Corbin Russwin DC8240 689 M54 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Corbin Russwin DC8240 a track closer or a standard arm closer?
The DC8240 is a slide track closer. Both arm options offered are track arms for push side mounting: the standard non-hold-open slide track arm and the A1 hold open slide track arm. If you need a swing arm closer with regular, top jamb, or parallel arm mounting, a tri-pack closer like the Sargent 1431 or Norton Rixson 8501A is the type to look at instead.
2) Do I have to order the DC8240 left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The DC8240 is non-handed, so the same unit works on either swing, and it supports up to four mounting positions. That makes it easy to stock one part number across a building.
3) Will the DC8240 close a heavy 1-3/4 inch exterior door?
Spring power is field adjustable from size 1 through 6, which covers doors up to 250 lbs, and the closer is built for 1-3/4 inch doors. Recommended maximum interior door width is 54 inches. Backcheck is standard on every unit, which is what protects the door and frame when wind catches an exterior opening.
4) Can I use a hold open closer on a fire rated door?
No. The A1 hold open slide track arm is not for fire doors. On a fire rated opening, order the standard non-hold-open slide track arm version. The DC8240 itself meets UL10C positive pressure up to 3 hours and is UL-cUL listed, so the closer is suitable for the fire opening as long as you do not put hold open on it.
5) Does the DC8240 meet ADA accessibility requirements for a school or hospital?
Yes. The DC8240 is ADA/ANSI A117.1 compliant and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1, with independently adjustable closing and latching speed valves so you can dial opening force and closing timing to what the inspector wants. It is also TAA compliant, which matters on government work.
6) What do I need to specify when ordering a DC8240?
Two choices: arm and finish. Arm is either the standard non-hold slide track arm or the A1 hold open slide track arm, both push side track mounting. Finish comes in 600 primed for painting, 689 anodized aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 black, and 696 satin brass. Spring power does not need to be specified, it is adjustable 1 to 6 in the field.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Corbin Russwin DC8240 if I need another track-mounted pull side closer?
The Dorma 8916-JT is the nearest match in mounting style: it is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with a jamb track, frame face mounting, pull side, adjustable size 1-6, from the 8900 Series. Like the DC8240 it covers spring sizes 1 through 6 and carries a Grade 1 rating, and its slide track arm keeps the arm tight to the door the same way the DC8240 track arm does. The 8916-JT is supplied with a flat non-hold open arm, so if you need hold open you would order the DC8240 with the A1 hold open slide track arm instead.
8) I need a size 1-6 Grade 1 closer but the opening uses a regular or parallel arm, not a track. What should I use instead of the DC8240?
The DC8240 is supplied with slide track arms for push side mounting, so on an opening prepped for a conventional arm a tri-mount closer is the better fit. The Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a regular/parallel arm tri-pack and adjustable spring size 1 to 6. The Norton Rixson 8501A is another Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1-6 spring, rated medium duty. Both cover the same spring range as the DC8240's size 1 through 6 adjustment.
9) I need hold open on a track closer. What are my options besides the DC8240 A1 arm?
The DC8240 is offered with the A1 hold open slide track arm, which is the direct way to get hold open on a track mount and is not for use on fire doors. If a conventional arm is acceptable, the Accentra 51 Series is an industrial door closer with a tri-packed hold open arm and size 1-6 adjustment, and the Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm standard, top jamb unit. The Orca BHDC1958HO is a tri-packed hold open arm closer for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door thickness the DC8240 is built around.
10) How far will a door open with the DC8240 slide track closer?
Opening range runs to 140 degrees pull side and 110 degrees push side, with a listed door opening size of 100 degrees. Track closers generally give less swing than a parallel arm unit, so if you need a full 180 degree swing on a storefront, look at a tri-mount closer such as the Norton Rixson 1600 Series instead.
11) What other brands make a comparable Grade 1 track or heavy duty surface closer?
For a track closer with pull side frame face mounting, the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track unit adjustable size 1-6. If you want heavy duty but swing arm rather than track, the BEST EHD9000 Series and Sargent 1431 Powerglide are both Grade 1 heavy duty with adjustable spring power. The BEST HD7000 is the medium duty step down in that line.
12) Can the DC8240 mount on the pull side of the door?
The DC8240 supports pull side and push side installation, door or frame mounted, and includes 1/2 inch of vertical adjustment for tight head conditions. Note that both track arms offered are described for push side mounting, so confirm the arm matches the side you are mounting on.
13) What heavy-duty closers compare with the DC8240 for a high-traffic entrance?
The BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, and the BEST HD8000 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer. The Sargent 1431 Powerglide and Falcon SC71A are both heavy duty Grade 1 surface closers as well. All of these sit in the same Grade 1 class as the DC8240, which is rated to 25,000,000 endurance cycles and adjusts through spring size 6 for doors up to 250 lbs.
14) Is there a lighter-duty alternative to the DC8240 for a low-traffic interior door?
Yes. The BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, and the Arrow DC314 is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer in the DC300 Series. The LCN 1250 Series is a light duty surface closer with sizes 1-5 and all-weather fluid. The DC8240 is built for high-use openings at 25,000,000 endurance cycles with spring adjustment through size 6, so the lighter units suit doors that will not see that traffic or need that much closing power.
15) Which of these closers is not a substitute for the DC8240?
The Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500, a mounting accessory rather than a closer, and the Stanley 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots for cabinet and wardrobe doors. The Stanley 57-0100 is a box of steel machine screws for architectural hinges. None of those will replace the DC8240, which is a Grade 1 surface mounted closer. Among actual closers, the Cal-Royal 400 Series is Grade 2 and the Falcon SC91A is Grade 3, so neither meets a Grade 1 specification the way the DC8240 does.
16) For a barrier free ADA opening, what compares to the DC8240?
The DC8240 is ADA compliant per ADA/ANSI A117.1 with spring power adjustable from size 1 to 6. The Cal-Royal 500S is a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, and the Cal-Royal N900PBF is a barrier free Grade 1 hydraulic surface closer. The Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 ADA surface mount closer with a tri-pack arm in size 2-5, and the Calibre CA4001 is a Grade 1 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer. The DC8240 differs in being ordered with slide track arms rather than a tri-pack.
17) Is there an alternative with delayed action, which the DC8240 does not offer?
The DC8240 has independently adjustable closing and latching speed valves with backcheck standard. If you specifically need a delayed action cycle, the Orca BHDC1958DA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca BHDC2011DA is a delayed action closer in the same arm configuration for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both match the DC8240 door thickness of 1-3/4 inch.
18) I am standardizing a storefront entrance. Does the DC8240 suit that, or is there a better choice?
The DC8240 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a recommended maximum interior door width of 54 inches and a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, mounted push or pull side with a slide track arm. For aluminum storefront specifically, the Norton Rixson 1600 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 aluminum storefront door closer with tri-style mounting, which is designed around that frame type. The Falcon SC61A is a Grade 1 light to medium duty cast aluminum surface closer if the entrance sees lighter traffic.
19) What is a medium duty Grade 1 option if the DC8240 is more closer than my interior office doors need?
The Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 adjustable surface closer described for medium-traffic commercial applications, and the Sargent 1331 is a medium duty Grade 1 closer with a universal aluminum body. The Falcon SC81A is a medium duty Grade 1 cast aluminum surface closer, and the Norton Rixson 1601P is a medium duty Grade 1 tri-mount closer with 180 degree swing. The DC8240 is built to 25,000,000 endurance cycles for high-use openings, so these medium duty units address lighter interior traffic.
