    Sargent 1431 OT EB – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Does the Sargent 1431T meet ADA requirements on a track application?
    The 1431T is ADA compliant in all applications except push-side track mounting. So if you order one of the push-side arms (POT, POTB, PHT, PHTB), it does not meet ADA opening force on that side. For an ADA opening with a track arm, use a pull-side track arm such as OT, OTB, HT or HTB.
    2) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a Sargent 1431T track closer?
    Yes, handing is required. The 1431T is ordered right hand or left hand, so determine door swing before you place the order. Double egress arm options (OD, ODB, HD, HDB) are the ones to use on double egress pairs.
    3) What is the difference between the hold-open and non-hold-open arms on the Sargent 1431T?
    Arm codes with an H hold the door open at a set point (HT, HTB, PHT, PHTB, HD, HDB). Codes starting O or POT are standard closing arms with no holder (OT, OTB, POT, POTB, OD, ODB). The B suffix on any of them adds an integrated bumper to stop the door at the end of travel. Pick a non-hold-open arm on any fire door opening.
    4) I need a door closer that holds open on a hollow metal door in a school corridor. Can I through-bolt the 1431T?
    Yes. Through bolting is available as the TB device option on the 1431T, sized for a 1-3/4 inch door. That is the usual call on high-traffic institutional openings where screws into the door face will not hold up. Add TB when you order; it is not included on the standard build.
    5) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Sargent 1431T track closer?
    For a slide-track opening, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is the nearest match. It is a Grade 1 surface door closer from the DC5000 series supplied with a slide track arm as standard for pull side mounting, on doors 1-3/4 inch thick. The Sargent 1431T is likewise a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer built for track type applications, with pull and push side track arms available including hold-open and integrated bumper versions. The LCN 1460T is another heavy duty track option in the 1460T series. Confirm handing before ordering the 1431T, since it is built right hand or left hand.
    6) Which heavy duty closer should I use if the opening takes a regular or parallel arm instead of a track?
    The Sargent 1431T is configured around track arms, so on an opening that needs a conventional arm look at the BEST HD8000, a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer, or the BEST EHD9000 extra heavy-duty series with adjustable spring sizes 1-6. Falcon SC71A is another Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer, and Design Hardware 116 and 416 are heavy duty closers supplied tri-packed with a non-hold-open arm. All are surface mounted like the 1431T.
    7) Is there another heavy duty Grade 1 closer with a track arm besides the Sargent 1431T?
    Yes. The Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with a jamb track arm, frame face mounted on the pull side, adjustable size 1-6. The Sargent 1431T covers both sides of the opening with pull side track arms such as OT and HT and push side track arms such as POT and PHT, and meets ADA requirements in all applications except push side track. The LCN 1460T is a further heavy duty track series.
    8) Should I use a track arm closer like the Sargent 1431T or a standard parallel arm closer?
    A track arm keeps the hardware tight to the door and frame with no projecting elbow, which is what you want where the arm could be grabbed or vandalized, or where the look matters. A conventional arm projects out from the door. The 1431T is built for track applications but also permits standard, top jamb and parallel installation, and the arm is interchangeable, so one body covers several mounting approaches. If you want a plain regular arm closer instead, the Corbin Russwin DC3200 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a regular arm.
    9) Will a Sargent 1431T hold its adjustment on an exterior door through winter and summer?
    That is the point of the Powerglide fluid in the 1431T. It runs in extreme heat and cold without needing readjustment, and it is rated for interior or exterior openings. The adjustment valves face front, so if you do need to tweak sweep or latch you are not pulling the closer off the door.
    10) Is the Sargent 1431T heavy duty enough for a high-traffic entrance?
    It is a Grade 1, heavy-duty commercial closer built for high-traffic openings. If you are comparing heavy-duty track and slide-track closers from other lines, the LCN 1460T and the Corbin Russwin DC5230 slide track arm closer are in the same class; the BEST EHD9000 is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer.
    11) Can I get delayed closing on the Sargent 1431T for an accessible or healthcare door?
    Yes. Order the DA delayed action option and the door holds back through the first part of its swing before it closes, which gives a slower user or a gurney time to clear the opening. The delay is adjustable on the closer.
    12) Can I replace just the track arm on a Sargent 1431T instead of the whole closer?
    Yes, the 1431T uses an interchangeable arm, and Sargent track arms are stocked separately: 25-OT and 25-HT pull side track arms, 25-OTB and 25-HTB with integrated bumper, and the push side equivalents 25-POT, 25-PHT, 25-POTB and 25-PHTB. Damaged arm or a change from non-hold-open to hold-open can be handled without changing the closer body.
    13) What closer should I use on a double egress pair?
    On a double egress pair, order the 1431T with a double egress arm: OD, or HD if you want hold-open, with ODB and HDB adding the bumper. Those arms are made for the opposite-swinging leaves of a double egress frame. Handing still has to be called out per leaf.
    14) Is there a lighter or simpler alternative to the Sargent 1431T for a low-traffic interior door?
    Yes. The Sargent 1431T is a heavy duty Grade 1 commercial closer, which is more closer than a low-traffic interior opening usually needs. Lighter Grade 1 options include the BEST SL6000 with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 series light commercial closer, the LCN 1250 in sizes 1-5 with all-weather fluid and ADA compliance, and the Arrow DC314. The Falcon SC91A is a light duty Grade 3 cast aluminum closer, and the Cal-Royal 400 series is a Grade 2 hydraulic closer. Note that none of these are track arm closers.
    15) I need delayed action closing but not a track arm. What are my options besides the Sargent 1431T?
    The Sargent 1431T offers a DA delayed action device option and carries a delay function, but it is arranged for track applications. For delayed action on a regular arm opening, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BHDC2011DA/PA is the same delayed action arrangement in the BHDC2011 series.
    16) Which door closers look like substitutes for the Sargent 1431T but are not?
    Two to watch. The Arrow DCN500DP1 is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500, a mounting accessory rather than a closer. The Stanley Security 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots, not door closers at all. Also be careful with the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 tri-pack closers, which are supplied less cover and are light duty, where the Sargent 1431T is a heavy duty Grade 1 unit. The Stanley A45-501HL is a long hold open arm for top jamb mounting and is not interchangeable with the 1431T track arms.
    17) If I need hold-open on a track closer, what are the choices next to the Sargent 1431T?
    The Sargent 1431T is built with hold-open track arms directly: HT and HTB on the pull side and PHT and PHTB on the push side, the B versions adding an integrated bumper. Among peers, the Accentra 51 series is supplied with a tri-packed hold open arm in sizes 1-6, and the Orca BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open closer with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, though both of those are conventional arm closers rather than track.
    18) What should I specify for a double egress pair if I am not using the Sargent 1431T?
    The Sargent 1431T handles double egress directly through its OD, ODB, HD and HDB pull side double egress arms, with the B versions adding a bumper and the H versions adding a holder. If you need a conventional tri-mount closer on the pair instead, Grade 1 medium duty options include the Norton Rixson 8501A with adjustable size 1-6 spring and the Norton Rixson 1601P tri-mount with 180 degree swing, and Dexter DCH1000 and DCH4000 are Grade 1 tri-mount surface closers. Verify the double egress geometry against the arm before ordering, since those peers are not double egress arms.
    19) For an exterior door in an extreme climate, is the Sargent 1431T the right pick or is there a comparable?
    The Sargent 1431T is specified for interior and exterior use and is stated to operate in extreme heat and cold without readjustment, and it can be ordered in weather-facing finishes such as BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. Among comparables, the LCN 1250 is built with all-weather fluid, and the Norton Rixson 1600BC series is a heavy duty Grade 1 closer intended for aluminum storefront doors with tri-style mounting if the exterior opening is a storefront rather than a track application.
    20) We standardize on medium duty closers. What is the step down from the Sargent 1431T?
    The Sargent 1431T is a heavy duty Grade 1 unit. Grade 1 medium duty peers include the BEST HD7000 with adjustable spring power and backcheck control, the Falcon SC81A cast aluminum closer, the Dormakaba 7303 series, the Dormakaba 7414 in sizes 1-4, and the Norton Rixson 8501A. The LCN 1450 is a medium duty cast aluminum closer with spring sizes 1-6. These are conventional surface closers, so if the opening truly requires a track arm the 1431T family remains the closer to spec.
    21) What finishes does the Sargent 1431T track closer come in, and can I match existing hardware?
    Eight finishes: 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, BSP black suede powder coat, WSP white suede powder coat, EN sprayed aluminum enamel, EAB sprayed brass enamel, EP sprayed bronze enamel to match satin bronze, EB sprayed bronze enamel to match dark satin bronze, and ED sprayed bronze enamel to match dark statuary bronze. The three EB/ED/EP enamels exist specifically to match bronze hardware already on your doors.
