LCN 4040XP-18G-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the LCN 18G drop plate work on my frame, and what head frame size do I need?
You need at least a 1-3/4 inch (44 mm) head frame face for the 18G plate to mount properly. On anything narrower, the plate has nowhere to land and you should look at a different mounting arrangement rather than forcing it. Measure the flat face of the head frame, not the overall frame depth.
2) Does the 4040XP drop plate fit all LCN 4000 Series door closers?
The 18G drop plate is made for LCN 4000 Series closers, including the 4040XP. It is a top jamb mounting accessory, so it applies where the closer is being mounted on the frame face rather than on the door or on the parallel arm side. If your closer is from a different LCN family or another brand, this is not the plate for it.
3) What finishes does the LCN 4040XP-18G drop plate come in?
Ten finishes, so the plate can be matched to the closer already on the opening: 689 aluminum, 690 statuary bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 gloss black, 695 dark bronze, 696 brass, 616 satin bronze blackened, 632 bright brass, 651 bright chrome, and 652 satin chrome. For a property manager standardizing a building, 689 aluminum and 695 dark bronze are the two that match the bulk of commercial closer stock, and ordering the plate in the same finish code as the closer is what keeps the opening from looking patched.
4) Is a drop plate needed on every top jamb closer install, or only some?
Only some. A drop plate earns its place when the frame face or the ceiling condition will not let the closer mount in its normal position, which is exactly the flush ceiling case the 18G addresses. On a standard opening with clear frame face above the door, the closer mounts direct and no plate is required. Adding one where it is not needed just moves the arm geometry and costs you adjustment range.
5) Is the LCN 18G drop plate ADA compliant for accessible openings?
ADA compliant, per LCN. Worth understanding what that means in practice though: the plate is a mounting bracket, and ADA performance on a closer opening comes down to opening force and closing speed set at the closer valves. The plate does not change that as long as the closer is adjusted correctly after it is mounted.
6) Is the 18G a repair part I can order on its own to fix an existing closer install?
Yes, the 18G is stocked as a replacement part and orders separately from the closer. That is the usual case for it: a closer already on the opening, a plate that got damaged, painted over, or lost during a frame replacement. Match the finish code to the closer that is staying on the door.
