Norton Rixson 5023-90NBC-RH-605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the door weight capacity for the Norton Rixson 5020 series floor closer?
The Norton Rixson 5020 series supports doors up to 250 lbs. Verify your door weight including hardware before installation. Heavy doors may require additional structural support.
2) How does the shallow depth design benefit installation?
The shallow depth reduces floor cutting requirements compared to standard closers. This minimizes structural modifications and speeds installation. Check manufacturer template for exact depth specifications.
3) What does double-acting mean for this floor closer?
Double-acting allows the door to swing in both directions from the frame. The closer returns the door to center position automatically. Ideal for high-traffic areas requiring bi-directional access.
4) How does the backcheck feature work?
Backcheck controls door speed when opened beyond 70-80 degrees. It prevents door from slamming into walls or adjacent surfaces. This feature protects both the door and surrounding structures.
5) What door widths are compatible with the 5020 series?
Compatible with doors typically 36" to 48" wide. Verify door dimensions and weight distribution with manufacturer specifications. Wider doors may exceed weight capacity even within closer limits.
6) Can this closer be used on fire-rated doors?
Fire rating compatibility depends on specific model and local codes. Verify fire rating requirements with AHJ before installation. Check manufacturer documentation for UL listings and code compliance.
7) What finish options are available for the 5020 series?
Standard finishes include brass, bronze, and aluminum. Special finishes may be available by request. Verify finish availability and lead times when ordering for specific projects.
8) What floor preparation is required for installation?
Requires floor pocket cut to manufacturer template dimensions. Ensure adequate structural support and proper drainage. Level installation surface is critical for proper operation and door alignment.
9) How do you adjust closing speed on the 5020 series?
Closing speed adjusts via valve screws in the closer body. Turn clockwise to decrease speed, counterclockwise to increase. Make small adjustments and test operation between changes.
10) Are replacement parts available for the 5020 series?
Yes, common parts like seals, springs, and adjustment valves are available. Order parts by closer model number and serial number when possible. Stock common wear items for maintenance.
11) How does center-hung differ from offset pivot closers?
Center-hung positions the pivot point at door centerline. This provides balanced operation and equal swing in both directions. Offset pivot places pivot point toward door edge.
12) What maintenance does the 5020 series require?
Check and adjust closing speeds semi-annually. Keep floor box clean and free of debris. Inspect seals and pivot points for wear. Lubricate per manufacturer schedule using recommended fluids only.
