BEST BEST-HD7016 ARP 600 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the BEST HD7000 door closer work on a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes. The HD7000 surface closer is set up for 1-3/4 inch thick doors, and the standard SNDTPK fastener package ships with self-drilling, self-tapping and machine screws for that thickness, plus thru-bolt options if the door skin won't hold screws alone. Thru-bolting is the usual call on hollow metal doors that already have holes in them or on high-traffic openings where pull-out is a concern.
2) Do I have to order the BEST HD7000 closer handed, or does one part number cover both left and right doors?
The closer body is non-handed and covers regular, top jamb and parallel arm mounting, so the same unit works either hand. Handing only enters in two places: the metal and lead lined covers come left hand or right hand, and the double egress track arms (TDE and TDEH, pull side frame mounted) require you to specify left or right. Standard full plastic cover with a conventional arm, no handing needed.
3) Which arm do I order for a BEST HD7000 on a top jamb mount with a deep reveal?
Reveal depth picks the arm. For a 4 to 8 inch reveal, the ARJ top jamb round form arm or the FHJ friction hold open version covers it. For a shallower 3-1/2 to 6-1/2 inch reveal with a built-in stop, use ISJ, or ISJH if you want hold open with the stop. Measure the reveal (frame face back to the door face) before you order; the wrong arm won't reach or won't clear.
4) I need a door closer that holds the door open. What are my options on the BEST HD7000?
Several, and they behave differently. FH and FHP are friction hold open arms, adjustable by friction. PH and PHP are plunger hold open arms for regular/top jamb and parallel/top jamb. If you want hold open combined with a positive stop, DST, ISH, SISH and SISJH give you both in one arm. On track applications, TH, FTH, PTH and JTH are the hold open versions. And EMF is an electric hold open track arm, which is what you want if the hold open has to release on a fire alarm signal.
5) Is the BEST HD7000 ADA compliant for a barrier-free opening?
The HD7000 meets ADA barrier-free accessibility requirements, and the spring power is field adjustable across sizes 1 through 6 so you can dial the opening force down to what the accessible route needs while still getting the door latched. On an exterior or a heavy leaf, you're balancing those two, which is why the adjustable range matters more than a fixed-size closer here.
6) I have a pair of double egress doors. Which BEST HD7000 arm do I order?
Double egress needs the TDE track arm, pull side frame mounted, or TDEH for the hold open version. Both require you to specify handing, left or right, and on a double egress pair each leaf swings the opposite way, so the two leaves take opposite hands. Order one of each rather than two of the same. Double egress pairs are common in hospital corridors and cross-corridor smoke partitions.
7) What can I use instead of the BEST HD7000 if the opening needs a concealed slide track arm on the pull side?
The HD7000 covers track applications through arm options such as T track arm pull side door mounted, JT jamb track pull side frame mounted, and their hold open versions. If a different brand is required for the same application, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer supplied with a slide track arm as 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 mounting on the pull side with size 1-6 adjustment.
8) What is a straight Grade 1 equivalent to the BEST HD7000 door closer from another manufacturer?
The Norton Rixson 8501A is a close match: it is a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with adjustable size 1-6 spring power and medium duty rating, the same adjustable-size and duty profile as the HD7000. The Sargent 1131 and Sargent 1331 are also Grade 1 medium duty surface closers, with the 1331 built on a universal aluminum body. All three cover regular, top jamb, and parallel arm openings the way the HD7000 does.
9) I need a heavier closer than the BEST HD7000 for an abused exterior opening - what should I use instead?
The HD7000 is rated medium duty. For heavier service, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide and Sargent 281 Powerglide are Grade 1 heavy duty surface closers, the 281 with a cast iron body. The Falcon SC71A and the LCN 1460T are also heavy duty, and the Dorma 8616 is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer supplied with a flat arm in a tri-pack. Any of these steps up the duty rating while staying a surface mounted closer.
10) Which closers besides the BEST HD7000 offer a factory delayed action option?
The HD7000 offers delayed action as a selectable option with an independently adjustable valve. Among other brands, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA and BHDC2011DA are delayed action closers supplied with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the requirement is hold open rather than delayed close, the Orca BHDC1958HO comes as a tri-packed hold open arm and the Accentra 51 Series is a tri-packed hold open closer adjustable size 1-6.
11) What is the difference between the BEST HD7000 and a size 1-4 closer like the Accentra 1101BF or Arrow DCN314?
Spring range is the difference that decides the opening. The HD7000 adjusts across sizes 1 through 6, so one body covers narrow interior leaves up through wide or exterior doors. The Accentra 1101BF adjusts sizes 1 through 4, as does the Arrow DCN314, which is a Grade 1 light duty closer shipped less cover with a regular and parallel arm tri-pack. The Arrow DCN325 covers sizes 1 through 6 if the wider range is what the door needs.
12) I want a lead lined cover for an x-ray room door - does the BEST HD7000 do that, or do I need a different closer?
The HD7000 offers a lead lined cover as a selectable cover option in left hand and right hand versions, alongside the standard full plastic, slim plastic, and metal covers. Among comparable Grade 1 closers, the Dexter DCH1000 is supplied with a full cover and the Design Hardware 316 Series comes with a cover, but the lead lined shielded cover is what distinguishes the HD7000 for a radiology or imaging opening.
13) The spec calls for a Grade 1 barrier free closer - does the BEST HD7000 meet it and what else does?
The HD7000 is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 with an ADA barrier-free compliant design and UL and CUL listings. Cal-Royal offers two barrier free alternates: the 500S is a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, and the N900PBF is a Grade 1 hydraulic barrier free surface closer in the 900 Series. The Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 ADA surface mount closer with a tri-pack arm covering sizes 2 through 5.
14) I need a top jamb closer for a deep reveal - does the BEST HD7000 cover that or is there a better fit?
The HD7000 addresses deep reveals directly: the ARJ top jamb round form arm and FHJ top jamb friction hold open arm cover 4 to 8 inch reveals, and the ISJ, ISJH, SISJ, and SISJH heavy duty top jamb arms cover 3-1/2 to 6-1/2 inch reveals with stop or compression stop. Comparable tri-mount closers such as the Dexter DCH4000 and Dexter DCM1000 mount regular, parallel, or top jamb, and the Stanley A45-501HL is a long hold open arm for top jamb mounting.
15) Is a Grade 2 closer like the Cal-Royal 400 an acceptable swap for the BEST HD7000?
Only if the opening does not require Grade 1. The HD7000 carries ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certification with UL and CUL listings. The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer, and the Falcon SC91A is Grade 3. If the door schedule or a fire-rated opening calls for Grade 1, stay with Grade 1 alternates such as the Cal-Royal 700S dual valve sized closer with adjustable tube arm or the Calibre CA4001.
16) Which alternate to the BEST HD7000 supports an electric hold open for a fire alarm tie-in?
The HD7000 offers the EMF electric hold open track arm, which releases the door on signal, alongside mechanical hold opens such as the FH friction hold open arm and PH plunger hold open arm. Among the comparable set, hold open is mechanical: the Accentra 51 Series is a tri-packed hold open closer in sizes 1 through 6, and the Orca BHDC1958HO is a tri-packed hold open closer for 1-3/4 inch doors. For an alarm-released opening, the EMF arm on the HD7000 is the option to specify.
17) What does backcheck do on a door closer, and does the BEST HD7000 have it?
Backcheck is standard on the HD7000, with an adjustable POS positioning valve. It cushions the door near the end of the opening swing so a gust of wind or someone shoving it open doesn't slam the leaf into the wall and tear out the hinges or the frame. That's the failure mode in high-wind entrances and busy corridors. Backcheck performs consistently across regular, top jamb and parallel arm mounting, so you aren't giving it up by choosing a different mount.
18) Do I need the delayed action option on a BEST HD7000 closer?
Delayed action is worth ordering where people need extra time to get through the opening: patient rooms, carts and gurneys, wheelchair users, stockroom doors on a hand truck. The valve holds the door near open for an interval, then normal closing takes over, and it adjusts independently of closing speed. It's an ordering choice on the HD7000, yes or no at the time you buy, so decide before the order goes in.
19) Which cover should I order with the BEST HD7000, and when do I need the lead lined one?
Full plastic cover is standard. A slim plastic cover is there when the standard cover looks bulky against a narrow head rail or a tight frame. Metal covers give you a harder surface for abuse-prone corridors. The lead lined cover is a radiology answer: it's for closers on X-ray and imaging room doors where the shielding has to be continuous. Metal and lead lined covers are handed, so you order them left hand or right hand.
20) Can I use a track arm instead of a standard projecting arm on the BEST HD7000?
Yes, and the track choice depends on where you can mount. T and TH are pull side door mounted. JT and JTH are pull side frame mounted. FT and FTH mount push side transom, PT and PTH push side soffit. Track arms sit tighter to the door and are harder to grab or vandalize than a projecting arm, which is why they get specified in schools and detention-adjacent spaces. On double egress pairs, TDE and TDEH are the track arms built for it, and those need handing.
21) Do I need a separate door stop if I install the BEST HD7000, or can the closer arm stop the door?
You can get the stop in the arm. DS and SDS are heavy duty parallel arms with a stop, IS and SIS are the regular/top jamb equivalents, and ISJ and SISJ are the top jamb versions for a 3-1/2 to 6-1/2 inch reveal. Add hold open to any of those with the H variants (DST, ISH, SISH, ISJH). That said, an arm stop takes the abuse of the door being thrown open into the closer body, so on a high-traffic exterior a wall or floor stop alongside it is still the durable arrangement.
22) Will the BEST HD7000 hold up on an exterior door in cold weather?
It uses all-weather hydraulic fluid, which is what keeps the closing speed from swinging wildly between a winter morning and an August afternoon. The housing is corrosion-resistant aluminum. Pair that with the adjustable backcheck for wind loading and it's built for an exterior entrance. If a closer without all-weather fluid is on the door now, seasonal re-adjustment is exactly the problem you're replacing.
23) How does the BEST HD7000 compare to a Sargent 1431 or an LCN 1460T for a heavy traffic door?
The HD7000 is a Grade 1 aluminum-body closer carried at a medium duty level. The Sargent 1431 Powerglide and the LCN 1460T are both catalogued heavy duty, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron heavy duty body. If the opening is an abused main entrance or a gymnasium door, the heavy duty bodies are the closer match to the service. For corridor, office and classroom doors where a Grade 1 rating is the spec requirement, the HD7000 covers it and gives you a wider arm and cover selection.
24) What is a cheaper alternative to the BEST HD7000 for a light-use interior door?
If the door is a low-traffic office or storage opening, a light duty closer is the honest answer. The Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring size 1 to 6 and a light duty rating, supplied less cover with a regular/parallel tri-pack arm. The Arrow DC314 and Falcon SC91A are also light duty options. Where the spec sheet actually calls out Grade 1 medium duty, or you need track arms, double egress arms or a lead lined cover, none of those substitute for the HD7000.
25) Can I standardize a whole building on the BEST HD7000, or will I need different closers for different doors?
One body covers most of a building. The HD7000 is non-handed, mounts regular, top jamb or parallel arm, and adjusts across spring sizes 1 to 6, so the same closer serves a light interior office door and a heavier exterior leaf by changing the adjustment rather than the part. What varies door to door is the arm and the cover, not the closer. That's the practical case for standardizing: one closer to stock, one adjustment procedure for your maintenance staff, and consistent Grade 1 performance across the openings.
26) Is there a simpler closer than the BEST HD7000 for a low-traffic interior door?
Yes. The HD7000 is a medium duty Grade 1 closer with a wide arm and cover program. For a light-traffic interior opening, the Norton Rixson 160 Series and the Arrow DC314 are Grade 1 light duty surface closers, and the LCN 1250 is a light duty closer with sizes 1-5 and all-weather fluid. The Falcon SC91A is a light duty cast aluminum closer at Grade 3 if the opening does not require Grade 1.
27) Which of the closers that come up alongside the BEST HD7000 are not actually substitutes for it?
Several are not closers at all or serve a different function. The Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500, a mounting accessory rather than a closer. The Stanley 327 and Stanley 341 are wardrobe pivots, and the Stanley 57-0100 is a box of steel machine screws for architectural hinges. The Stanley A45-501HL is a long hold open arm for top jamb mounting, an arm rather than a complete closer. For a Grade 1 surface closer replacement, none of these will do the job the HD7000 does.
28) We are standardizing a facility on one closer - how does the BEST HD7000 compare to the Corbin Russwin DC3200 or DC6200 for that?
All three are Grade 1 surface closers for 1-3/4 inch doors. The HD7000 is non-handed with a single body covering regular, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting and a spring adjustable across sizes 1 through 6, with 34 arm options and finishes including 689 aluminum painted, 690 statuary dark bronze, and 693 black. The Corbin Russwin DC3200 is supplied with a regular arm for surface mounting, and the DC6200 and DC8200 are supplied with a double lever regular arm for pull side mounting. If the goal is one part number that adapts to varied openings across a building, the HD7000 arm and finish program is the broader one.
29) Is the BEST HD7000 the same kind of closer as the Falcon SC81A or the Dormakaba 7303?
They sit in the same class. The HD7000 is a Grade 1 medium duty surface mounted closer. The Falcon SC81A is a Grade 1 medium duty surface mount closer with a cast aluminum body, and the Dormakaba 7303 is a Grade 1 medium duty surface mounted closer offered in a painted finish. The HD7000 differs in the breadth of its arm program, including heavy duty parallel arms with stop such as DS and DST and compression stop arms such as SDS and SDST.
30) Which closer should I look at instead of the BEST HD7000 for an aluminum storefront door?
The Norton Rixson 1600 Series aluminum storefront closer is built for that opening, a Grade 1 heavy duty closer with tri-style mounting. The Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount closer rated for 180 degree swing. The HD7000 is a Grade 1 non-handed closer for 1-3/4 inch doors with regular, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting, so confirm the storefront stile and reveal before substituting either direction.
31) What finishes does the BEST HD7000 closer come in, and can I paint it to match?
Seven finishes: 600 primed for painting, 689 aluminum painted, 690 statuary dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 black, 695 dark bronze painted, and 696 gold. If you're matching an unusual field color across a building, 600 comes primed and takes paint. 689 and 693 are the two that blend with most aluminum storefront and dark frames on an existing property.
32) Can I get security fasteners on the BEST HD7000 closer?
Torx security screws are an available add-on at the time of order. That's the choice for schools, detention-adjacent spaces, transit facilities and any opening where the closer is within reach of the public and a standard screwdriver would let someone take the cover or the arm off. Order it with the closer; retrofitting security screws later means sourcing them separately.
33) Can I order the BEST HD7000 closer body without an arm?
Yes. The LA option is less standard arm, so you take the closer body alone. That's the order when you already have the correct arm on the door and only the hydraulic body has failed, or when a specialty arm is coming from elsewhere on the job. If you're going the other way and want mounting flexibility on hand, the tri-pack arms AO8P and FHP ship with the brackets for more than one mounting configuration.
