Product Description

The NORTON CLOSERS 8501690 is an adjustable surface mount door closer with a full cover and sex nut mounting hardware, finished in dark bronze. It uses a rack and pinion mechanism with hydraulic valve control to regulate door swing speed and closing force. The adjustable backcheck feature helps prevent door damage from hard openings. At 7.3 pounds and measuring 15.2 inches in length, 6.3 inches in width, and 3.7 inches in height, this unit is sized for standard commercial and residential door applications. Installation is typically performed by a licensed door hardware technician or commercial contractor.

This door closer suits commercial and residential entry doors where controlled latching speed, closing speed, and backcheck protection are required. The dark bronze finish integrates with common door hardware finishes found in office buildings, retail spaces, and multifamily residential entrances. The full cover conceals internal components and provides a clean finished appearance. Sex nut mounting hardware is included for parallel arm or other standard surface mount configurations.
