4) What power size rating does this closer provide?
The SC61A provides medium duty performance suitable for commercial interior applications. Check the specific power rating marked on your unit. Ensure the closer grade meets your building code requirements for the door location.
5) Does this closer meet ADA compliance requirements?
Surface mount closers can be adjusted for ADA compliance when properly installed and adjusted. Set opening force to 5 pounds maximum. Verify your installation meets all applicable accessibility codes for your project.
6) What mounting hardware comes with the SC61A?
Standard mounting packages typically include screws and brackets for frame and door mounting. Use supplied fasteners appropriate for your door and frame materials. Heavy doors may require additional reinforcement.
7) How do you install a surface mount door closer?
