Corbin Russwin 597F58 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) My door's top rail is too narrow to mount a Corbin Russwin DC3210 closer. Will the 597F58 drop plate solve that?
That is exactly what the 597F58 is for. It lowers the closer body so you can mount a DC3210, DC6210, or DC6410 with full cover in a parallel arm or top jamb configuration when the top rail won't take the closer the regular way. You still need a minimum 2 inch top rail to land the plate, so measure the rail from the top edge of the door down before ordering. Below 2 inches the plate won't help you.
2) What is a door closer drop plate and when do I need one?
A drop plate is a flat steel mounting plate that bolts to the door or frame and gives the closer a lower mounting surface than the door itself provides. You need one when the top rail is too shallow for the closer body's own hole pattern, or when a stop, glass light, or frame condition eats the space the closer needs. It does not change the closer's size, spring power, or function. It only relocates where the closer sits. The Corbin Russwin 597F58 handles that for parallel arm and top jamb mounting on DC3210, DC6210, and DC6410 closers with full cover.
3) Is the 597F58 drop plate a Corbin Russwin only part, or is there a generic drop plate that will work?
Drop plates are drilled for a specific closer body, so the 597F58 goes with Corbin Russwin DC3210, DC6210, DC6410 and DC8240 hardware and nothing else. If you are working on a different closer line, match the plate to that line: for Design Hardware closers there are the 116 parallel arm drop plate at 3-1/2 inch height in steel and non-handed, and the 5 inch parallel arm drop plates for the 316 and 416 Series. Buying a plate off-brand from your closer means the mounting holes will not line up.
4) I'm replacing closers across a commercial building. Do I need a drop plate on every opening?
Only on the openings where the closer won't fit the rail. Measure the top rail on each leaf: where it is under what the closer body needs, the 597F58 gets you a parallel arm or top jamb mount as long as you have at least 2 inches of rail. Openings with a full-depth rail take the closer directly and need no plate. It is a commercial-duty part, so it is appropriate for the office, school, healthcare, retail and multi-tenant traffic these closers usually see.
5) Is the 597F58 for parallel arm mounting or regular arm mounting?
Parallel arm, and it also covers top jamb mounting. Regular arm mounting puts the closer on the pull side with the arm projecting into the opening, and that is not the configuration this plate addresses. If your detail calls for a regular arm mount, this plate is the wrong accessory for the job.
6) Does the 597F58 drop plate include the closer, or do I order that separately?
Plate only. The 597F58 is a replacement mounting part, so the DC3210, DC6210, DC6410, or DC8240 closer, its arm, and its full cover are all separate orders. If you are doing a fresh install on a narrow rail, you are buying the closer and this plate together.
7) What is the difference between the Design Hardware 116 drop plate and the 316 and 416 drop plates?
Size and the closer they fit. The 116 Parallel Arm Drop Plate is 3-1/2 inches in height, steel, and non-handed, and belongs to the 116 Series. The 316-PA-DP and 416-PA-DP are both 5 inch parallel arm drop plates, for the 316 Series and 416 Series respectively. All three are standard duty. A shorter plate leaves less room to drop the closer below a narrow top rail, so measure the rail before choosing.
8) Will a friction hold open arm solve a narrow top rail the way a drop plate does?
No. The Design Hardware 316/116 Friction Hold Open Arm is an arm assembly that holds the door open at a set point; it changes how the door behaves, not where the closer body sits. The Corbin Russwin 597F58 is a drop plate, and its job is to lower the closer so parallel arm or top jamb mounting works on a door whose top rail is too narrow for regular mounting. If the rail is the problem, you need the drop plate; the hold open arm is a separate function you would add on top of it.
9) I need drop plates in dark bronze to match the other closers in the building. Which one carries that finish?
The Corbin Russwin 597F58 comes in 690 dark bronze, along with 600 primed for painting, 689 anodized aluminum, 691 light bronze, 693 black, and 696 satin brass, so a facility standardizing on a bronze closer package can hold the same finish across openings that need the plate. The Design Hardware 116, 316-PA-DP, and 416-PA-DP drop plates are specified by series and size rather than by a finish range, so if finish match across a fleet is the driver, the 597F58 is the one that lets you specify it directly.
10) Is the 597F58 drop plate handed?
No handing to specify on the 597F58. Pick your finish and that is the whole order. Handing on a parallel arm closer installation is set by the closer and arm you mount to the plate, not by the plate.
