Sargent 281-PS Tb En Surface Door Closer Parallel Arm

Product Description

The SARGENT 281-PS TB EN is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for commercial and institutional door applications. It features a parallel arm mounting configuration with a positive stop mechanism that limits door opening angle to protect adjacent walls, hardware, and the closer arm assembly itself. The unit is finished in sprayed aluminum enamel and is secured using thru bolts for a robust, tamper-resistant installation. This closer is suited for high-traffic commercial openings where consistent, controlled door swing and long service life are required.

This door closer is intended for surface-mount installation on commercial-grade doors in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and similar institutional environments. The parallel arm mounting positions the closer body on the push side of the door, making it a common choice for corridors and vestibules where a regular-arm mount would interfere with clearance. Licensed door hardware specialists and commercial contractors typically handle specification and installation of this product.

• Heavy-duty construction rated for high-traffic commercial openings
• Parallel arm mounting configuration for push-side door applications
• Positive stop feature limits door swing to prevent wall and hardware damage

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified door hardware technician or licensed commercial contractor in accordance with applicable building codes and the door manufacturer's specifications. Ensure the door and frame are properly prepared and that all mounting surfaces are solid before securing thru bolts. Adjust closing speed, latching speed, and backcheck valves after installation using standard hex-key tools. Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended door width and weight ratings for this closer model.
