Things to Consider
1. Size and Weight of Door
The 351 Door Closers is non-sized so that closing force can be adjusted in the field to accommodate various door sizes and weights.
2. Interior Application
The standard application is the most efficient in terms of power and control.
3. Exterior Application
The top jamb, corner bracket or parallel arm application should be used. Exterior doors require greater closing forces because of draft conditions. Always place the closers out of the weather.
4. Degree of Opening
Proper arm and position on the door is most important to permit the door to open far enough to allow adequate traffic flow.
5. Function
The 351 Sargent Door Closers are available with hold-open or positive stop arms.
6. Special Condition
Consult factory when special hinges, overhead holders or other specialized hardware is used.
