Adjustable Power Size 1-6

Half Size Adjustable Power at Sizes: 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6

The closing force for series 3381 & 3581 door closers is adjustable from a size 1 to a size 6, as outlined in ANSI Standard A156.4. When these series of door closers are installed and adjusted to conform to ADA reduced opening force requirements (5 lbs max.) for interior doors, they may not have adequate closing force to reliably close and latch the door. Power adjustments charted on page 4 are recommended where possible, to ensure proper door control.

AN INCORRECTLY INSTALLED OR IMPROPERLY ADJUSTED DOOR CLOSER CAN CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF MISAPPLICATION OR MISADJUSTMENT.
