Dorma ITS9613689 Concealed Door Closer Aluminum

Product Description

The DORMA ITS9613689 is a non-hold-open concealed door closer finished in aluminum, designed for installation within the door leaf and frame rather than surface-mounted on the door face. This type of closer provides controlled, code-compliant door swing and return, keeping the hardware concealed for clean architectural appearance. It is installed by commercial door hardware specialists and finish carpenters in new construction or retrofit projects where aesthetics and ADA-compliant door operation are priorities. At 6.7 pounds, the unit ships as a single-piece assembly ready for mortise-style installation.

Concealed door closers like the ITS9613689 are specified on commercial interior and exterior doors where exposed surface hardware is undesirable — common in hotels, hospitals, office buildings, schools, and high-end retail environments. The non-hold-open configuration means the door returns to the fully closed and latched position on every cycle, which is a standard requirement for fire-rated corridor doors and access-controlled openings. Installation requires routing a mortise pocket into the door edge and frame, making this a job for qualified commercial door hardware installers.

Key Features

• Concealed installation keeps all closer mechanism hidden within the door and frame
• Non-hold-open function ensures automatic door return to closed position on every cycle
• Aluminum finish provides a neutral, architecturally compatible appearance at the door edge
• Single-piece unit sold individually (EA) for straightforward procurement
• Compact profile at 19 inches length supports a range of standard door widths

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style concealed door closer for commercial door applications requiring a mortise-pocket installation in the door leaf and frame. No specific compatible door or frame model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation of concealed door closers should be performed by a licensed commercial door hardware installer or finish carpenter familiar with mortise routing and door prep specifications. Power down or disable any electrified hardware on the door assembly before beginning work. Verify that the door and frame material and thickness are sufficient to accept the mortise pocket dimensions before cutting. Consult local building codes and ANSI/BHMA standards for door closer force and closing-speed requirements, particularly on fire-rated or ADA-regulated openings.
