Norton Closers 8301H689 Surface Mount Door Closer

Product Description

The NORTON CLOSERS 8301H689 is a surface mount door closer with an adjustable hold-open function, designed for commercial and light industrial door applications. It ships with a slim line cover and sex nut fasteners and features a rack-and-pinion hydraulic mechanism with valve-controlled backcheck. The aluminum alloy body keeps weight manageable while providing corrosion resistance suitable for interior and transitional door installations. Licensed door hardware technicians and commercial contractors handle typical installation. The unit weighs 8.7 pounds and has a finished aluminum appearance that blends with standard commercial door hardware.

This closer is suited for commercial building entrances, interior corridor doors, and office suite entries where a hold-open position is needed for traffic flow or ADA-compliant passage. The adjustable hold-open feature allows the door to remain open at a set position and release on demand or through an integrated trigger. The slim line cover conceals the closer body for a cleaner aesthetic on aluminum storefront or hollow metal door frames.

Key Features

• Adjustable hold-open function for controlled door positioning
• Rack-and-pinion hydraulic mechanism with valve-controlled backcheck
• Slim line cover included for a low-profile, finished appearance
• Sex nut fasteners included for through-bolt mounting applications
• Aluminum alloy body construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• Aluminum finish for compatibility with standard commercial door hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style surface mount door closer for commercial hollow metal, wood, and aluminum-framed doors in standard closer-prep applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed door hardware technicians or commercial contractors familiar with ANSI door closer standards. Confirm door prep dimensions and frame construction before mounting. Hydraulic closer valves should be adjusted only after full mechanical installation is complete and door swing is verified. Do not over-torque sex nuts, as this can crack frame materials on aluminum storefront applications.
