FINAL ADJUSTMENTS

  • Adjust door speed and latching speed valves to achieve the desired closing time
  • Recommend 6 seconds minimum from 90° to the closed position
  • If backcheck is required, adjust valve to achieve a slight cushioning effect. Auxiliary stop required
  • If closer is equipped with delayed action, regulate valve to achieve the desired delay

7 Adjust closing power to the minimum force required to reliably close and latch door

  • If door is hard to open, decrease power slightly
  • If door does not latch, increase power as required
  • Use the chart as a starting point
  • Doors adjusted with high closing power to overcome strong draft conditions may exceed ADA standards
