Norton Rixson 7701-11-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 7701-11 rod and shoe fit any door closer I already have?
No. It is built for Norton Rixson closers, and you need to confirm it matches the specific closer model on your door before installing. Arm assemblies are not interchangeable across closer brands or across every series within a brand, so match it to the parent device's installation instructions.
2) I need a push plate actuator to trigger an automatic door operator. Is the Norton Rixson 7701-11 what I want?
No. The 7701-11 is mechanical closer arm hardware, a rod and shoe, with no switch in it. For a wall actuator that signals an operator, look at an actuator product instead: the SDC 480 Series push plate actuator in 18 gauge stainless, the Camden CM-40 4-1/2 inch round switch or CM-60 6 inch round switch, the Locknetics PPH-100-PL large round push plate with box, or the Alarm Controls PD Series vandal resistant plates if the location gets abused.
3) Can an SDC 480 push plate actuator be used in place of the Norton Rixson 7701-11 rod and shoe assembly?
No. The Norton Rixson 7701-11 is a rod and shoe assembly, a mechanical arm component that mounts to the door or frame and connects a Norton Rixson door closer so it can control the swing. The SDC 480 Series is a push plate actuator built with 18 gauge stainless steel construction - it is a wall or jamb mounted switch a user presses to signal an automatic operator or release a lock. One is part of the closer linkage, the other is an activation device, so they are not interchangeable. If you are replacing a worn closer arm, stay with the 7701-11; if you need the button that triggers the door, look at the 480 Series.
4) I need a hands-free way to open a door for ADA access, not a closer part - what should I be looking at instead of the Norton Rixson 7701-11?
The 7701-11 rod and shoe assembly is closer linkage hardware and does nothing for hands-free activation. For an ADA access application, the SDC 480AA Series is a 36 inch by 6 inch Ingress-R.E.X touch panel column intended for ADA compliant access control, which gives a tall touch target reachable from a wheelchair. The Camden CM-40 Series is a 4-1/2 inch round all-active switch and the CM-60 Series is a 6 inch round all-active switch, the CM-60 also offered wired or with a kinetic wireless transmitter if you cannot run cable to the mounting point.
5) I need a time delay on my door release button, not a closer part. What should I be looking at?
Time delay is a feature of the actuator, not of a closer arm, so the 7701-11 will not do it. Alarm Controls builds pneumatic time delay into its plates: the JP Series jumbo push plate and the PD Series, which also covers the PN, PS and PT vandal resistant plates.
6) What are my options for a vestibule with two doors, or for mounting an actuator away from the wall?
For a vestibule where two leaves need to be triggered, the SDC 480V Series uses dual switch activation. If there is no wall to mount to, SDC BP Series square bollard posts are 6 by 6 inches, with BPS6 surface mount at 42 inches and BPG6 in-ground at 54 inches. For a full-height touch column, the SDC 480AA is a 36 by 6 inch Ingress-R.E.X panel for ADA compliant access control.
7) Can I swap the rod and shoe assembly without taking the whole closer off the door?
The assembly is sold as a service part for maintenance and upgrades, so you replace the arm hardware rather than the closer body, which keeps downtime short. Follow the installation instructions for the closer it is going on, since the shoe location on the frame or door face is set by that device.
8) For a high-abuse opening where students or patients hit the hardware, is the Norton Rixson 7701-11 the vandal resistant choice?
The 7701-11 is a rod and shoe assembly for Norton Rixson door closers, built from high-strength materials for high-traffic commercial and institutional doors, but it is closer linkage rather than a user-contact device. The part that takes the abuse in those openings is the activation switch. The Alarm Controls PD Series covers vandal resistant push plates in PD, PN, PS and PT versions with pneumatic time delay, and the JP Series is a pneumatic time delay jumbo push plate if you want a larger strike face. Specify those alongside the closer hardware rather than in place of it.
9) My opening is a vestibule with two doors - does the Norton Rixson 7701-11 handle both leaves?
No. A rod and shoe assembly serves the single closer it is mounted to, so a vestibule with two powered leaves needs a closer component at each door. For the activation side of a vestibule, the SDC 480V Series is built specifically for that function, using dual switch activation so the inner and outer doors sequence correctly. The SDC BP Series square bollard posts, 6 inch by 6 inch in a BPS6 surface mount 42 inch or BPG6 in-ground 54 inch, are the option when the actuator needs to stand away from the wall at a drive-up or open approach.
10) Is this rod and shoe assembly rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It is specified for high-traffic commercial and institutional openings, office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, retail, industrial and government buildings, and multi-tenant residential.
11) The 7701-11 comes in 689 aluminum and 690 dark bronze - what activation hardware matches those finishes?
The Norton Rixson 7701-11 rod and shoe assembly is offered in 689 aluminum and 690 dark bronze. For a coordinating actuator, the Locknetics PPH-100-PL is a large round push plate supplied with a box in black or aluminum, which pairs cleanly with a 689 aluminum closer arm. Where the door hardware is dark bronze, a darker plate reads better than a bright one, so the black version of the PPH is the closer match of the two.
