Norton Rixson 1859001 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Norton Rixson Quickspotter actually do on a floor closer install?
The Quickspotter is an alignment tool that locates the closer body on the door's pivot centerline before the cement case gets set in the floor. You use it to mark the correct pivot location, so the case and closer go in right the first time instead of being chopped out and repositioned after the concrete has gone off.
2) Which Norton Rixson floor closers does the Quickspotter work with?
It is made for Norton Rixson heavy duty floor closers and works with the 27, 28 and 50 Series as well as other floor closer models. If you are running a mix of those series across a building, the one tool covers them.
3) Is the Quickspotter only for new construction, or can I use it on a retrofit?
Both. It is a handheld tool that needs no power, and it is used on new construction and retrofit floor closer installations alike. On a retrofit you are still confirming the closer sits on the pivot centerline before the case is committed.
4) Does the Quickspotter come with the floor closer or the cement case?
No. It is a separate installation tool ordered on its own, and the single model offered is the Installation Tool itself. The closer, cement case, pivots and threshold plate are all ordered separately, and you should follow the closer's own installation instructions for the actual mounting.
5) Will a Quickspotter help me install another brand's floor closer?
It is developed specifically for Norton Rixson heavy duty floor closers, with the 27, 28 and 50 Series called out. Nothing in its specification covers other manufacturers' cement cases or pivot layouts, so treat it as a Norton Rixson tool.
6) Is the Cal-Royal PDL-200 privacy door latch tool an alternative to the Norton Rixson Quickspotter?
No, they solve different problems. The Norton Rixson 1859001 Quickspotter is a precision alignment tool used to position a floor closer body on the door pivot centerline before the cement case is set, and it works with Norton Rixson 27, 28 and 50 Series floor closers. The Cal-Royal PDL-200 is a steel privacy door latch disengage tool for privacy, bed and bath function latches, used to open a locked privacy door rather than to lay out a closer installation. A contractor setting a floor closer needs the Quickspotter; the PDL-200 belongs on a property manager's key ring for lockouts.
7) If I need a setup tool for electronic access control instead of floor closers, what should I be looking at?
The Norton Rixson 1859001 Quickspotter is a mechanical layout tool for floor closer installation and has no electronic function. For Trilogy electronic access control setup, the Alarm Lock DTM-III data transfer module handles lock data with a 200-lock capacity, the Alarm Lock PCI2-U is a USB computer interface cable with DL-Windows software for programming, and the Alarm Lock PRE2 is a 9V battery operated proximity card enroller for HID and iClass credentials. Those three are programming and credential tools; the Quickspotter is a jobsite alignment tool that requires no power.
8) Do I need a Quickspotter if I am only setting one floor closer?
It is a reusable layout tool, not a part of the closer, so nothing about the door assembly depends on it. It earns its keep where a misplaced cement case means breaking concrete, which is true even on a single opening. Crews doing repeat commercial, school, healthcare or retail floor closer work generally keep one in the truck.
9) Is the Quickspotter a door latch or strike adjustment tool?
No, and it is worth separating the two. The Quickspotter sets floor closer position relative to the pivot; it has nothing to do with latching. For latch side adjustment on a commercial opening you are looking at something like the ABH 1890 Series roller latch with 5/16 inch adjustable projection or the ABH 1895 Series with a T strike and 1/2 inch adjustable projection. For popping a stuck privacy latch, the Cal-Royal PDL-200 steel disengage tool is the tool for that job.
10) Will a template strike like the Cal-Royal ASA478 help me lay out a floor closer?
No. The Cal-Royal ASA478 is an ASA template strike for commercial door hardware, meaning it is a strike installed in the frame at the latch, not a layout device. Floor closer positioning is what the Norton Rixson 1859001 Quickspotter is for: it marks the correct pivot location so the cement case and closer body land right the first time, which avoids repositioning a set cement case. The two are used at opposite ends of the opening and are not interchangeable.
