Ives FB51P12MD32D Flush Bolts 12 Inches Metal Doors Pair

Product Description

The IVES FB51P12MD32D is a pair of 12-inch constant latching flush bolts designed for metal door applications. Flush bolts mount into the edge of a door to provide positive top and bottom latching without requiring a separate deadbolt or surface-mounted hardware. The FB51P12MD32D is finished in satin stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance suited to high-traffic commercial and institutional environments. Licensed door hardware installers and commercial locksmiths are the primary trade installing this type of hardware. The set ships as a pair, covering both the top and bottom bolt positions on a single inactive door leaf.

Constant latching flush bolts are used on the inactive leaf of a pair of doors in commercial, institutional, and light industrial settings. They keep the inactive door secured to the frame at the top and bottom while allowing the active leaf to operate independently. Metal door assemblies in office buildings, schools, hospitals, and similar facilities commonly specify this type of hardware. The satin stainless steel finish coordinates with a broad range of architectural door hardware standards for commercial interiors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed door hardware installer or commercial locksmith following the door manufacturer's edge-prep specifications. The door must be properly blocked or secured before routing or drilling for flush bolt pockets. Refer to ANSI and applicable local building codes for door hardware requirements on rated assemblies. Do not install on fire-rated doors unless the hardware is listed for that application.
