Description
The Norton 8301 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for commercial and institutional buildings requiring reliable, durable closing performance. It solves the challenge of controlling door swing on high-traffic interior and exterior doors while maintaining consistent operation across extreme temperature ranges.
The 8301 features a non-handed rack-and-pinion design with cast aluminum construction, making it suitable for doors of either hand. It exceeds 10 million cycles and includes adjustable sweep speed, latch speed, and backcheck valves controlled via hex key.
