Norton Rixson 91N RH 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Norton Rixson 91 Series concealed closer handle a 250 lb entrance door?
Yes. The 91 Series overhead concealed closer is rated for door weights up to 250 lbs, and it is a heavy duty, Grade 1 unit under ANSI/BHMA A156.4. That covers most full-size commercial entrances and heavy stile-and-rail doors. It is a single acting closer, so the door has to swing one direction only; a double acting pair of doors needs a different closer.
2) Does the Norton Rixson 91 closer mount in the header or in the floor?
Header mounted. The 91 Series body sits concealed in the door frame header, not in the floor, so the frame has to be deep enough to be prepped for it and you are not cutting the slab. If your opening is already prepped for a floor closer, this is not a drop-in swap for it.
3) Is the Norton Rixson 91 Series closer handed, and which hand do I order?
Handing matters here. The 91 Series is ordered as either Left Hand or Right Hand, and it is a single acting closer, so the hand has to match the door. Stand outside the opening, on the side the door swings away from: hinges on your left is a left hand door. Order the hand that matches, because the wrong hand will not control the swing correctly.
4) Can I get the Norton Rixson 91 concealed closer with a hold open arm?
Both arm functions are offered on the 91 Series: Hold Open and Non-Hold Open. Pick hold open where you want the door to stand open for loading, moving, or ventilation. Pick non-hold open for openings where the door must return closed every time, which is what a fire-rated or smoke-partition opening requires and what most secured entries are specified with. The arm function is fixed at order, so decide before you buy.
5) Is the Norton Rixson 91 Series closer Grade 1, and will it meet a spec calling for ANSI/BHMA A156.4?
The 91 Series carries ANSI/BHMA A156.4, Grade 1, which is the door closer standard and the top grade under it. If the drawing calls for a Grade 1 concealed overhead closer to A156.4, this meets that line. It is classed heavy duty and specified for commercial use, which is what a school, hospital or municipal facility standardizing on one closer usually wants.
6) The door is double acting on center pivots. Is the Norton Rixson 91 the right closer?
No. The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a single acting closer mounted in the header. For a center hung door that swings both directions, the Dorma RTS88 Series RTS01 overhead concealed door closer is a center hung side load unit for double or single acting aluminum door and frame applications, and it is non-handed. Because the RTS01 is non-handed, handing does not have to be confirmed before ordering, while the 91 Series is ordered left hand or right hand.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Norton Rixson 91 Series overhead concealed closer from another manufacturer?
The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a heavy duty, ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 overhead concealed closer for single acting doors up to 250 lbs, mounted in the header. The Sargent 268 overhead concealed door closer is also a Grade 1, heavy duty overhead concealed closer, and uses a cast iron body. The Dormakaba ITS9613 concealed overhead closer is another Grade 1 overhead concealed unit, from the ITS96 Series. All three are header-mounted concealed closers rather than floor closers, so the frame prep differs from a center-hung pivot installation.
8) I need an overhead concealed closer that opens to 180 degrees. What should I use instead of the Norton Rixson 91?
The Sargent 269 overhead concealed door closer is built with 180 degree opening capability and is a Grade 1, heavy duty concealed closer. The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a single acting header-mounted concealed closer offered with hold open and non-hold open arm functions. Where the opening must swing a full 180 degrees against a return wall or into a vestibule, specify the 269.
9) Is a concealed overhead closer or a surface mounted closer the right choice for my commercial entrance?
Go concealed when the architect wants nothing showing on the face of the door or frame, and the frame can be prepped for it. The 91 Series buries the closer body in the header, so only the arm is visible. The trade is access: servicing or adjusting a concealed unit means getting into the header, and retrofitting one into an existing frame that was never prepped is real millwork. A surface closer is the cheaper, faster install and the easier one to adjust later. Concealed makes sense on new frames and on appearance-driven openings.
10) What are the Grade 1 alternatives to the Norton Rixson 91 concealed closer from other brands?
Sargent offers three heavy duty Grade 1 overhead concealed closers: the 268 with a cast iron body, the 269 with 180 degree opening capability, and the 278 with an exposed arm. Dormakaba's ITS9613 is also Grade 1. Pick the 269 if the door has to swing a full 180 degrees back to a wall, the 278 if you want the arm exposed for easier access, and the 268 for a straight cast iron heavy duty body.
11) I need a cheaper concealed closer for a light interior aluminum door, not a 250 lb entrance. What should I look at?
A 250 lb rated Grade 1 unit is more closer than a light interior door needs. CRL Jackson sells regular duty overhead concealed closer bodies in non hold open, available with a 90 degree stop or a 105 degree stop, plus a heavy duty 105 degree non hold open version and an adjustable spring power body at 105 degrees. Those bodies are a better match for lighter doors and for openings where the swing has to stop short at 90 or 105 degrees. Note they are body only, so the arm and any related hardware are separate.
12) Can I standardize the Norton Rixson 91 concealed closer across every door in my building?
Across single acting header-prepped openings, yes, and that is the usual case for a property standardizing a fleet of doors: one Grade 1 heavy duty closer, one finish, ordered left or right hand per opening and hold open or non-hold open per opening. Where it does not carry: double acting doors, doors set up for floor closers, and any frame that has no header prep and cannot get one. Survey the openings by hand and by frame condition before you place a fleet order, because the hand and arm function are fixed per unit.
13) I only need to replace the closer body in an existing header. Do the CRL Jackson closers work as a drop-in for a Norton Rixson 91?
They are not interchangeable parts. The CRL Jackson 20-101M-01, 20-101M-09 and 20-101M-17 are sold as closer bodies only and are cut for CRL Jackson header prep, so they replace a CRL Jackson body, not a Norton Rixson unit. The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a complete header-mounted concealed closer supplied by handing and arm function. Match the replacement body to the manufacturer of the header already in the opening.
14) Which overhead concealed closer keeps the arm out of sight, and which one exposes it?
The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a concealed closer mounted in the header, in an offset architectural grade configuration. The Sargent 278 overhead concealed door closer is a Grade 1 heavy duty unit with an exposed arm, so the arm remains visible below the header once installed. On a job where the architect is specifying a clean header line, the difference between a concealed arm and an exposed arm is the deciding detail.
15) For a facility standardizing on Grade 1 concealed closers, which options meet that requirement?
The Norton Rixson 91 Series meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4, Grade 1 at a heavy duty level for commercial openings. Among comparable overhead concealed closers, the Sargent 268, Sargent 269 and Sargent 278 are all Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Dormakaba ITS9613 is Grade 1. Standardizing across a facility on any of these holds the Grade 1 line while letting each opening take the arm and swing arrangement it needs.
16) What finishes does the Norton Rixson 91 Series overhead concealed closer come in?
Fifteen finishes across brass, bronze, nickel, chrome, painted and powder coat: 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, BSP Black Suede Powder and WSP White Suede Powder. On a concealed closer only the arm and cover show, so match those to the door pulls and frame rather than to the closer bodies elsewhere in the building.
17) Which concealed closer lets me adjust spring power in the field instead of ordering a fixed size?
The CRL Jackson 20-101M-17 is an adjustable spring power overhead concealed door closer body, non hold open, at 105 degree. It is supplied as a body only. The Norton Rixson 91 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 header-mounted closer ordered by handing, arm function and finish. Where one closer has to cover a range of leaf sizes across a building, the adjustable spring power unit reduces the number of distinct part numbers to stock.
18) Do the comparable concealed closers come in the same finish range as the Norton Rixson 91?
The Norton Rixson 91 Series is offered in a wide architectural finish range including 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 626 satin chrome, 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 693 flat black, and black and white suede powder coats. Among the comparable units, the CRL Jackson 20-101M-01, 20-101M-03 and 20-101M-09 concealed closer bodies are supplied in brown. Where the closer arm or cover is visible in the opening, the finish match to the rest of the door hardware is worth confirming before ordering.
