Universal Door Closer DC8210 Tri-Pack Standard 🕏
DC8200 Series Multi-Sized from 1 through 6
IMPORTANT:
- An improperly installed or incorrectly adjusted door closer may cause property damage and/or personal injury; and will void product warranty.
- To avoid personal injury, DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THIS DOOR CLOSER BODY.
- Door closers must be securely fastened to a properly reinforced door and frame with fasteners provided.
- Door closers with the "A1" HOLD OPEN ARM option are not permitted to be installed in fire door assemblies.
BEFORE INSTALLING:
- The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that doors having door closers have an opening force not to exceed 5 lbf. Use standard templating for regular arm and parallel arm applications. Jamb mounted applications use the template for 140° door opening to achieve the required opening force.
- The door closer's power size adjustment feature may require adjustment to its lowest setting to comply with ADA opening force guidelines.
- An auxiliary door stop, by others, is strongly recommended to avoid damage to the door closer and adjacent property.
- Doors should be hung on ball bearing or anti-friction hinges/pivots.
- Door closer must not be installed on the exterior of a door in an exterior wall of a building.
- ADA compliant closers are: DC8200, DC8210, DC8220.
