Cal-Royal CR271PC Pocket Door Closer, CR441 Series with Heavy Duty Forged Steel Arm

The Cal-Royal CR271PC is the CR441 Series' dedicated Pocket Door Closer, built on the same CR441 cylinder body but specially re-engineered for pocket door closer applications. It uses a higher tensioned steel spring combined with high-performance hydraulic fluid to withstand high-demand performance applications. Because a 180 degree door opening requires greater force, the CR271PC features a heavy duty double lever forged steel arm designed 1" longer than the standard CR441 arm for extra smooth action. This Grade 1 door closer is cast iron and non-handed, meeting ANSI A156.4 standards and carrying UL and cUL listing.

Key Features

  • Extended Arm Length: Heavy duty double lever forged steel arm designed 1" longer than the standard CR441 arm for extra smooth action during full 180 degree pocket door swing.
  • High-Performance Hydraulics: High-performance hydraulic fluid combined with a higher tensioned steel spring for reliable operation in high-demand performance applications.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: Cast iron, non-handed body shares the same CR441 cylinder housing, specially re-engineered for pocket door closer use.
  • Grade 1 Performance: Meets the highest industry standards under ANSI A156.4 Grade 1, UL and cUL Listed for commercial reliability.
  • Dedicated Pocket Door Application: Engineered specifically for 180 degree opening in pocket door only applications; not for use with conventional hinges or latching hardware.
  • Complete Packaging Includes: Heavy duty double lever forged steel arm (1" longer than CR441 arm), parallel bracket, wood screws and self-tapping machine screws, full cover, and sex bolts.

Cal-Royal CR271PC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order a left hand or right hand version of the Cal-Royal CR271PC pocket door closer?
Handing is not a factor. The CR271PC body is non-handed cast iron, so one part number covers both directions of pocket travel and you do not specify hand on the order.
2) What comes in the box with the Cal-Royal CR271PC, and what else do I need to buy to install it?
The CR271PC ships complete for a typical install: the heavy duty double lever forged steel arm, a parallel bracket, wood screws and self-tapping machine screws, a full cover, and sex bolts. The sex bolts cover through-bolting on a wood or mineral core door, and the two screw types cover wood versus metal substrates. Nothing further is required unless your pocket frame needs a blocking or reinforcement detail of its own.
3) Is the Cal-Royal CR271PC pocket door closer Grade 1 and UL listed for a healthcare or school corridor?
Yes on both counts. The CR271PC meets ANSI A156.4 Grade 1, the top performance tier for door closers, and it carries UL and cUL listing. It is a commercial-duty unit and Cal-Royal names healthcare institutions, educational facilities, government buildings, and multi-tenant residential among its applications.
4) We standardize on one Grade 1 closer across a facility. Can one model cover both our swinging doors and our pocket doors?
No single one of these covers both. For the swinging doors, the Hager 5300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface mounted closer supplied with tri-pack arms, which lets one part number be mounted in more than one configuration across an opening schedule; the Hager 5100 Series multi-mount is a Grade 1 cast iron surface mounted closer in the same vein. Pocket doors need a dedicated unit: the Cal-Royal CR271PC is ANSI A156.4 Grade 1 and UL and cUL listed, with a higher tensioned steel spring and high-performance hydraulic fluid, engineered for 180 degree pocket door only openings. Standardizing on a Grade 1 surface closer for the swinging leaves plus the CR271PC for the pockets keeps the whole facility at Grade 1.
5) Why does the CR271PC use a different arm than the regular Cal-Royal CR441 closer?
A 180 degree door opening takes more force than a normal swing, so the CR271PC ships with a heavy duty double lever forged steel arm made 1 inch longer than the standard CR441 arm. The longer lever gives smoother action through the full pocket door travel. The cylinder body itself is the same CR441 housing, re-engineered with a higher tensioned steel spring and high-performance hydraulic fluid.
6) How does the CR271PC mount, and is it hidden inside the pocket?
It is a surface mounted closer, not a concealed-in-frame unit. The cast iron cylinder mounts on the surface with the supplied parallel bracket and takes a full cover. Plan for the body and arm to be visible where the door meets the pocket opening rather than buried in the wall cavity.
7) Is the CR271PC heavy enough for a high traffic pocket door that gets used all day?
That is what the re-engineering is for. Cal-Royal pairs a higher tensioned steel spring with high-performance hydraulic fluid to hold up in high-demand applications, and the body is cast iron rather than aluminum. Combined with ANSI A156.4 Grade 1, it is specified for commercial traffic in offices, retail, warehouse, and multi-tenant buildings.
8) I am standardizing closers across a building that has both pocket doors and swing doors, what should I spec?
Use the CR271PC only at the pocket doors, since it is built for 180 degree pocket travel and is not for conventional hinged or latching openings. For the swing doors, stay at the same Grade 1 performance level with a surface closer such as the Hager 5200 Series or the Hager 5300 Series, which ships with tri-pack arms so one part number covers regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting across mixed openings.
9) How does the Cal-Royal CR271PC compare with the Hager 5300 tri-pack arm closer for a door that has to swing a full 180 degrees?
The Hager 5300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface mounted closer that comes with tri-pack arms, giving a choice of mounting arrangement on a conventional door. The Cal-Royal CR271PC comes one way: a heavy duty double lever forged steel arm 1 inch longer than the standard CR441 arm, sized because a 180 degree door opening requires greater force, paired with a higher tensioned steel spring and high-performance hydraulic fluid. The CR271PC is engineered for 180 degree opening in pocket door only applications, so the tri-pack flexibility of the 5300 applies to hinged openings rather than to a pocket door.
10) Is the Cal-Royal CR271PC an equivalent substitute for a Hager 5100-PAR HDHO hold open closer?
No. The Hager 5100-PAR HDHO is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface door closer supplied with an extra heavy duty hold open arm in a sprayed aluminum finish, so it is specified when the door needs to stand open. The Cal-Royal CR271PC ships with a heavy duty double lever forged steel arm, a parallel bracket, wood screws and self-tapping machine screws, a full cover, and sex bolts, and it is built for 180 degree pocket door only service. Where a hold open function is on the drawing for a swinging door, the 5100-PAR HDHO is the unit that provides it.
