Description
The Sargent 281 Powerglide Series is a heavy-duty cast iron surface door closer engineered for interior and exterior applications. Designed for architects and building owners who demand ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 performance, it solves the challenge of reliable door control across diverse mounting configurations while meeting fire-rated door requirements and ADA accessibility standards.
The 281 accommodates standard, top jamb, parallel, and track installations with one non-handed closer body and adjustable spring power (sizes 1-6, factory set to size 3). It retrofits existing Sargent 250 and 1250 Series installations and includes pressure relief valves for both cycles.
