Norton Rixson 370 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does a door have to be modified to take the Rixson 370 center hung pivots?
Yes, and it is the part people miss. Center hung means the pivot point sits in the center of the door's thickness, so the pivot edge of the door has to be prepared with a radius before the door is hung. That prep is not optional and it is easier to get done at the shop than on site. Layout for the top and bottom pivot holes on both the door and the floor is done from the manufacturer's templates. Fasteners are covered either way: the set is furnished with both wood screws and machine screws, so it lands on a wood door or a hollow metal one.
2) Does the Rixson 370 bottom pivot need a cement case cut into the floor?
No cutting into the slab. The 370 bottom pivot mounts directly to the floor, so there is no case to set and no coring. That is the practical split between a pivot set and a floor closer: a floor closer needs a case buried in the floor and it controls the door, while the 370 only hangs and swings it. If the opening also needs the door closed or held open, that is separate hardware on its own order.
3) Is the Norton Rixson 370 pivot set handed? Do I order a different part for a left hand door?
Non-handed, so one order covers both swings. You specify finish and whether you want the 340 top pivot included, not the hand of the door. For a building with openings swinging different directions, that means a single stocked item instead of two.
4) What does the Less Top Pivot option mean on the Rixson 370?
It decides whether the 340 top pivot comes with the set. Ordered with Less Top Pivot set to No, you get the complete set, 340 top pivot and bottom pivot together. Set to Yes, the 340 is left out and you are buying the balance of the set, which is what you want when the head of the door is already handled by other hardware or you have the top pivot on hand. Both versions are offered in all seven finishes, so the choice does not narrow your finish options.
5) Can the spindle on a Rixson 370 pivot be lengthened for a thick finished floor?
Extended spindles are available in 13mm (1/2 inch) increments, up to 51mm (2 inches) longer than standard. That covers the openings where the finished floor comes up after the pivot location is set, or where the undercut at the bottom of the door is larger than normal. Length is specified when the set is ordered, so measure the finished floor height before the order goes in rather than after the tile is down.
6) Is the Norton Rixson 370 pivot set fire rated?
No, the 370 center hung pivot set carries no fire rating, so it does not belong on a labeled fire door assembly, where every piece of hanging hardware has to be listed for the assembly. On non-rated openings, interior or exterior, it is a heavy duty commercial set rated to 500 lbs.
7) What comes with the Rixson 370 pivot set, and what else do I need to order to finish the opening?
The set is the 340 top pivot plus the bottom pivot, with both wood screws and machine screws included so it fastens into wood or metal. Templates for the door and floor prep come from the manufacturer. What it does not include is door control, since pivots hang and swing a door but do not close or hold it, so a closer or holder is a separate line on the order. If you already have the top pivot, order the less-top-pivot version instead of the complete set. Extended spindles, if the floor build-up calls for them, are also specified at order time.
8) Can I run wiring through the Rixson 370 pivot for an electrified lock?
The 370 is a mechanical pivot set with no electrical provision, so it will not transfer power to the door. Wiring for an electrified lock, exit device or card reader has to cross the opening on separate hardware, such as an electric power transfer, an electrified hinge on a secondary point, or a surface door loop. Nothing about that changes the pivot selection, since the pivots still carry the leaf.
9) I need pivots to match the satin chrome hardware on the rest of my entrances. What finishes does the Rixson 370 come in?
Seven: 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 618 bright nickel, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black and 626 satin chrome. Every one of the seven is offered both as the complete set with the 340 top pivot and as the less-top-pivot version, so standardizing a whole building on one finish does not restrict how you order individual openings.
