ABH ABH-1013A-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How do I pick the right size ABH 1000A overhead stop for my door width?
Order the 1000A by the door frame opening width, not the door leaf you guess at. Five ranges cover it: 27 inches to 29-15/16 inches, 30 inches to 35-15/16 inches, 36 inches to 39-15/16 inches, 40 inches to 43-15/16 inches, and 44 inches to 52 inches. Measure the frame opening, find the band it falls in, and order that one. A standard 36 inch opening lands in the 36 inch to 39-15/16 inch range.
2) What is the difference between the stop, hold open, and friction functions on the ABH 1000A?
Three functions, and you pick one at order time. Stop only arrests the door at the set degree of opening and lets it close normally. Hold open catches and holds the door at that point until someone pulls it free. Friction gives resistance through the swing so the door stays wherever you leave it, without a positive catch, which is what you want on a door in a windy exterior opening where a hard hold-open is a nuisance. All three are 1000A units; the function is a separate choice from the size and finish.
3) Can I change the degree of opening on the ABH 1000A after it's installed?
Yes. Opening control on the 1000A adjusts in the field from 85 degrees to 110 degrees in 5 degree increments, so if the door is hitting a wall or a casework return at the set angle you can pull it back a notch without replacing the unit. That's the difference between this and a fixed-angle stop: you can dial in each opening after the doors are hung and the furniture is in.
4) The door edge cannot be morticed for a concealed stop. What surface-mounted overhead stop should be used instead?
A surface unit is the alternative when the door edge cannot take a concealed template. The Glynn-Johnson 70 Series is a heavy duty surface overhead door holder and stop with an 85 to 110 degree hold-open range, matching the ABH 1000A field-adjustable 85 to 110 degree range. The Glynn-Johnson 79 Series is an extra heavy duty surface overhead holder and stop. On the Norton Rixson side, the 10 Series Checkmate surface stop and holder is offered as the 10-236 and the 10-346 at medium duty, and the 10-336 is a standard duty surface overhead stop with adjustable opening control carrying Grade 1. Surface units mount on the door face and frame rather than inside the door edge, so they are visible where the ABH 1000A concealed body is not.
5) What is the closest heavy-duty concealed overhead stop and holder to the ABH 1000A?
The Glynn-Johnson 100 Series is the nearest match. It is a heavy duty concealed overhead door holder and stop, multi-function and non-handed, the same combination the ABH 1000A covers with its stop, hold open and friction functions in a non-handed concealed body. The Sargent 690 is a second heavy duty overhead concealed stop/holder carrying ANSI Grade 1, and the Norton Rixson 1 Series Checkmate is a heavy duty concealed stop and holder with a 110 degree opening, which is the top of the ABH 1000A field-adjustable 85 to 110 degree range. All three mount concealed in the door edge, so the swap does not change the door face.
6) Is there a lighter-duty concealed overhead stop for a low-traffic interior door instead of the ABH 1000A?
Yes. The ABH 1000A is built for frequent traffic and heavy weight doors, which is more unit than a low-traffic interior opening needs. The Glynn-Johnson 410 Series is a medium duty concealed overhead door holder and stop. The Sargent 1530 is a concealed mount door stop/holder with a 110 degree opening at medium duty, carrying Grade 1. For a stop-only concealed application, the Don-Jo 3023 and 3024 are standard duty concealed overhead door stops in satin stainless steel, sized for 30 inch and 36 inch doors respectively, and the DORMA 711F is a standard duty concealed friction stop for a 21 to 27 inch door opening.
7) Can the ABH 1000A replace a competitor's concealed overhead stop already in the door?
ABH publishes a cross reference chart for its overhead stops and holders that maps competitor models to the ABH equivalent, and a template drawing for the 1000A prep. Work the cross reference for your existing model first, then check the 1000A template against the mortise pocket already cut in the door and frame. If the existing prep is a different length or channel width, the swap means new prep, not a drop-in.
8) What do I need to specify to order an ABH 1000A overhead stop correctly?
Three choices settle the order on the 1000A: the door frame opening size band (five ranges from 27 inches up to 52 inches), the function (stop, hold open, or friction), and the finish. Handing isn't one of them, since the unit is non-handed. If the opening is fire rated, the function has to be stop. If the door is lead lined, add the lead lining option.
9) Does the ABH 1000A meet Buy American requirements for a government job?
Yes. The 1000A Series is BAA qualified, which is what a federal, municipal, or publicly funded institutional spec is usually asking for on door hardware. It's a commercial grade product, not a residential one, and it's the concealed mount version of the overhead stop, so if the spec calls for concealed overhead stops on a BAA project this line answers it.
10) Will the ABH 1000A damage my door or frame when it hits the stop?
There's a spring in the unit that gives 3 to 5 degrees of cushion before the dead stop, so the door decelerates instead of slamming into a hard stop at full swing. That's the detail that matters on heavy doors in frequent traffic openings, where the shock at the stop is what eventually racks the frame or works the top hinge loose.
11) Can I get an ABH 1000A for a lead lined door in an X-ray room?
A lead lining option is published for ABH overhead holders and stops, which is the question that comes up on imaging suites and radiology corridors where the door core is lead lined and a standard concealed prep breaks the shielding. Ask for the lead lining option against the 1000A when you order, and specify the frame opening width and function as normal.
12) Which overhead stop should be specified for a government job requiring Buy American compliance?
The ABH 1000A is BAA qualified, so it meets Buy American Act requirements on qualifying government and institutional projects, and it is a commercial-grade unit UL Listed as a Miscellaneous Fire Door Accessory for wood fire doors up to 90 minutes and metal fire doors up to 3 hours in the stop function. It is ordered by door frame opening from 27 inches through 52 inches, so it covers standard single-leaf openings and wide leaves. Where the specification is written to an ANSI grade instead, the Sargent 690 heavy duty overhead concealed stop/holder and the Norton Rixson 1 Series Checkmate heavy duty concealed stop and holder both carry Grade 1.
13) What is the Dormakaba equivalent to an ABH 1000A overhead stop and holder?
For a heavy duty requirement, the DORMA 900 Series covers heavy duty stops and holders, the same class as the ABH 1000A, which is built for frequent traffic and heavy weight doors. For a lighter interior opening needing only a friction check, the DORMA 711F in the 700 Series is a standard duty concealed friction stop for a 21 to 27 inch door opening; the ABH 1000A friction function starts at a 27 inch to 29-15/16 inch door frame opening, so on narrow leaves under 27 inches the 711F reaches a size the ABH does not.
14) What finishes does the ABH 1000A concealed overhead stop come in?
Fourteen finishes cover the 1000A: Bright Brass, Bright Bronze, Bright Chrome, Bright Stainless Steel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Brass, Satin Bronze, Satin Stainless Steel, plus painted options in Aluminum, Black, Brass, Bronze, Dark Bronze and White. On a concealed unit the visible metal is the arm and the soffit plate at the head, so most facilities match it to the frame or to the other door hardware in the opening rather than agonizing over it. The painted options are the usual pick when the frame itself is painted.
15) Can a double-acting door use the ABH 1000A, or is a different overhead stop needed?
The ABH 1000A is for single acting doors only, interior or exterior, non-handed. A double acting opening needs a different device. Among heavy duty overhead units, the Glynn-Johnson 79 Series is an extra heavy duty surface overhead holder and stop and the Glynn-Johnson 70 Series is a heavy duty surface holder and stop with an 85 to 110 degree hold-open range; confirm the swing requirement against the unit before ordering. For a single acting door where only the finish is the question, the ABH 1000A runs from Bright Brass and Satin Stainless Steel through Painted Black, Painted White and Oil Rubbed Bronze, while the Don-Jo 3023 and 3024 concealed stops are satin stainless steel.
