Product Description:
Rixson Pivots
 
M190 Load Bearing Offset Intermediate Pivot

Introduction

Pivot sets provide the best possible means of hanging a door. They are designed to work with the laws of physics to provide long-lasting performance and reliability.
The weight of the door is supported entirely by the bottom arm, which is directly connected to the pivot spindle. This hanging means provides several important advantages:
• Fasteners on the door and frame are in shear rather than tension (as with hinges) and are less likely to pull out overtime. This creates less stress on the frame assembly, prevents door sagging and allows the door to swing with less resistance from friction.
• A door supported in this manner relies on the strength of the floor to carry the weight, not the frame. This allows extremely heavy doors to be hung in an opening and allows door adjustment throughout the life of the building to compensate for settlement.

Questions and Answers
Q: Is the rixon 190 used by itself? Why would floor mount be necessary?
A: The Rixson M190 Intermediate Pivot can and is used without top and bottom pivots. the reason to use the floor pivot is because the floor carries the weight of the door. That is the inherent advantage of all such types of hardware where the earth bears the weight.

I've done this in the past you'll do that in instances where you do not have a floor condition that you can attach to and in those same openings you'll have an arched top so in those instances you are relegated to intermediate pivots only - be mindful to always order the load-bearing version when doing this (use the M190 and not the M19).
