LCN 4513T-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the LCN 4513T work on a 5-foot-wide door?
Only interior. The 4513T ships with a sized cylinder rated for interior doors to 5'0" and exterior doors to 4'0". The non-sized cylinder version is adjustable for interior doors to 4'6" and exterior to 3'6". So a 5-foot interior opening is within range, but a 5-foot exterior door is past what this closer is sized for and you need a larger closer.
2) How much clearance do I need above the door for an LCN 4513T?
Plan on 2-1/4 inches of clearance for the 4513T. That is the figure to check against your frame face and any soffit, transom, or trim above the opening before you commit. Tight head conditions are the most common reason a surface closer will not go where the drawing says it should.
3) Is the LCN 4513T a good closer for a jail or a school where people mess with the hardware?
That is exactly what it is built for. The 4513T is the high security version of the 4510T family: forged steel double lever arms, heavy gauge metal security covers, and tamper-resistant regulating screws so the closing speed cannot be backed off by hand. The cylinder is high-strength cast iron with a one-piece forged steel piston and a double-heat-treated pinion. LCN calls out correctional, institutional, vandal-prone, and high traffic openings for it.
4) Does the LCN 4513T meet ADA and Grade 1 for a government or healthcare facility?
Both. The 4513T meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 and ADA requirements, and it is UL and cUL listed for self-closing doors with regular or fusible link arms. It is also BAA qualified, which matters on federally funded work. Those four together are usually the whole spec-compliance question on an institutional submittal.
5) The 4513T mounts on the push side. What closer do I use if the closer has to go on the pull side of the door?
The 4513T is a surface closer mounted on the push side, stop face. If the opening requires the closer body on the pull side, the Corbin Russwin DC6200 Series and DC8200 Series are Grade 1 surface closers with a double lever regular arm in pull side mounting, and the Corbin Russwin DC5230 Series is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm in pull side mounting; all three are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Dormakaba 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer mounted frame face on the pull side. Confirm the mounting side on the drawing before ordering, because the 4513T body and arm are laid out for stop face push side and do not relocate.
6) What is the closest heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer to the LCN 4513T from another brand?
For a straight heavy duty Grade 1 swap on a surface-mounted opening, the closest peers are the Sargent 281 Powerglide cast iron surface closer, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide, the BEST HD8000 Series, and the Falcon SC71A Series - all four are listed as heavy duty and Grade 1 surface closers. The 4513T is the heavy duty choice when the opening also needs the high security package: forged steel double lever arms, heavy gauge metal security covers, tamper-resistant regulating screws, and Torx machine screw fasteners. If the door only needs heavy duty closing power and not vandal resistance, the Sargent 281 and BEST HD8000 cover the mechanical duty; if the closer is going on a correctional or vandal-prone opening, the tamper-resistant hardware on the 4513T is what the peers do not list.
7) Which door closer should I use on an interior office door that does not need tamper resistance?
The 4513T is built for correctional, institutional and vandal-prone openings, with cast iron construction, forged steel arms and security covers. A standard interior office door with normal traffic does not need that package. Medium duty Grade 1 surface closers cover it: the Sargent 1131, the Sargent 1331 with its universal aluminum body, the BEST HD7000 Series with adjustable spring power and backcheck, the Norton Rixson 1601P tri-mount, the Norton Rixson 8501A with adjustable size 1-6 spring, or the Falcon SC81A cast aluminum closer. Keep the 4513T where the closer itself is a target.
8) I need one closer model that covers a range of door widths across a building. Is the 4513T the right pick?
The 4513T is a sized closer - it is supplied as closer size 3, so each opening has to be matched to the size rather than dialed in after hanging. If a facility wants one part number stocked and adjusted per door, adjustable spring size closers are the better standardization play: the BEST EHD9000 Series is extra heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Imperial USA TC4300 is Grade 1 heavy duty size 1-6, the Dormakaba 8916-JT is heavy duty Grade 1 adjustable size 1-6, and the Norton Rixson 8501A offers adjustable size 1-6 in a Grade 1 tri-mount body. Where the openings are correctional or vandal-prone, the 4513T's forged steel arms, security covers and tamper-resistant regulating screws are the reason to specify by size instead.
9) Can I put a closer on the 4513T opening that holds the door open?
The 4513T is a non-hold-open closer and it is UL and cUL listed for self-closing doors with regular or fusible link arms, which is what a fire-rated or self-closing opening requires. Where hold open is genuinely wanted and the opening allows it, the Accentra 51 Series is supplied with a tri-packed hold open arm, the Orca Hardware 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 in top jamb mounting. Note that the 4513T also has no delay function, so if delayed closing is the requirement rather than hold open, the Orca BHDC1958DA/PA and BHDC2011DA/PA are delayed action closers with a regular arm and parallel bracket.
10) Is a Grade 1 light duty closer the same thing as the 4513T?
No - Grade 1 and heavy duty are two separate ratings, and several Grade 1 closers are light duty. The Arrow DC314 in the DC300 Series is Grade 1 and light duty, the BEST SL6000 Series is Grade 1 light duty with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is Grade 1 light duty light commercial, and the Falcon SC91A is light duty at Grade 3. The 4513T is Grade 1 and heavy duty, with a cast iron cylinder, one-piece forged steel piston and double-heat-treated pinion. If a submittal calls for heavy duty, matching only the Grade 1 line on a light duty closer will not satisfy it.
11) Do I need special tools to install or adjust an LCN 4513T?
Yes, bring Torx drivers. The 4513T is fastened with Torx machine screws rather than standard Phillips or slotted heads, and the regulating screws are tamper-resistant. That is deliberate, it is what keeps occupants out of the adjustment, but it means a maintenance tech without the right bits cannot touch the closing or latching speed on site.
12) Will an LCN 4513T hold a door open, or does it always close?
It always closes. The 4513T has no delayed action function and is not a hold-open closer. If the opening needs the door to stand open, look at a hold-open arm closer instead: the Accentra 51 Series and the Orca BHDC1958 HO/PA are both hold-open arm models. Neither is a high security closer, though, so on a correctional or vandal-prone opening you are trading tamper resistance for the hold-open.
13) Will an LCN 4513T hold up outdoors in cold weather?
The 4513T uses all-weather fluid, so closing speed stays consistent through temperature swings rather than crawling in the cold and slamming in the heat. On exterior openings the limit is size, not weather: the sized cylinder covers exterior doors to 4'0" wide.
14) How far will a door with an LCN 4513T open?
Up to 180 degrees, so the 4513T will not, on its own, stop the door short of a full swing. Where the wall or adjacent hardware cannot take a 180 degree swing, you need a stop or an arm with a built-in stop to control it. Worth checking on corridor and cell-side openings where the door has somewhere to hit.
15) I need a closer for a light traffic interior office door. Is the LCN 4513T overkill?
For a low abuse office door, yes. The 4513T is a heavy duty cast iron high security closer built for correctional and vandal-prone work. A light or medium duty Grade 1 surface closer covers an ordinary interior opening for less hardware: the Arrow DC314 or the BEST SL6000 in light duty, the BEST HD7000 or the Norton Rixson 1601P in medium. Save the 4513T for the openings that keep getting torn off the frame.
16) What closer size is the LCN 4513T, and can I adjust the spring power after it is installed?
The 4513T is a size 3 sized cylinder closer. Sized means the spring power is set by the model you buy, not dialed in on the wall, which is part of why it resists tampering. If you need one closer that covers a range of door widths across a building, a field-adjustable spring model is the better buy, the BEST EHD9000 and the Imperial USA TC4300 both cover sizes 1 through 6. For a fixed opening you already know, a sized cylinder gives you consistent force nobody can change.
17) Which closers ship without a cover, and does that matter next to the 4513T?
It matters on a security opening. The 4513T carries heavy gauge metal security covers and tamper-resistant regulating screws, which is the point of the model - the cover is part of the vandal resistance, not trim. The Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 are Grade 1 surface closers supplied less cover, with regular or parallel arm tri-pack and adjustable spring sizes 1-4 and 1-6 respectively. The Design Hardware 316 Series is a heavy duty closer supplied with cover, and the Dexter DCH1000 Series is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with a full cover. On a correctional or vandal-prone door, a less-cover closer leaves the valves exposed.
18) Our spec requires an ADA compliant barrier free closer. Does the 4513T meet it, and what else does?
The 4513T is ADA compliant and meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1, so it answers an ADA opening while still carrying the tamper-resistant construction. Peers written specifically for barrier free work include the Cal-Royal 500S, a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, and the Cal-Royal N900PBF in the 900 Series, a Grade 1 barrier free hydraulic surface closer. The Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 ADA surface mount closer with a tri-pack arm in sizes 2-5, the Calibre CA4001 is a Grade 1 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer, and the Imperial USA TC4300 is a Grade 1 heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer. Where the door is also a security or correctional opening, the 4513T is the one of these carrying forged steel arms and security covers.
19) We are on a Buy American job. Does the 4513T qualify, and what happens if I substitute?
The 4513T is BAA qualified, so it clears a Buy American requirement on federal and municipal work while still delivering Grade 1 heavy duty performance with tamper-resistant construction. That is a separate line item from grade and duty: a peer being Grade 1 heavy duty - the Sargent 281, the BEST HD8000, the Falcon SC71A - speaks to the mechanical rating, not to BAA compliance. If the submittal carries a Buy American clause, confirm qualification on any substitute before it goes on the schedule.
20) Is a wardrobe pivot or hinge screw an alternative to a 4513T closer?
No. The 4513T is a hydraulic surface-mounted door closer that controls the swing and self-closes the door. Items that come up alongside it in a heavy duty search are different parts entirely: the Stanley Security 327 is a heavy wardrobe pivot for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch doors up to 150 lbs, the Stanley Security 341 is a wardrobe pivot for flush recessed or overlay doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch, and the Stanley Security 57-0100 is a box of 100 steel machine screws for architectural hinges. Pivots hang and swing the door; none of them close it. Likewise the Arrow DCN500DP parallel drop plate is a mounting plate for a DCN500 closer, not a closer.
21) What is the difference between the 4513T and a Grade 2 commercial closer for a multi-family corridor?
The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic door closer, which is a lower ANSI/BHMA cycle and abuse rating than the Grade 1 the 4513T carries. On a corridor door in a building with steady tenant traffic and no vandalism history, a Grade 2 closer is a normal fit. The 4513T is built the other way: Grade 1, heavy duty, cast iron cylinder, forged steel double lever arms, security covers and tamper-resistant screws, for openings where the closer itself gets attacked or where an institutional spec calls Grade 1. If a facility standard or a code review names Grade 1, a Grade 2 closer will not carry it.
22) Is the 4513T the right closer for an aluminum storefront entrance?
The 4513T is specified as an interior door closer, sized for interior doors to 5 feet and exterior doors to 4 feet with sized cylinders, and it carries all-weather fluid. For a narrow-stile aluminum storefront entrance, the Norton Rixson 1600BC Series is described as an aluminum storefront door closer with tri-style mounting, heavy duty and Grade 1, which is the body built for that frame condition. Keep the 4513T on solid institutional openings where the vandal-resistant construction is the requirement.
23) What finishes does the LCN 4513T come in?
Six powder coat finishes on the 4513T: 689 aluminum, 690 statuary bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 gloss black, 695 dark bronze, and 696 brass. Powder coat, not plated, which is the finish you want on a high abuse opening because it takes knocks better than a lacquered plate. Pick the number that matches the hinges and exit devices already on the other doors and the run will look like one package.
24) Do the finish options on the 4513T line up with other commercial closers?
The 4513T is a powder coat finish closer offered in 689 aluminum, 690 statuary bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 gloss black, 695 dark bronze and 696 brass, and handing is ordered left hand or right hand. Among the peers, the Dorma 8916-JT and the Dormakaba 8616 are catalogued in 689, and the DORMA 7303 and 7414 are painted finish closers. If a corridor is being matched to existing 689 aluminum hardware, the 4513T covers it in the same standard finish number while adding the security construction.
