BEST BP80 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the BEST BP80 backplate used for on a door closer installation?
The BP80 is a top jamb backplate for BEST HD8000 series door closers. It goes between the closer body and the frame head when the frame face measures less than 2-7/8 inches (73 mm), which is too narrow to take the closer's mounting pattern directly. It is a mounting plate, not a closer and not an arm, so you still order the HD8000 closer itself.
2) My door frame head is narrower than 2-7/8 inches. Can I still top jamb mount an HD8000 closer?
That is exactly the case the BP80 backplate covers. Top jamb mounting needs enough frame face to land the closer's fasteners, and under 2-7/8 inches (73 mm) you do not have it. The BP80 plate mounts to the frame and gives the HD8000 closer the mounting surface it needs.
3) How much ceiling clearance do I need above the door for a BP80 top jamb backplate?
Two options are built into the same plate. The BP80 has two sets of mounting holes: one set works with a minimum of 1-3/4 inches (44 mm) of ceiling clearance, the other with 3-1/4 inches (83 mm). Measure from the top of the frame to the ceiling or soffit before you drill, then use the hole set that matches.
4) I have a surface applied overhead stop on the door. Will a top jamb closer clear it?
Use the top set of holes on the BP80. That set creates a drop application, lowering the closer enough to clear a surface applied stop or holder. If your stop or holder is mortised into the frame head instead, mount through the regular set of holes.
5) Will the BP80 backplate work with a door closer from another series or brand?
No. The BP80 is made for the BEST HD8000 series and its hole pattern is cut for that closer. Fitting it to another series or another manufacturer's closer means the mounting holes will not line up. If you are working on a different closer, order that manufacturer's own top jamb bracket or drop plate.
6) Do I need a BP80 backplate or a drop plate for my HD8000 closer?
It depends on which side the closer lands. The BP80 is for top jamb mounting, where the closer body sits on the frame head and the arm goes to the door face; it solves a narrow frame face or a stop in the way. If you are mounting the closer on the door itself (regular or parallel arm) and running short on top rail, a top jamb backplate is the wrong part for that condition.
7) What finishes does the BEST BP80 backplate come in?
Three: 689 aluminum painted, 693 black, and 695 dark bronze painted. These are the standard painted closer finishes, so match the plate to the HD8000 closer body you are installing rather than to the door hardware, since the plate sits directly under the closer at the frame head.
8) Can I standardize on the BP80 across a building where the frames vary?
Yes, and that is the point of the two hole patterns. One part number covers both the 1-3/4 inch (44 mm) and 3-1/4 inch (83 mm) ceiling clearance conditions and both the drop and regular mount cases, so a facility running HD8000 closers can stock a single plate in one finish rather than several brackets.
