Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for commercial interior and exterior doors. It combines reliable rack-and-pinion mechanics with a cast aluminum body to handle demanding daily use. Non-handed installation works on either hand door, making it ideal for multi-door facilities, offices, and buildings requiring consistent, dependable door control.
The 8501 fits standard door frames with full plastic cover protection and projects just 2-1/8" from the door surface. Spring power ranges from size 1-6, with independent hex-key adjustments for sweep, latch, and backcheck speeds. All closer fluid maintains performance from -40 F to high heat.
