ABH 0195 Heavy-Duty 3/4" Offset Pivot Set | US32D Satin Stainless Steel

The ABH 0195 is an architectural-grade 3/4" offset pivot set engineered to support high-traffic interior or exterior doors weighing up to 450 lbs. Defined by a 3/4" distance from the face of the door to the centerline of the pivot point, this set is a premier solution for door restoration and new construction alike. Crafted from high-strength stainless steel, the 0195 is a robust solution for commercial door security that distributes the door's weight directly into the floor, relieving stress on the door frame.

Superior Weight Distribution & Installation Versatility

The ABH 0195 is designed to overcome the structural limitations of traditional hinges in demanding institutional environments. It serves as a proactive solution for door surface repair by providing a stable, floor-supported foundation:

• Jamb-Mounted Floor Support: A key advantage of the 0195 set is that the bottom pivot rests directly on the floor. This "bottom-heavy" design allows the floor to carry the weight of doors up to 4'0" x 8'0", preventing the frame sagging common with heavy-duty openings.
  
• Minimal Field Notching: Because the bottom pivot sits on the floor surface, it typically requires less notching of flooring materials (such as tile or stone) compared to recessed floor closers, making it an efficient solution for door restoration.
• Flexible Undercut Capabilities: Out of the box, the 0195 can accommodate a 3/4" undercut. To achieve this, the bottom arm is surface mounted to the underside of the door; for smaller undercuts, the arm can be mortised.
• Vertical Adjustability: Features a 3/16" vertical arm adjustment that can be performed after installation, ensuring the door is perfectly aligned within the frame for smooth operation and optimal security.
  

Industrial-Grade Stability

To ensure the hardware remains rigid under the stress of 450 lb doors, the ABH 0195 utilizes high-precision components and heavy-duty mounting:

• Heavy-Duty Bearing Construction: Equipped with industrial-grade bearings to ensure fluid, quiet movement through millions of cycles in 24/7 facilities like hospitals and universities.
  
• Architectural Stainless Steel: Finished in US32D (630), the stainless steel base material is naturally corrosion-resistant, making it suitable for both high-end interior lobbies and demanding exterior perimeters.
  
• 3-Hour Fire Rated Protection: This pivot set is UL Listed for use on fire-rated doors up to 3 hours, ensuring your facility meets the most stringent life safety and fire code requirements.
  
• 0180 Top Pivot Included: This complete set comes standard with the ABH 0180 top pivot to ensure perfectly synchronized rotation at both the head and the sill.

Important Handing & Installation Notes

The ABH 0195 is a handed product; please specify Right Hand (RH) or Left Hand (LH) when ordering. For doors exceeding 60" in height, ABH recommends the use of one 019 Intermediate Pivot to prevent door warping and maintain alignment. An additional intermediate pivot should be added for every 30" of additional door height.
