Stanley Security QDC111 R 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the QDC111 replace an LCN 4040 without re-prepping the door?
Yes. The QDC100 Series shares the same footprint, bolt pattern and rounded cover as the LCN 4040, so it goes on as a direct off-and-on exchange with no new drilling. That is the main reason it gets specified on retrofit work in schools and institutional buildings where the old 4040s are being cycled out.
2) What door widths will a Stanley QDC111 closer handle?
Interior doors from 30 to 48 inches, and exterior doors from 32 to 48 inches. Spring power is field adjustable across sizes 1 through 6, so one closer covers that whole range and you set it on the door rather than ordering a fixed size.
3) Do I need to order a left-hand or right-hand QDC111?
No handing to specify. The QDC111 with the tri-pack arm is non-handed and universal mount, so the same unit works on either swing. Handing only becomes a factor on the QDC116 arms, which are handed and use metal covers.
4) Can this closer be mounted parallel arm on the push side, or is it pull side only?
The tri-pack arm covers regular, parallel and top jamb mounting, so it goes on the pull side or the push side of the opening. Mounting surfaces include wood, aluminum and hollow metal doors and frames.
5) Is the QDC111 door closer fire rated and ADA compliant?
It is UL and cUL listed to UL10c and UL10b, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4, and meets ANSI A117.1 for accessibility. That combination is what a hospital or school facility needs on a rated corridor opening.
6) What are the closest heavy duty alternatives to the Stanley QDC111 from other brands?
For heavy duty Grade 1 surface closers, the BEST EHD9000 Series and BEST HD8000 Series are both listed heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable sizes 1-6, and the Falcon SC71A and Sargent 1431 Powerglide are heavy duty Grade 1 as well. The Sargent 281 is cast iron heavy duty if the cast iron body is the reason you were looking at the Stanley. What none of those give you is the LCN 4040 footprint match, so on a straight retrofit the QDC111 is the one that avoids re-prepping the door.
7) What is the closest heavy duty Grade 1 alternative to the Stanley QDC111 with a tri-pack arm?
The QDC111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty surface closer with a tri-pack arm, adjustable size 1 to 6. Comparable heavy duty Grade 1 surface closers include the BEST EHD9000 Series with adjustable spring sizes 1 to 6, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide heavy duty surface closer with adjustable spring power, and the Falcon SC71A heavy duty surface closer. Design Hardware's 116 Series and 416 Series are heavy duty closers specified with a tri-packed non-hold open arm, which matches the QDC111 tri-pack mounting approach most directly.
8) I need a hold-open arm instead of the non-hold-open setup on a Stanley QDC111 opening. What should I look at?
The QDC111 ships with the tri-pack arm and the barrier free option; if the opening calls for a hold-open arm, the Accentra 51 Series is specified as a tri-packed hold open arm in sizes 1 to 6, and the Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO is a tri-packed hold open arm closer for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both keep the tri-pack mounting flexibility while adding hold open at the arm.
9) My spec calls for a slide track or jamb track closer. Can I use the Stanley QDC111?
No. The QDC111 is a tri-pack arm closer mounted pull side or push side on wood, aluminum or hollow metal doors and frames. If the drawing calls for track hardware, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm standard for pull side mounting, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting, adjustable size 1 to 6.
10) What barrier free / ADA closer alternatives compare with the Stanley QDC111 barrier free option?
The QDC111 is offered with a Barrier Free option in 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze and 696 satin brass, and the series is certified to ANSI A117.1. Comparable barrier free units 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, and the Imperial USA TC4300, a Grade 1 heavy duty ADA closer in sizes 1 to 6.
11) What does the Barrier Free option add on the QDC111?
Barrier Free is one of two option choices, the other being None. Barrier Free is the setup for openings that have to meet the reduced opening force rules under ANSI A117.1, which this closer is certified to. If accessibility is not a factor on the opening, order it with no option.
12) Do I have to buy fasteners separately for this closer?
No. Wood and machine screws come standard, and sex nuts plus self-reaming, self-tapping screws are standard as well, so mounting to hollow metal or through a wood door is covered out of the box.
13) Is a cast iron closer worth it over an aluminum body for a high traffic entry?
On abusive openings, yes. The QDC100 body is cast iron with a cold-forged pinion shaft and forged steel arms, and the valves are staked so a screw backed out too far will not dump oil. All-weather fluid means the sweep speed holds up through temperature swings on an exterior door. Cast aluminum bodies like the Falcon SC81A are rated medium duty by comparison.
14) Does delayed action cost extra on the QDC100, and is backcheck included?
Backcheck valve is standard on the Grade 1 QDC100 Series, and delayed action is available as a performance option. Backcheck matters on exterior doors in wind, and delayed action is what you want on an opening used by wheelchairs or carts.
15) Can I stock one QDC111 part number for a whole building's worth of doors?
That is what it is built for. Non-handed body, universal tri-pack mounting for regular, parallel or top jamb, spring power adjustable 1 through 6, and door width coverage from 30 to 48 inches interior. One SKU in one finish covers most openings in a facility, which cuts what a maintenance shop has to carry on the shelf.
16) Is there a lighter-duty closer I can use in place of the Stanley QDC111 on a low-traffic interior door?
The QDC111 is a cast iron heavy duty closer built for institutional and industrial traffic. For lighter interior openings, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Arrow DC314 is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer, and the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light commercial surface closer with adjustable spring. The LCN 1250 is a light duty closer in sizes 1 to 5 with all-weather fluid and ADA compliance.
17) The Stanley QDC111 retrofits an LCN 4040 footprint. What other cast iron closers are in the same class?
The QDC111 uses the same footprint, bolt pattern and rounded cover as the LCN 4040, so it goes on without re-prepping the door. In the same cast iron heavy duty class, the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron surface closer with heavy duty construction, and the LCN 1261 is a cast iron closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 to 5 in the light to medium duty range. The LCN 1460T is a heavy duty surface closer in a powder coat finish.
18) Are the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 tri-pack closers the same thing as the Stanley QDC111?
They mount similarly but are not equivalents. The QDC111 is a heavy duty Grade 1 cast iron closer covering sizes 1 to 6 with a full-size rounded plastic cover. The Arrow DCN314 is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer supplied less cover with a regular/parallel tri-pack arm and adjustable spring size 1 to 4, and the DCN325 is the same light duty tri-pack arrangement with adjustable spring size 1 to 6. If you need the cover and the heavier body, the Arrow units will not match.
19) We standardize a whole building on one closer. What else covers sizes 1 through 6 like the Stanley QDC111?
The QDC111 is non-handed with a universal mount design and adjusts across sizes 1 to 6, which is why it stocks well across a facility. Other size 1 to 6 adjustable closers include the BEST EHD9000 Series, the Accentra 2701 with tri-pack mounting and adjustable spring sizes 1 to 6, the Norton Rixson 8501A Grade 1 tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1 to 6 spring, and the Accentra 51 Series in sizes 1 to 6.
20) I need delayed action on this opening. The Stanley QDC111 has it - what else does?
Delayed action is available as a premium option on the QDC100 Series along with a standard back check valve. If you want a delayed action unit from another line, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca BHDC2011DA is a delayed action closer in the same regular arm with parallel bracket configuration.
21) What is the difference between the Stanley QDC111 and a storefront closer for aluminum doors?
The QDC111 mounts to wood, aluminum or hollow metal doors and frames with wood and machine screws, sex nuts and self-reaming self-tapping screws supplied. The Norton Rixson 1600 Series aluminum storefront closer is built specifically for aluminum storefront with tri-style mounting and is a Grade 1 heavy duty unit. For narrow aluminum stile openings, the storefront-specific unit is the closer match; for a mixed door fleet, the QDC111 covers all three substrates.
22) What finishes does the Stanley QDC111 come in?
Three: 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze and 696 satin brass, each with the full-size rounded plastic cover. All three are available with or without the Barrier Free option, so you can match existing closers across a building without changing the option package.
23) Is the cover on the QDC111 metal or plastic?
Full-size rounded plastic cover on the R trim, in 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze or 696 satin brass. If a metal cover is required, that comes with the QDC116 arms instead, which are also handed rather than non-handed.
