Norton Rixson 2018S-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will this soffit plate work with a door closer from another brand or another Norton series?
No. The extra clearance offset soffit plate is made specifically for Norton Rixson 7500 Series closers, and the hole pattern is matched to that family. If your closer is another series or another manufacturer, order the soffit plate published for that closer instead.
2) Is the Norton Rixson 7500 Series Extra Clearance Offset Soffit Plate a push plate actuator that can trigger an automatic door operator?
No. The Norton Rixson 7500 Series Extra Clearance Offset Soffit Plate is a mounting bracket that provides additional clearance for a door closer in openings with offset frames or limited headroom, and it is designed for use with Norton Rixson 7500 Series door closers. It has no switch in it and does not signal anything. If the requirement is a wall-mounted actuator a user presses to release or open a door, that is a different class of part, such as the SDC 480 Series push plate actuators built with 18 gauge stainless steel, or the Camden CM-40 Series 4-1/2 inch round all-active switch. Those are wired devices; the soffit plate is closer mounting hardware.
3) For an ADA barrier-free entrance, do I need the Norton Rixson soffit plate or an actuator column?
They solve different halves of the opening. The Norton Rixson 7500 Series Extra Clearance Offset Soffit Plate is closer mounting hardware used where an offset frame or limited headroom will not accept a standard closer mounting, and it is compatible with Norton Rixson 7500 Series closers. The user-facing activation device is separate: the SDC 480AA Series is a 36 inch by 6 inch Ingress R.E.X touch panel column for ADA compliant access control, and the SDC BP Series square bollard posts are 6 inch by 6 inch, offered as the BPS6 surface mount at 42 inches and the BPG6 in-ground at 54 inches for exterior approaches. A barrier-free opening commonly uses both a proper closer mounting and an actuator.
4) Is the Norton Rixson soffit plate a push plate or door release button?
It is neither. Despite the name resemblance, the 7500 Series soffit plate is a closer mounting bracket with no switch, no contacts and no wiring. If you need a wall switch to trigger an automatic operator or an electric strike, that is a push plate actuator, such as the SDC 480 Series push plate actuators or the Camden CM-40 Series 4-1/2 inch round switch.
5) I need a plate for a vestibule where the closer mounting is fine but the doors need to be actuated in sequence. What should I be looking at?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series Extra Clearance Offset Soffit Plate will not help there, since it addresses closer mounting clearance on offset frames and low headroom rather than activation. For a vestibule, the SDC 480V Series vestibule push plate actuators use dual switch activation and are built for that function. If the vestibule also needs a timed hold before relocking, the Alarm Controls PD Series covers pneumatic time delay in the vandal resistant PD, PN, PS and PT push plates, and the Alarm Controls JP Series is the pneumatic time delay jumbo push plate.
6) We searched push plates and got both the Norton Rixson 7500 soffit plate and round push plates. Which one mounts on a wall for the public to press?
The round units are the wall-mounted press devices. The Locknetics PPH-100-PL is a large round push plate supplied with a box in black or aluminum, the Camden CM-40 Series is a 4-1/2 inch round all-active switch, and the Camden CM-60 Series is a 6 inch round all-active switch available wired or with a kinetic wireless transmitter. The Norton Rixson 7500 Series Extra Clearance Offset Soffit Plate mounts at the head of the frame as part of the door closer installation to gain clearance on offset frames or low headroom, and is offered in 689 aluminum finish.
7) Is this soffit plate suitable for a school or hospital opening, or is it a light duty part?
It is a commercial-grade part, built from high-strength, corrosion-resistant material for door closer installs in schools, healthcare, offices and other institutional buildings where the frame geometry does not leave enough clearance for standard closer mounting.
