Norton Rixson 5-126-652 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How do I pick the right size Checkmate concealed stop for my door width?
Size is chosen by door opening width, and the hanging method changes which range you land in. The 5 Series covers 18 to 24 inch butt hung offset doors, 24-1/16 to 30 inch butt offset (or 27 to 32 inch center hung), 30-1/16 to 36 inch butt offset (or 32-1/16 to 38-1/2 inch center hung), 36-1/16 to 42 inch butt offset (or 38-9/16 to 45 inch center hung), and 42-1/16 to 48 inch butt offset (or 45-1/16 to 48 inch center hung). Measure the door leaf width and note whether it swings on butt hinges or a center pivot before you order.
2) What is the difference between the Stop and Hold Open versions of the Norton Rixson 5 Series?
Two functions are offered. The Stop version limits how far the door travels and nothing more. The Hold Open version does the same and also catches the door at the open position until it is released, which is what you want on a door being propped for deliveries, cleaning carts or moving traffic. Both stop at the templated angle, up to 110 degrees. Pick Stop for any door that must be free to close on its own, and Hold Open where staff would otherwise kick a wedge under it.
3) Does the Norton Rixson Checkmate meet ANSI Grade 1 for a spec that calls for it?
Certain models of the 5 Series Checkmate are ANSI/BHMA A156.8 Grade 1 certified, with UL listed stop functions. The grade is not blanket across every size and function combination, so when a drawing calls out A156.8 Grade 1, confirm the exact size range and function you are ordering carries it before you release the order.
4) The opening degree on the 5 Series Checkmate is set by templating. What concealed overhead stop lets me adjust the stop point in the field?
The ABH adjustable families are built for that. The ABH 1000A Series is a heavy duty concealed mount overhead stop and holder with field-adjustable opening control, and the ABH 1000RA and 1000SA Series are heavy duty concealed mount stops and holders with adjustable opening control. On the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate the degree of opening is determined by templating and is not field adjustable, with 110 degrees as the maximum, so if the stop angle may change after install or is not settled at the time of order, the adjustable ABH series is the direction to go.
5) The 5 Series Checkmate is standard duty. What concealed overhead stop should I use on a heavy traffic opening instead?
Step up to a heavy duty concealed device. The Glynn-Johnson 100 Series is a heavy duty concealed overhead door holder and stop, and Glynn-Johnson describes it as multi-function and non-handed. The Sargent 690 is a heavy duty overhead concealed stop and holder with ANSI Grade 1 compliance, and the ABH 1000 Series is a heavy duty concealed mount overhead door stop with a fire rating. The Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is standard duty construction intended for moderate traffic, medium weight interior doors, so on a high-cycle entry or a stairwell the heavy duty families are the ones to spec.
6) I need a fire rated concealed overhead stop. Is the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate the right choice?
The 5 Series Checkmate is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.8 Grade 1 on certain models with UL listed stop functions. Where the opening calls for a fire rated concealed overhead stop specifically, the ABH 1000 Series is the one in the comparable group carried as a heavy duty concealed mount overhead door stop with a fire rating. Confirm the rating against the door and frame label before ordering either one.
7) The door and frame are not prepped for a concealed device. What overhead stop can I use instead of the 5 Series Checkmate?
Go to a surface mounted family. The Glynn-Johnson 70 Series is a heavy duty surface overhead door holder and stop with an 85 to 110 degree hold-open range, and the Glynn-Johnson 79 Series is an extra heavy duty surface overhead door holder and stop, also heavy duty rated. The Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is a concealed mounting device, which means routing the door and frame per the manufacturer template; the surface Glynn-Johnson units apply to the face of the door and soffit instead, which is the usual path on a retrofit where no concealed prep exists.
8) What keeps the door from slamming into a hard stop on a concealed overhead stop like this?
A heavy shock absorber spring takes the hit. On the Checkmate 5 Series the spring compresses 5 to 7 degrees before the door reaches the dead stop, so the energy is bled off instead of being dumped into the hinges and frame. The slider cam and shock block run in a 3/4 inch square channel. That cushion is the reason an overhead stop lasts on a door that gets pushed open hard.
9) Should I use a concealed overhead stop or a surface mounted one?
Concealed, like the 5 Series Checkmate, hides in the top of the door and the frame soffit. Nothing shows when the door is closed, which is why it gets specified in lobbies and finished interiors, but the door and frame have to be routed for it, so it is far easier on new doors than on doors already hung. Surface mounted units bolt to the face of the door and the frame with no routing, which makes them the practical retrofit on an existing opening. Glynn-Johnson 70 Series and 79 Series are the surface mounted overhead stops we carry.
10) Do I need to buy mounting screws separately for the Checkmate concealed stop?
No, fasteners come with it. Each Checkmate 5 Series unit ships with a complete screw packet for wood installation plus machine screws for door and frame mounting. Torx screws are an option for the exposed fasteners where tamper resistance matters, which is worth specifying in schools, detention areas and public restrooms.
11) Can this overhead stop be used on a double acting door?
Yes. The 5 Series Checkmate is rated for single or double acting doors, so it will work on a door that swings both ways, such as a center pivot hung leaf. The size ranges are called out separately for center hung doors, from 27 inches up to 48 inches, so order against the center hung column rather than the butt hung one on those openings.
12) What do I have to specify when ordering a Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate?
Four things. Door opening size range, matched to whether the leaf is butt hung offset or center hung. Function, either Stop or Hold Open. Finish, from the eight offered. And whether you want Torx security screws on the exposed fasteners. The opening angle is not an order option, it is fixed by the template at install, up to 110 degrees.
13) How does the Glynn-Johnson 410 Series compare to the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate?
Both are concealed overhead door holders and stops for commercial interior work. Glynn-Johnson lists the 410 Series at medium duty; the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is standard duty with certain models certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.8 Grade 1 and a 110 degree maximum opening. The 5 Series is ordered by door opening range with butts offset and center hung dimensions called out separately, and is rated for single or double acting doors, so a center hung or double acting opening is where the 5 Series ordering data speaks directly.
14) Is the DORMA 900 Series a direct substitute for the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate?
Not a like-for-like swap. The DORMA 900 Series is a heavy duty stop and holder family, while the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is standard duty construction for moderate traffic, medium weight interior doors. Within Dormakaba, the standard duty part is the 711F concealed friction stop for a 21 to 27 inch door opening. Match the duty level to the opening before treating either DORMA part as a replacement for a 5 Series Checkmate.
15) I am standardizing overhead stops across a building. Which concealed families cover both stop-only and hold-open openings?
The Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is ordered in a Stop or a Hold Open function from one series, across eight finishes including 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 652 satin chromium, 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 696 satin brass painted, BSP black suede powder and WSP white suede powder, which lets one finish carry the whole facility. On the heavy duty side, the Glynn-Johnson 100 Series is a multi-function non-handed concealed holder and stop, and the Sargent 690 is a heavy duty concealed stop and holder with ANSI Grade 1 compliance. Non-handed stock, as with the Glynn-Johnson 100 Series, cuts the number of part numbers a storeroom has to carry.
16) Does the Sargent 690 replace a Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate on the same opening?
They are both concealed overhead stops and holders, but they sit at different duty levels. Sargent lists the 690 as heavy duty within the 590 Series with ANSI Grade 1 compliance; the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate is standard duty with certain models certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.8 Grade 1. The 5 Series uses a slide track arm with a heavy shock absorber spring giving 5 to 7 degrees of compression before dead stop. Because concealed prep follows each manufacturer's own template, treat a change between the two as a new door and frame prep rather than a drop-in exchange.
17) For a high security or tamper prone opening, what concealed overhead stop options are there?
The Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate can be ordered with Torx security screws for exposed fasteners in high security areas, chosen at the time of order. Among the concealed peers, the Glynn-Johnson 100 Series is a heavy duty non-handed concealed holder and stop and the Sargent 690 is a heavy duty concealed stop and holder with ANSI Grade 1 compliance, both worth considering where the door also takes abuse rather than only tampering. If the concern is the fastener head itself, the Torx option on the 5 Series is the direct answer.
18) What finishes does the Norton Rixson 5 Series Checkmate come in for matching existing hardware?
Eight finishes: 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 652 satin chromium, 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 696 satin brass painted, BSP black suede powder and WSP white suede powder. On a concealed stop only the channel edge and the fasteners show, so most buyers standardizing a building match 689 or 690 to the closers and hinges already on the openings.
19) Is 110 degrees enough opening for a corridor or classroom door?
For most interior openings, yes. 110 degrees clears the door out of the traffic path on a standard corridor or classroom door, and it is the maximum the 5 Series Checkmate templates to. Where it falls short is a door that has to lay back flat against an adjacent wall, or an opening where a cart needs the full swing. Check the wall condition behind the door leaf before committing, because the angle is set at install and cannot be changed afterward.
