Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for commercial interior and exterior applications. It combines reliable rack-and-pinion mechanics with a cast aluminum body to deliver smooth, controlled closing on high-traffic doors. Non-handed installation works on either hand, making it ideal for facilities managing multiple doorways.
The 8501 features a full plastic cover, multi-size spring adjustment (sizes 1-6), and hex-key adjustable valves for sweep speed, latch speed, and backcheck control. It performs reliably in temperatures from -40°F to extreme heat. As an authorized Norton dealer, E.D. Locks provides expert guidance on sizing, installation, and adjustment.
