Kawneer KW037882-40 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Kawneer KW037882-40 drop plate do on a Norton 1600 closer installation?
A drop plate lowers the closer body so it mounts where the frame face or head condition will not accept the closer directly. The KW037882-40 is Kawneer's service replacement plate for the Norton 1600 series closer, and it restores the original mounting geometry so the closer arm geometry and operation come back to spec. It is a mounting plate only, not the closer itself.
2) What finish is the Kawneer KW037882-40 drop plate, and will it match existing storefront hardware?
Dark Bronze, applied at the factory. That is the common Kawneer anodized-look tone used across aluminum storefront entrances, so it blends with existing dark bronze closers, frames and pulls. If your openings are clear anodized or painted, expect a visible difference.
3) Do I need a drop plate for my aluminum door closer, or can the closer mount directly?
You need a drop plate when the frame head or door top rail does not give enough flat surface for the closer body to land on, which is common on narrow-head aluminum storefront framing. If your head member has full mounting area and the closer body fits within it, no plate is required. Where a plate is needed on a Norton 1600 on Kawneer framing, the KW037882-40 is the service part for it.
4) Is this a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, model KW037882-40, made to Kawneer's original design specifications. For property managers standardizing a building of Kawneer entrances, that means the hole pattern and finish match what is already installed.
5) Does the KW037882-40 come with the door closer or mounting screws?
The KW037882-40 is the drop plate on its own. The Norton 1600 closer, arm and any fasteners are ordered separately, so plan the closer and its mounting hardware into the same order if you are building a complete opening rather than replacing a damaged plate.
6) Is the Kawneer KW037882-40 drop plate rated for high traffic commercial openings?
It is a commercial product, built for high-traffic commercial door applications such as offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. It is not intended as a residential item.
