Norton Rixson 9303BC-9318A-690 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size door will a Spring Size 3 Norton Rixson 9300BC closer handle?
Spring Size 3 on the 9300BC handles doors up to 250 lbs. Note the spring is a fixed size, not field adjustable across a range, so if your openings vary in width and weight you either order the matching spring size per door or go with an adjustable-power closer instead. Getting this wrong shows up as a door that will not latch or one nobody can pull open.
2) Is the spring power on the Norton Rixson 9300BC adjustable in the field?
No. The 9300BC is a fixed spring size closer, supplied here at Size 3. Closing force, backcheck and latching speed are all adjustable, but spring power is not. If you want one closer that covers a range of door sizes from stock, an adjustable-power unit is the better buy: the BEST EHD9000 Series is heavy duty with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, and the Accentra 2701 covers 1 through 6 in a tri-pack arm as well.
3) Does the Norton Rixson 9300BC closer have a hold open function?
Yes, hold open is included, so the door can be parked open and still closes automatically the rest of the time. Worth knowing before you order for a fire rated opening: hold open arms are generally not permitted on fire doors unless the hold open is tied into the alarm system. For a non-hold-open equivalent, look at the Design Hardware 116 Series or the Accentra 1101BF, both of which ship with a tri-packed non-hold open arm.
4) Is the Norton Rixson 9300BC Grade 1, and is it heavy enough for a school or hospital door?
It carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certification and is rated heavy duty for commercial use, which is the grade most institutional specs call out. One caveat for a procurement standard: the traffic rating on it is moderate traffic, so for a main entry cycling all day, a heavy duty unit built for that duty, such as the BEST HD8000 Series or the Sargent 1431 Powerglide, is the closer to price against it.
5) What heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer can replace the Norton Rixson 9300BC when I need an adjustable spring size instead of a fixed size 3?
The Norton Rixson 9300BC Series is a fixed spring size closer, so the size is set at size 3 for doors up to 250 lbs and cannot be dialed up or down in the field. If the openings vary and you want one closer to cover them, the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, and the Accentra 51 Series is offered with adjustable sizes 1-6 on a tri-packed hold open arm. Both let one body serve a range of door widths and weights, where the 9300BC is specified per opening.
6) Which other closers give me hold open like the Norton Rixson 9300BC Series?
The 9300BC Series includes a hold open feature so the door can be parked open and still close automatically when released. Comparable closers built around a hold open arm include the Accentra 51 Series, supplied as a tri-packed hold open arm, and the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open version with parallel bracket, which is also tri-packed. Be aware that many tri-pack closers are the opposite function: the Accentra 1101BF, the Accentra 2701, and the Design Hardware 116, 316 and 416 Series are all tri-packed non-hold open arms.
7) I need a delayed action closer for an accessible entrance - the 9300BC does not have one. What should I use?
The Norton Rixson 9300BC Series does not include a delay function, so it will not hold the door open longer at the start of the closing cycle. For that, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket, tri-packed non-hold open, and the Orca BHDC2011DA is the same delayed action function in the BHDC2011 body. Both are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) What are the closest heavy-duty Grade 1 alternatives to the Norton Rixson 9300BC for a commercial entrance?
Peers at the same heavy-duty Grade 1 level as the 9300BC Series include the Sargent 1431 Powerglide with adjustable spring power, the Sargent 281 Powerglide in cast iron, the BEST HD8000 Series, the Falcon SC71A heavy-duty surface closer, and the LCN 1460T in a powder coat finish. The Imperial USA TC4300 is another heavy-duty option, offered in sizes 1-6 with ADA closing force. All are surface mounted, so the opening prep is the same class of work as the 9300BC.
9) Is a Cal-Royal 400 Series closer an acceptable substitute for the Norton Rixson 9300BC on a Grade 1 spec?
No, not if the spec is written to Grade 1. The Norton Rixson 9300BC Series is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, while the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer. Within the Cal-Royal line the Grade 1 options are the 500S barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, the 700S dual valve sized closer with adjustable tube arm, and the N900PBF barrier free hydraulic closer from the 900 Series.
10) How many door closers come in the Norton Rixson 9300BC tri pack?
Three complete surface closers ship per package. That is the point of the tri pack configuration on the 9300BC Series: one order covers three openings, which is why it gets specified on multi-door jobs rather than single replacements. If you only need one closer, a tri pack leaves you with two spares.
11) Does a cover come with the Norton Rixson 9300BC door closer?
The cover is optional on the 9300BC, so it is a separate line item, not part of the closer. On visible openings in a lobby or a corridor that matters to the finished look, and it is the detail most often missed on an order. If you want a closer that includes the full cover in the base package, the Dexter DCH1000 Series is supplied with full cover.
12) Does the Norton Rixson 9300BC have delayed action closing?
No delayed action on the 9300BC. If you need the door to hold near full open for a few seconds before it starts closing, which is common at healthcare and accessible entrances where someone is passing through with a cart or a wheelchair, choose a closer that lists it. The Orca Hardware BHDC1958 and BHDC2011 delayed action models both offer that function.
13) Do I have to mortise the door to install a Norton Rixson 9300BC closer?
No mortising or door prep beyond drilling for the mounting screws. It is a surface mounted closer, so it goes on the face of the door and frame using the manufacturer's template. That makes it the practical choice for retrofitting an existing opening where you do not want to pull the door and machine it.
14) What is a regular arm closer and when should I use a parallel arm instead?
A regular arm mounts the closer on the pull side of the door with the arm projecting out from the frame, which is the most efficient setup mechanically but leaves the arm exposed. A parallel arm tucks the arm back flat against the door face on the push side, which is what you want in a corridor, a school, or anywhere the arm could be grabbed or hit. The 9300BC covered here is supplied with the regular arm. If you need one unit that mounts regular, parallel, or top jamb from the same box, the tri-mount Dexter DCH4000 or Arrow DCN325 are built that way.
15) I need to match closers already installed on other Norton Rixson doors in my building. Will this work?
If the existing units are 9300BC Series with a Size 3 spring and a regular arm, this matches on function and hardware. Where it will differ is finish, since the tri pack here is dark bronze 690, and cover, which is an optional item rather than included. Check what is on the door now for both of those before you order three of them.
16) What is a medium-duty alternative to the 9300BC for moderate traffic interior doors?
The Norton Rixson 9300BC Series is rated heavy duty for moderate traffic. If the door is lighter and a medium-duty body will serve, the Sargent 1131 and 1331 are Grade 1 medium-duty adjustable surface closers, the 1331 with a universal aluminum body, the BEST HD7000 Series is Grade 1 medium duty with adjustable spring power and backcheck, and the Falcon SC81A is a medium-duty cast aluminum Grade 1 closer. Dormakaba offers the 7303 and 7414, both Grade 1 medium duty, the 7414 in sizes 1-4.
17) Will an LCN 1250 or 1261 do the same job as the Norton Rixson 9300BC?
Not at the same duty level. The 9300BC Series is a heavy-duty closer for doors up to 250 lbs, while the LCN 1250 is a light-duty surface closer in sizes 1-5 with all-weather fluid and ADA compliance, and the LCN 1261 is light to medium duty in cast iron with adjustable sizes 1-5. Within LCN the closer match on duty is the 1460T, a heavy-duty Grade 1 commercial closer; the LCN 1450 sits between them at medium duty with spring sizes 1-6.
18) Do the Stanley Security items listed near surface closers work as a 9300BC replacement?
Mostly no. The 9300BC Series is a surface mounted door closer, and of the Stanley items only the A45-501HL is a closer arm assembly, a long hold open arm for top jamb mounting in the D-455 series. The Stanley 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots, hardware that hangs a door rather than controls its closing, and the 57-0100 is a box of 100 steel machine screws for architectural hinges. None of those three will close a door.
19) The 9300BC is offered in 690 dark bronze. What if I need a different finish approach across the building?
The Norton Rixson 9300BC Series tri pack is offered in 690 dark bronze. If the standard on your other openings is different, the Dormakaba 7303 and 7414 are supplied in a painted finish, the LCN 1460T is a powder coat finish, and the Dormakaba 8916-JT and 8616 are catalogued in 689. Match the closer finish to the balance of the door hardware rather than mixing across a single elevation.
