Pemko ERSMP84C-NBPxHT-LH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Pemko ERSMP hinge and how does it stop a patient from barricading a door?
The ERSMP is a continuous geared hinge with an emergency release stop and a multi-point latch built into it. In normal use the door swings the way it was hung. When staff need in and the door has been blocked, a flush bolt mechanism releases so the door can swing the opposite direction instead. Pemko pairs it with their DSH Double Swing Hinge to make that reverse swing work, so the two are ordered together as a system. The continuous hinge body also runs the full height of the opening, which removes ligature points across the top of the hinge, the reason it shows up in behavioral health and psychiatric work.
2) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Pemko ERSMP hinge?
Yes, handing is a required choice. The emergency release stop hinge is built left-handed or right-handed and every length (84, 96 and 120 inch) comes both ways. Stand outside the opening, on the side the door swings away from: hinges on your left is left-handed. Order the wrong hand and the release mechanism sits on the wrong edge of the opening.
3) Do I need to buy anything else to make the ERSMP anti-barricade system work?
Yes. The ERSMP handles the emergency release and the multi-point latching, but the door only swings the other way if it is hung on Pemko's DSH Double Swing Hinge. Budget both per opening. Order the ERSMP alone and you have a continuous hinge with a release that has nothing to release into.
4) I need a continuous hinge with a 90 minute fire rating - is the Pemko ERSMP the right part?
The Pemko ERSMP is a Grade 1 aluminum emergency release stop hinge whose purpose is anti-barricade performance and ligature-point elimination in behavioral health and medical openings. For an opening where the label drives the selection, the BEST 663HD is a heavy duty continuous hinge carrying a 90 minute UL fire rating for 3/32 inch inset doors, the BEST 664HD is a full surface heavy duty continuous geared hinge with the same 90 minute UL rating, and the NGP HD5700 is a full surface geared hinge with a 1/16 inch door inset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, 10C fire rated 90 minutes on hollow metal. Those three answer the fire label; the ERSMP answers the emergency access requirement.
5) What continuous hinge should I use on a behavioral health door if I don't need the emergency release feature?
The Pemko ERSMP is built specifically around an emergency release flush bolt that lets the door swing the opposite direction, plus a continuous top design that eliminates ligature points. If the opening only needs a durable continuous geared hinge and no anti-barricade function, the ABH A135HD is a heavy duty aluminum continuous gear hinge with a safety design, and the BEST 641 is a steel full mortise continuous hinge supplied with hospital tips. Hospital tips close off the top and bottom of the hinge so there is nothing to catch on, which is the reason they show up on healthcare openings, but neither of those hinges provides the reverse-swing emergency release the ERSMP does.
6) Is a full mortise continuous geared hinge a substitute for the Pemko ERSMP on a psychiatric hospital door?
Not for the anti-barricade requirement. Full mortise geared hinges such as the ABH A120HD, which is a heavy duty aluminum continuous gear hinge with easy install technology, the Design Hardware FMHD heavy duty full mortise geared hinge, and the BEST 651 stainless steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips are all continuous hinges that pin the leaf along its full height and remove the gaps a standard butt hinge leaves. What none of them carry is the ERSMP's emergency release flush bolt that lets the door reverse direction, or its New York State Office of Mental Health Recommended status. On a psychiatric or behavioral health opening where reverse-swing access is written into the spec, the ERSMP is the part; on a back-of-house door in the same building, the full mortise hinges are a straightforward continuous hinge choice.
7) What is the NBP notch on the Pemko ERSMP hinge for?
NBP is the notch type the ERSMP ships in across all six catalogued combinations, and the notch is not optional on this hinge. It is cut so the release mechanism and the head condition clear when the door reverses swing. Custom lengths are available, and Pemko keeps the notch mandatory on those too, with hospital tips (HT) as the standard end treatment.
8) My door height is not 84, 96 or 120 inches. Can I get the ERSMP cut to my opening?
Custom lengths are available on the ERSMP. Two things carry over on a custom order: the notch is mandatory, and hospital tips are the standard end treatment. Hospital tips are the sloped ends that leave nothing to catch a cord or a strap, which is why they are standard on a behavioral health hinge rather than an extra.
9) Can someone tamper with the emergency release on the ERSMP hinge?
The access plug on the ERSMP is held by TORX security screws, so releasing it takes the right driver rather than a coin or a table knife. That is the point of the design in a psychiatric or assisted living setting: staff with the tool can reverse the door, a resident working on it from inside cannot.
10) Does the Pemko ERSMP meet behavioral health standards for a state psychiatric facility?
The ERSMP carries a New York State Office of Mental Health recommendation, which is the reference most behavioral health specifiers check first for anti-ligature door hardware. It is also a Grade 1 aluminum assembly, the heavy duty tier for institutional traffic. If your project is specified to a different state agency's list, take the OMH recommendation as the credential we hold on record for it.
11) Should I use an anti-barricade hinge or a standard heavy duty continuous hinge?
Different jobs. A standard continuous geared hinge, like the ABH A120HD full mortise or the Design Hardware FMHD, carries a heavy door on a long-life pivot and nothing more. The ERSMP is for openings where someone may block the door from inside: patient rooms, seclusion rooms, assisted living baths. If the opening is a corridor, a mechanical room, or an office in the same building, put a conventional heavy duty geared hinge on it and save the anti-barricade assembly for the rooms that need it.
12) I want hospital tips on a continuous hinge but not the anti-barricade function. What else is there?
Hospital tips show up on standard continuous hinges too. The BEST 641 is a steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips at medium duty, and the BEST 651 is the same arrangement in stainless steel. Those give you the anti-catch end treatment on a normal swinging door. The ERSMP is where you go when the door itself has to reverse, and it comes with hospital tips as standard on custom lengths.
13) What exact Pemko model do I order for an anti-barricade patient room door?
The model is ERSMP, the Emergency Release Stop Hinge with Multi-Point Latch. Four things pin down the order: hand (left or right), length (84, 96 or 120 inches, or a custom length), NBP notch, and clear anodized aluminum finish. Add the Pemko DSH Double Swing Hinge alongside it to complete the assembly.
14) Does the Pemko ERSMP come in stainless steel, and what are my options if the opening calls for a steel hinge?
The Pemko ERSMP is built in aluminum and is offered in a clear anodized aluminum finish. Where a job specifies a steel or stainless hinge, the BEST 641 is a steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips at a medium duty level, and the BEST 651 is the stainless steel full mortise version, also with hospital tips and a medium duty level. Those are material substitutions, though, not functional ones - neither carries the ERSMP's emergency release mechanism.
15) I need the hinge hidden when the door is closed. Will the Pemko ERSMP do that, or should I look at something else?
The Pemko ERSMP is a surface-visible emergency release stop hinge whose access plug is secured with TORX security screws, so the release point is reachable by authorized staff. For a concealed appearance, the NGP HD1100A is a concealed continuous geared hinge, 83 inches, heavy duty, 10C fire rated 90 minutes on hollow metal. Concealed geared hinges disappear into the gap between door and frame; the ERSMP's design instead keeps a tamper-resistant release accessible, which is the whole point of the part on an anti-barricade opening.
16) For a retrofit where I cannot mortise the frame, what continuous hinge works instead of the Pemko ERSMP?
The Pemko ERSMP is ordered by handing, left or right, along with length and the NBP notch, which means the hinge is cut for the specific opening. On a retrofit where mortising is off the table, surface-applied geared hinges are the usual route: the Design Hardware FSHD is a full surface heavy duty continuous geared hinge, the FSOHD is the full surface offset version, and the NGP HD5400A is a half surface geared hinge in aluminum alloy, 83 inches, 10C fire rated 90 minutes on hollow metal. Half surface mounts to the door face and frame rabbet; full surface mounts to both faces, which is what makes it work on an existing frame you would rather not machine.
17) What finish does the Pemko ERSMP emergency release hinge come in?
Clear anodized aluminum, and that is the only finish offered across all lengths and both hands. The body is aluminum, so the anodized coating is the finish rather than a plated topcoat. If you are standardizing a behavioral health wing, expect the hinge to read as satin aluminum against your frames rather than matching a brass or bronze door package.
18) Is the Pemko ERSMP hinge strong enough for a high traffic institutional corridor door?
Grade 1 is the heavy duty tier, and the ERSMP is a Grade 1 aluminum continuous hinge, so the load spreads down the full height of the door edge instead of concentrating on three butts. On aluminum, that continuous bearing is what keeps a heavily used door from sagging out of the frame. Note the width limit of 4 feet stands regardless of traffic.
