ABH ABH-9018-US32 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door width do I order the ABH 9000 surface overhead stop for?
The 9000 is sized to the opening, so measure the door before ordering. The size ranges run from 24 inches up through 54 inches of door frame opening, in eight brackets: 24"-29-15/16", 28"-29-15/16", 30"-31-15/16", 32"-35-15/16", 36"-39-15/16", 40"-41-15/16", 42"-43-15/16", and 44"-54". Pick the bracket your actual door width falls inside; a unit sized for a narrower opening will not reach.
2) What is the difference between the stop, hold open, and friction versions of the ABH 9000?
Three functions, and you pick one at order time. Stop simply arrests the door at the set angle and lets it close normally, and it is the only one allowed on a rated fire door. Hold open catches and holds the door at the stop angle until it is pushed free, which is what you want at a loading area or a room propped during the day. Friction applies drag through the arm so the door will stay wherever you leave it in the swing rather than latching at one fixed point. Only the stop unit is fire door legal on this series.
3) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand ABH 9000 overhead stop?
No handing to specify. The 9000 Series is non handed and works on single acting doors either way, interior or exterior. What you do have to get right is the door frame opening size and the function (stop, hold open, or friction).
4) What do I have to specify when ordering an ABH 9000 overhead stop?
Three things settle the order: the door frame opening size bracket that your door width falls in (ranges run from 24 inches up to 54 inches), the function (stop, hold open, or friction), and the finish from the fourteen offered. Handing is not one of them, the unit is non handed. Mounting fasteners including sex bolts for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors come with the unit.
5) What surface overhead stop should I use on a light traffic interior door instead of a heavy duty unit?
For a lighter opening, the Glynn-Johnson 450 Series is a surface overhead door holder and stop rated medium duty, and the Sargent 1540 is a Grade 1 standard duty surface mount door stop and holder with a 110 degree opening. Both are surface mount like the ABH 9000, which is built for heavy weight doors and frequent traffic. If the door is a light interior leaf that does not see constant use, a medium or standard duty unit covers it in the same mounting style.
6) What is the closest heavy duty equivalent to the ABH 9000 Series surface mount overhead stop and holder?
The Glynn-Johnson 90 Series is the nearest match in kind: like the ABH 9000, it is a surface mount overhead door holder and stop rated heavy duty. The ABH 9000 Series is a surface mount overhead stop and holder built for heavy weight doors and frequent traffic, ordered in stop, hold open, or friction function and in door frame openings from 24 inches up to 54 inches. The Norton Rixson 9ADJ Series Checkmate is a second heavy duty surface mount stop and holder, and it is a Grade 1 unit with a 110 degree opening, matching the top of the ABH 9000 standard opening range of 85 to 110 degrees.
7) Which overhead stop and holder meets Buy American Act requirements for a federal project?
The ABH 9000 Series is BAA qualified, meeting Buy American Act requirements for government and institutional projects that require domestic sourcing compliance, and it is UL Listed as a Miscellaneous Fire Door Accessory for wood fire doors rated up to 90 minutes and metal fire doors up to 3 hours in the stop function. Among the heavy duty surface mount alternatives, the Norton Rixson 9ADJ Series, the Norton Rixson 7 Series, and the Sargent 590 are each Grade 1 units, which is the grade line a federal specification most often cites.
8) How far will the ABH 9000 let the door open, and can I adjust the angle?
Standard installation sets the stop anywhere from 85 to 110 degrees, in 5 degree increments, so you can dial the door back off a wall or an adjacent fixture. The unit also has a shock absorbing spring that gives 3 to 5 degrees of cushion before it reaches dead stop, which takes the slam out of a heavy door and spares the hinges and frame.
9) Will an ABH 9000 overhead stop work alongside the door closer already on my door?
Often yes, but it depends on the closer make and mounting. ABH publishes an Overhead Stop and Holder Compatibility Chart covering their units against other manufacturers' closers, and a cross reference chart for matching a 9000 to an existing overhead stop you are replacing. Check the closer model against those before you drill, since arm interference at the head is the usual failure.
10) Is a surface mount overhead stop the right choice, or should I use a concealed one?
Surface mount, like the 9000 Series, mounts on the face of the door and the underside of the frame soffit, so it installs on an existing opening with no door or frame prep beyond drilling, and it is serviceable without taking anything apart. It is visible, which is the tradeoff. Concealed units hide in a channel cut into the door and frame and generally need factory prep, so they are a new door or new frame decision. For a retrofit on doors already hung, surface mount is the practical answer.
11) I only need the door to stop, not hold open. Is a friction stop a substitute for the ABH 9000?
A friction stop is a different device even though it mounts the same way. The DORMA 701F is a standard duty surface applied friction stop covering a 21 to 27 inch door opening, so it provides friction resistance rather than a positive hold open. The ABH 9000 Series is ordered in stop, hold open, or friction function, so the stop-only version answers a stop requirement directly, and its openings run from 24 inches up to 54 inches, which reaches wider doors than the 701F range. On fire doors, the ABH 9000 is UL Listed as a Miscellaneous Fire Door Accessory for wood fire doors rated up to 90 minutes and metal fire doors up to 3 hours in the stop function only.
12) Is a slide track arm overhead holder the same thing as the ABH 9000?
Not quite. The Norton Rixson 10 Series Checkmate is a surface door stop and holder with a slide track arm, rated heavy duty and Grade 1. That track arm construction is what distinguishes it from the ABH 9000 Series, which is a non-handed surface mount unit for single acting doors with standard installation from 85 to 110 degrees of opening in 5 degree increments. If the drawing calls out a slide track arm specifically, the 10 Series is the unit that matches that callout.
13) Can I get an ABH 9000 overhead stop to match the finish on the rest of my door hardware?
Fourteen finishes are offered, so matching an existing set of openings is usually straightforward: Bright Brass, Bright Bronze, Bright Chrome, Bright Stainless Steel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Brass, Satin Bronze, Satin Stainless Steel, and painted Aluminum, Black, Brass, Bronze, Dark Bronze and White. Property managers standardizing a building will usually land on satin stainless or a painted dark bronze.
14) Can an ABH 9000 overhead stop be used on a lead lined door in an X-ray or imaging room?
A lead lining option is published for ABH overhead holders and stops, which is what healthcare imaging suites require so the stop does not break the shielding at the head of the door. Specify the lead lining option with the 9000 when the opening is a shielded one.
