Locinox USA VERTICLOSE-2-ZILV – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need a different gate closer for 180 degree hinges, or will the VERTICLOSE-2 do both?
One part covers both. The VERTICLOSE-2 ships with rail sets for 90 degree and for 180 degree gate hinge configurations, so you pick the rail set that matches the hinge geometry at install rather than ordering a hinge-specific model. That matters on retrofits where you may not know the hinge swing until the gate is in front of you.
2) Is the VERTICLOSE-2 gate closer ADA compliant for a public entry gate?
Yes, with a width condition. The VERTICLOSE-2 is ADA compliant at 5 lb or less opening force and a maximum of 25 Nm torque on gates at least 4 ft wide. Narrower than 4 ft and you lose the leverage the compliance figure depends on, so for accessible routes specify the gate leaf at 4 ft or wider.
3) What is the closest alternative to the Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 for a heavy exterior gate?
The Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 is a hydraulic gate closer rated for gates up to 330 lb and up to 500,000 movement cycles, with rail sets for both 90 degree and 180 degree hinge configurations. The nearest exterior peer is the Norton Rixson Model 1351, an exterior gate specialty closer for 250 lb gates in the 1351 Series. The two differ in rated gate weight, so confirm the leaf weight of the gate before choosing between them.
4) Is there a lighter duty gate closer than the VERTICLOSE-2 for a smaller gate?
Yes. The Norton Rixson Model 1351 is classified as Light Duty and is an exterior gate specialty closer for 250 lb gates, while the VERTICLOSE-2 is built for gates up to 330 lb and up to 500,000 movement cycles. For a light pedestrian gate, the 1351 covers the weight; for a heavy clad or ornamental leaf approaching 330 lb with high daily traffic, the VERTICLOSE-2 carries the higher rating.
5) Which gate closer meets the ADA opening force requirement for an accessible path of travel?
The Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 is ADA compliant with less than 5 lb of opening force and a maximum 25 Nm torque on gates at least 4 ft wide. The Norton Rixson peers are described by duty and action: the Model 1351 is a Light Duty exterior gate closer for 250 lb gates and the Model 354 is a double-acting interior closer for 75 lb doors. Where the accessible route runs through the gate, the stated less-than-5-lb figure on the VERTICLOSE-2 is the number to specify against.
6) Will an aluminum gate closer survive outdoors year round on a perimeter gate?
The VERTICLOSE-2 housing is anodized aluminum, corrosion resistant and scratch proof, finished in a silver (ZILV) powder coat, and it is the only finish the closer is offered in. It is specified for outdoor gate duty, which is the normal application for this closer: commercial property perimeters, multi-unit residential, parking entries and warehouse yards.
7) How many cycles is the VERTICLOSE-2 rated for on a high traffic gate?
Up to 500,000 movement cycles. On a multi-family or parking entry gate that gets opened a few hundred times a day, that is the number to work your replacement interval against, and it is why this closer is specified as commercial rather than residential-grade hardware.
8) Can I adjust how fast the gate closes and how hard it latches?
Both, separately. The VERTICLOSE-2 has hydraulic damping with micro-adjustment for closing speed and for the final snap, so you can slow the sweep for pedestrian safety while keeping enough final push to drive the latch home. That split adjustment is the reason to choose a hydraulic closer over a spring-only one on a gate that has to latch reliably.
9) Can I substitute the Norton Rixson 354 for the Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 on an exterior perimeter gate?
No. The Norton Rixson Model 354 is a double-acting interior gate specialty closer for 75 lb doors, so it is rated for interior service at a fraction of the weight. The VERTICLOSE-2 is rated for gates up to 330 lb with anodized, corrosion-resistant, scratch-proof aluminum housing for long-term outdoor use. For an exterior leaf, the exterior-rated options are the VERTICLOSE-2 or the Norton Rixson Model 1351 for 250 lb gates.
10) I need to standardize gate closers across a multi-building property with both interior and exterior gates. How do these break out?
Three roles cover it. The Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 handles exterior leaves up to 330 lb at up to 500,000 movement cycles with ADA-compliant operation under 5 lb of opening force, in a Silver anodized aluminum housing. The Norton Rixson Model 1351, 1351 Series, is a Light Duty exterior gate closer for 250 lb gates. The Norton Rixson Model 354, 350 Series, is a double-acting interior gate closer for 75 lb doors. Sort each opening by interior or exterior, leaf weight, and whether it swings one way or both, then match it to the closer rated for that case.
11) Does the VERTICLOSE-2 or the Norton Rixson 1351 work as a retrofit on gates with 180 degree hinges?
The Locinox VERTICLOSE-2 ships with rail sets for both 90 degree and 180 degree gate hinges and uses a patented Quick-Fix mounting mechanism plus a built-in pre-tension adjustment for fast, stable retrofit installation. The Norton Rixson Model 1351 is identified as a Light Duty exterior gate specialty closer for 250 lb gates in the 1351 Series. Where the existing hinge arrangement is 180 degree, the dual rail sets supplied with the VERTICLOSE-2 cover that geometry directly.
12) Is the VERTICLOSE-2 suitable for a residential driveway gate, or is it overkill?
It is catalogued as commercial hardware, but the intended applications include high-end residential entryways and multi-unit residential complexes alongside institutional and municipal gate systems. On a single-family gate the 330 lb capacity and 500,000 cycle rating are more than the traffic demands; the reason people still put it there is the adjustable hydraulic close and the concealed, low-profile silver housing rather than the duty rating.
