BEST PH 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What reveal does the BEST PH hold open arm work with?
The PH arm is built for regular mounting with a frame reveal of 0 inches up to 1-1/2 inches. If your closer is mounted on the pull side of the door with the shoe on the frame face and the reveal falls inside that range, this arm suits the opening. A deeper reveal than 1-1/2 inches needs a different arm or a drop plate.
2) Is the BEST PH a complete door closer or just the arm?
Arm only. The PH is a replacement door closer arm, so you are reusing the existing closer body and mounting hardware on the door. Order it when the original arm is bent, worn, or you are converting a regular-mount closer over to plunger hold open. If the closer body itself is leaking or has lost control, the arm will not fix that.
3) Can I use a plunger hold open arm on a fire rated door?
No. A mechanical hold open device must not be installed on a fire door, which has to be self-closing and self-latching; hold open on a rated opening requires an electromagnetic device tied to the fire alarm. Use the PH plunger hold open arm on non-rated openings such as offices, corridors without rated separation, retail entries, and warehouse doors.
4) How does the plunger hold open on this BEST closer arm actually work?
Hold open on the PH arm comes from a plunger built into the arm itself, not from a separate stop or magnet. Swing the door to the set position and the plunger engages to hold it there; pull the door past that point to release. It is meant for commercial traffic where doors need to stay open during deliveries or peak flow.
5) Will a plunger hold open arm work if the door swings against a wall or has a floor stop?
Hold open on this arm engages at a set position in the swing, so the door has to be able to reach that point. If a floor stop, wall, or adjacent fixture stops the door short, the plunger may never engage. Check the available swing before ordering; on short-swing openings a standard arm with a separate overhead stop is the better route.
6) What finish does the BEST PH arm come in?
One finish: 689 aluminum painted. That is the standard painted aluminum used on most commercial closers, so it blends with existing 689 closer bodies and covers across a building without a mismatch. If your other openings are brass or bronze plated, this arm will not match them visually.
7) Is the BEST PH arm suitable for high traffic openings like schools and hospitals?
Yes, it's a commercial-grade arm and the intended settings include educational facilities, healthcare institutions, office buildings, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and government buildings. For standardizing a facility, note it is a regular-mount arm for 0 to 1-1/2 inch reveals, so openings outside that reveal range need a different arm.
