    LCN 1450-CYL-RWPA-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Will the LCN 1450 door closer fit the existing holes from the closer I'm replacing?
    The 1450 uses the industry's most common hole pattern, 3/4" x 12", which is why it's a routine aftermarket swap on commercial openings already drilled for a surface closer. It's also non-handed, so the same unit goes on a left- or right-hand door without modification. What you still have to match is the mounting style: it templates for hinge (pull side), top jamb (push side), and parallel arm (push side), so pick the arm that matches how the old closer was mounted.
    2) How do I get the LCN 1450 to hold the door open for wheelchair or cart traffic?
    Two different things do that, and they aren't interchangeable. A delayed action cylinder (CYLDEL) slows the door through the first part of its swing so someone slow-moving gets through, then the door closes normally. A hold open arm parks the door open until someone pushes it shut: HLONG (hold open long arm), HEDA (hold open extra duty, ordered left or right hand), HWPA (hold open with parallel arm bracket), HCUSH and SHCUSH on the Cush-n-Stop side. You can order the delayed action cylinder and a hold open arm together. Note that hold open is not permitted on a fire rated opening.
    3) Do I have to order a specific spring size for the LCN 1450, or does one closer cover different door widths?
    One unit covers the range. The 1450 cylinder is field adjustable across spring sizes 1 through 6, so the same closer handles a light interior door and a wide or heavier one, and you dial the power in on site rather than ordering per opening. That matters if you're standardizing a building: buy one part number in one finish and set the power door by door. Turning the spring down is also how you bring closing force into ADA range on an accessible interior opening, and the closer is ADA compliant as supplied.
    4) Which LCN 1450 arm should I order if there's no wall stop and the door slams into the wall?
    Use a Cush-n-Stop arm. The CUSH arm gives you a built in stop at the arm so you don't need a separate wall or floor stop, HCUSH adds hold open, SCUSH adds a spring stop that cushions the door before it hits, and SHCUSH combines spring stop with hold open. All of these are parallel arm push side applications. If there is already a stop on the opening and the door just takes abuse, the EDA extra duty arm is the one to specify. On a standard opening with nothing unusual, LONG or RWPA (regular arm with parallel arm bracket) covers it.
    5) The door is an exterior entrance that gets abused - is a medium duty closer the right call or should I step up?
    For high-abuse exterior openings there are heavy duty alternatives to a medium duty closer like the LCN 1450. The BEST EHD9000 is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring power, and the Falcon SC71A is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface-mount closer. Sargent's 281 Powerglide is heavy duty Grade 1 in a cast iron body rather than aluminum. The 1450 remains Grade 1 certified and carries all-weather fluid for consistent closing speed across temperature swings, so the choice turns on door weight and traffic rather than on certification level.
    6) What is the closest equivalent to an LCN 1450 door closer from another manufacturer?
    The nearest match on duty level and body material is the Falcon SC81A, a medium duty surface-mount cast aluminum closer certified Grade 1. The LCN 1450 is also a medium duty cast aluminum surface closer with an aluminum substrate and adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. Sargent's 1331 is another medium duty Grade 1 surface closer with a universal aluminum body, and the BEST HD7000 is a medium duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring power and backcheck control. All three land in the same medium duty commercial band as the 1450, so any of them can be specified where a 1450 was originally written.
    7) My spec calls for a slide track or concealed-arm closer - what do I use instead of an LCN 1450?
    The LCN 1450 is a surface-mount closer using standard swing arms - regular, long, extra duty, and Cush-n-Stop types - on a 3/4 inch by 12 inch hole pattern. If the opening calls for a track arm instead, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface door closer with a slide track arm as standard, pull side mounting, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with a jamb track, frame face mounting, pull side, adjustable size 1 through 6. Both change the arm geometry and the template, so the mounting holes will not line up with a 1450 footprint.
    8) I need a delayed action closer for an accessible entrance - which options give me that?
    The LCN 1450 is offered with a delayed-action cylinder (CYLDEL) alongside the standard cylinder (CYL), both adjustable across spring sizes 1 through 6, and the closer is ADA compliant. Among other brands, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BHDC2011DA/PA is the same delayed action arrangement in the BHDC2011 series. Those Orca units are tri-packed non-hold-open arm configurations, so the arm ships to cover multiple mounting positions.
    9) My institution requires ANSI Grade 1 - which closers meet that and which fall below it?
    The LCN 1450 is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certified, UL and cUL listed, ADA compliant, and BAA qualified. Grade 1 peers include the Sargent 1131 medium duty, the Dexter DCH1000 tri-mount surface closer with full cover, the Corbin Russwin DC8200 double lever regular arm pull side closer for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal 500S barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, and the Calibre CA4001 adjustable spring tension ADA closer. Two in the same category do not carry Grade 1: the Cal-Royal 400 Series commercial hydraulic closer is Grade 2 and the Falcon SC91A is Grade 3, so neither satisfies a Grade 1 specification.
    10) What finishes does the LCN 1450 come in to match the rest of my door hardware?
    Seven powder coat finishes on the 1450: 622 matte black, 689 aluminum, 690 statuary bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 gloss black, 695 dark bronze, and 696 brass. 689 aluminum and 695 dark bronze are the two that most commonly match existing storefront and commercial openings. The cover itself is a separate choice, slim line plastic (SLIMPC, the default), full plastic (FPC), or a metal cover ordered handed left or right (MC-LH, MC-RH), so if you want a metal cover you need to tell us the hand of the door even though the closer body is non-handed.
    11) Will an LCN 1450 keep working on an exterior door through winter?
    The 1450 is filled with all-weather fluid, which holds closing speed steady as the temperature swings, so a door adjusted in summer doesn't crawl shut in January or slam in a heat wave. That's what makes it usable on exterior and vestibule openings. It's a commercial-rated closer, medium duty, so match it to traffic: exterior service and secondary entrances, yes; a high-abuse main entrance is heavy duty territory.
    12) Is the LCN 1450 approved for a federal or government job?
    Yes, the 1450 is BAA qualified for applicable federal procurement, and it carries ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certification with UL and cUL listings. It's also ADA compliant on door opening force. Those three together are typically what a government, municipal, or institutional spec is asking for on a surface closer.
    13) Should I mount the door closer on the pull side or the push side of the door?
    Depends on the opening, and the 1450 templates for all three. Hinge (regular) mount puts the closer on the pull side, the interior face, which is the usual choice when the closer can be inside and out of the weather. Top jamb mount goes on the frame face, push side, which is what you use when the door itself has no room for the body, common on narrow top rails and exterior out-swinging doors. Parallel arm mount is push side with the arm tucked up against the frame, the most protected and most vandal resistant option, and it's the one that lets you use the Cush-n-Stop arms for built in stop control.
    14) What's a comparable alternative to the LCN 1450 medium duty cast aluminum closer?
    The closest peer ZenSupply stocks is the Falcon SC81A, also a surface mount medium duty cast aluminum closer, Grade 1. Other Grade 1 medium duty surface closers in the same class are the Sargent 1131 and 1331, the Norton Rixson 8501A (adjustable size 1-6 tri-mount), the Norton Rixson 1601P, the BEST HD7000, and the Dormakaba 7303 and 7414. If the budget or the traffic is lighter, the Falcon SC91A is light duty Grade 3 and the Arrow DCN325 is a light duty size 1-6 tri-pack.
    15) Can I replace just the arm on an LCN 1450 instead of the whole closer?
    Yes. Individual 1450 arms and mounting components are available as service parts: the 1450-3077L long arm, the 1450-3049L hold open long arm, the 1450-3077EDA extra duty arm assembly, the 1450-30 Cush shoe support, the 1450-62PA parallel arm flush shoe, the 1450-419 parallel arm flush panel adaptor, and the 1450-61 blade stop spacer. On a bent or torn-off arm the cylinder is usually fine, so swapping the arm gets the door back in service without pulling the body off the door.
    16) What else do I need to order with an LCN 1450 for a parallel arm mount with a blade stop frame?
    Parallel arm mounting on a frame with a blade stop usually needs a spacer or shoe so the arm clears the stop. The 1450-61 blade stop spacer covers that, the 1450-62PA parallel arm flush shoe handles a flush frame condition, and the 1450-419 flush panel adaptor gives you a horizontal mounting surface where the frame doesn't provide one. On a Cush-n-Stop arm the 1450-30 Cush shoe support is the matching part. You can also order the RW62A regular arm with 62A auxiliary shoe or the EDAW62G extra duty arm with 62G thick hub shoe as complete assemblies rather than adding the shoe separately.
    17) Does a hold open arm on the LCN 1450 need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
    The closer body itself is non-handed and goes on either door. Handing only comes in on two ordering choices: the hold open extra duty arm, which is ordered HEDA - LH or HEDA - RH, and the metal cover, which comes MC-LH or MC-RH. The long hold open arm (HLONG), the hold open parallel arm (HWPA), and the Cush hold opens (HCUSH, SHCUSH) don't ask you for a hand. So on a fleet order, one part number and one finish still works unless you're specifying HEDA hold open or a metal cover.
    18) What is the difference between a delayed action closer and a standard door closer, and which LCN 1450 cylinder do I need?
    Standard cylinder (CYL) closes the door at a steady rate from full open. The delayed action cylinder (CYLDEL) adds a hold-back through the early part of the swing, giving someone in a wheelchair, pushing a cart, or moving a patient bed extra seconds to get through before the door starts closing in earnest. Both cylinders adjust across spring sizes 1-6. Specify CYLDEL on healthcare corridors, accessible restrooms, and any opening where people move through slowly; CYL is the default everywhere else. Delayed action is an ordering option on the 1450, not a field-added part, so decide before you buy.
    19) I need the door to hold open - does the 1450 do that or do I need a different closer?
    The LCN 1450 covers hold open through the arm choice rather than a separate model: HLONG hold open long arm, HEDA hold open extra duty arm in left and right hand, HCUSH hold open Cush-n-Stop, SHCUSH spring hold open Cush-n-Stop, and HWPA hold open with parallel arm bracket. If you are pricing other brands for the same function, the Accentra 51 Series is an industrial closer with a tri-packed hold open arm in sizes 1 through 6, the Orca BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open closer with parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm standard in a top jamb configuration.
    20) Which closers besides the LCN 1450 give me the full spring size 1 through 6 range for standardizing across a facility?
    The LCN 1450 adjusts across spring sizes 1 through 6 on both the standard and delayed-action cylinder, so one body covers interior and heavier openings. Peers with the same adjustment range include the Accentra 2701 Series architectural closer with tri-pack mounting and spring sizes 1 through 6, the Accentra 51 Series in sizes 1 through 6, the BEST EHD9000 with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, the Norton Rixson 8501A Grade 1 tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1 through 6 spring, and the Imperial USA TC4300 Grade 1 heavy duty size 1 through 6 ADA closer. Narrower alternatives exist: the Accentra 1101BF and the Arrow DCN314 adjust only 1 through 4, and the Calibre CA9901 covers size 2 through 5.
    21) I searched Stanley 327 and 341 looking for a closer replacement - are those the same kind of part?
    No. The Stanley Security 327 is a heavy wardrobe pivot for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors up to 150 pounds, and the Stanley 341 is a wardrobe pivot for flush recessed or overlay doors from 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch. Pivots carry and swing the door at the top and bottom; they do not control closing speed. The LCN 1450 is a surface-mounted hydraulic door closer mounted to the door or frame face on a 3/4 inch by 12 inch hole pattern with all-weather fluid controlling the close. If you need a closer, a pivot is not a substitute for one.
    22) Does the Arrow DCN500DP drop plate work with an LCN 1450?
    No. The Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate made for the Arrow DCN500 closer, not a universal mounting accessory. The LCN 1450 has its own parallel arm hardware in the 1450 family, including the 1450-62PA parallel arm flush shoe, the 1450-419 parallel arm flush panel adaptor, and the 1450-61 blade stop spacer. Order parallel arm accessories from the 1450 parts rather than adapting a plate cut for another manufacturer's body.
    23) I am replacing an old closer and want the least install work - which closers mount three ways out of the box?
    The LCN 1450 is non-handed and mounts hinge pull side, top jamb push side, or parallel arm push side on the industry's most common 3/4 inch by 12 inch hole pattern, which is what makes it straightforward for aftermarket replacement. Other tri-mount options include the Dexter DCH4000 Grade 1 surface closer for regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting, the Dexter DCM1000 and DCL2000 in the same tri-mount arrangement, the Norton Rixson 1601P Grade 1 tri-mount medium duty closer with 180 degree swing, and the Arrow DCN325 with regular and parallel arm tri-pack. The Design Hardware 316 Series ships a tri-packed non-hold-open arm in a medium to heavy duty body.
    24) I need the closer itself to stop the door instead of adding a floor stop - what are my options?
    The LCN 1450 handles that through its Cush-n-Stop arm family: CUSH, HCUSH hold open, SCUSH spring cush, and SHCUSH spring hold open, all mounted parallel arm push side, with the 1450-30 cush shoe support and 1450-61 blade stop spacer available as components. Among other brands the arm choices run to flat and tri-pack types rather than integral stops - the Dormakaba 8616 carries a flat arm non-hold-open tri-pack configuration in a heavy duty Grade 1 body, and the Design Hardware 116 and 416 Series ship tri-packed non-hold-open arms in heavy duty bodies. If an integral cush stop is what the opening needs, that is what the 1450 arm range is built around.
    25) What should I use on an aluminum storefront door rather than a 1450?
    For narrow-stile aluminum storefront the Norton Rixson 1600 Series is an aluminum storefront door closer with tri-style mounting in a heavy duty Grade 1 body. The Cal-Royal N900PBF is a Grade 1 barrier free surface hydraulic closer in the 900 series, and the Cal-Royal 700S is a Grade 1 dual valve sized closer with an adjustable tube arm. The LCN 1450 is a medium duty commercial closer on a 3/4 inch by 12 inch hole pattern designed for hinge, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting, which assumes enough rail and head frame face to land that pattern.
    26) The 1450 comes in bronze and black powder coat - which other closers cover architectural finishes?
    The LCN 1450 uses a powder coat finish and is offered in 622 matte black, 689 aluminum, 690 statuary bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 gloss black, 695 dark bronze, and 696 brass, with cover choices including the slim line plastic cover, full plastic cover, and metal covers in left and right hand. If the opening is being matched on appearance rather than duty, the Accentra 1900 Series is a traditional surface mounted door closer, and the Dormakaba 7303 Series is a surface-mounted standard duty Grade 1 closer supplied in a painted finish. The Dexter DCH1000 is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer supplied with a full cover.
