Door Closer Sizes
DC8000 Series
Factors in Determining Closer Size
1 – Weight and Height of Door
Doors vary in weight from light hollow-core wood doors to heavy metal doors. Door sizes listed in the chart are based on doors of standard weight and height. Extra-light or extra-heavy weight or unusual height must be compensated for. Contact factory if door weight exceeds 250 lbs.
2 – Draft and Wind Conditions
Draft and wind conditions are perhaps the most important factors to consider in determining the closer size required. Sizes listed in the chart apply to normal conditions. Stairwells, air conditioning, building construction, and door location can cause strong draft and wind conditions; these may necessitate adjusting spring power to a larger size or using a closer one size larger.
3 – Location of Closer
The degree of door opening required determines the location of the closer on the door. Closer sizes listed in the chart are based on 180° opening.
4 – Special Conditions
Deep reveals require optional extended arms. A top jamb plate is required when the jamb is too narrow for a normal top jamb mounting.
5 – Code Compliance
A multi-sized, fully adjustable closer such as the DC8200 closer provides the greatest flexibility in balancing barrier-free access, security and life safety codes. However, when a manual closer is installed and adjusted to comply with ADA or any other reduced opening force requirements, it may no longer have sufficient power to close and latch the door reliably.

DC8000 Series
Backcheck
Slows a door at approximately 70° of the opening cycle, by providing cushioned resistance to a forceful opening. Designed to protect people and objects behind the door and to prevent damage to the closer, hardware, and wall. Intensity can be increased or decreased. Not intended to act as a stop.
Closing Speed
The speed at which a door swings from the full open position to within a few degrees of latching. See Latching Speed.
Corrosion Protection
Additional painted covering on all external parts to deter oxidation and corrosion.
Delayed Action
Slows door closing speed between maximum opening and approximately 70°. Often specified to meet barrier-free codes which require longer closing times.
Door Stop
A device to stop the swing of a door.
Hold Open
Maintains door at a particular degree of opening. A mechanical hold-open may not be used on labeled fire doors, which must be self-closing.
Latching Speed
The speed of the door during the last few degrees of closing. Allows latching and prevents slamming.
Mounting
The method by which a closer is attached to the door and frame.
Backcheck Valve
Valve that changes the degree of door angle where backcheck occurs.
Multi-Sized Closer
A closer whose spring design allows full adjustment of the spring power size from 1 through 6.
Universal Quik-Install™ Mounting Bracket
Unique bracket which simplifies installation and minimizes installer fatigue.
Sex Nuts and Bolts (SNBs)
Through-bolts required for all non-steel-reinforced fire doors, and recommended for non-reinforced wood and mineral core doors.
Spring Power
A measurement of closing force, or the ability to overcome draft, air pressure, weight or other resistance to door closing.
Star Punch
An eight-point hole in the closer arm, permitting spindle pre-loading. Provides full functioning of backcheck and delayed action valves.
Universal Mounting
The ability of a closer to accommodate either hand for regular, top jamb or (using a bracket) parallel arm mounting.

Note:
- Before installing a door closer, verify the accessibility, fire, and life-safety requirements that are in effect. This includes the mounting height and projection into the clear opening. Check the adopted state and local building codes and consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
- To maintain the warranty and ensure proper operation of the product, follow the installation instructions & templates and install on the inside of the building.
- Consult NFPA 80 for the hinge requirements on a fire door.
- Failure to use fasteners supplied with closer may void factory warranty.
- Optional fasteners are available for a variety of applications. Consult the door and frame manufacturer to ensure the proper fasteners are used to maintain certifications.
- Sizing charts are based on 1-3/4" x 7' standard weight doors swinging to 110°. Other application conditions (e.g. larger door heights or weight) may require larger size closer. Adjusting the spring power to meet the low opening force requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act or ANSI/BHMA Standard A117.1, may not provide adequate closing power to dependably close and latch the door in some conditions (i.e. air movement from wind gusts or building stack pressure).

Suggested Specification
Door closers shall be of rack and pinion construction with a cold headed heat-treated steel spindle and a sintered steel piston precision machined and heat treated. The case shall be of cast iron. Closers shall have a heavy-duty, forged steel main arm.
Optional arms shall include parallel, hold open, heavy-duty, heavy-duty hold open, heavy-duty reversible backstop, heavy-duty reversible backstop with hold open, heavy-duty Unitrol ® , heavy-duty Unitrol with hold open, deep reveal, top jamb track and stop mounted track.

Fully adjustable spring power to accommodate sizes 1 through 6.
Spring power shall be adjustable by one half size over minimum for each size.
All sizes shall be accommodated in one closer body. Closing shall be controlled by two valves — one to control closing speed and one to control latching speed. Valves shall be concealed against unauthorized adjustment and be non-critical with "O" ring seals.
Delayed action shall be available and shall be accomplished with a separate valve.
Closers shall be available with an adjustable backcheck intensity valve with a safety feature that automatically relieves internal pressure when backcheck has reached the desired adjustment level. Valves shall be accessible without removing the closer from the door.
Closers shall be available with a backcheck intensity valve. Backcheck begins at approximately 70 degrees of door opening for all applications. This valve shall be operative on regular, top jamb, parallel arm, and track type mountings.
Closers shall be surface applied with rectangular cover, and shall be devoid of manufacturer's trademarks. Closers shall not project over 2-3/16", and shall be capable of mounting on 1-3/4" top rail or inverted mounting on 1-3/4" top jamb. Full cover and full metal cover with security fasteners shall be available. When required, metal covers shall be available in plated finishes. Closers without hold open shall be regularly furnished with power adjustment arm bracket capable of providing a 15% power adjustment. A Quik-Install™ mounting bracket to attach the closer shall be regularly furnished. Closers not having a mounting bracket shall not be acceptable. Hydraulic fluid shall be of a type requiring no seasonal valve readjustment due to extreme temperature variations.
Closers mounted regular arm, top jamb and parallel arm shall allow for full 180° door opening.
Closers with non-hold open arms shall be listed by Underwriters Laboratories.
All closers with metal covers shall be available in architectural finishes to match corresponding door hardware.
