Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for interior and exterior commercial applications. It combines reliable rack-and-pinion mechanics with a cast aluminum body to handle millions of open-close cycles. Ideal for high-traffic facilities, schools, offices and healthcare settings that demand consistent performance and durability.
This non-handed closer installs on either door orientation and projects just 2-1/8" from the surface with its standard full plastic cover. Spring power adjusts from size 1 to 6, while independent hex-key valves control sweep and latch speeds plus backcheck intensity. Temperature-stable fluid operates reliably from -40°F to extreme heat.
