set handed, and can I use one on either door?
Handed. You order left hand or right hand and the set is not reversible, so a mis-handed set will not work on the opening. Both hands are stocked in every finish, with or without the top pivot.
3) I have a fire door. Can I use the 147 pivot?
No, not the standard 147. Its base material is non-ferrous, and for fire door assemblies you need the F147 variant, which is built with ferrous material and requires the intermediate pivot. The F147 is rated for assemblies up to three hours. Do not substitute the standard set into a rated opening.
4) What is the difference between the 147 and the 147 LTP, and which do I order?
LTP means Less Top Pivot. Order the standard 147 when you need the complete set including the top pivot. Order LTP when the top of the door is already controlled by something else, typically an overhead closer or holder that carries its own top pivot, so you are only buying the bottom and the offset hardware. Both are offered in all seven finishes and both hands.
5) What comes in the box with a Rixson 147 pivot set, and what do I still have to order?
The set is furnished with wood and machine screws. What you order separately: the M19 intermediate pivot for doors 60 to 90 inches tall, and any extended spindles, which come in 1/2 inch increments up to 2 inches longer than standard for thicker floor coverings or deeper conditions. If you are buying LTP, the top pivot is not in the box either.
6) Will a door on 147 offset pivots open a full 180 degrees?
Yes, the door swings 180 degrees where the trim permits. That is the practical limit: adjacent wall trim, a push plate, or a projecting frame stop will catch the leaf before the pivot does. Offset pivots are chosen for exactly this in high traffic openings where you want the leaf flat against the wall.
7) Should I use offset pivots or center-hung pivots on a heavy commercial door?
Offset, like the 147, puts the pivot point outside the door face (3/4 inch from centerline of pivot to face of door), so the leaf swings clear of the opening in one direction and you get the 180 degree swing when trim allows. Center hung pivots put the point inside the door and are what you use for double-acting doors that swing both ways. If the door swings one direction and you want it to lay back against the wall, offset is the right family; if it needs to push both ways, offset is the wrong choice.
8) Does the door edge need to be beveled for Rixson 147 pivots?
Yes, 1/8 inch in 2 inches on the door edge, checked as part of the door prep along with thickness and the 600 pound weight limit. The bottom pivot mounts directly to the floor, so the floor holes are laid out from the manufacturer template rather than off the frame.
9) Can I standardize the same pivot across both interior and exterior doors in my building?
The 147 is specified for exterior or interior commercial doors, so one part family covers both, with the same 600 pound capacity and the same seven finishes across the whole facility. The two things that vary opening to opening are the hand and whether you need the top pivot, and rated openings have to move to the F147 instead.
10) What finishes does the Norton Rixson 147 pivot set come in for matching existing door hardware?
Seven: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. Those are standard BHMA finish numbers, so if the closers and pulls on your other openings are specified 626, the pivots will match on the number. Every finish is available in both hands, with or without the top pivot.
