Norton Rixson 9587-690 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Norton Rixson narrow top rail drop plate actually do on a top jamb closer install?
It gives a top jamb mounted Norton Rixson 9500 Series closer a mounting surface when the frame face or head condition is too narrow or too shallow to take the closer's own hole pattern. The plate mounts to the frame head with pre-drilled holes, and the closer body then fastens to the plate instead of directly to the frame. Nothing about the closer's operation changes, it just relocates and stabilizes the mounting point.
2) Will this drop plate work with a Norton Rixson closer other than the 9500 Series?
No. The narrow top rail drop plate is made for the Norton Rixson 9500 Series closer hole pattern and is not a universal plate. If you are mounting a different Norton Rixson closer family, order the drop plate listed for that closer family rather than adapting this one.
3) When do I need a drop plate instead of just screwing the closer to the frame?
You need one when the flat mounting area is too small for the closer's fastener pattern. On top jamb work that usually means a narrow frame face at the head, an applied stop or transom bar eating into the space, or limited headroom above the opening. If you have a full flat head face with clearance, the closer mounts direct and no plate is required. The narrow top rail version is the one for those space-constrained heads.
4) What finish does the Norton Rixson 9500 narrow top rail drop plate come in?
Dark bronze, finish code 690. That is the only finish offered, so if your closer and frame hardware are a brass or aluminum finish, the plate will not match visually. On most top jamb installs the plate sits behind the closer body and under the cover, so the mismatch is usually hidden, but worth checking on an exposed head condition.
5) Does the drop plate come with screws and the closer, or is it a bare plate?
It is the plate on its own. The closer body, arm, and any cover are ordered separately as the 9500 Series closer itself. Plan the fastener run into the frame to suit your frame material and reinforcement, and follow the closer's own installation instructions for hole layout and arm setup once the plate is on.
6) Can I use this drop plate on a regular arm pull-side install instead of top jamb?
No. This plate is cut for top jamb mounting, where the closer sits on the frame head on the stop side. Regular arm and parallel arm installs mount to the door face or the stop face and use different plates. Picking the wrong one leaves the hole pattern off and the arm geometry wrong.
7) Is this drop plate rated for commercial door traffic, or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It is built as a commercial door control accessory in high-strength corrosion resistant metal, and it is used in office buildings, schools, hospitals, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. Property managers standardizing closer hardware across a portfolio can specify the same plate at every narrow-head top jamb opening.
