Ives 112HD 83 313AN Ept Rh Continuous Gear Hinge 83in

Product Description

The IVES 112HD 83 313AN EPT RH is a full-mortise continuous gear hinge manufactured from dark bronze anodized aluminum. Continuous gear hinges run the full height of the door, distributing load evenly across the entire door edge rather than concentrating stress at two or three hinge points. This design is well-suited for high-traffic commercial doors where conventional hinges wear prematurely. The hinge features a narrow frame leaf and a narrow door leaf with no inset, and includes a Von Duprin EPT (Electric Power Transfer) prep for integrating access control wiring through the hinge. It is a right-hand configuration and measures 83 inches in length.

This hinge is intended for commercial and institutional door applications where continuous-duty hardware is specified. The Von Duprin EPT prep makes it a practical choice for doors requiring electrified hardware such as electric strikes, magnetic locks, or electrified exit devices. The full-mortise mounting style requires the frame and door to be routed to receive both leaves flush. Narrow-leaf geometry suits frames and doors with limited edge clearance. Right-hand designation should be confirmed against field conditions before ordering.

Key Features

• Full-mortise continuous gear hinge distributes load along the full 83-inch door height
• Dark bronze anodized aluminum finish for corrosion resistance and aesthetic consistency with commercial hardware sets
• Von Duprin EPT prep allows passage of electric power transfer wiring without exposed cables
• Narrow frame leaf and narrow door leaf for installations with limited edge width
• No-inset configuration simplifies mortise routing requirements
• Right-hand configuration - verify hand of door before installation

Compatibility

Designed for full-mortise installation on commercial doors requiring a continuous gear hinge with Von Duprin EPT electric power transfer prep. Compatible with Von Duprin EPT assemblies as specified in the part configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation of continuous gear hinges is typically performed by commercial door and hardware professionals or qualified locksmiths familiar with mortise routing and electrified door hardware. Power to any associated access control or electrified exit device must be disconnected before installation or service. Full-mortise installation requires precise routing of both the door and frame edges to seat each leaf flush. Wiring routed through the EPT prep should comply with applicable NFPA 70 (NEC) low-voltage wiring requirements and the EPT manufacturer instructions.
