Dormakaba DOR-7305-FH-695 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the DORMA 7305 strong enough for an exterior entrance door?
Size 5 is the spring power here, and it is fixed, not adjustable. That is toward the top of the standard 1 through 6 range, so it suits a wide or heavy door, an exterior opening, or one that sees wind and stack pressure. The trade-off with a fixed size is that you have to pick right the first time: on a narrow interior office door a size 5 will feel heavy and can push you out of the opening force limits. For those doors, order the smaller size in the same 7300 family instead.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the DORMA 7305?
No handing to specify. The 7305 is non-handed and the same unit mounts regular arm or top jamb, so one part number covers both swings. For a property manager stocking closers across a building, that means one item on the shelf rather than a left and a right.
3) Can the DORMA 7305 be mounted parallel arm on the push side of the door?
Not as configured. This one ships with the AR arm for regular (pull side) and top jamb mounting. The 7300 Series body itself is non-handed for regular, top jamb, and parallel arm applications, but parallel arm needs the parallel arm bracket, which the regular/top jamb build does not include. If the closer has to live on the push side of the door, order the parallel arm version of the 7300 rather than adding to this one.
4) Does the DORMA 7305 meet ADA opening force requirements?
Yes, it is ADA compliant, and the way you keep it that way on the job is with the two independent valves. The 7300 Series controls sweep and latch speeds separately and holds those speeds constant as temperatures swing, so the door does not go slow in January and slam in July. Certification is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1, with UL and cUL listing, UL10C for positive pressure, and CSFM approval.
5) I do not know what spring size the door needs. Is there an adjustable alternative to the DORMA 7305?
The 7305 is a fixed size 5, so it is the right call only when you already know the door wants that power. If you are surveying a mixed set of openings, or you want one part number that covers several door widths, go adjustable instead. The Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount with adjustable size 1 through 6, the Accentra 51 Series is a tri-packed hold open arm closer in sizes 1 through 6, and the Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 tri-pack with adjustable size 1 through 6. Adjustable also means one closer can be dialed down if the opening force comes back too high after install.
6) Can I use the DORMA 7305 on a fire rated door?
The 7300 Series closer itself is UL and cUL listed and meets UL10C for positive pressure, with CSFM approval, so the body qualifies for a rated opening. The friction hold open arm on this particular build is the problem: a fire door has to close and latch on alarm, and a friction hold open defeats that. On a rated opening, order the 7300 with a non-hold-open arm, or use an electromagnetic hold open tied to the fire alarm.
7) I need a hold open closer but the DORMA 7305 friction hold open arm is not what my spec calls for. What else holds the door open?
The 7305 carries a friction hold open arm, where hold open is set by tension in the arm itself. If the job calls for a different hold open arrangement, the Accentra 51 Series carries a tri-packed hold open arm across sizes 1 through 6, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open closer supplied with a parallel bracket, and the Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm closer for top jamb mounting. The Orca BHDC1958DA/PA instead provides delayed action rather than hold open, which is the usual alternative where a door must stay open long enough to pass through but must not remain propped.
8) The DORMA 7305 is medium duty. What surface closer should I use on a high traffic exterior entrance instead?
The DORMA 7305 is rated medium duty, which suits interior and moderate traffic openings. For an entrance taking constant abuse, the heavy duty peers are the better match: the BEST HD8000 Series and BEST EHD9000 Series are both Grade 1 heavy duty surface closers, the EHD9000 carrying adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6; the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with adjustable spring power; and the Falcon SC71A is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface mount closer. The Sargent 281 Powerglide is the cast iron heavy duty option in the same family of applications.
9) What is the closest Grade 1 medium duty surface closer to the DORMA 7305 if I need adjustable spring power instead of a fixed size 5?
The DORMA 7305 is a Grade 1 medium duty surface closer with a fixed spring size 5, so its power is set at the factory and does not adjust in the field. Where the opening needs the installer to dial power in, the Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1 through 6 spring, and the Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 adjustable surface closer for medium traffic commercial applications. Both cover a size range that brackets the 7305's fixed 5, which matters when one closer model has to serve a run of doors of differing width and exposure.
10) The DORMA 7305 mounts regular and top jamb. What do I use if the closer has to go on the push side in parallel arm?
The 7305 with the AR arm is set up for regular and top jamb mounting. Where the closer must sit on the push side in a parallel arm application, the tri-mount peers cover all three positions from one carton: the Dexter DCH1000, DCH4000, DCL2000 and DCM1000 Series are Grade 1 surface closers tri-mounted for regular, parallel or top jamb, the Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer supplied regular and parallel arm tri-pack with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, and the Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount closer. The Calibre CA8001P is built specifically as a parallel arm ADA surface mount closer.
11) Is the Cal-Royal 400 Series an equivalent substitute for the DORMA 7305?
It is not a like for like swap on certification. The DORMA 7305 is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certified, while the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic door closer. Where the specification or the facility standard calls for Grade 1, the Cal-Royal peers that carry it are the 500S barrier free closer with adjustable back check and the 700S Series dual valve sized closer with an adjustable tube arm. The Falcon SC91A is another closer that looks similar in form but is Grade 3 light duty rather than Grade 1.
12) What are the non-hold-open alternatives if I want the DORMA 7305 body style but the door must not be propped?
The 7305 is supplied with a friction hold open arm, which is exactly what a stair or smoke door should not have. For a straight closing arm, the Accentra 1101BF carries a tri-packed non hold open arm with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4, the Accentra 2701 Series carries a tri-packed non hold open arm with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, and the Design Hardware 116 and 416 Series are heavy duty closers with tri-packed non hold open arms. The Orca BHDC1958RA/PA is a non hold open regular arm closer supplied with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Is the BEST HD7000 a direct match for the DORMA 7305?
On the headline ratings they line up: the DORMA 7305 is Grade 1 medium duty, and the BEST HD7000 Series is a Grade 1 medium duty surface mounted closer with adjustable spring power and backcheck control. The 7305 also has adjustable backcheck along with two independent valves for separate sweep and latch speed control. The difference to settle before ordering is spring power, since the 7305 is a fixed size 5 while the HD7000 is adjustable, and the arm, since the 7305 is supplied friction hold open.
14) Does the DORMA 7305 come with a cover, and do I have to buy one?
The cover is optional. Order it bare with no cover, or add the COV slim plastic cover if you want the body concealed on a public-facing opening. Mounting screws are in the box either way, both wood and machine screws, so the same kit handles a hollow metal frame and a wood door without a second trip.
15) What finishes does the DORMA 7305 come in, and will it match the other closers in my building?
Three finishes: 689 aluminum, 695 dark bronze, and 696 satin brass. Those are sprayed finishes over an aluminum body. 689 is the usual match for clear anodized aluminum storefront, and 695 for dark bronze storefront. If you are standardizing a portfolio, pick the finish that matches your existing door hardware and repeat it, since the finish is the only thing that changes between the three.
16) Is the DORMA 7305 suitable for a house or apartment interior door?
It is built for commercial openings, not residential ones. Aluminum body, Grade 1 rack and pinion hydraulics, size 5 spring. On a light interior residential door that is more closer than the door needs and the opening force will feel wrong. For light residential and light commercial work, the Deltana DC10, DC40, DC50 and DC70 closers cover that end. Note that apartment corridor and stair doors in a multi-family building are commercial rated openings, and the 7305 is appropriate there.
17) The door slams shut at the last few inches. Can that be adjusted on the DORMA 7305?
Yes, latch speed is its own valve on the 7300 Series. Sweep and latch are two independent adjustments, so you can slow the last few inches without changing how the door travels through the rest of its swing. The design also holds those speeds constant across temperature changes, which is what keeps an exterior door from slamming in cold weather after you set it in summer. Backcheck is a third, separate adjustment and it controls the opening direction, not closing.
18) What is a lighter duty Grade 1 surface closer than the DORMA 7305 for an interior office door?
The 7305 is a medium duty closer with a fixed size 5 spring, which is more power than a light interior door usually needs. For lighter openings, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light duty closer with an adjustable spring for light commercial use, the Arrow DC314 is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer, and the Falcon SC61A is a Grade 1 light to medium duty cast aluminum surface closer. The LCN 1250 Series is a light duty closer covering sizes 1 through 5 with all weather fluid and ADA compliance.
19) The DORMA 7305 has an exposed arm. What surface closer should I use where the arm cannot project into the opening?
The 7305 uses a conventional projecting arm in regular or top jamb mounting. Where a projecting arm is not acceptable, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 Series is a Grade 1 surface closer supplied standard with a slide track arm for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin DC6200 and DC8200 Series use a double lever regular arm on the pull side, also for 1-3/4 inch doors, which is a different arm geometry again from the single lever arrangement.
20) Are the Stanley Security 327 and 341 alternatives to the DORMA 7305 closer?
No. The DORMA 7305 is a surface mounted hydraulic door closer that controls the closing of the door. The Stanley Security 327 is a heavy wardrobe pivot for doors 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch up to 150 pounds, and the Stanley Security 341 is a wardrobe pivot for flush recessed or overlay doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch. Those are hanging hardware, not closing devices, and neither returns a door to the frame. Likewise the Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500 closer, a mounting accessory rather than a closer, and the Stanley 57-0100 steel machine screws are hinge fasteners.
21) I need an ADA compliant closer to match the DORMA 7305 across a facility. Which peers state ADA compliance?
The DORMA 7305 is ADA compliant and Grade 1 certified. Among the peers that state ADA in their own right, the Calibre CA9901 is a tri-pack arm size 2 through 5 ADA surface mount closer, the Calibre CA4001 is an adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer, the Calibre CA8001P is a size 1 parallel arm ADA closer, the Imperial USA TC4300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty size 1 through 6 ADA closer, and the LCN 1250 Series is ADA compliant across sizes 1 through 5. The Cal-Royal 500S and N900PBF are described as barrier free Grade 1 hydraulic closers.
22) Which surface closer matches the DORMA 7305 for an aluminum storefront entrance?
The 7305 is a commercial Grade 1 surface closer for regular and top jamb mounting. For a storefront specifically, the Norton Rixson 1600 Series aluminum storefront closer is built for that opening with tri-style mounting and is Grade 1 heavy duty, which is the usual requirement on a glass front entrance taking wind load. The Corbin Russwin DC3200 is a Grade 1 regular arm surface closer for 1-3/4 inch doors where a conventional mounting is called for.
23) Which Sargent closer lines up with the DORMA 7305 on duty and grade?
Two do. The Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 medium duty adjustable surface closer for medium traffic commercial applications, and the Sargent 1331 is a Grade 1 medium duty adjustable surface closer with a universal aluminum body, which puts it on the same aluminum construction as the 7305. Both are adjustable where the 7305 is fixed at size 5. Stepping up, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is the heavy duty member of the same group.
24) The DORMA 7305 body is aluminum. Which comparable closers use cast iron or cast aluminum instead?
The DORMA 7305 uses an aluminum body. Among the peers, the LCN 1261 is a cast iron surface mounted closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 5, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron surface closer of heavy duty construction. On the cast aluminum side, the Falcon SC81A is a medium duty cast aluminum closer, the SC61A is light to medium duty cast aluminum, and the LCN 1450 is a medium duty closer of cast aluminum construction with spring sizes 1 through 6. The LCN 1460T carries a powder coat finish over a Grade 1 heavy duty body.
