Orca Hardware ORC-BHDC2011DA/PA-DURO – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Orca BHDC2011 delayed action closer mount on the pull side, push side, or top jamb?
All three. The BHDC2011DA/PA ships tri-packed, so one box covers regular arm pull side mounting, parallel arm push side mounting, and top jamb push side mounting. The parallel arm bracket is included, which is the piece most closers make you buy separately. Machine and self-tapping screws plus sex nuts and bolts are in the carton as well, so a hollow metal frame or a wood door with through-bolting is covered without a second order.
2) How wide a door will this Orca closer handle, interior versus exterior?
Interior doors up to 60 inches wide and exterior doors up to 48 inches wide. Spring power is adjustable across sizes 1 through 6, so the same unit covers a narrow office door and a wide entry, and you set the size at install rather than ordering per opening. Door thickness is 1-3/4 inches, the standard commercial leaf.
3) What does the delayed action feature actually do, and when do I want it?
Delayed action holds the door near full open for a few seconds before the normal close cycle begins, so a resident with a cart, a wheelchair user, or someone carrying boxes gets through without fighting the closer. It is not a hold open arm; the BHDC2011DA/PA is a non-hold open unit, so the door always closes and latches on its own. If you need the door to stay open indefinitely until pushed shut, you need a hold open arm closer instead, such as the Accentra 51 Series.
4) Is this closer ADA compliant for a barrier-free opening?
The BHDC2011 is adjustable for barrier-free compliance, meaning you can dial the spring power and sweep down to meet the opening force limits an accessible route requires. It is BHMA Certified Grade 1 to ANSI 156.4 and UL Listed. Note that setting it light for barrier-free duty reduces the power available, so pair it with the widest door only where the opening conditions allow.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Orca BHDC2011DA if I need another Grade 1 tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1-6?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is a BHMA Certified Grade 1, ANSI 156.4, UL Listed surface closer with a tri-packed non-hold-open arm. Direct peers with the same tri-mount, size 1-6 adjustable arrangement include the Accentra 2701 of the 2700 Series, also a tri-packed non-hold-open arm, and the Norton Rixson 8501A, a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1-6 spring. The Dexter DCH1000 is another Grade 1 surface closer that mounts regular, parallel or top jamb and ships with a full cover, matching the Orca's plastic cover configuration.
6) I need a hold-open arm instead of the Orca BHDC2011DA non-hold-open. What should I order?
The Orca BHDC2011DA uses a tri-packed non-hold-open arm, so it will not stand the door open. For a hold-open function, the Accentra 51 Series is a tri-packed hold-open arm closer with size 1-6 adjustment and the same three mounting options. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is a top jamb closer supplied with a long hold-open arm as standard.
7) The Orca BHDC2011DA is rated for exterior doors up to 48 inches. What do I use on a heavier or higher-traffic exterior opening?
The Orca BHDC2011DA covers interior doors up to 60 inches wide and exterior doors up to 48 inches. For openings that call for a heavier-duty closer, the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring power, and the LCN 1460T is a heavy-duty Grade 1 commercial closer in a powder coat finish.
8) What closers look like substitutes for the Orca BHDC2011DA but will not drop into a regular or parallel arm opening?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is tri-packed for regular arm pull side, parallel arm push side, and top jamb push side mounting. Two peers that are also Grade 1 surface closers use different arm geometry: the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is supplied with a slide track arm as standard for pull side mounting, and the Dorma 8916-JT uses a jamb track arm for frame face pull side mounting. The Arrow DCN500DP is not a closer at all - it is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500. The Stanley 327 and Stanley 341 are wardrobe pivots, not closers.
9) Does this Orca closer have back-check to stop the door slamming into the wall?
Yes, back-check is adjustable on the BHDC2011. That cushions the door in the last part of the opening swing, which matters on exterior doors where wind catches the leaf. Swing capability is 180 degrees, subject to what the wall and any stops on your frame allow.
10) I need closers for a whole apartment building. Is this one sold by the case?
Yes, the BHDC2011 packs 6 per case, which suits multi-family and mixed-use work where you are doing a floor at a time. Because spring power adjusts 1 through 6 on every unit, one case covers corridor doors, stair doors, and unit entries without ordering different sizes, and the tri-pack arm means you are not stuck when one opening needs parallel mount instead of regular.
11) How does the Orca BHDC2011 compare to other Grade 1 tri-mount closers?
Among the tri-mount Grade 1 surface closers we carry, the Orca BHDC2011 is distinguished by its delayed action valve and its size 1-6 adjustment. Close equivalents on mounting flexibility include the Norton Rixson 8501A, Grade 1 tri-mount with size 1-6 spring, and the Dexter DCH1000, Grade 1 tri-mount with a full cover. If you want a size 1-4 range instead, the Accentra 1101BF is a tri-pack non-hold open unit in that band. The Design Hardware 116 and 416 Series are heavy duty tri-pack non-hold open alternatives.
12) Is there a simpler or lighter-duty alternative to the Orca BHDC2011DA for a low-traffic interior door?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is a commercial Grade 1 closer with delayed action and adjustable back-check. Where a lighter closer suits the opening, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light-duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a light-duty Grade 1 light-commercial closer with adjustable spring, and the Falcon SC91A is a Grade 3 light-duty cast aluminum surface closer. The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer.
13) How does the Orca BHDC2011DA compare with the Arrow DCN325 and DCN314 tri-pack closers?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is a Grade 1 tri-packed non-hold-open closer, power adjustable size 1-6, with a full plastic cover. The Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer with regular/parallel arm tri-pack and adjustable spring size 1-6, but it is supplied less cover; the Arrow DCN314 is the same less-cover tri-pack arrangement with spring size 1-4. Both Arrow models are classed light duty.
14) If I need a barrier-free ADA closer instead of the Orca BHDC2011DA, what are the options?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is itself adjustable for barrier-free compliance. Peers specified the same way include the Cal-Royal 500S, a Grade 1 barrier-free closer with adjustable back-check, the Cal-Royal N900PBF barrier-free Grade 1 hydraulic surface closer, the Calibre CA4001 Grade 1 adjustable spring tension ADA closer, and the LCN 1250 light-duty closer with all-weather fluid described as ADA compliant.
15) The Orca BHDC2011DA has a cast aluminum body. What comparable closer has a cast iron body?
The Orca BHDC2011DA uses a heavy duty cast aluminum body under a full plastic cover. If cast iron is preferred, the LCN 1261 is a surface closer of cast iron construction with adjustable spring sizes 1-5, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a heavy-duty cast iron surface closer. For cast aluminum peers, the Falcon SC81A and Sargent 1331 both use aluminum bodies.
16) Which alternatives to the Orca BHDC2011DA are specified for the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. Peers listed for the same 1-3/4 inch thickness include the Corbin Russwin DC3200 Grade 1 regular arm surface closer, the DC6200 Grade 1 double lever regular arm pull side closer, and the DC8200 Grade 1 double lever regular arm pull side closer.
17) Which tri-packed non-hold-open closers besides the Orca BHDC2011DA are rated heavy duty?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is a tri-packed non-hold-open commercial closer, power adjustable size 1-6. Among peers with the same tri-packed non-hold-open arm function, Design Hardware 116 Series and 416 Series are rated heavy duty, and Design Hardware 316 Series is rated medium to heavy duty. The Dormakaba 8616 AF86P FC SNB1 is a heavy-duty Grade 1 tri-pack closer, though with a flat non-hold-open arm.
18) Is there an equivalent to the Orca BHDC2011DA sized only 1-4 rather than 1-6?
The Orca BHDC2011DA is power adjustable across sizes 1-6. If a narrower spring range covers the opening, the Accentra 1101BF is a tri-packed non-hold-open industrial closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-4, and the Dormakaba 7414 is a medium-duty Grade 1 closer sized 1-4. The Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 tri-pack arm ADA closer covering sizes 2-5.
19) What finishes does the Orca BHDC2011 closer come in?
Two finishes are orderable: Aluminum and Duronodic Bronze. The finish is on the full plastic cover over a cast aluminum body, so matching a run of doors is a matter of picking the cover color that goes with the existing hardware.
20) What is the body made of on the Orca BHDC2011, and will it hold up in a high-traffic entry?
Heavy duty cast aluminum body with a needle-bearing pinion arrangement, which cuts friction and keeps the close cycle smooth under repeated use. It carries BHMA Grade 1 certification to ANSI 156.4, the top commercial rating for a closer, which is what you want on a shopping center or office building entrance rather than a Grade 2 unit like the Cal-Royal 400 Series.
