Premium Ives Door Hardware for Residential and Commercial Projects

Reliable performance for busy entry doors

Ives hardware is widely used on front doors and high-traffic entry points where reliability is critical. Coordinators, flush bolts and specialist strikes help ensure pairs of doors close in the correct sequence, latch securely and meet the functional requirements of retail shopfronts, schools, hospitals, hotels and office buildings. When you buy Ives door hardware online through John Barnes Group, you can select solutions tailored to hinged, rebated or timber and metal doors, and match them to your preferred door closers, locks and hinges.

The Ives range is ideal for both new installations and refurbishment projects, allowing you to upgrade older hardware while maintaining a consistent look across external and internal doors. With options in satin stainless steel, polished stainless, brass and increasingly popular contemporary finishes such as matte black, it’s simple to align your hardware choice with modern, industrial or classic design schemes.

A neat finish for internal doors

Inside the building, Ives accessories help create a clean, professional finish on common area doors, corridor doors and service rooms. Discreet door stops prevent walls and door leaves from damage, flush bolts secure inactive leaves on meeting stiles, and dust proof sockets keep floor hardware neat and easy to clean. For residential applications, these details improve day-to-day usability; for commercial and multi-residential projects, they also reduce maintenance costs and callbacks over the life of the building.

Because Ives is a recognised name in door hardware, it’s a trusted option for builders, architects and facility managers who need consistent, repeatable solutions across multiple units, floors or sites. Selecting Ives for your internal door hardware ensures a professional result that integrates with broader architectural door hardware specifications from brands like Dormakaba, Lockwood, Barben and Zanda.

Hardware built for external environments

External doors face tougher conditions, especially in coastal and high-humidity locations common across Queensland and New South Wales. Many Ives components are available in durable stainless steel finishes that offer strong corrosion resistance, making them a suitable choice for exposed entry doors, balcony doors and external egress routes. When specified correctly, this helps maintain smooth door operation and appearance over time, even in demanding environments.

Working with John Barnes Group, you can choose Ives products that are appropriate for the environmental conditions on your project, from inner-city commercial builds in Brisbane through to regional sites across Australia. Our team can assist with product selection to complement your chosen locks, closers and seals.

 

Ives Products You Can Buy Online

Flush bolts and auto flush bolts

Ives is well known for its range of manual and automatic flush bolts designed for double doors and inactive leaves. These products help maintain security and alignment on pairs of doors, ensuring the active leaf latches correctly into the frame. They are used extensively on corridor doors, service doors and fire and smoke door assemblies where permitted by the relevant building and fire standards.

Options include surface-mounted and concealed styles, as well as top and bottom bolts to suit a variety of door constructions and clearances. By choosing Ives flush bolts, you gain a robust, proven solution that integrates neatly with modern door designs and finishes.

Door coordinators and accessories

On pairs of doors fitted with door closers, a door coordinator ensures the correct closing sequence so that the inactive leaf closes first and the active leaf closes and latches second. Ives door coordinators are commonly used in commercial projects such as healthcare, education, offices and hospitality, where both safety and accessibility are key considerations.

These coordinators are designed to work alongside major closer brands such as Dormakaba and Lockwood, helping you deliver a compliant, functional opening while maintaining a cohesive look. Accessories such as carry bars and mounting brackets are available to fine-tune performance and accommodate different frame and door designs.

Door stops, holders and protection hardware

Impact protection and door control are essential in busy environments. Ives offers a variety of door stops, holders and related accessories to protect walls, skirtings and door leaves from damage. Whether you need a low-profile floor stop for a residential front door or a heavy-duty wall stop for a commercial corridor, you’ll find practical solutions within the Ives range.

These functional components can be paired with design-led levers, pulls and plates from complementary brands such as Barben and Zanda, enabling you to balance aesthetics with durability. In high-traffic spaces, this combination helps keep doors looking tidy while reducing repair and repainting costs.

Floor sockets, strikes and specialist fittings

Many door openings require specialised hardware such as dust proof floor sockets, custom strikes or other auxiliary fittings. Ives manufactures a broad selection of these components to suit timber and metal doors, different bolt diameters and throw lengths, and varying floor finishes.

By standardising on Ives for these accessories, you can simplify your hardware schedule, streamline ordering and ensure a consistent level of quality across the entire project. This is especially beneficial for facility managers and contractors responsible for ongoing maintenance, as replacement parts are easier to identify and source.

 

Matched to Australian Standards and Local Conditions

Most Ives products distributed through reputable Australian channels are designed to align with local expectations for safety, performance and durability. However, because every project is different, it is important to review the technical data on each product page and confirm suitability with your builder, certifier or fire engineer where required.

John Barnes Group focuses on supplying Ives hardware that integrates with wider door hardware packages on Australian projects, including fire doors, smoke doors and accessible paths of travel where applicable. This means you can confidently specify Ives alongside Dormakaba, Lockwood, Barben and Zanda components as part of a coordinated architectural door hardware solution.

Are Ives products suitable for fire-rated doors?

Many Ives components are used on fire and smoke door assemblies when installed in accordance with the door manufacturer’s instructions and relevant test evidence. Because compliance depends on the complete door set, you should always confirm suitability with your fire door supplier, certifier or engineer, and refer to the technical data for each specific Ives product. Our team can help you interpret this information and suggest options that align with typical fire door configurations used across Brisbane, Queensland and New South Wales.


Can I use Ives hardware with Dormakaba or Lockwood door closers and locks?

Yes. Ives accessories such as coordinators, flush bolts and door stops are commonly combined with door closers and locks from brands like Dormakaba and Lockwood. This allows you to build a complete architectural door hardware solution that balances function, compliance and aesthetics. When planning your door schedule, you can also incorporate decorative pulls, levers and accessories from Barben and Zanda to complete the look.


Which finishes are available in the Ives range?

The Ives range typically includes practical finishes such as satin stainless steel and polished stainless, along with options in brass and other architectural finishes on selected products.

Can I use Ives hardware in coastal or high-humidity areas?

For coastal or high-humidity environments, it’s generally best to choose Ives products supplied in stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant finishes. These are better suited to external doors and exposed locations commonly found along the Queensland and New South Wales coast. If you’re unsure which items to select, our hardware specialists can recommend Ives products and complementary seals or closers that perform well in these conditions.


How do I choose the right Ives flush bolt or coordinator?

Selecting the right flush bolt or coordinator depends on factors such as door construction (timber or metal), door thickness, clearances, whether the doors are rebated, and if they are part of a fire or smoke door assembly. Start by reviewing the technical information on the product page, then confirm details with your builder, joiner or door manufacturer. If you need guidance, the John Barnes Group team can help you narrow down the most suitable Ives model for your application.


Do you offer trade or project support for Ives specifications?

Yes. John Barnes Group works closely with architects, builders, locksmiths and facility managers to support project specifications that include Ives hardware.
