Ives FL3228 Filler Bar 32 Inches Aluminum Finish

Product Description

The IVES FL3228 is an aluminum filler bar designed to close the gap between door hardware components and the door edge or frame surface. Measuring 32 inches in length, 1.6 inches in width, and 0.6 inches in height, this filler bar provides a clean, finished appearance wherever exposed mounting channels or recessed areas need to be covered. Weighing 0.8 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. The aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance suitable for interior door applications. Door hardware installers and finish carpenters typically use this component when completing flush bolt, coordinator, or similar door accessory installations that require a trim piece to conceal hardware mounting areas.

The FL3228 filler bar is intended for use in commercial and residential door hardware assemblies where a 32-inch trim bar is required. It is commonly installed alongside flush bolts, overhead stops, or door coordinators on wood or hollow metal doors. The aluminum finish coordinates with standard architectural hardware finishes in typical interior environments. This component is sold individually and is suited for both new door hardware installations and replacement of worn or damaged filler bars in existing assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or commercial door technician. Before installation, ensure the door is stationary and any associated locksets or flush bolt mechanisms are disengaged. Fasteners should be appropriate for the door substrate material, whether wood, steel, or hollow metal. Follow all applicable local building codes and the hardware manufacturer instructions for the associated door accessory assembly.
