LCN 4516-652 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door widths will the LCN 4516 high security closer handle?
The 4516 uses sized cylinders that cover interior doors up to 5'0" wide and exterior doors up to 4'0". If you order the non-sized cylinder instead, the adjustable range drops to interior doors to 4'6" and exterior doors to 3'6". The listed closer size is 6, so it is a heavy spring intended for wide, heavy openings rather than light interior doors.
2) Is the LCN 4516 door closer ADA compliant for opening force?
No. The 4516 is not ADA compliant, and that is by design: it is a size 6 high security closer built for correctional and institutional openings where spring power and vandal resistance matter more than a reduced opening force. If your opening is on an accessible route governed by ADA opening force, specify a barrier-free closer instead, such as the Cal-Royal 500S Grade 1 barrier free closer or the Cal-Royal N900PBF barrier free surface closer.
3) Where does the LCN 4516 mount on the door, and how much clearance do I need?
It is a surface mount closer installed on the pull side at the hinge, so the body goes on the door face and the double lever arm reaches to the frame. Required clearance is 2-1/4 inches. If your opening has a narrow head frame or a stop condition that does not give that clearance on the pull side, a parallel arm or top jamb mounted closer is the right call, for example the Norton Rixson 1600 Series tri-mount or the Dexter DCH4000 tri-mount closer.
4) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the LCN 4516?
Yes, handing is required. You choose Right Hand or Left Hand, with Right Hand as the default. Determine handing from the outside of the door, standing on the side where the door swings away from you, and order to match; a hinge-side pull-side closer is not reversible in the field on this model.
5) Is the LCN 4516 UL listed for use on a fire rated door?
The 4516 is UL and cUL listed for self-closing doors with regular or fusible link arms, which is what a fire door assembly requires from the closer. It also meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1. On a fire rated opening, do not order a hold-open arm unless it is fusible link or electrically released.
6) I just need a heavy duty Grade 1 closer for an office or school corridor, not a detention door. Is the 4516 overkill?
Probably, yes. The 4516 is a size 6 non-ADA high security closer with security covers and Torx fasteners, aimed at correctional and vandal-prone openings. For a standard heavy duty commercial corridor, look at the BEST EHD9000 extra heavy duty adjustable size 1-6, the Falcon SC71A heavy duty, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide heavy duty, or the Design Hardware 416 Series heavy duty tri-pack. Those give adjustable spring power and mounting flexibility the 4516 trades away for security.
7) I need a heavy duty Grade 1 closer but the opening is not a security door - what should I use instead of the LCN 4516?
For a standard commercial opening without vandalism concerns, a heavy duty Grade 1 closer without the security package will serve: the BEST EHD9000 Series is extra heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Falcon SC71A is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer, and the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable spring power. The LCN 4516 is built for correctional and vandal-prone applications with tamper-resistant regulating screws and heavy gauge metal security covers, and it uses sized cylinders rather than a field-adjustable 1-6 spring.
8) Which alternatives give tri-mount flexibility if the LCN 4516 pull side mounting will not work on my frame?
The LCN 4516 mounts surface, hinge pull side only. Where the opening needs top jamb or parallel arm mounting, the Dexter DCH1000 Series is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with full cover, the Dexter DCH4000 and DCM1000 are Grade 1 tri-mount, and the Dormakaba 8616 AF86P is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer supplied tri-pack with a flat arm. The Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer for frame face mounting on the pull side, adjustable size 1-6.
9) What is the difference between the CYL and CYLAVB cylinder options on the LCN 4516?
Cylinder choice is required on every order. The default CYL is the standard cast iron cylinder assembly. CYLAVB is the Advanced Variable Back Check cylinder, which gives you adjustable back check to control how hard the door can be thrown open. On exterior openings exposed to wind, or anywhere abuse is expected, the variable back check option is the one to specify.
10) Can the LCN 4516 be used on an exterior door in cold or hot climates?
Yes. The 4516 is approved for both interior and exterior doors and is filled with all-weather fluid, so closing speed stays consistent through temperature swings. The body is cast iron with a one-piece forged steel piston and double-heat-treated pinion. On exterior openings, note the size limit is 4'0" wide with the sized cylinder.
11) Does the LCN 4516 have delayed action, and how far will the door swing?
Delayed action is included, so you can slow the door through the first part of its swing to let a cart, a gurney or someone with an armload get through. Maximum door opening is 180 degrees, provided nothing in the opening, wall or adjacent trim stops the door short of that.
12) Is the LCN 4516 acceptable for a federal project with Buy American requirements?
Yes, the 4516 is BAA qualified, which is what a government or federally funded institutional job typically asks for on door controls. It is a commercial-only product, not a residential closer.
13) What is a comparable double lever arm pull side closer to the LCN 4516?
The Corbin Russwin DC8200 Series is a Grade 1 surface closer with a double lever regular arm and pull side mounting, and the DC6200 Series shares that same double lever regular arm and pull side configuration for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both parallel the LCN 4516's forged steel double lever arms and pull side hinge mounting. The 4516 differs in adding heavy gauge metal security covers and tamper-resistant regulating screws for correctional work.
14) Can a light duty Grade 1 closer like the Arrow DC314 replace the LCN 4516?
No. The Arrow DC314 is a Grade 1 surface closer rated light duty, as are the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325, and the BEST SL6000 Series. The LCN 4516 is a heavy duty closer with a cast iron body, forged steel piston and double-heat-treated pinion sized for interior doors to 5 feet and exterior doors to 4 feet. Grade 1 alone does not make a light duty closer an equivalent on the openings the 4516 is specified for.
15) I need a hold open arm - does the LCN 4516 offer that, or should I look at another closer?
The LCN 4516 is offered with a choice of standard cast iron cylinder or advanced variable back check cylinder and with delayed action, in right hand or left hand. If the opening calls for a mechanical hold open arm, the Accentra 51 Series is supplied with a tri-packed hold open arm in sizes 1 through 6, and the Orca BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open closer with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) Is the Cal-Royal 400 Series an acceptable substitute for the LCN 4516?
Not on a specification that calls for Grade 1. The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer, while the LCN 4516 meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 with cast iron body and all-weather fluid for exterior use. If Grade 2 is acceptable for the opening, the 400 Series applies; if the drawing states Grade 1 heavy duty, look at the Cal-Royal 700S Grade 1 dual valve sized closer instead.
17) What heavy duty closers compare to the LCN 4516 for an exterior door?
The LCN 4516 uses all-weather fluid and is rated for exterior doors to 4 feet with sized cylinders. Comparable heavy duty Grade 1 units for exterior openings include the Norton Rixson 1600BC Series aluminum storefront closer with tri-style mounting, the Falcon SC71A heavy duty Grade 1, and the Design Hardware 416 Series heavy duty closer supplied with a tri-packed non-hold open arm. None of those carry the 4516's tamper-resistant security covers.
18) If I want one adjustable closer to stock across a facility instead of the sized LCN 4516, what are the options?
The LCN 4516 ships with sized cylinders covering interior doors to 5 feet and exterior to 4 feet, plus a non-sized cylinder adjustable for interior doors to 4 feet 6 inches and exterior to 3 feet 6 inches. For a single field-adjustable unit to standardize on, the BEST EHD9000 Series is extra heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Accentra 2701 offers adjustable spring sizes 1-6 with tri-pack mounting, and the Imperial USA TC4300 is a Grade 1 heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer.
19) What finishes does the LCN 4516 plated closer come in, and will it match my other door hardware?
Six plated finishes are offered: 632 bright brass, 633 satin brass, 639 satin bronze, 646 satin nickel, 651 bright chrome and 652 satin chrome. Those are standard BHMA finish numbers, so you can match the closer to lever trim or exit devices already specified on the same finish code across a building.
20) Where do I find the mounting template for the LCN 4516 before I drill the door?
LCN publishes a templates and instructions index covering its closers and auto operators, and the high security catalog section carries the 4510 Series data. Pull the template for the 4516 in your handing before laying out holes, since this is a pull side hinge mount with 2-1/4 inches of clearance and the arm geometry is not interchangeable with a parallel arm layout.
21) What is a medium duty alternative to the LCN 4516 for an interior office door?
On lighter interior traffic, a medium duty Grade 1 closer is the usual specification: the BEST HD7000 Series, the Norton Rixson 1601P with tri-mount design and 180 degree swing, the Norton Rixson 8501A with adjustable size 1-6 spring, or the Sargent 1131. The LCN 4516 is a heavy duty closer with sized cylinders for interior doors to 5 feet and a tamper-resistant security build intended for correctional and vandal-prone openings.
22) Does any comparable closer match the LCN 4516 plated finish options?
The LCN 4516 is offered in plated finishes 632 bright brass, 633 satin brass, 639 satin bronze, 646 satin nickel, 651 bright chrome and 652 satin chrome. Among the comparable closers, the Dorma 7303 and Dormakaba 7414 are catalogued in painted finish, and the Dorma 8916-JT and 8616 are offered in 689. If the finish schedule calls for a plated brass, bronze, nickel or chrome closer, the 4516 finish range is the direct answer.
