Sargent 1536H 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the F, S and H functions on the Sargent 1530 stop?
Three functions, and you have to name one on the order. "S" is stop only, it limits how far the door swings and nothing else. "H" is a positive hold open, the door stays put at the stop point until someone pulls it free. "F" is friction type, the arm holds the door with adjustable friction anywhere it is set rather than latching into a fixed hold position. Offices and corridors where you never want a door parked open take the stop only; storerooms, classrooms and loading areas where crews need hands free take the hold open.
2) Is the Sargent 1530 heavy enough for a high traffic entrance door?
No, and this is the most common way people buy the wrong stop. The 1530 is a medium duty, standard duty concealed stop rated ANSI A156.8 Grade 1, built for interior single acting doors in commercial and institutional buildings. Main entrances, vestibules, wind-loaded exteriors and abused doors want a heavy duty device instead: the Glynn-Johnson 100 Series or the Norton Rixson 1 Series Checkmate are heavy duty concealed units, and ABH's 1000 Series is a heavy duty concealed mount option.
3) Do I need a concealed overhead stop or will a surface mounted one do the job?
Concealed, like the Sargent 1530, mortises into the top of the door and the frame soffit, so nothing shows when the door is closed and there is no wall stop or floor stop for carts and toes to find. It costs you a door and frame prep, which is why it belongs on new work or a door you are already machining. Surface mounted stops screw onto the face of the door and the frame head with no routing, so they are the retrofit answer on an existing door: the Glynn-Johnson 70 Series with its 85 to 110 degree hold open range, the heavier 79 Series, or the Norton Rixson 10 Series Checkmate surface stop and holder.
4) Can I put a Sargent 1530 concealed stop on an exterior door or a double acting door?
No on both counts. The 1530 is built for interior single acting doors in commercial settings, so a door that swings both directions or an exterior leaf taking wind load is outside what this device is meant to control. For a double acting opening or an exterior door, go to a heavy duty overhead unit such as the Glynn-Johnson 100 Series or the Norton Rixson 1 Series Checkmate and confirm the function against that opening.
5) Is the Sargent 1530 concealed stop fire rated for a labeled door?
Treat the 1530 as a non-fire-rated stop. It is a medium duty concealed stop and holder meeting ANSI A156.8 Grade 1, and a labeled opening needs a device carrying its own fire rating. ABH's 1000 Series is the concealed mount overhead stop in our range that carries a fire rating. Also worth knowing: a hold open device on a fire door is a code problem regardless of the hardware, so on labeled openings the stop only function is the one to be looking at.
6) What is the closest heavy duty equivalent to the Sargent 1530 concealed overhead stop?
The Norton Rixson 1 Series Checkmate is the closest match when a heavier device is wanted in the same mounting style. It is a concealed door stop and holder with a 110 degree opening, the same opening angle the Sargent 1530 is built around, and it is rated Grade 1 as the 1530 is. The difference is duty level: the Norton Rixson 1 Series is classed heavy duty, while the 1530 is a medium duty device. On a high-traffic opening in a school or hospital corridor, the 1 Series is the specification-for-specification swap at a heavier duty class.
7) Is there another concealed overhead stop in the same medium duty class as the Sargent 1530?
The Glynn-Johnson 410 Series is the direct peer on duty class. It is a medium duty concealed overhead door holder and stop, matching the Sargent 1530's medium duty rating and its overhead concealed mounting. Both are cut into the door and frame rather than mounted on the face, so either keeps the wall and floor clear on an interior single acting door. If a job is already standardized on Glynn-Johnson elsewhere in the building, the 410 Series covers the same class of opening.
8) What should be used instead of the Sargent 1530 on a fire rated opening?
The ABH 1000 Series is the one to look at there. It is a heavy duty concealed mount overhead door stop carrying a fire rating, mounted the same concealed way as the Sargent 1530. The 1530 is described as a stop/holder for interior single acting doors in commercial and institutional buildings, so where a labeled opening drives the choice, the ABH 1000 Series is the concealed device that speaks to the fire rating directly.
9) The Sargent 1530 stops at 110 degrees. What concealed stop allows the opening angle to be set in the field?
Three ABH devices are built for that. The ABH 1000A Series is a heavy duty concealed mount stop and holder with field-adjustable opening control, and the ABH 1000RA and ABH 1000SA Series are heavy duty concealed mount stops and holders with adjustable opening control. The Sargent 1530 is designed around a maximum door opening of 110 degrees, so on an opening where a wall return or casework requires the door checked short of that, the adjustable ABH devices let the stop point be set rather than fixed. All four are concealed mount, so the door and frame prep concept is the same family of work.
10) What is the DORMA equivalent of a Sargent 1530 friction hold open stop?
The DORMA 711F is the counterpart in the DORMA 700 Series - a standard duty concealed friction stop covering a 21 to 27 inch door opening. The Sargent 1530 offers a friction type function among its three, alongside stop only and hold and stop, so the 711F lines up with the friction configuration specifically. On width, the 711F is a single part for 21 to 27 inch doors, while the 1530's narrowest band runs 19 to 25 inches and the series continues up through 48 inch leaves. For anything wider than 27 inches in DORMA, the 900 Series is the heavy duty stops and holders line.
11) Can I use a Sargent 1530 to hold a door open in an ADA accessible route?
Don't specify the 1530 on the basis of accessibility compliance. Our record on this stop carries it as not ADA compliant, so if the opening has to satisfy an accessibility requirement, that has to be established from the device you actually install and the rest of the opening hardware rather than assumed from the stop. What the 1530 does do is limit the swing to 110 degrees and, in the H or F functions, park the door open so hands are free.
12) What finish should I order on a Sargent 1530 to match the rest of my door hardware?
Nine finishes on the 1530. For hardware matching, 26D satin chromium plated over nickel is the standard match to satin chrome and brushed stainless trim, and 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze is the oil-rubbed bronze look. The rest are sprayed or powder coat finishes for painted openings: EAB sprayed brass enamel, EB and ED sprayed bronze enamels matching dark satin bronze and dark statuary bronze, EN sprayed aluminum enamel, EP sprayed bronze enamel matching satin bronze, plus BSP black suede and WSP white suede powder coat. On a concealed stop only the arm and shoe show when the door is open, so most facilities standardize on 26D and stop worrying about it.
13) What do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 1530 overhead stop?
Three things settle the part number: the door width band (19" to 25", 25-1/8" to 32-1/2", 32-5/8" to 40", or 40-1/8" to 48"), the function (stop only, hold and stop, or friction type), and the finish from the nine offered. Width band and function are the two that get ordered wrong. Get the width from a tape on the actual leaf and pick the function from whether that door is ever meant to stand open.
14) I need a concealed overhead stop for a 30 inch door but not the full Sargent range. What else is there?
Don-Jo's 3023 concealed overhead door stop is a standard duty unit in satin stainless steel sized for 30 inch doors, and the 3024 is the same thing for 36 inch doors, both single-size parts rather than a width band you select. Glynn-Johnson's 410 Series is the other medium duty concealed overhead holder and stop option. DORMA's 711F is a standard duty concealed friction stop covering 21 to 27 inch doors if friction hold is what you're after in that size.
15) Which overhead stops are surface mounted rather than concealed like the Sargent 1530?
The Glynn-Johnson 70 Series and 79 Series and the Norton Rixson 10 Series devices are surface mounted, and that is a different job from the Sargent 1530. The Glynn-Johnson 70 Series is a heavy duty surface overhead holder and stop with an 85 to 110 degree hold-open range, and the 79 Series is an extra heavy duty surface overhead holder and stop. Norton Rixson offers the 10 Series Checkmate surface stop and holder with an adjustable hold-open feature and the 10 Series Checkmate surface stop and holder in a medium duty class. The Sargent 1530 mounts concealed, which the description credits with eliminating the visible hardware a surface device leaves on the door and frame. Surface devices do not require the same routing into the door, so they are the usual answer on a retrofit where cutting the door is not on the table.
16) For standardizing a facility on one concealed overhead stop, how do the Sargent 1530 and Glynn-Johnson 100 Series compare?
Both are concealed overhead devices, but they sit in different duty classes. The Glynn-Johnson 100 Series is a heavy duty concealed overhead door holder and stop described as multi-function and non-handed, commercial grade. The Sargent 1530 is a medium duty concealed mount device meeting ANSI A156.8 Grade 1, offered as friction type, stop only, or hold and stop, and finished in nine options including 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 26D satin chromium plated over nickel, BSP black suede powder coat, WSP white suede powder coat, and a set of sprayed enamels. A facility choosing one line for every interior opening weighs the 100 Series non-handed multi-function approach against the 1530's finish range for matching existing hardware across the building.
17) Which Grade 1 overhead stop should be considered if a surface mounted device is acceptable?
The Norton Rixson 10 Series standard duty overhead stop with adjustable opening control is Grade 1 and mounts to the surface, with the opening control adjustable rather than fixed. The Sargent 1530 is also Grade 1 but is a concealed mount device with a 110 degree maximum opening. Where the specification calls for Grade 1 and the door cannot be routed for a concealed device, the Norton Rixson 10 Series holds the grade while changing the mounting method and the prep required.
18) What material is the Sargent 1530 door stop made of, and will it hold up in a school or hospital corridor?
Extruded bronze. That is a solid, machined section rather than a stamping, which is why it carries ANSI A156.8 Grade 1 at a medium duty rating and holds up in schools, healthcare, offices and multi-tenant residential corridors. Where it will not hold up is on abused traffic doors or anywhere a door gets thrown open hard against the stop, and that is a heavy duty application.
