Ives 261B15 Manual Flush Bolt 4 in Solid Brass Satin Nickel

Product Description

The IVES 261B15 is a manual flush bolt designed for use on inactive door leafs in paired door assemblies. The bolt slides vertically into the door frame header or floor strike to secure the inactive leaf without requiring a separate lock case. Constructed from solid brass, the 261B15 carries a satin nickel finish that suits a broad range of commercial and residential architectural hardware schedules. Weighing 0.2 pounds, it is a compact unit measuring 3.5 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.75 inches in height. Installation is straightforward for door hardware technicians and general contractors working with wood or hollow metal door pairs.

Flush bolts in this format are commonly specified on double-door and French door applications in both residential and light commercial construction. The 261B15 is suited for installation on the inactive leaf of an inswing or outswing door pair where a clean, low-profile hardware profile is required. The satin nickel finish allows it to coordinate with other IVES architectural hardware accessories including strikes, hinges, and pulls across a matched finish program.

Installation Notes

Flush bolts are installed by door hardware specialists or finish carpenters as part of a paired door hardware package. Before installation, confirm the door edge and frame header or floor have been properly prepped to accept the bolt body and strike. Follow local building code requirements, including ADA and IBC accessibility provisions where applicable, when selecting flush bolt placement on accessible door openings. Ensure the door is held stationary during mortise or surface-mount drilling operations to prevent misalignment of the bolt throw.
