Ives 112HD8328 Full Mortise Continuous Hinge 83 in

Product Description

The IVES 112HD8328 is a heavy duty full mortise continuous hinge designed for demanding commercial and institutional door applications. Running the full height of the door edge, this continuous hinge distributes load evenly along the entire jamb-to-door interface, reducing stress concentrations that cause premature wear on traditional three-knuckle hinges. Finished in aluminum, it measures 83 inches in length and weighs 7.5 pounds. Licensed tradespeople and commercial door installers specify full mortise continuous hinges on high-traffic entryways where longevity and structural integrity are the primary concerns.

This hinge is suited for heavy-use interior and exterior doors in commercial, institutional, and educational facilities. Full mortise installation means both the door and frame leaves are recessed into routed channels, producing a flush, clean surface on both faces. The aluminum finish coordinates with standard aluminum door frames commonly found in office buildings, schools, and healthcare facilities. It is sold individually and is appropriate for single-door applications requiring a full-height continuous hinge.

Installation Notes

Installation of full mortise continuous hinges should be performed by a qualified door hardware installer or commercial door contractor. Both the door stile and the door frame must be routed to the correct depth and width before the hinge is set; verify routing dimensions against the hinge leaf width before cutting. Disconnect any electrified hardware and ensure the door is properly supported or removed from the opening before starting work. Follow applicable building codes and the door manufacturer's preparation specifications for mortise depth and fastener pattern.
