Kawneer KW037885-29 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Kawneer KW037885-29 soffit plate used for?
It's the parallel arm soffit plate that mounts to the soffit or head frame to carry a Norton 1600 Series door closer arm in a parallel arm configuration. Kawneer supplies it as a service replacement part, so it's what you order when the original plate is worn, damaged, or missing on an existing 1600 Series installation.
2) Will the KW037885-29 plate work with a door closer other than a Norton 1600?
No. The plate is made specifically for the Norton 1600 Series closer and is dimensioned to that arm and mounting pattern. For a Norton 7500, 8000, or another manufacturer's closer, you need the soffit or shoe plate published for that specific closer, not this Kawneer part.
3) Do I have to re-drill the frame to install this replacement soffit plate?
No modification is intended. Kawneer builds the KW037885-29 to the original dimensional standards, so it goes into the existing frame prep and mates with the existing 1600 Series closer arm as a drop-in swap. You are reusing the holes that are already there.
4) What finish does the KW037885-29 come in, and can I get it in aluminum or dark bronze?
Black only. The factory-applied Black finish is the single finish offered on KW037885-29, which suits storefront and entrance systems already running dark hardware. If your openings are clear anodized or bronze, you would be matching a Black plate against them, so check the appearance before ordering for a visible head condition.
5) Does the KW037885-29 include the door closer or the closer arm?
No, it is the soffit plate by itself. You're buying a single replacement component, so the Norton 1600 closer body, the parallel arm, and any fasteners beyond what ships with the plate have to be sourced separately if yours are also damaged.
6) Is this a residential-grade part or is it for commercial entrances?
Commercial. It is catalogued and built for commercial door hardware duty, typically aluminum entrance and storefront openings in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, and municipal buildings where Norton 1600 closers are mounted parallel arm. For a property manager standardizing maintenance stock across a portfolio of entries, it's the plate to keep on the shelf alongside 1600 Series closers.
