Closers

Overhead closers are versatile and useful. All will close the door, to limit further access or maintain internal environments. Depending on the model chosen, they can also:

• Control the opening and closing speed – useful in windy situations.
• Restrict the door opening angle, to prevent damage to doors and the reveal corners.
• Hold a door open - useful when carrying goods through.
• Delay closing – helpful for parents with buggies or people with limited mobility.

Fire rated doors must be fitted with a self closing device so that the doorset will resist the spread of fire. If these doors need to be held open in normal use, we can fit electro-hydraulic closers linked to the building’s fire alarm system.

Surface mounted closers are available in several finishes, to complement the chosen colour scheme.

Concealed closers are useful in some situations:

• Not visually intrusive – can promote a minimalist look
• Will allow doors to be opened nearer to adjacent walls or other obstructions. The closer body does not protrude from the surface of a door, nor does its arm stick out.
• Can be helpful in anti-ligature regimes.
• Are less susceptible to vandalism.

Limit Stays
Adjustable telescopic limit stays are a budget alternative to closers. They can:

• Restrict the door opening angle to prevent damage to doors and the reveal corners.
• Be tightened to hold a door open.

Powered Operators
Powered operators are often fitted to main entrance doors to allow unimpeded entry and exit of pedestrians from a building. They can also be useful when:

• Carrying goods through
• Pushing trolleys through
• Driving vehicles through
• Linked to access control systems
