Rixson Floor Closers

Key Features

• Concealed floor‑mounted design keeps the closer out of sight, preserving clean architectural lines on glass, metal, or wood doors while still providing full closing control.
• Offset hung and center hung options to accommodate standard, deep‑reveal, and glass door installations, including single‑acting and double‑acting swing configurations.
• Heavy‑duty capacities with models rated for doors up to 1500 lbs (lead‑lined and extra‑heavy doors), as well as standard models for 200–350 lb doors.
• Adjustable closing, latching, and backcheck valves (on appropriate series) to fine‑tune door speed, control, and protection.
• Selective hold‑open or no‑hold‑open configurations for controlling whether the door can stay at a set open position, depending on code and application.
• Wide range of series (such as 20, 27, 28, and 30) to cover standard duty, heavy duty, offset hung, and center hung use cases.

Key Benefits

• Superior door support and longevity: By carrying the door weight at the floor, Rixson floor closers reduce stress on frames and hinges, extending system life.
• Improved aesthetics: Concealed installation eliminates bulky surface closers, ideal for glass entrances, high‑end lobbies, and design‑sensitive interiors.
• Smooth, controlled operation: Precision hydraulics and mechanical design deliver consistent closing and latching, improving user experience and security.
• Supports very heavy and specialized doors: Extra heavy‑duty models handle lead‑lined doors, oversized doors, and high‑traffic openings that exceed typical closer capacity.
• Flexible design options: Single‑acting, double‑acting, offset, and center‑hung models allow you to match the closer to the exact door and frame configuration.

Applications

• Hospital and x‑ray suites with lead‑lined, high‑weight doors that require offset-hung heavy‑duty floor closers.
• Glass storefronts and aluminum entrances, where center-hung floor closers maintain a minimal, frameless appearance.
• Commercial offices and high‑rise buildings where lobby, stair, and corridor doors benefit from concealed, low‑maintenance closers.
• Museums, hotels, and premium retail that require a combination of strong door control and unobtrusive hardware.
