Don-Jo 2023 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a door coordinator actually do, and do I need one on my pair of doors?
A coordinator holds the inactive leaf open until the active leaf has cleared, then releases it so both latch in the right order. You need one on any pair where the leaves overlap: an astragal, an overlapping edge, or a pair with a mortise lock that latches into the inactive leaf. If both leaves close independently with no overlap, you do not need a coordinator at all. The Don-Jo 2023 is the aluminum bar type, mounted in the frame header.
2) What else do I need to order with a Don-Jo 2023 coordinator to finish the install?
Two things get ordered alongside the bar. A filler bar, when the 44 inch coordinator body does not reach across the full opening width, so the header looks finished. And mounting brackets, which are what adapt the coordinator to your particular frame configuration. Neither is part of the coordinator itself. If you also run surface closers or a carry bar, those brackets are what tie it all to the header.
3) I need a fire rated coordinator for a labeled pair. Is the Don-Jo 2023 the right one?
For a labeled opening, look at the Ives COR Series aluminum bar coordinators (COR32/42/52/60/72) or the Ives COR7G/COR9G brass gravity coordinator, both of which we carry with a fire rating on record. The ABH 3700 Series full bar coordinator with filler bar is listed as UL fire door compatible, and Trimco offers the 3092 retracting arm and 3094 stop mounted UL coordinators. Match the coordinator to whatever the door label and the closer schedule call for.
4) My pair of doors is narrower than 84 inches. Can I still use the Don-Jo 2023?
No. The 2023 starts at 84-1/16 inches of frame opening, so anything below that needs a shorter coordinator. Bar coordinators are sized by opening width, and the Ives COR Series runs several sizes (COR32, 42, 52, 60 and 72) covering narrower pairs. Measure the frame opening, not the individual door leaf, when you pick the size.
5) What is an equivalent full-bar door coordinator to the Don-Jo 2023 if the pair is on a fire-rated opening?
The ABH 3700 Series is a full bar door coordinator with filler bar that is UL listed and fire door compatible, so it suits a fire-rated pair. The Don-Jo 2023 is a bar-type coordinator built to ANSI A156.3 Type 21 with a 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch body covering frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches, and an optional filler bar for openings the bar does not span. Both mount in the frame header and sequence the inactive leaf ahead of the active leaf.
6) What should I use instead of the Don-Jo 2023 when there is no room in the frame header for a bar coordinator?
The Trimco 3094 is a stop mounted coordinator, which places the mechanism on the door stop rather than requiring a full bar spanning the header. The Trimco 3092 is a retracting arm coordinator, another arrangement that avoids a continuous bar across the opening. The Don-Jo 2023 is a bar-type coordinator whose 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch body sits in the frame header and covers frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches, with mounting brackets available for varying frame configurations.
7) My opening is narrower than 84 inches - what coordinator works if the Don-Jo 2023 is too long?
The Don-Jo 2023 covers frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches with a 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch bar, so a narrower pair falls below its range. The Ives COR32, COR42, COR52, COR60 and COR72 are aluminum bar coordinators offered across a range of sizes in the same style of header-mounted bar, and they carry a fire rating. Measure the frame opening width and select the COR size that brackets it.
8) Is the Don-Jo 2023 coordinator ANSI compliant for a commercial spec job?
It meets ANSI A156.3 Type 21, which is the coordinator classification in the exit device and door control standard. That is the line to put on the hardware schedule when a spec calls for a bar-type coordinator. The 2023 is a commercial-duty product, not a residential one.
9) What happens if someone pushes both doors at once on a coordinator like the Don-Jo 2023?
There is a safety override built in. Under extreme force the active leaf is allowed to close first rather than the mechanism binding, which protects the coordinator and the door hardware and keeps the opening from jamming in an evacuation. It is the behavior you want in a corridor pair that gets crowded.
10) Bar coordinator or gravity coordinator, which type should I use on a pair of doors?
A bar type like the Don-Jo 2023 mounts across the frame header and works off the leaf pushing the bar, so it suits pairs with surface closers and a full soffit to mount to. A gravity coordinator, such as the Ives COR7G or COR9G in brass, uses a pivoting arm instead and is field adjustable, which helps when the pair is out of square or the sequencing needs tuning after install. Trimco splits the difference with the 3092 retracting arm and the 3094 stop mounted versions for frames where a full header bar will not fit.
11) For standardizing coordinators across a facility with mixed pair widths, what should I look at alongside the Don-Jo 2023?
The Don-Jo 2023 handles the wide pairs, covering frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches with a 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch aluminum bar built to ANSI A156.3 Type 21. For pairs outside that width, the Ives COR32, COR42, COR52, COR60 and COR72 are aluminum bar coordinators spanning several sizes with a fire rating, and the ABH 3700 Series is a full bar coordinator with filler bar that is UL listed and fire door compatible. Keeping to bar-type units across the facility means one install method and one spare part style for maintenance.
12) What is the difference between a gravity coordinator like the Ives COR7G and the Don-Jo 2023?
The Ives COR7G and COR9G are brass gravity door coordinators with field-adjustable operation, and they carry a fire rating. Gravity units work from a pivoting arm rather than a bar running the width of the opening. The Don-Jo 2023 is an aluminum bar coordinator built to ANSI A156.3 Type 21, with a 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch body for frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches and a safety override that lets the active leaf close first under extreme force. If the installer needs to tune sequencing on site, the field-adjustable Ives gravity unit is the one that offers that; if the goal is a header bar sized to a wide opening, the 2023 is the arrangement that fits.
13) Is a Trimco 3092 retracting arm coordinator a drop-in replacement for a Don-Jo 2023?
No. The Trimco 3092 is a retracting arm coordinator, a different mechanism and mounting arrangement from a header bar. The Don-Jo 2023 is a bar coordinator with a 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch body sized to frame openings from 84-1/16 inches to 96 inches, and it uses mounting brackets and an optional filler bar to finish out the header. Swapping between the two means new prep, not reusing the existing bar mounting.
14) Which coordinators come with a filler bar for openings the coordinator does not span?
The ABH 3700 Series is a full bar coordinator supplied with a filler bar. The Don-Jo 2023 offers an optional filler bar for the same purpose, used when the 1-5/8 inch by 44 inch coordinator body does not fill the full length of an opening between 84-1/16 inches and 96 inches, giving a continuous finished appearance across the header.
15) Will an aluminum Don-Jo 2023 coordinator match the other door hardware in my building?
The 2023 comes in 628 aluminum, which is clear anodized aluminum, the standard finish on aluminum storefront frames and most surface closers and push bars. On a painted hollow metal frame it reads as a light silver band across the header. Only one finish is offered on the 2023, so if your openings are standardized on bronze or brass trim, this one will not match.
