Falcon OHC100A Series Overhead Concealed Door Closer Body Assembly
The Falcon OHC100A Series body assembly is the cast iron replacement body component for Falcon's overhead concealed door closer system, designed to fit inside standard aluminum frame headers. Non-handed and ADA compliant, it supports 90° and 105° standard opening configurations with optional hold-open cylinders. Two body models cover the full closer size range: the OHC100 body accommodates adjustable sizes 3–5 (heavier doors), and the OHC101 body accommodates adjustable sizes 1–3 (lighter doors). Both match the Jackson hole pattern for straightforward retrofit into existing frames.
