Accentra 1101BF 690 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra 1101BF door closer work on a left-hand door, or do I need to specify handing?
No handing to specify. The 1101BF is non-handed, so the same closer goes on a left- or right-hand door. It ships tri-packed, meaning the arm and brackets for regular (pull side), parallel (push side), and top jamb mounting are all in the carton. You pick the mounting when you install it, not when you order it. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one part number covers every opening regardless of swing.
2) What size spring do I need to order for a 36 inch interior office door with the Accentra 1101BF?
You don't order a size. The 1101BF has adjustable spring power across sizes 1 through 4, so one closer covers narrow interior doors up through wider exterior openings and you dial the power in at install. That is what makes it work for ADA reduced opening force on an interior door and still pull a heavier exterior door shut. If the opening genuinely needs more than a size 4, the fixed-size 1104BC is a size 4 only, so you would step up to a closer with a higher spring range instead.
3) Do I need a separate door stop with the Accentra 1101BF closer?
Yes, and this catches people out. An auxiliary door stop is required with the 1101BF. The closer has an adjustable backcheck valve that cushions the door near the end of the swing, but backcheck is not a stop, and relying on it to arrest the door will damage the closer and the frame. Budget a floor or wall stop, or an overhead stop, on every opening you hang one of these on.
4) Will the Accentra 1101BF mount on a 1-3/4 inch door, and does it come with the through bolts?
Sleeve nuts for 1-3/4 inch doors are included with all models, so a standard commercial door is covered out of the box. That is the normal thickness for a commercial opening. Anything thinner or thicker and you would source the fasteners to suit.
5) Is the Accentra 1101BF heavy duty enough for a high traffic entrance, or should I go to a bigger closer?
The 1101BF is an aluminum-bodied Grade 1 closer with full rack and pinion, topping out at spring size 4. That covers most interior commercial doors and moderate exterior openings. For a main entrance getting constant abuse, or a wide or heavy exterior leaf that needs more than a size 4, step up: the BEST EHD9000 Series is extra heavy duty Grade 1 with adjustable sizes 1 through 6, the BEST HD8000 Series is heavy duty Grade 1, and the Sargent 1431 Powerglide is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer. The Falcon SC71A Series is another heavy duty Grade 1 option.
6) I need a door that stays open briefly for carts and wheelchairs. Is the Accentra 1101BF the right closer?
Not quite. The 1101BF adjusts closing speed, latch speed, and backcheck, but it has no delayed action valve, so it starts closing the moment you let go. For a healthcare corridor or a door people push carts through, you want delayed action, which holds the door near full open for a few seconds before the sweep begins. The Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA and BHDC2011DA/PA are delayed action closers with a regular arm and parallel bracket, both for 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) Can I substitute a Cal-Royal 400 Series closer for the Accentra 1101BF on a fire rated door?
Not on the same basis. The Accentra 1101BF is UL/cUL listed for fire rated doors and certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a commercial hydraulic closer certified to Grade 2, a different certification level. If you need a Cal-Royal at the same grade, the Cal-Royal 500S is a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, the Cal-Royal 700S is a Grade 1 dual valve sized closer with an adjustable tube arm, and the Cal-Royal N900PBF is a Grade 1 barrier free surface hydraulic closer.
8) What door closer should I use when spring size 4 is not enough for a wide or heavy exterior door?
The Accentra 1101BF tops out at spring size 4. For a wider or heavier leaf, step to a closer with a higher spring range: the Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 surface closer with the same regular/parallel tri-pack arm but adjustable spring size 1 to 6, and the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 to 6. The Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1 to 6 spring, and the Imperial USA TC4300 Series is a heavy-duty size 1 to 6 ADA closer.
9) What is the closest equivalent to the Accentra 1101BF from another brand?
The Accentra 1101BF is a surface mounted door closer with a tri-packed non-hold open arm and adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4. The Arrow DCN314 is the nearest match in the same configuration: a Grade 1 surface door closer with a regular/parallel arm tri-pack and adjustable spring size 1 to 4, supplied less cover. The Dexter DCH4000 is also a Grade 1 surface closer with tri-mount capability for regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting, and the Dexter DCH1000 is the same tri-mount Grade 1 closer supplied with a full cover, which lines up with the 1101BF when you order it with the cover.
10) Is there a hold open version or an alternative to the 1101BF for a door that needs to stay propped?
The Accentra 1101BF is a non-hold open closer. The Accentra 1111BF is the hold open counterpart and carries the same adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4. From another brand, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open door closer with a tri-packed hold open arm and a parallel bracket for doors 1-3/4 inch thick. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm closer for top jamb mounting.
11) The Accentra 1101BF requires an auxiliary door stop. What closer can I use instead where there is no room for a wall or floor stop?
The Accentra 1101BF has an adjustable backcheck valve but still calls for an auxiliary door stop. Where a separate stop is not practical, a track arm closer is the usual answer: the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm as standard for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting with an adjustable size 1 to 6 spring. Confirm the stop function with the arm you order.
12) What should I use instead of the Accentra 1101BF if the opening needs delayed action?
The Accentra 1101BF offers adjustable closing speed, latching speed, and backcheck valves, but not a delayed action function. For openings where traffic needs extra time to clear, such as healthcare corridors, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket, a tri-packed non-hold open arm function, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Orca Hardware BHDC2011DA/PA is the same delayed action configuration in the BHDC2011 series.
13) What's the difference between the Accentra 1101BF and 1111BF door closers?
Function of the arm. The 1101BF is non-hold open, the 1111BF is hold open. Both are adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4 and otherwise the same closer. Use the non-hold-open 1101BF anywhere the door must self-close, including fire rated openings and anything on an access control or smoke separation. Use hold open only where code lets the door stand open, like a loading corridor or a stockroom.
14) Can I slow down a door that slams with the Accentra 1101BF?
Yes, and there are two separate valves for it. The 1101BF has an independent closing speed valve for the main sweep and a latching speed valve for the last few inches, plus an adjustable backcheck valve for the opening swing. So a door that slams gets the latch speed backed off without making the whole sweep sluggish, and a door in a windy vestibule gets backcheck dialed in to stop it flying open into the wall.
15) Should I buy the Accentra 1101BF with or without the cover?
Both exist, and the choice is cosmetic plus access. The 1101BF is offered with or without a cover. The full cover hides the aluminum body and valve screws, which is what you want in a lobby, a tenant suite, or anywhere a client sees the door. Less-cover is common in back-of-house, warehouse, and mechanical areas, and it leaves the speed valves out in the open for adjustment without pulling a shroud off. Arrow's DCN314 is a less-cover tri-pack with the same adjustable 1 to 4 spring range if you want a comparison on that side.
16) Which mounting should I use for the Accentra 1101BF, regular arm or parallel arm?
All three come in the box, so it is a job-site call. Regular arm mounts the closer on the pull side of the door and gives the most efficient power, but the arm projects into the opening. Parallel arm puts the closer on the push side with the arm tucked against the frame, which is the usual pick for corridors, exterior doors where you want the closer inside, and anywhere the projecting arm would get hit. Top jamb mounts the body on the frame face, which is what you use when the door face has no room for it, like a narrow-stile aluminum storefront leaf. The 1101BF is tri-packed for all three.
17) Which closers are alternatives to the Accentra 1101BF for high-traffic or abusive openings?
The Accentra 1101BF is an aluminum body closer with full rack and pinion operation, rated ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. Where the opening sees harder use, heavy-duty peers include the Sargent 1431 Powerglide heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer, the Sargent 281 Powerglide with cast iron construction, the Falcon SC71A heavy-duty Grade 1 surface-mount closer, and the BEST HD8000 Series heavy-duty Grade 1 closer. The LCN 1460T is a heavy-duty surface closer in a powder coat finish, and the Design Hardware 116 Series is a heavy-duty closer that shares the tri-packed non-hold open arm function.
18) Is there a lighter duty closer than the Accentra 1101BF for an interior office or apartment door?
The Accentra 1101BF is a Grade 1 commercial closer. For lighter interior openings, the BEST SL6000 Series is a light duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a light duty Grade 1 light commercial surface closer with an adjustable spring, and the Arrow DC314 is a light duty Grade 1 surface closer. The Falcon SC91A is a light duty cast aluminum closer certified to Grade 3, so confirm your specification allows a Grade 3 device before substituting it.
19) Which alternatives to the Accentra 1101BF also carry a Grade 1 flat arm for a narrow parallel arm application?
The Accentra 1101BF ships tri-packed with a standard arm for regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting. If the opening calls for a flat arm instead, the Dormakaba 8616 AF86P FC SNB1 689 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty closer with a flat arm non-hold open, tri-pack function, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy-duty closer with a flat non-hold open arm. Both are non-hold open like the 1101BF.
20) I searched for a Stanley closer part and found the Stanley 327 and 341. Are those substitutes for the Accentra 1101BF?
No. The Accentra 1101BF is a surface mounted door closer. The Stanley Security 327 is a heavy wardrobe pivot for doors 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch up to 150 pounds, and the Stanley Security 341 is a wardrobe pivot for flush recessed or overlay doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch. Pivots hang and swing the door, they do not close it. The Stanley part that does control closing is the A45-501HL long hold open arm closer for top jamb mounting. Likewise the Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate for the DCN500, a mounting accessory rather than a closer.
21) What are the medium duty Grade 1 alternatives to the Accentra 1101BF for a standard commercial interior opening?
The Accentra 1101BF is a Grade 1 aluminum closer for commercial use. Medium duty Grade 1 peers include the Sargent 1131 for medium-traffic commercial applications, the Sargent 1331 with a universal aluminum body, the Falcon SC81A cast aluminum closer, the Norton Rixson 1601P with tri-mount design and 180 degree swing, the Dormakaba 7414 in size 1 to 4, and the BEST HD7000 Series with adjustable spring power and backcheck control. The 7414 matches the 1101BF spring range of 1 through 4, and the 1601P matches the tri-mount arrangement.
22) How do the Corbin Russwin DC series closers compare with the Accentra 1101BF for a 1-3/4 inch door?
The Accentra 1101BF includes sleeve nuts for 1-3/4 inch doors and mounts regular, parallel, or top jamb. The Corbin Russwin DC3200 is a Grade 1 regular arm surface closer for 1-3/4 inch doors. The DC6200 and DC8200 are Grade 1 surface closers with a double lever regular arm for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the DC5230 is the slide track version for the same door thickness. All four are specified as regular or track arm pull side devices rather than tri-packed, so confirm the arm and mounting you need when you order.
23) The Accentra 1101BF is aluminum. Which comparable closers use cast iron instead?
The Accentra 1101BF has an aluminum body with full rack and pinion operation. If your specification calls for cast iron, the LCN 1261 is a surface closer with cast iron construction and adjustable spring sizes 1 to 5, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron surface closer in a heavy-duty Grade 1 build. The LCN 1450 is cast aluminum with spring sizes 1 to 6 if you want the higher spring range without moving to iron.
24) I need an ADA compliant closer other than the Accentra 1101BF. What else is stated as ADA?
The Accentra 1101BF is ADA compliant with adjustable closing and latching speed valves. Other closers stated for ADA include the LCN 1250 Series, a light duty surface closer in sizes 1 to 5 with all-weather fluid, the Calibre CA9901 tri-pack arm ADA closer in size 2 to 5, the Calibre CA4001 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer, and the Imperial USA TC4300 heavy duty size 1 to 6 ADA closer. The Cal-Royal 500S and N900PBF are barrier free Grade 1 closers.
25) Which comparable closers share the same tri-packed non-hold open arm function as the Accentra 1101BF for standardizing across a facility?
The Accentra 1101BF carries a tri-packed non-hold open arm function. The same function is listed for the Design Hardware 116 Series, the 316 Series, and the 416 Series, and for the Orca Hardware BHDC1958RA/PA and BHDC2011DA/PA. Among Design Hardware, the 116 and 416 are heavy duty and the 316 is medium to heavy duty, so you can hold one arm function across a facility while matching duty level to each opening.
26) Is the Dormakaba 7303 a drop-in alternative to the Accentra 1101BF?
The Dormakaba 7303 is a surface-mounted Grade 1 closer in a medium duty, standard duty build with a painted finish, and it is a reasonable alternative for a standard commercial interior opening. The Accentra 1101BF differs in that it is tri-packed for regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4, so verify the 7303 arm and mounting suit the opening before swapping. Within the same brand, the Dormakaba 7414 is the Grade 1 medium duty closer in size 1 to 4, matching the 1101BF spring range.
27) What finish options does the Accentra 1101BF industrial door closer come in?
Three: 689 aluminum painted, 690 dark bronze painted, and BSP black suede powder coat. 689 is the default that matches most commercial aluminum storefront and hollow metal. 690 matches dark bronze storefront and hardware. BSP is a powder coat rather than a paint, so it holds up better on exterior and high-touch openings where a painted closer body scuffs.
28) Are the Deltana DC10, DC40, DC50 and DC70 closers interchangeable with the Accentra 1101BF?
They are not equivalents to plan a commercial job around. The Accentra 1101BF is a Grade 1 certified, UL/cUL listed non-hold open closer with tri-packed mounting and adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4 for commercial openings. The Deltana DC10, DC40, DC50 and DC70 are door closers offered as individual series without the Grade 1 and mounting configuration detail the 1101BF carries. For a like-for-like commercial replacement, stay with a tri-mount Grade 1 device such as the Dexter DCM1000 or the Design Hardware 316 Series, which shares the tri-packed non-hold open arm function.
29) What is the difference between the Accentra 1101BF and the Dexter DCL2000 or DCM1000?
All three are Grade 1 surface closers that mount regular, parallel, or top jamb. The Accentra 1101BF is the Accentra 1100 Series device with an aluminum body, adjustable spring sizes 1 through 4, and adjustable backcheck, closing, and latching valves. The Dexter DCL2000 and DCM1000 are separate Grade 1 tri-mount series, which matters when a specification names the manufacturer series rather than the function. If the drawing calls for a covered closer, the Dexter DCH1000 is the tri-mount Grade 1 model supplied with a full cover.
