Lcn ADAFG Force Gauge Door Hardware Tool

Product Description

The LCN ADAFG is a force gauge designed for measuring door opening and closing forces in commercial and institutional door hardware applications. Technicians use it to verify that door closer hardware meets ADA compliance thresholds and applicable accessibility code requirements. The gauge measures 8.5 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.5 inches in height, making it compact enough for field use. It weighs 0.13 pounds. Door hardware specialists and accessibility compliance inspectors rely on tools like the ADAFG to document force readings during installation inspections or routine maintenance checks.

The ADAFG force gauge is suited for use in high-traffic institutional environments including schools, hospitals, government buildings, and correctional facilities where ADA door force compliance is frequently required or inspected. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for use alongside LCN door closer hardware during installation verification or periodic service calls.

Installation Notes

The ADAFG is a measurement and testing tool, not a component that is permanently installed. Door hardware technicians should use the gauge according to applicable accessibility codes when testing door opening force on newly installed or serviced closers. No power source or tools are required for operation. Ensure the door closer adjustment is complete before taking force readings to avoid inaccurate measurements.
