Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for interior and exterior applications where reliable, smooth closing performance is essential. Its cast aluminum body and rack-and-pinion mechanism deliver over 10 million cycle life, making it ideal for high-traffic commercial and institutional facilities seeking durable, non-handed hardware that installs on either door swing.
This closer suits standard wood and metal door frames with surface mounting that projects just 2-1/8" maximum. Hex-key adjustable valves let you tune sweep speed, latch speed, and backcheck independently, while multi-size spring power (1-6) accommodates varying door weights. Order with confidence from E.D.
