Norton Rixson 7701-5-690 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Norton Rixson 7701-5 a complete door closer, or just the arm?
The 7701-5 is an arm assembly only, not a closer body. You get the parallel arm plus the 1618 soffit plate, and it mounts to a Norton Rixson closer you already have or are ordering separately. If your closer is shot and you are replacing the whole unit, this part alone will not do the job.
2) Does the Norton Rixson 7701-5 arm hold the door open?
No. The 7701-5 is the non-hold open version, so the door closes every time it is released. That is what you want on a fire rated or controlled access opening where the door has to self close. If you need the door to stand open at a set degree, this is the wrong arm and you need a hold open arm instead.
3) Will the Norton Rixson 7701-5 arm fit a closer from another manufacturer?
It is built for Norton Rixson closers. Arm-to-spindle splines and shoe geometry are manufacturer specific, so put this on a Norton Rixson body and nothing else. If the closer on the door is another brand, order that brand's parallel arm.
4) What is the 1618 soffit plate included with the Norton Rixson 7701-5 for?
Parallel arm mounting puts the shoe on the underside of the frame head rather than on the face of the door, and the 1618 soffit plate is the bracket that gives the arm shoe something to land on there. It ships with the 7701-5, so you are not sourcing the plate separately. Check that your frame soffit gives you the flat surface to mount it to before you order.
5) What finishes does the Norton Rixson 7701-5 parallel arm come in?
Two: 689 aluminum and 690 dark bronze. 689 is the painted aluminum finish that matches most stock closers on commercial openings, and 690 dark bronze is the one to pick if the rest of the hardware on that door and the closer body are already dark bronze. Match the arm to the closer you are mounting it on, not to the lever trim, or you will see the mismatch every time the door swings.
6) Should I use a parallel arm or a regular arm on a door that opens into a corridor?
Parallel arm, which is what the 7701-5 is. The arm folds back against the frame head on the stop side, so it sits tight to the door and stays clear of traffic instead of projecting out into the corridor like a regular arm does. That is the usual call in schools, hospitals and office corridors where a projecting arm gets hit, grabbed or vandalized. A regular arm mounts on the pull side and generally gives you a bit more closing power for the same closer size, so it is the better pick where the arm is out of the way anyway.
7) Is the Norton Rixson 7701-5 arm assembly rated for commercial traffic?
Yes, it is a commercial component, built in corrosion resistant metal for high traffic openings. Typical places it lands are office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail and multi-tenant residential entries. It is not a residential closer part.
