Hager 520016ALM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Hager 5200 closer on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 5200 Series is UL/cUL listed for up to 3 hours and carries a UL10C Positive Pressure rating along with UL10B. Note that a hold open arm is not appropriate on a fire door opening unless the hold open is released by the fire alarm system, so on rated doors specify a non-hold-open arm such as the Extra Heavy Duty Stop Arm (HDS) 5907 or the Non-Hold Open Stop Track Arm (NHOTA).
2) Is the Hager 5200 closer handed, or does one closer work on both left and right hand doors?
Non-handed. One 5200 body works on a door of either hand, and the standard Tri-Pack arm covers regular arm, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting with the parallel arm bracket included. So for a property manager stocking spares, a single part number covers push side, pull side, and frame-face installs across a building.
3) How heavy a door will the Hager 5200 closer handle, and do I have to order a specific size?
One closer covers spring sizes 1 through 6, adjustable in the field, with a maximum door weight of 250 lbs. You do not pick a size at order time. Size it on site: lighter interior doors low in the range, wide or heavy exterior entrances toward 5 and 6. Hager recommends anti-friction or ball bearing hinges with its closers to extend hinge life and help meet ADA opening force.
4) Does the Hager 5200 closer meet Grade 1 and ADA requirements for a school or hospital?
It is BHMA Certified to ANSI A156.4 Grade 1 and compliant with ANSI A117.1 for ADA. That is the spec line most institutional and government jobs write, and it is what an MRO buyer standardizing across a facility needs on the submittal.
5) Which arm should I order on the Hager 5200 for a door with no wall stop behind it?
Pick a stop arm so the arm takes the overswing instead of the door slamming a wall. The 5200 offers Extra Heavy Duty Stop Arm (HDS) 5907, Extra Heavy Duty Cushion Stop Arm (HDCS) 5957 which cushions the door before the stop, Pull Side Stop Arm (PSS) 5926 for pull side mounting, and the Non-Hold Open Stop Track Arm (NHOTA) if you want a track rather than a scissor arm. Add hold open to any of those with the HDHOS 5906, HDHOCS 5956, PSHOS 5927, or HOTA track arm.
6) What is the difference between the regular arm and a parallel arm mount on a surface door closer?
Regular arm mounts the closer on the pull side of the door with the arm reaching to the frame face, and it gives the most efficient power but leaves the closer projecting into the opening. Parallel arm puts the closer on the push side with the arm running flat along the frame soffit, which keeps it tighter to the door and out of reach in a corridor or classroom. Top jamb mounts the body on the frame instead of the door, used on aluminum and glass fronts or where the door face cannot be drilled. The 5200 standard Tri-Pack arm ships with all three configurations and the parallel arm bracket, so the mounting decision can be made at install.
7) Do I need a hold open arm or a separate hold open bracket on the Hager 5200?
Two routes. Order a hold open arm outright: Hold Open Arm (HO) 5910, Extra Heavy Duty Hold Open Stop Arm (HDHOS) 5906, Extra Heavy Duty Hold Open Cushion Stop Arm (HDHOCS) 5956, Pull Side Hold Open Stop Arm (PSHOS) 5927, or the Hold Open Stop Track Arm (HOTA). Or add the hold open parallel arm bracket as an option to a parallel arm setup. Hold open belongs on receiving doors, storage rooms, and doors propped during moves, not on a fire rated opening.
8) Will the Hager 5200 closer hold up on an exterior door in winter?
Hager rates prolonged use between -40 degrees F (-42 degrees C) and 150 degrees F (66 degrees C), so northern exterior entrances and unconditioned loading docks are within range. The closer has adjustable backcheck, sweep, and latching valves as standard, and backcheck is what protects an exterior door from being blown open into the wall on a windy opening.
9) How much clearance do I need above the door for a Hager 5200 surface closer?
3-1/2 inches of clearance. If the head rail, transom, or soffit gives you less than that on a regular or top jamb mount, the closer will not lay in, and you should look at a parallel arm application where the body sits on the push side of the door face instead.
10) Can the Hager 5200 be adjusted for slower closing on a door used by elderly or disabled occupants?
Yes. Sweep and latch speed are set with independent adjustable valves, and a delayed action valve is available as an option, which holds the door open longer at the start of the close so someone with a walker or a cart can clear the opening before the door begins moving. That, plus the 1 through 6 spring range set low enough to keep opening force down, is how the opening gets to ANSI A117.1.
11) Should I use a track arm or a standard scissor arm closer on a school corridor door?
Track arm keeps a lower profile and is harder to grab or vandalize, which is why it gets specified in schools and dormitory corridors. The 5200 offers it both ways, Hold Open Stop Track Arm (HOTA) and Non-Hold Open Stop Track Arm (NHOTA). A scissor arm such as the Extra Heavy Duty Arm (HD) 5911 delivers more mechanical advantage, so on a heavy or wide door approaching the 250 lb ceiling, or an exterior door fighting wind, the heavy duty scissor arm is the stronger choice.
12) Is the Hager 5200 closer body metal or plastic, and what is inside it?
Aluminum alloy body with a full cover. The working parts are full rack and pinion: a heat treated steel piston, a triple heat treated steel spindle, and double heat-treated steel-tempered springs in a one piece seamless steel spring tube. That is the construction that separates a Grade 1 closer from the light duty residential units that fail on a high traffic entrance.
