Description
The Norton 8501 is a heavy-duty surface-mounted door closer designed for interior and exterior applications. It combines reliability with a compact profile (projecting just 2-1/8" from the door surface) and meets demanding commercial standards. Non-handed design works on either hand, making it ideal for facilities managing multiple door types.
The 8501 features a rack-and-pinion mechanism with cast aluminum construction rated for over 10 million cycles. Hex-key adjustable valves let you independently control sweep and latch speeds, while multi-size spring power (sizes 1-6) and adjustable backcheck intensity customize performance for your doors. As an authorized Norton dealer, E.D. Locks provides expert configuration guidance and fast shipping. Contact sales@edlocks.com or call 1-877-207-6067 for installation support.
