Accentra 3301 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Accentra 3301 door closer be mounted parallel arm on the push side, or is it regular arm only?
All three mountings ship in the box. The 3301 is tri-packed for regular arm (pull side), top jamb, and parallel arm (push side), so one part number covers the opening whichever way the door swings. That is the practical reason to stock it across a building: you order one closer and decide the mounting at the door. It is also non-handed, so there is no left or right version to get wrong.
2) Does the Accentra 3301 need a specific spring size ordered for a 36 inch exterior door?
No sizing decision at the order stage. The 3301 has one adjustable spring covering sizes 1 through 6, so the same closer is set in the field to suit anything from a light interior door up to a wide exterior one. Turn it down for an interior office door where ADA opening force is the concern, up for an exterior door fighting wind or stack pressure. A fixed-size closer forces you to pick before you see the door; this one does not.
3) Will the Accentra 3301 hold the door open, or does it always close?
It always closes. The 3301 is supplied with a non-hold-open arm, so the door returns to latch every cycle. That is what you want on a fire-rated or smoke barrier opening, and on any door that has to stay shut for security. If the job actually calls for the door to park open, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 Series with a tri-packed hold open arm is the hold-open equivalent in the same class of surface closer.
4) Which door closer should be used instead of the Accentra 3301 on a high traffic exterior or heavy entrance door?
The Accentra 3301 is a cast aluminum body closer rated to exceed 25 million cycles with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. For openings specified as heavy duty, the BEST HD8000 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer and the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6. The Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with adjustable spring power, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide uses a cast iron body at heavy duty. The Falcon SC71A is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface mount closer.
5) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Accentra 3301 door closer?
The Accentra 3301 is a surface mounted closer supplied tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting, non-handed, with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. The Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1-6 spring at a medium duty level, which matches the 3301 on both mounting flexibility and spring range. The Dexter DCH4000 is also a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer covering regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting. On the Arrow side, the DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer with regular/parallel arm tri-pack and adjustable spring size 1 to 6, though it ships less cover, where the 3301 includes a slim cover.
6) I need a door closer that holds the door open - can the Accentra 3301 do that, or do I need a different model?
The Accentra 3301 is supplied with a tri-packed non-hold open arm, so it closes the door on every cycle and does not hold it open. For an opening that needs to stay open, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open door closer with a tri-packed hold open arm and a parallel bracket. If the requirement is a delayed close rather than a hold, the Orca BHDC1958DA/PA and BHDC2011DA/PA are delayed action closers with a tri-packed non-hold open arm. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm standard for top jamb mounting.
7) Is the Cal-Royal 400 an acceptable substitute for the Accentra 3301 on a project specifying Grade 1?
No. The Accentra 3301 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, while the Cal-Royal 400 Series commercial hydraulic closer is Grade 2. The Falcon SC91A is also outside a Grade 1 specification at Grade 3. If the drawing calls for Grade 1 from Cal-Royal, the 500S barrier free closer with adjustable back-check and the 700S dual valve sized closer with adjustable tube arm are both Grade 1.
8) What ADA compliant door closer alternatives to the Accentra 3301 cover the full size 1-6 spring range?
The Accentra 3301 is ADA compliant with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, which lets one closer cover interior and heavier openings across a facility. Peers holding the same 1-6 adjustable range include the BEST EHD9000 Series extra heavy duty closer, the Norton Rixson 8501A tri-mount Grade 1 closer, the Arrow DCN325, the LCN 1450, and the Imperial USA TC4300 Series, a heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer. The Calibre CA9901 is a tri-pack arm ADA surface mount closer covering size 2-5.
9) How do I stop a door from slamming into the wall behind it with the Accentra 3301?
Use the backcheck valve. The 3301 has separate, independent latch, sweep, and backcheck intensity valves, so backcheck is dialed in on its own without upsetting closing or latching speed. Backcheck cushions the door in the last part of the opening swing, which is what protects the wall and the hardware on windy exterior openings. The valves are staked, so they cannot be backed out and blown during adjustment.
10) Does the Accentra 3301 come with a cover, or do I have to buy that separately?
A slim cover is included with the 3301, so nothing extra is needed to finish the closer off. Worth knowing when you are cross-shopping: the Arrow DCN325 is a tri-pack Grade 1 closer with the same adjustable 1-6 spring range but is supplied less cover, so that one needs the cover added to look finished.
11) Will the Accentra 3301 meet ADA opening force on an interior office door?
The 3301 is ADA compliant and the adjustable 1 through 6 spring is how you get there: back the spring power down at the door until the opening force measures within the code limit for that opening, then reset latch and sweep speed so it still pulls the door shut. Because spring power is field adjustable rather than fixed, one closer serves both an ADA interior door and a heavier exterior one.
12) What is the difference between the Accentra 3301 and a Sargent 1431 or LCN 1460T closer?
All are surface mounted commercial closers, and the differences are duty class and what ships with them. The 3301 is a Grade 1 tri-pack, non-handed, cast aluminum, with slim cover included and spring sizes 1-6. The Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a heavy-duty Grade 1 closer with adjustable spring power, and the LCN 1460T is a heavy-duty closer in a powder coat finish. If the opening is medium traffic and you want one part that covers regular, top jamb, and parallel mounting, the 3301 is the simpler stocking item; for the heaviest abuse openings the heavy-duty peers are the ones to look at.
13) Can one Accentra 3301 closer be standardized across a whole building's doors?
That is the case for it. Non-handed, tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting, adjustable through spring sizes 1-6, and approved for hollow metal, wood, and aluminum doors, the 3301 covers most openings in a commercial building from one shelf part. For a property manager or MRO buyer that means one SKU on the truck and one set of adjustment instructions for the crew, with only the finish varying by door.
14) What door closer works on an aluminum storefront door if the Accentra 3301 is not the right fit?
The Accentra 3301 is listed for hollow metal, wood, or aluminum doors and mounts regular, parallel, or top jamb. For storefront work specifically, the Norton Rixson 1600 Series aluminum storefront door closer is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer with tri-style mounting. The Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount surface closer with 180 degree swing where the opening needs the wider swing.
15) Is there a lighter duty door closer for interior office and low traffic doors instead of the Accentra 3301?
The Accentra 3301 is built for demanding commercial openings with a cast aluminum body exceeding 25 million cycles. Where the opening is light traffic, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light duty light commercial surface closer with an adjustable spring, and the Arrow DC314 is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer. The LCN 1250 is a light duty surface closer in sizes 1-5 with all-weather fluid and is ADA compliant, as is the 3301.
16) Which door closers besides the Accentra 3301 are supplied with a tri-packed non-hold open arm?
The Accentra 3301 is a non-handed surface closer with a tri-packed non-hold open arm. The same arm function is carried by the Design Hardware 116 Series and 416 Series, both heavy duty, and the Design Hardware 316 Series, which is medium to heavy duty and supplied with a cover. The Orca Hardware BHDC1958RA/PA also uses a tri-packed non-hold open arm, configured as a regular arm with parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors.
17) Which door closers have a slide track or concealed-style arm rather than the surface arm on the Accentra 3301?
The Accentra 3301 uses a tri-packed non-hold open surface arm with rack and pinion operation. Where the opening calls for a track arm instead, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm standard for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer for frame face, pull side mounting with adjustable size 1-6 spring. For a low profile flat arm, the Dormakaba 8616 AF86P FC SNB1 689 is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer with a flat arm non-hold open tri-pack.
18) Which cast aluminum door closers compare to the Accentra 3301 body construction?
The Accentra 3301 uses a cast aluminum body with a slim cover and staked valves. Cast aluminum peers include the Falcon SC61A at light to medium duty and the Falcon SC81A at medium duty, both Grade 1, and the LCN 1450, a medium duty closer with cast aluminum construction and spring sizes 1-6. The Sargent 1331 is a Grade 1 medium duty closer with a universal aluminum body. By contrast the LCN 1261 uses cast iron construction with adjustable spring sizes 1-5.
19) Do the Calibre CA8001P and CA5501 door closers do the same job as the Accentra 3301?
Not quite. The Accentra 3301 is supplied tri-packed so one unit covers regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting, and it is non-handed. The Calibre CA8001P is a size 1 ADA surface mount closer set up for parallel arm only, and the Calibre CA5501 is a standard arm surface mount closer, so each is committed to a single mounting configuration. Both are Grade 1, as is the Calibre CA4001 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer. The Calibre CA9901 is the tri-pack arm option in that group, covering size 2-5.
20) What looks like a substitute for the Accentra 3301 but will not work as one?
The Accentra 3301 is a complete surface mounted door closer. Several items that sit alongside closers are not closers at all: the Arrow DCN500DP parallel drop plate is a mounting plate for the DCN500, and the Stanley Security 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots, the 327 for 1-3/8 or 1-3/4 inch doors up to 150 lbs and the 341 for flush recessed or overlay doors 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 inch. The Stanley A45-501HL is a long hold open arm standard for top jamb, an arm rather than a closer body. If a full closer is what the opening needs, look to the Dexter DCM1000 or DCL2000, both Grade 1 tri-mount surface closers.
21) If a job specifies Corbin Russwin instead of Accentra, which Corbin Russwin closer lines up with the 3301?
The Accentra 3301 is a Grade 1 surface mounted closer with a regular, parallel, or top jamb tri-pack. The Corbin Russwin DC3200 is a Grade 1 surface mounting closer with a regular arm for 1-3/4 inch doors. Heavier Corbin Russwin options with a double lever regular arm for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors include the DC6200 and the DC8200, both Grade 1.
22) Which Dormakaba door closers are comparable to the Accentra 3301 for a medium traffic commercial door?
The Accentra 3301 is a Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6 for commercial openings. From Dormakaba, the 7303 Series is a Grade 1 surface-mounted standard duty closer at a medium duty level available in a painted finish, and the 7414 is a Grade 1 medium duty closer in size 1-4. Sargent's medium duty Grade 1 options in the same range are the 1131 adjustable surface closer for medium-traffic commercial applications and the 1331.
23) What finishes does the Accentra 3301 door closer come in to match existing hardware?
Seven finishes: 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, 689 aluminum painted, 690 dark bronze painted, 691 light bronze painted, 693 black painted, 694 medium bronze painted, and 696 satin brass painted. For a fleet of doors, 689 and 690 are the two that match most commercial lever and exit hardware already in the field, and 613E is the one to pick when the existing hardware is oxidized bronze rather than painted.
