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 engineering with a cast aluminum body to withstand millions of cycles. This closer solves the challenge of finding durable, adjustable hardware that works on doors of either hand without reinstallation.
The 8501 fits standard door frames with minimal projection (2-1/8" max) and includes a full plastic cover. Compatible with most door types, it features hex-key adjustable valves for sweep, latch, and backcheck control, plus multi-size spring power settings (1-6). As an authorized Norton dealer, E.D. Locks provides expert sizing and installation support at sales@edlocks.com or 1-877-207-6067 to ensure optimal performance.
