Norton Rixson 706-N-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Norton Rixson 700 Series closer on a butt hinged door?
No. The 700 Series is a center hung closer, meaning the door pivots on a center pivot set rather than on butt hinges, and the closer arm engages a top pivot on that center line. If the opening is hung on butt hinges or offset pivots, this is the wrong closer. Center hung is the mounting the whole series is built around, and the unit ships with a bottom pivot to suit it.
2) How heavy a door will the Norton Rixson 700 Series overhead concealed closer handle?
Up to 200 lbs, single acting, at a standard duty / moderate traffic rating. That covers most interior commercial leaves and lighter exterior aluminum and hollow metal doors. A heavy solid core or oversized entrance running high cycle counts all day is past what this one is rated for, and a heavy duty concealed closer such as the Sargent 268 or 278 is the right call there.
3) What frame size do I need to conceal a Norton Rixson 700 Series closer in the header?
The header has to be deep enough to take the closer body. Minimum frame dimensions are 2 x 5-1/2 inches for metal and wood frames, and 1-3/4 x 4 inches for aluminum frames. Check the existing header before you commit, because a shallow storefront head is the usual reason a concealed closer cannot be used and a surface mounted closer has to go in instead.
4) Does the Norton Rixson 700 Series concealed closer meet ADA opening force requirements?
No. The 700 Series is listed as not ADA compliant. If the opening is on an accessible route and has to meet ADA opening force, this closer will not satisfy the inspector and you need a closer specified as ADA compliant.
5) Does the Norton Rixson 700 Series closer work on wood doors, or is it aluminum storefront only?
Both, and hollow metal too. The door application choices cover aluminum doors and frames, metal doors and frames, wood doors and frames, and wood doors in metal frames, and you pick the one matching your opening when you order. Frame depth is the real constraint, not the material: 2 x 5-1/2 inches minimum for metal and wood frames, 1-3/4 x 4 inches minimum for aluminum.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Norton Rixson 700 Series overhead concealed closer from another manufacturer?
The Dorma RTS88 Series RTS01 is the nearest match in configuration: it is an overhead concealed closer for center hung, side load applications on aluminum doors and frames. The Norton Rixson 700 Series is also center hung and single acting. One difference matters when you order: the RTS01 is non-handed, while the 700 Series is specified right hand or left hand, so confirm the swing before substituting either way. The RTS01 also covers double acting as well as single acting openings, where the 700 Series is single acting only.
7) I need a Grade 1 overhead concealed closer for the spec - what should I use instead of the Norton Rixson 700 Series?
If the drawing calls out ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, look at the Sargent 268, Sargent 269, or Sargent 278, all of which are Grade 1 overhead concealed closers, or the Dormakaba ITS9613 from the ITS96 Series, also Grade 1. The Norton Rixson 700 Series carries ANSI CO5052 and is a standard duty closer rated for moderate traffic, which is a different specification line than a Grade 1 heavy duty callout. On a project where the submittal has to show Grade 1, the Sargent or Dormakaba units answer that line directly.
8) The door needs to swing open past 105 degrees. Is the Norton Rixson 700 Series the right closer?
The 700 Series is built around 90 degree and 105 degree swing configurations. For an opening that has to travel further, the Sargent 269 is an overhead concealed closer with 180 degree opening capability. That is the difference to weigh: if a wall pocket or a wide equipment path requires the leaf to lay back well past 105 degrees, the 269 is specified for it and the 700 Series is not.
9) Is the CRL Jackson 20-101M-01 a drop-in substitute for a Norton Rixson 700 Series closer?
Treat it as a different scope of supply rather than a swap. The CRL Jackson 20-101M-01 is a regular duty overhead concealed closer body only, in brown, 105 degree non hold-open. Body only means the closer body alone. The Norton Rixson 700 Series ships as a package that includes the bottom pivot and is offered in fifteen architectural finishes including 689 Aluminum, 626 Satin Chrome, and 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze. If you are replacing a failed body in an existing CRL Jackson prep, the body-only unit is the part; if you are building the opening from scratch, the 700 Series carries the pivot with it.
10) I want the closer to hold the door open. Which of the concealed closers do that and which do not?
The Norton Rixson 700 Series is offered in automatic hold open as well as non-hold open arm function. Among the CRL Jackson concealed closer bodies, the 20-101M-01, the 20-101M-03, and the 20-101M-17 are all non hold open door closers, and the 20-101M-09 is non-hold open at 105 degree swing. If the opening needs to stand open on its own for deliveries or cleaning, order the 700 Series in the automatic hold open arm function; the CRL Jackson bodies listed will close every time.
11) I have a wood door in a metal frame. Do I need a different concealed closer than the ones sold for aluminum storefront?
Check what the closer is prepped for. The Dorma RTS01 is specified for aluminum door and frame. The Norton Rixson 700 Series is ordered by door application and covers aluminum doors and frames, metal doors and frames, wood doors and frames, and wood doors with metal frames, so a wood leaf in a hollow metal frame is a stated configuration rather than a field adaptation. Select the door application that matches the actual leaf and frame material, since the prep differs between them.
12) Should I order the hold open or non-hold open version of the Norton Rixson 700 Series closer?
Automatic hold open catches the door at the swing degree you specify (90 or 105) and holds it there, which suits receiving doors, loading areas, and rooms being moved through with carts. Non-hold open closes every time and is what you want on any door that has to stay latched, including anything the fire marshal is looking at. Both arm functions are available in the same series.
13) Do I need a separate door stop with a Norton Rixson 700 Series concealed closer?
Yes. The 700 Series is set up to work with the Norton Rixson 60131 frame stop, and an auxiliary stop should be added where the swing needs it. The closer controls the door, it is not the thing that stops it, and running a center hung door without a stop puts the whole load on the closer arm.
14) What is the difference between the Norton Rixson 700 Series and the Sargent or Dormakaba concealed closers?
The 700 Series is a standard duty, single acting, center hung concealed closer rated to 200 lbs for moderate traffic, offered in three door width sizes and fifteen finishes. Among the alternatives, the Sargent 268 is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer with a cast iron body, the Sargent 269 is Grade 1 heavy duty with 180 degree opening capability, and the Dormakaba ITS9613 is a Grade 1 concealed closer from the ITS96 Series. If the opening is high traffic or the door is heavy, those heavy duty options are the ones to look at; the 700 Series is the fit for moderate traffic openings on a center pivot.
15) Is there a cheaper concealed closer than the Norton Rixson 700 Series for a light interior door?
For a light interior opening where you only need the closer body, the CRL Jackson regular duty overhead concealed closer body is a simpler option, sold as a body only in 90 degree and 105 degree non hold open versions. Body only means no pivots or arm in the box, so you are supplying those separately. The Norton Rixson 700 Series includes the bottom pivot and gives you hold open as a choice, which is why it is the more complete package for a job where nothing is being reused.
16) What is a heavier duty alternative to the Norton Rixson 700 Series for a high traffic entrance?
The Sargent 268 is a heavy duty Grade 1 overhead concealed closer with a cast iron body, and the Sargent 278 is a heavy duty Grade 1 overhead concealed closer with an exposed arm. The Norton Rixson 700 Series is standard duty and rated for moderate traffic, which suits interior and back-of-house openings. For a main entrance cycling all day, the Sargent heavy duty units are specified to that level. Note the 278 uses an exposed arm rather than a fully concealed arm, which changes the look at the head of the opening.
17) What is the difference between the CRL Jackson 20-101M-01 and 20-101M-03 concealed closer bodies?
Both are CRL Jackson regular duty overhead concealed closer bodies in brown, both non hold open. The difference is swing: the 20-101M-01 is 105 degree and the 20-101M-03 is 90 degree. That same 90 versus 105 decision appears on the Norton Rixson 700 Series, which is ordered by swing degree. Match the number to how far the leaf can travel before it meets a wall, a return, or adjacent hardware.
18) Which CRL Jackson concealed closer lets me tune the spring power, and how does the Norton Rixson 700 Series handle sizing?
The CRL Jackson 20-101M-17 is an adjustable spring power overhead concealed closer body, 105 degree non hold open, so one body covers a range of door sizes by adjustment. The Norton Rixson 700 Series takes the opposite approach and is sized at order time in three door width options: 30 inch exterior with 36 inch interior, 36 inch exterior with 39 inch interior, and 42 inch exterior with 44 inch interior. If you are stocking one unit against several unknown openings, the adjustable body is the flexible choice; if the door widths are known from the schedule, the 700 Series is sized to them.
19) Is the Sargent 278 a concealed closer like the Norton Rixson 700 Series, or will the arm show?
The Sargent 278 is an overhead concealed closer with an exposed arm, so the closer body is concealed but the arm is visible at the head. The Norton Rixson 700 Series is a center hung overhead concealed closer with concealed mounting for minimal visual impact. On a glass front or an architectural lobby where nothing is meant to read above the door, that visible arm is the deciding detail between the two.
20) What finishes does the Norton Rixson 700 Series concealed closer come in to match the rest of my hardware?
Fifteen: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 618 bright nickel, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 flat black, 696 satin brass painted, BSP black suede powder, and WSP white suede powder. Since the body is concealed in the header, the finish only shows on the exposed pivot and cover, so match it to the pivots and rails on the rest of the opening rather than to the lockset.
21) Can the closing speed be adjusted after the Norton Rixson 700 Series closer is installed?
Yes, from the closer itself. There is an adjustable closing speed valve and an adjustable hydraulic backcheck. The backcheck is what stops someone throwing the door open into the wall or into a return, which matters on exterior openings that catch wind. Both get set during commissioning and can be re-tuned later without pulling the unit.
