Ives 265B5 Manual Flush Bolt 6 Inch Solid Brass

Product Description

The IVES 265B5 is a manual flush bolt designed for use on inactive door leafs in paired door applications. Constructed from solid brass with an antique brass finish, this bolt installs into the door edge and face to provide top or bottom latching without an exposed surface-mounted mechanism. The rounded body profile measures 6 inches in length and is suited for wood or hollow metal door installations. Licensed contractors and finish carpenters typically install flush bolts during door hardware rough-in or finish trim stages. The 265B5 ships as a single unit.

This flush bolt is appropriate for residential and light commercial door openings where a concealed latching solution is required on a passive door panel. Common applications include French door pairs, double entry doors, and interior paired doors where one leaf must remain fixed while the other operates. The antique brass finish coordinates with other IVES architectural hardware in matching finishes for a consistent appearance across the opening.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Flush bolts are typically installed by a finish carpenter or licensed door hardware installer. Mortise the door edge and face per the bolt template before installation, and ensure the strike or floor socket is aligned accurately to the bolt throw. All door hardware work should comply with applicable local building codes and accessibility requirements. Do not force the bolt into an undersized mortise, as this can crack the door edge or damage the bolt housing.
