door closing latching cycle

arms

Non-Hold Open

Self-closes door every time door is opened. Auxiliary stop (by others) required except when using the Holder/ Stop arm.

Hold Open

Achieved by means of friction or ball and detent/ roller. Friction hold open has a range of 90° to 180° using template location and mechanical adjustment. Ball and detent or roller hold open is effective in a range of 85° to 110°.

Hold open arm door closers are not permitted to be used on fire door assemblies.

applications

Non-hold open arm shown, hold open application available.

This is the only pull side application where a double lever arm is used. It is the most power-efficient application for a door closer. Sufficient frame, door and/or ceiling clearance must be considered. Since the arm assembly projects directly out from the frame, this application may present an aesthetics issue or be prone to vandalism.

Non-hold open arm shown, hold open application available.

For efficiency reasons this application provides the best alternative to the regular arm application. There must be sufficient frame face and/or ceiling clearance for this application. It requires a top rail on the door of just 2-1/4" (57mm). This application provides the best door control for doors in exterior walls that swing out of a building. The entire door closer and arm assembly project from the frame, similar to the regular arm application, where matters of appearance and malicious abuse can be of concern. Consideration must be given to depth of reveal.

regular arm top jamb parallel arm

Non-hold open arm shown, hold open application available.

This application provides the most appealing design appearance for a surface-mounted door closer having a double lever arm. This also makes it beneficial in vandalism-prone areas. It is on the push side of the door and the arm assembly extends almost parallel to the door. In the closed position, there is very little or no hardware projecting beyond the frame face in most situations. Due to the geometry of the arm it is approximately 25% less power-efficient than a regular arm application. The entire closer and arm assembly are mounted below the frame stop. Top rail clearance dimensions will vary based on the type of cover used.

Non-hold open arm shown, hold open application available.

An enhanced variation of the standard parallel arm assembly that is intended for use in heavy traffic areas where auxiliary door stops are installed. Hold open available — specify hand when ordering.

parallel rigid arm holder/stop arm

Hold open arm shown, non-hold open application available

Similar to the Parallel Rigid arm, this arm incorporates a stop at the arm's soffit plate to dead stop the door at a predetermined degree of door swing between 85° and 110°, in 5° increments. Prior to dead stop the door closer's backcheck feature slows the door speed to reduce the impact of the stop action.

The Holder/Stop arm is intended for use where an auxiliary door stop cannot be utilized and no more than moderate abuse is anticipated. Available with or without hold open. (Hold open strength is adjustable.)

how to order

Notes:

  • Warranty becomes void if door closer is installed on the exterior side of a door in the exterior wall of a building.
  • It is strongly recommended, and required on fire door assemblies, that doors having a door closer be hung on ball bearing or anti-friction hinges or pivots; unless an alternate method is identified in the door manufacturer's listing.
  • Failure to use the correct type and size fasteners may void factory warranty.
  • Fasteners for fire/smoke door assemblies must conform to NFPA 80. In some applications additional fasteners may be mandated by NFPA 80 that are not shipped with standard Yale® product, such as sleeve-nuts/ sex-nuts or through-bolts and grommet nuts.
  • • Contact factory if door weight exceeds 250 lbs.
