Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for interior and exterior applications where reliable, consistent closing performance is essential. Built with a cast aluminum body and rack-and-pinion mechanism, it handles millions of cycles while maintaining smooth operation across extreme temperatures from -40°F to high heat.
This non-handed closer installs on either door hand and projects only 2-1/8" from the door surface with standard cover. Adjust spring power (sizes 1-6), sweep speed, latch speed, and backcheck intensity independently using hex key valves.
