Stanley Security QDC119 M 689 LH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I swap an LCN 4040 for the Stanley QDC119 closer 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 straight off-and-on exchange with no new drilling. That is the main reason this closer gets specified on retrofit work in schools and other institutional buildings where the existing doors are already prepped for 4040s.
2) What door widths will the QDC119 closer handle on exterior openings?
The QDC119 covers 32 to 48 inch doors on exterior openings and 30 to 48 inch doors on interior openings. Spring power is adjustable across sizes 1 through 6, which is what lets one closer body cover that whole width range. A wider or heavier exterior door needs the higher end of that size range to overcome wind and stack pressure.
3) Do I need to know the door handing to order a Stanley QDC119 door closer?
The QDC100 closer body itself is non-handed and universal mount, so the same unit works left or right. Handing is still selected when ordering because the QDC116 arms are handed, as are the metal covers. Pick the hand that matches the opening and the arm and cover come correct.
4) Is the QDC119 door closer fire rated and ADA compliant?
The QDC119 is listed to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 and ANSI A117.1, is UL/cUL listed, and carries UL10c and UL10b fire door listings. A117.1 is the accessibility standard, so it is the one your inspector looks for on barrier free openings. Barrier Free is also offered as a selectable option when ordering.
5) I have a light traffic interior office door. Is there a lighter alternative to the Stanley QDC119?
The QDC119 is built heavy duty 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 from the DC300 Series is Grade 1 light duty, and the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light duty light commercial surface closer. Each trades the heavy duty spring range for a smaller body suited to low traffic doors.
6) What is the closest heavy duty Grade 1 equivalent to the Stanley QDC119 closer from another brand?
The QDC119 is a Grade 1, heavy duty surface mounted closer with adjustable spring size 1 to 6. The closest peers on the same footing are the Sargent 281 Powerglide cast iron surface closer, which is Grade 1 heavy duty, the BEST EHD9000 Series extra heavy duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 to 6, and the Falcon SC71A Series heavy duty surface closer, also Grade 1. All three land in the same heavy duty Grade 1 band for institutional and industrial openings.
7) Which cast iron door closer is comparable to the Stanley QDC119 if I want the same body material?
The QDC119 uses a cast iron body with a cold-forged pinion shaft and forged steel arms. For the same cast iron construction, the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron surface closer in heavy duty Grade 1, and the LCN 1261 is a surface mounted closer with cast iron construction in adjustable spring sizes 1 to 5, rated light to medium duty. The LCN 1261 covers a lighter spring range than the QDC119's size 1 to 6.
8) The QDC119 uses an extra duty arm with a spring stop. What should I look at if my opening needs a hold open arm instead?
The QDC119 arm carries a spring stop rather than a hold open function. For a hold open arm, the Accentra 51 Series industrial closer offers a tri-packed hold open arm with size 1 to 6 adjustment, and the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open model uses a tri-packed hold open arm with a parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note that hold open arms are generally not used on fire rated openings, so confirm the door's rating before specifying one.
9) My spec calls for a slide track or concealed-look arm. Does the Stanley QDC119 suit that, and what does?
No. The QDC119 uses an exposed extra duty arm with a spring stop, mounted pull side or push side. For a track arm, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm standard for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting in adjustable sizes 1 to 6. Track arms reduce the projection of the arm from the door face.
10) Is the Cal-Royal 400 Series a valid substitute for the Stanley QDC119?
Not where a Grade 1 closer is specified. The QDC119 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, while the Cal-Royal 400 Series commercial hydraulic closer is Grade 2. If you want a Cal-Royal within the same grade, the 500S is a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, the 700S is a Grade 1 dual valve sized closer with an adjustable tube arm, and the N900PBF is a Grade 1 barrier free hydraulic surface closer.
11) I need a barrier free ADA closer for an accessible entrance. How does the Stanley QDC119 compare to dedicated ADA models?
The QDC119 can be ordered with a Barrier Free option and is listed to ANSI A117.1, the accessibility standard. Comparable dedicated ADA models include the Calibre CA9901, a Grade 1 tri-pack arm ADA surface closer in size 2 to 5, the Calibre CA4001 Grade 1 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer, and the Imperial USA TC4300 Series, a heavy duty size 1 to 6 ADA closer. The TC4300 matches the QDC119's size 1 to 6 range and heavy duty level.
12) I am replacing an LCN 4040 on an existing door. Does the Stanley QDC119 drop in, and what else in the LCN family is close?
The QDC100 body the QDC119 is built on shares the same footprint, bolt pattern and rounded cover as the LCN 4040, so it goes on without re-prepping the door. Within LCN itself, the 1460T is a heavy duty Grade 1 commercial surface closer in a powder coat finish, and the 1450 is a medium duty cast aluminum closer with spring sizes 1 to 6. The 1460T is the closer match to the QDC119's heavy duty level.
13) I want delayed action for an accessible door. Does the Stanley QDC119 offer it and what else does?
Yes, the QDC100 platform behind the QDC119 offers delayed action along with a back check valve as standard, in Grade 1. For delayed action from another brand, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BHDC2011DA is a delayed action model with the same arm arrangement and door thickness. Delayed action gives slower moving occupants more time to clear the opening.
14) What does the spring stop arm on the QDC119 actually do for me?
The extra duty arm with spring stop builds the stop into the closer arm, so the door is held from over-swinging without a separate floor or wall stop. On a heavy institutional opening where there is no wall behind the door to mount a bumper, that spring stop is what keeps the door and the closer from getting torn up. A back check valve is standard on the QDC100 as well, which slows the door before it reaches that stop.
15) Can the QDC119 be mounted on the push side of the door?
Yes, it mounts pull side or push side. The QDC100 body is universal mount, so one unit covers regular arm, parallel arm and top jamb applications depending on how you set it up. That is what makes it practical for a property manager to stock a single closer for a building with mixed door swings.
16) Is a cast iron door closer worth it over an aluminum body one?
For heavy traffic, yes. The QDC100 uses a cast iron body with a cold-forged pinion shaft and forged steel arms, and staked valves so the adjustment screws cannot be backed out far enough to leak oil. It is filled with all-weather fluid, so closing speed stays consistent through temperature swings on exterior doors. Aluminum-body closers like the Falcon SC81A are rated medium duty and are a lighter-traffic choice. If you want another cast iron heavy duty option, the Sargent 281 Powerglide is cast iron and Grade 1.
17) What else could I use instead of the QDC119 for a heavy duty Grade 1 opening?
Comparable heavy duty Grade 1 surface closers include the BEST EHD9000 Series and HD8000 Series, the Falcon SC71A, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide, and the LCN 1460T. If your opening is lighter traffic and does not need extra duty, the BEST HD7000 and the Sargent 1131 are medium duty Grade 1. What the QDC119 brings that those do not is the LCN 4040 footprint match, so it is the pick when you are replacing existing 4040s rather than starting fresh.
18) Does the QDC100 closer offer delayed action for accessible openings?
Delayed action is available as a premium performance option on the QDC100 Series, along with a back check valve that comes standard. Delayed action holds the door open longer before it begins to close, which is what you want on entries used by wheelchair users or carts. If you need delayed action from a different brand, the Orca BHDC1958DA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket.
19) What is a medium duty step down from the Stanley QDC119 for a moderate traffic interior corridor?
If the opening does not warrant the QDC119's heavy duty cast iron build, the Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 medium duty adjustable surface closer for medium traffic commercial work, the BEST HD7000 Series is Grade 1 medium duty with adjustable spring power and backcheck control, and the Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1 to 6 spring. The 8501A holds the same 1 to 6 spring range as the QDC119 in a medium duty body.
20) Which alternatives to the Stanley QDC119 also come with a full cover rather than exposed?
The QDC119 ships with a full-size cover, offered in 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze and 696 satin brass. Peers that also include a cover are the Dexter DCH1000 Series Grade 1 tri mount closer with full cover and the Design Hardware 316 Series closer supplied with cover, rated medium to heavy duty. By contrast, the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 are supplied less cover, so plan on an exposed body with those.
21) I am standardizing a facility and need a heavy duty closer I can buy in one number for every door. What competes with the Stanley QDC119 there?
The QDC119 is a heavy duty Grade 1 closer with adjustable spring size 1 to 6, covering interior doors 30 to 48 inches and exterior doors 32 to 48 inches from one model. Peers that cover a broad heavy duty range from a single number include the BEST EHD9000 Series with adjustable spring sizes 1 to 6, the Sargent 1431 Powerglide heavy duty closer with adjustable spring power, and the Design Hardware 416 Series heavy duty closer.
22) Does the Stanley QDC119 work on an aluminum storefront door, or is there a better choice?
The QDC119 is a surface mounted commercial closer for doors 32 to 48 inches wide on exterior openings and mounts pull side or push side. For aluminum storefront specifically, the Norton Rixson 1600BC Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty aluminum storefront closer with tri-style mounting, which is purpose-built for narrow aluminum stile doors. Confirm the stile width and any drop plate needed before ordering either.
23) I need a UL10C fire rated closer. Which alternatives to the Stanley QDC119 hold a Grade 1 rating for fire doors?
The QDC119 is UL and cUL listed to UL10c and UL10b and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.4, which covers fire door use with a non-hold-open arm. Among heavy duty Grade 1 peers, the Sargent 281 Powerglide cast iron closer, the Falcon SC71A Series and the BEST HD8000 Series all carry Grade 1 heavy duty ratings. Verify the specific fire label and arm function with the door's rating before ordering.
24) What is the difference between the Stanley QDC119 and the Falcon SC91A for a back-of-house door?
The QDC119 is an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 heavy duty closer with cast iron body and spring size 1 to 6, built for institutional and industrial traffic. The Falcon SC91A Series is a Grade 3 light duty cast aluminum surface closer. If the opening sees real traffic or is on a fire rated assembly, the grade difference matters; for a low use back-of-house door the lighter body may be enough.
25) What finishes does the Stanley QDC119 closer come in?
Three: 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze and 696 satin brass. 689 is the default on most commercial jobs and is the one to pick if you are matching existing closers in a building. All three are offered in both left and right hand and with or without the Barrier Free option.
26) The Arrow DCN500DP drop plate came up in a search for the Stanley QDC119. Is it a substitute?
No. The Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500, a mounting accessory rather than a closer. The QDC119 is a complete Grade 1 heavy duty surface mounted closer with an extra duty arm and spring stop. A drop plate is only relevant when the frame stop or head condition does not give enough flat surface for the closer body or shoe.
