Norton Rixson 5043-90NBC-RH-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Norton Rixson 5040 floor closer work with 1/2 inch tempered glass doors?
Yes. The 5040 Series ships with top and bottom patch fittings sized for tempered glass from 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch thick, so either thickness is covered. The fittings clamp the glass, so no through-bolting to a frame is needed. Anything thinner than 3/8 inch or thicker than 1/2 inch is outside what these patches grip.
2) How heavy and how wide a glass door can the Rixson 5040 floor closer handle?
The 5040 is built for interior glass doors up to 200 lbs, with maximum door size of 3 feet 6 inches by 8 feet 0 inches. Door width is an ordering choice: 36 inch or 42 inch. If your leaf is heavier than 200 lbs or wider than 42 inches, you need a heavier full-depth floor closer instead.
3) Is a shallow depth floor closer like the Rixson 5040 the right pick for an upper floor, or do I need a full depth unit?
Shallow depth is exactly the case the 5040 is made for. On upper levels of a multi-story building you rarely have the slab depth to sink a standard cement case, and the 5040's shallow case plus Cycolac rust-proof cement box drops into a thinner pocket. On a slab-on-grade ground floor entrance, or on a door over 200 lbs, a full-depth closer is the better call.
4) Does the Rixson 5040 floor closer come in a hold open version?
Both. Arm function is an ordering choice between automatic hold open and non-hold open, and the hold open point is set by the swing degree you pick, 90 or 105 degrees. Non-hold open is the usual spec on smoke or fire separations and on doors that must self-close every time; automatic hold open suits a lobby or corridor door you want to park open during business hours.
5) Can the Rixson 5040 be used on a double acting glass door that swings both ways?
No. The 5040 is single acting, so it swings one direction only. For a door that has to push and pull both ways you need a double acting floor closer, not this one. Because it's single acting, handing matters, and left hand and right hand are separate parts.
6) Can I slow down a glass door that slams with the Rixson 5040?
Yes, and you get three independent adjustments to do it: closing speed, latch speed, and backcheck, each on its own valve. Closing speed governs the main sweep, latch speed controls the last few degrees into the stop, and backcheck catches the door on the opening swing so it doesn't get thrown into a wall. A delay function is included as well.
7) Is the Rixson 5040 center hung or offset pivot, and what does that mean for my glass door?
Center hung. The pivot point sits on the door centerline, so the leaf rotates about its own center rather than swinging off an offset point near the jamb. That's the standard arrangement for frameless tempered glass with patch fittings, and it's what lets the door clear in both directions of the opening. A special top pivot is included with the unit to match. If your existing door is set up for offset pivots, this is not a direct swap.
8) Will the Rixson 5040 finish match the rest of my storefront hardware?
Three finishes are offered: 605 bright brass, 629 bright stainless steel, and 630 satin stainless steel. 630 satin stainless is the most common match for commercial glass entrances and pairs with the usual brushed rails and pulls; 629 is the polished stainless counterpart; 605 is for brass-trimmed openings. Only the exposed patch fittings and cover plate show, the case itself is buried in the floor.
9) Is the Rixson 5040 floor closer strong enough for a busy retail or office entrance?
It's rated standard duty and built for commercial use, with a fixed size spring rather than an adjustable one. That suits interior openings, office building entrances, retail glass door systems, corporate lobbies and healthcare or school glass partitions. For a high-abuse exterior entrance taking constant wind load, look at a heavy duty floor closer instead.
10) Does a floor closer like the Rixson 5040 help with vandalism and tampering on glass doors?
That's one of the reasons floor closers get specified over overhead units. The 5040's mechanism is concealed in the floor, so there's no arm or body at head height for anyone to hang off, strike, or unscrew. Adjustment valves are reachable through the cover plate for service, and nothing about the closer breaks up the sightline of a frameless glass opening.
