Norton Rixson 270 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order a left hand or right hand version of the Rixson 270 pivot?
No handing to specify. The 270 Series pivot set is non-handed, so the same set installs on a left or right swing door. That also makes it easier to stock: one part covers every opening in a building instead of two.
2) What comes in the Rixson 270 pivot set, and do I need to buy anything else?
The 270 set is a top and bottom pivot pair. The top pivot mounts at the head and the bottom pivot mounts directly to the floor, so there is no floor closer cement case involved. If the opening needs door control, a closer is a separate item; the 270 is a hanging device only.
3) Does the Rixson 270 pivot meet a Grade 1 spec for an institutional job?
It is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1, the top performance tier for door controls, which is what most government, healthcare, and education specs call for on entrance hardware. One thing to check against your drawing: the 270 is not fire rated, so it cannot go on a labeled opening.
4) My door is thicker than standard. Can the Rixson 270 pivot still work?
Extended spindles cover it. The 270 Series is offered with spindles in 1/2 inch (13 mm) increments up to 2 inches (51 mm) longer than standard, which is how you make a center hung pivot work on a thicker than normal leaf. That is an ordering option, so specify the extension length when you place the order rather than assuming the standard spindle.
5) Can I use the Rixson 270 pivot on an exterior door?
Yes, it is built for both. The pivots use sealed bearings that keep weather and debris out of the raceway, and the set is rated for commercial interior and exterior use. The steel substrate and the finish you pick determine how it holds up cosmetically outdoors, so on a coastal or heavily exposed entrance a chrome finish such as 626 Satin Chrome will hold appearance better than a brass one.
6) Is the Rixson 270 an electrified pivot for power transfer to the door?
No. The 270 Series is a mechanical pivot set with no electrical option, so it will not carry power through to an electric lock, exit device, or card reader on the leaf. For a powered opening you need a separate power transfer device or an electrified hinge in addition to the pivots.
7) Where do I find the floor and head templates for the Rixson 270 pivot?
Cutting the floor prep is the part that has to be right the first time. Full dimensional drawings, template information, and the extended spindle ordering details are in the Rixson Pivot Sets Catalog, which is the document to hand the installer before anyone cores the floor.
8) What finishes does the Rixson 270 center hung pivot come in?
Ten finishes, which is usually enough to match whatever is already on the other openings: 605 Bright Brass, 606 Satin Brass, 611 Bright Bronze, 612 Satin Bronze, 613 Satin Bronze Oil-Rubbed, 618 Bright Nickel, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, and 626 Satin Chrome. Note that only the top pivot is really visible in service; the bottom pivot sits at the floor.
