Norton Rixson CLP7500T-600-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Norton Rixson 7500 Series closer handle a heavy exterior door?
The 7500 Series surface closer is rated for doors up to 250 lbs, with heavy duty construction and ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certification. That covers most full-size commercial entrance doors. Closing force, speed, backcheck, and latching are all adjustable, so you can tune it to the door's weight and any wind conditions at the opening.
2) What does the thumbturn hold open on this Norton Rixson closer actually do?
It lets you park the door open at a set angle by turning the thumbturn on the arm, then the closer takes over and closes the door normally once it's released. Handy for move-ins, deliveries, and cleaning crews on office, school, and healthcare openings. Note it is a mechanical hold open, not a fire-door hold open release device.
3) Does the CloserPlus parallel arm mount on the push side or the pull side?
Parallel arm mounting puts the closer body on the push side of the door, with the arm running parallel to the face of the door when closed. That keeps the closer tucked up against the door and out of the swing path, which is why parallel arm is the usual choice on corridors and out-swinging exterior doors. If your opening needs pull side mounting, you want a regular arm or slide track closer instead, such as the Corbin Russwin DC5230 with a pull side slide track arm.
4) Can I adjust the spring size on this closer to a different door width?
No. The 7500 Series uses a fixed size spring, so the power is set by the model you order rather than by a field adjustment. If you are standardizing across openings of different widths and want one part number that covers them all, an adjustable size 1-6 closer like the BEST EHD9000 or the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is the better fleet choice.
5) What is the closest Grade 1 heavy-duty surface closer to the Norton Rixson 7500 Series if the 7500 is not an option?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series is an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, heavy duty surface mounted closer. Comparable Grade 1 heavy duty surface closers include the BEST HD8000 Series, the BEST EHD9000 Series, the Falcon SC71A Series, and the Sargent 1431 Powerglide. All four carry Grade 1 with a heavy duty rating, so they sit in the same performance class for commercial and institutional openings.
6) I need a hold-open closer but the Norton Rixson 7500 thumbturn hold open is more closer than my interior office door needs. What else holds open?
The 7500 Series with CloserPlus parallel arm and thumbturn hold open is built for doors up to 250 lbs at a heavy duty rating. For a lighter interior opening where hold open is still wanted, the Accentra 51 Series is supplied with a tri-packed hold open arm, and the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open model also uses a tri-packed hold open arm with a parallel bracket for doors 1-3/4 inch thick. Stanley Security's A45-501HL uses a long hold open arm in a top jamb application.
7) The 7500 Series is a fixed size spring. What should I order if I want one closer that covers a range of door sizes?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series uses a fixed size spring. If you would rather stock a single adjustable unit, the BEST EHD9000 Series offers adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Arrow DCN325 is adjustable size 1-6, the Arrow DCN314 covers size 1-4, and the Accentra 1101BF adjusts across sizes 1-4. The Imperial USA TC4300 Series is a heavy duty size 1-6 unit as well.
8) My opening needs delayed action. Can I use the Norton Rixson 7500 Series?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series does not include a delay function. Where delayed closing is required, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 delayed action model and the Orca BHDC2011 delayed action model are both built as delayed action closers using a regular arm with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors.
9) The 7500 Series uses a parallel arm. What are the options if my opening calls for a slide track or top jamb mount instead?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series is supplied with the CloserPlus parallel arm. For a track arm, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 Series is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm standard for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting in sizes 1-6. If you want one body that can be mounted regular, parallel, or top jamb, the Dexter DCH4000 and DCL2000 Series are Grade 1 tri-mount closers.
10) Does this door closer have delayed action?
No. Delayed action is not a function on this 7500 Series closer. The adjustments it does give you are closing speed, latching speed, and backcheck. If you need a slow initial close for accessibility or for carts and gurneys, look at a delayed action model such as the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 delayed action closer.
11) Is a cover included with the Norton Rixson 7500 closer?
The cover is an option, not a standard inclusion, so the closer body ships exposed unless a cover is specified. On back-of-house, stairwell, and service openings most buyers skip it; on lobby and tenant-facing doors, plan on adding one if you want the finished look.
12) Does installing this closer require mortising or special door prep?
No mortising. It is a surface mounted closer that fastens to the face of the door and the frame using the manufacturer's template for hole locations, so the door leaf does not have to be machined out. You do drill mounting holes per the template, and on a hollow metal door check that blocking or reinforcement exists where the shoe lands.
13) What is the closest hold open alternative if the Norton Rixson 7500 does not suit my opening?
For another factory hold open arm closer, the Accentra 51 Series comes with a tri-packed hold open arm in sizes 1 through 6, and the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open version ships with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both give you hold open like the 7500's thumbturn, but as tri-pack units they can be mounted regular, parallel, or top jamb instead of being parallel arm only.
14) Is a Cal-Royal 400 Series closer an equivalent swap for the Norton Rixson 7500 Series?
No. The Norton Rixson 7500 Series is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, while the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer. If you are matching a Grade 1 specification, look instead at the Cal-Royal 700S Series or the Cal-Royal 500S, both Grade 1.
15) The 7500 Series cover is optional. Which comparable closers come with a cover included?
On the Norton Rixson 7500 Series the cover is an option rather than standard. Among comparable units, the Dexter DCH1000 Series is a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer supplied with a full cover, and the Design Hardware 316 Series is a medium to heavy duty closer furnished with a cover. By contrast, the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 are both supplied less cover.
16) I searched Stanley Security closers and got pivots and screws. Do any of those replace the Norton Rixson 7500?
No. The Norton Rixson 7500 Series is a surface mounted hydraulic door closer for doors up to 250 lbs. The Stanley Security 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots, and the Stanley 57-0100 is a box of 100 steel machine screws for architectural hinges. None of those control door closing. The Stanley Security A45-501HL, a long hold open arm closer for top jamb mounting, is the Stanley item in the closer family.
17) Is there a cast iron alternative to the Norton Rixson 7500 Series for a high-abuse opening?
The Norton Rixson 7500 Series uses high-strength corrosion-resistant construction in a heavy duty Grade 1 closer. If you specifically want cast iron, the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron surface closer with heavy duty construction at Grade 1, and the LCN 1261 is a cast iron closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-5 at a light to medium duty rating.
18) Will this closer hold up in a coastal or wash-down environment?
The 7500 Series is built from high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, which is why it is specified for exterior commercial entrances, industrial and warehouse buildings, and healthcare facilities. It is a commercial-rated product, not a residential one.
