1) What is the Sargent 268 Series overhead concealed door closer designed for?
The Sargent 268 Series is an overhead concealed closer designed for commercial interior doors. It mounts in the door frame header and provides controlled closing without visible hardware on the door face.
2) What door sizes and weights does the 268 Series accommodate?
Verify specific door width and weight limits with the manufacturer template. Most overhead concealed closers handle standard commercial door sizes but require proper frame preparation.
3) Can the Sargent 268 be used on both left and right hand doors?
Check the specific model for handing requirements. Some concealed closers are field reversible while others require ordering for specific handing.
4) What finishes are available for the 268 Series?
Sargent typically offers standard finishes for concealed closers. Since the closer body is hidden in the frame, finish primarily affects visible components like the arm and shoe.
5) What power size rating does the Sargent 268 provide?
Verify the power size rating with manufacturer specifications. Different models in the series may offer various power ratings to match door size and application requirements.
6) Does the 268 Series meet ADA accessibility requirements?
Check manufacturer documentation for ADA compliance. Most commercial closers can be adjusted to meet opening force requirements when properly installed and adjusted.
7) What installation template is required for the 268 Series?
Use the manufacturer-provided installation template for proper frame preparation. Concealed closers require precise mortising in the door frame header and specific door preparation.

Most Sargent closers feature adjustable closing and latch speed valves. Adjustment is typically made with hex keys through accessible ports on the closer body.
9) What accessories are available for the 268 Series?
Common accessories include different arm styles, mounting plates, and covers. Check with door hardware specifications for compatible options.
10) How does the 268 compare to surface-mounted closers?
Concealed closers provide clean aesthetics with no visible closer body. They require more complex installation but offer superior appearance for high-end commercial applications.
11) What frame conditions are needed for proper installation?
Frame must provide adequate depth and structural support for the closer body. Verify frame construction can accommodate the required mortise without compromising integrity.
12) What are the key measurements needed before ordering?
