Ives FB45826 Manual Flush Bolt Metal Door Bright Chrome

Product Description

The IVES FB45826 is a manual flush bolt designed for use on metal doors. Flush bolts mount into the door edge and allow a door leaf to be secured at the top or bottom of the frame without a visible surface-mounted latch. This unit features a bright chrome finish and measures 1 inch in width, making it suited for standard commercial and residential door applications. It is typically installed by finish carpenters, locksmiths, or general contractors working on paired door assemblies. The bolt operates manually, requiring the user to slide the bolt by hand to engage or disengage the strike pocket in the frame or floor.

The FB45826 is intended for metal door installations where a clean, low-profile edge bolt is required. Common applications include double-door entry systems, exit corridors, and interior paired doors in commercial and light commercial construction. This type of hardware is frequently specified in projects where inactive door leaves must remain secured without a surface-mounted deadbolt or rim latch. The bright chrome finish coordinates with standard architectural hardware trims used in office, retail, and institutional settings.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, locksmith, or commercial door hardware installer. The door must be properly prepared with a routed or milled pocket along the edge to accept the bolt body before mounting. Ensure the door is removed from the hinge or securely propped before routing or drilling. Verify alignment of the bolt with the strike cup or floor socket before final fastening to ensure smooth operation.
