Norton Rixson 806-N-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Norton Rixson 800 Series closer work on a pair of doors that swing both ways?
That is exactly what the 800 Series is built for. It is a double acting, center hung overhead concealed closer, non-handed in operation, so the door swings and closes from both directions. Center hung means the pivot sits inboard of the door edge rather than at the jamb, and the closer body is concealed in the head frame with a bottom pivot included. If your opening is a single-direction door on butt hinges or offset pivots, this is the wrong hang type.
2) Which 800 Series size do I order for a 36 inch door?
Size is picked off door width and whether the opening is exterior or interior. The 806 covers 30 inch exterior or 36 inch interior. The 807 covers 36 inch exterior or 39 inch interior. The 808 covers 42 inch exterior or 44 inch interior. So a 36 inch door takes the 806 if it is an interior opening, and the 807 if it is exterior, because wind and stack pressure on an exterior door demand the larger spring size for the same leaf width.
3) What frame size do I need to conceal an 800 Series closer in an aluminum head?
Aluminum doors and frames need a minimum 1-3/4 inch by 4 inch head section to take the closer body. Wood doors and wood frames need a larger minimum of 2 inch by 5-1/2 inch. Metal doors and frames and wood doors in metal frames are also covered applications. If your storefront header is shallower than 4 inches, the closer will not conceal and you are looking at a floor closer or a surface mounted device instead.
4) Is the Norton Rixson 800 Series ADA compliant for opening force?
No. The 800 Series is recorded as not ADA compliant, so it should not be specified on an opening where an accessible opening force is required by the project. It carries ANSI CO5052/CO5062 and is a commercial rated closer, but if the door is on an accessible route, spec a closer that is documented as ADA compliant.
5) Do I have to specify handing on a non-handed double acting closer?
Yes, and it trips people up. The door swings both ways, but the order still requires a handing selection, right hand or left hand, along with the swing degree and the extended spindle option. Handing on a center hung double acting closer refers to the closer body orientation in the head, not to which way the door opens. Get it from the floor plan before ordering.
6) Is there a center hung overhead concealed closer for aluminum doors comparable to the Norton Rixson 800 Series?
The Dorma RTS88 Series RTS01 is an overhead concealed closer for center hung, side load applications, double or single acting, for aluminum doors and frames, and is non-handed. The Norton Rixson 800 Series is also center hung and double acting, and is offered in an aluminum doors and frames application along with metal doors and frames, wood doors and frames, and wood doors with metal frames.
7) Which overhead concealed closer carries a Grade 1 rating instead of the Norton Rixson 800 Series ANSI CO5052/CO5062?
The Norton Rixson 800 Series is built to ANSI CO5052/CO5062. Where a specification calls out Grade 1, the Dormakaba ITS9613 concealed overhead closer in the ITS96 Series is Grade 1, and the Sargent 268, 269 and 278 overhead concealed closers are Grade 1 as well.
8) I only need the closer body, not a full assembly with pivot. What are my options next to the Norton Rixson 800 Series?
The CRL Jackson regular duty overhead concealed door closers are sold as body only, including the 20-101M-03 at 90 degree no hold-open and the 20-101M-01 at 105 degree no hold-open. CRL Jackson also lists a heavy duty body only, the 20-101M-09 at 105 degree no hold-open, and an adjustable spring power body only, the 20-101M-17 at 105 degree no hold-open. The Norton Rixson 800 Series is supplied with the bottom pivot included.
9) I need a door that opens to 180 degrees. Will the Norton Rixson 800 Series do that?
The Norton Rixson 800 Series is ordered at a 90 degree or 105 degree swing. For a wider opening, the Sargent 269 overhead concealed closer is a heavy duty Grade 1 device with 180 degree opening capability.
10) Can I use a Norton Rixson 800 Series closer on a wood door?
Yes. Wood doors are covered in two configurations, wood door with wood frame and wood door with metal frame, alongside aluminum and hollow metal applications. The wood door and wood frame combination carries the larger frame minimum of 2 inch by 5-1/2 inch, and the door and frame both need routing and drilling to the manufacturer template for the material you are working in.
11) What is the difference between the 90 and 105 degree hold open on the Norton Rixson 800?
The number is where the door stops and stays. Choose 90 degrees where the door would otherwise swing into a wall, a rail, or adjacent traffic, and 105 degrees where you want a wider clear opening for carts, gurneys or stock. Both angles are available with the automatic hold open (A) arm or the non-hold open (N) arm, so hold open is a separate decision from the degree you pick.
12) Should I order hold open on a closer for a fire rated or smoke door?
Order the non-hold open (N) arm. A mechanical automatic hold open holds the leaf open regardless of an alarm condition, which is not what a door required to be self-closing needs. Reserve the automatic hold open (A) arm for openings where you want the door parked open during deliveries or peak traffic, such as a stockroom or a receiving corridor.
13) I only need to replace the closer guts in an existing head. Do I need a whole 800 Series unit?
The 800 Series ships as a complete closer with the bottom pivot, which is what you want on a new opening or a full pivot replacement. If the existing pivots and header prep are sound and only the closer has failed, a body only unit such as the CRL Jackson 20-101M is the narrower purchase, offered in regular duty, heavy duty, and adjustable spring power versions. The catch is that a body only swap has to match the existing head prep and spindle location, so verify the old unit before going that route.
14) Is the Sargent 278 a like-for-like swap for the Norton Rixson 800 Series?
Not as a straight swap. The Sargent 278 is an overhead concealed closer with an exposed arm, while the Norton Rixson 800 Series is a concealed center hung double acting device that includes the bottom pivot. The 278 is heavy duty and Grade 1; the 800 Series is standard duty for moderate traffic. Verify the arm and pivot prep in the door and frame before treating one as a replacement for the other.
15) Does the CRL Jackson 20-101M-01 overhead concealed closer offer hold open like the Norton Rixson 800 Series?
No. The CRL Jackson 20-101M-01 is a non hold open door closer, as are the 20-101M-03, the 20-101M-09 and the 20-101M-17, all listed as no hold-open. The Norton Rixson 800 Series is ordered with either an automatic hold open or a non-hold open arm function, so if the opening needs to stand open the 800 Series covers both cases in one series.
16) Is the Dormakaba ITS9613 a substitute for the Norton Rixson 800 Series on a center hung double acting door?
Treat them as different devices. The Dormakaba ITS9613 is a Grade 1 concealed overhead closer in the ITS96 Series. The Norton Rixson 800 Series is a center hung double acting closer supplied with a bottom pivot and offered for aluminum, metal and wood door applications. Confirm the hang type and the door and frame prep of the existing opening before substituting, since a center hung double acting installation is a different preparation.
17) Can I match an 800 Series closer to the dark bronze and black finishes on the rest of my storefront?
Fifteen finishes are offered, covering the usual architectural range: 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, plus BSP black suede powder and WSP white suede powder. For a dark bronze storefront the 690 is the standard match, and 689 aluminum matches clear anodized. Only the exposed cover and arm show, since the body is concealed in the head.
18) Can the closing speed be adjusted after the 800 Series is installed?
There is an adjustable closing speed valve on the closer, set during commissioning and reachable for later tuning. Speed and the hold open setting are both dialed in after the body, bottom pivot and mounting hardware are in and aligned, and the door is then cycled in both directions to confirm it closes and latches from each side.
19) I need a finish to match other door hardware in the building. How does the Norton Rixson 800 Series compare to the CRL Jackson concealed closer bodies?
The CRL Jackson 20-101M-01, 20-101M-03 and 20-101M-09 concealed closer bodies are brown. The Norton Rixson 800 Series is offered in a broad finish range including 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 618 bright nickel, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 693 flat black, and black or white suede powder.
