Prime-line Products N 6583 Bifold Door Top Mount Pivot 2 Pack

Product Description

The PRIME-LINE PRODUCTS N 6583 is a nylon base top mount pivot designed for bifold door installations. A spring-loaded 1/4 inch steel pin inserts into the top pivot bracket above the door, creating the pivot point that allows the bifold panel to swing and fold correctly. This hardware is suited for door panels between 1 inch and 1-3/8 inches thick, with a maximum panel weight of 30 pounds each. Carpenters, finish contractors, and skilled DIYers install this component during new door installations or as a replacement when existing pivots wear out or break. Each pack contains 2 pivots.

This pivot is used in residential interior bifold door applications, including closet openings, laundry alcoves, and room dividers where bifold door systems are employed. The top mount configuration positions the pivot at the head of the door frame. It works with standard bifold door hardware setups where a top bracket is already installed or being installed as part of the same assembly. The 2-count pack covers both panels of a standard single bifold door unit.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or new-installation top mount pivot for bifold doors between 1 inch and 1-3/8 inches thick and weighing up to 30 pounds each. For use with standard top pivot brackets in residential bifold door hardware systems.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require electrical shutoff but does require the door panels to be removed from the track before replacing pivots. The spring-loaded pin should be compressed to seat fully into the top pivot bracket before releasing. Verify that the top pivot bracket is securely fastened to the door frame header before completing the installation. Follow the door manufacturer guidelines for proper alignment to prevent binding during operation.
