Ives 40B33 Surface Bolt 3 Inches Solid Brass

Product Description

The IVES 40B33 is a solid brass surface bolt finished in Bright Brass, designed to provide supplemental security on doors, gates, and shutters in residential and light commercial applications. The bolt mounts directly to the door face and slides into a matching strike to hold the door in an open or closed position. At 3 inches in length, it offers a clean, modern profile that suits contemporary and traditional architectural styles alike. Solid brass construction delivers corrosion resistance and long service life in both interior and exterior environments. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and finish hardware installers are the typical tradespeople who specify and install this hardware.

The 40B33 suits applications where a flush bolt is impractical or where surface-mounted hardware is preferred, such as inactive leaves of double doors, French doors, bi-fold gates, cabinet doors, and window shutters. It is sold individually and is available in case quantities of 10 for larger projects. The Bright Brass finish coordinates with matching IVES hinges, pulls, and protection plates for a consistent architectural hardware package across the opening.

Key Features

• Solid brass body provides corrosion resistance for interior and exterior door applications
• 3-inch bolt length suits standard residential and light commercial door hardware layouts
• Surface-mount design allows installation without door edge boring or mortising
• Bright Brass finish coordinates with complementary IVES architectural hardware lines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style surface bolt for residential and light commercial door applications where a surface-mounted sliding bolt is required.

Installation Notes

Surface bolts are typically installed by carpenters or finish hardware contractors using standard hand tools and wood screws appropriate for the door material and thickness. Verify that the strike or keeper is aligned precisely with the bolt barrel before fastening permanently to ensure smooth operation. For exterior applications, confirm the finish and base material are rated for the exposure conditions at the opening. No electrical power shutdown is required for this hardware type.
