Ives 261B5 Manual Flush Bolt 4 Inches Solid Brass

Product Description

The IVES 261B5 is a manual flush bolt designed for use on inactive door leaves in paired door applications. It mounts into the edge of a wood or hollow metal door and operates with a simple push or pull of the finger pull to throw or retract the bolt, securing the door at the top rail, bottom rail, or both. The bolt body is constructed of solid brass, providing corrosion resistance and long service life. The Antique Brass finish coordinates with period and transitional door hardware. Installation is typically handled by a finish carpenter, locksmith, or general contractor during door hardware trim-out.

This flush bolt is suited for residential and light commercial door pairs where a concealed latching point is required on the inactive leaf. Common applications include entry vestibules, conference room double doors, and interior French door pairs. The low-profile design keeps the door edge clean when the bolt is in the retracted position.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or licensed locksmith. The door must be properly prepared with a routed mortise pocket sized to the bolt body before installation. Ensure the door is removed from the frame or securely propped before routing and fastening. Confirm strike cup placement at the head and sill before final adjustment.
