Corbin Russwin 689F03 689 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Corbin Russwin 689F03 door closer designed for?
The 689F03 is a heavy-duty commercial door closer with parallel arm mounting and backstop feature. It's designed for high-traffic applications requiring reliable closing performance and door protection.
2) What door sizes and weights does this closer accommodate?
This heavy-duty closer typically handles doors up to 48 inches wide and weights up to 140 pounds. Verify specific door dimensions and weight against manufacturer specifications for proper sizing.
3) How does the parallel arm configuration work?
Parallel arm mounting positions the closer on the pull side of the door with the arm parallel to the door face when closed. This configuration provides strong closing force while maintaining a clean appearance.
4) What is the backstop feature on this closer?
The backstop limits door opening to a predetermined angle, typically around 85-90 degrees. This protects the door, frame, and closer from damage caused by over-opening in high-wind or high-traffic conditions.
5) Is this closer suitable for ADA compliance?
The 689F03 can be adjusted to meet ADA opening force requirements when properly installed and adjusted. Verify final opening force with a gauge to ensure compliance with local accessibility codes.
6) What finish options are available?
Corbin Russwin closers typically come in standard architectural finishes including aluminum, bronze, and dark bronze. Check product specifications for available finish options for this specific model.
7) Can this closer be used on fire-rated doors?
Many Corbin Russwin closers are listed for fire door applications. Verify the specific fire rating and listing requirements with local fire marshal and ensure proper installation per fire door requirements.
8) What tools are needed for installation?
Installation typically requires a drill, appropriate drill bits, screwdrivers, level, measuring tape, and mounting hardware. Use manufacturer's template for precise hole placement and refer to installation instructions.
9) How do you adjust the closing speed and latching speed?
Adjustment valves on the closer body control closing speed and latching speed. Turn valves clockwise to slow, counterclockwise to speed up. Make small adjustments and test door operation between changes.
10) What maintenance does this closer require?
Regular maintenance includes checking mounting screws for tightness, inspecting arm connections, and adjusting closing speed as needed. Clean exterior surfaces periodically and check for hydraulic fluid leaks.
