Accentra YAL-4400ST 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra 4400 door closer work on a heavy exterior door, or do I need a bigger closer?
Spring power on the 4400 adjusts across sizes 1 through 6, so one closer covers everything from a light interior office door up to a wide, heavy exterior opening. Size 1 through 4 range is what most interior doors need; 5 and 6 are where you land on wide or wind-loaded exterior doors. That adjustability is also how you hold opening force down for ADA. If your opening is genuinely abusive traffic, a heavy-duty body like the BEST EHD9000 Series is the step up, but the 4400 is rated past 25 million cycles and is built for institutional use.
2) Do I have to order the Accentra 4400 closer handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 4400 is non-handed, so the same closer goes on a left or a right hand door. What you do pick is the arm and mounting: regular arm, parallel arm (PA), parallel rigid arm (PR), push side slide track (P), regular arm with pull slide track, low profile regular arm, holder/stopper arm with or without spring, or the UNI stop arm in parallel (UNI) or top jamb (UNIJ) form.
3) Can the Accentra 4400 be mounted on the frame instead of the door face?
All three mountings ship in the box. The 4400 is tri-packed for regular (pull side, door face), parallel arm (push side, door face), and top jamb (frame) mounting, so you decide at the opening rather than at the order form. Where the frame stop or an overhead condition rules out one method, you already have the other two.
4) What do I need to specify when ordering the UNI or UNIJ stop arm on a 4400 closer?
Both take a measurement from your opening. The UNI stop arm is parallel arm only and needs the door width; the UNIJ is top jamb only and needs the frame reveal. Those arms build the stop into the closer arm, so you get an integral hold-open/stop function without a separate overhead stop. Order without the measurement and the arm cannot be built to your opening.
5) Can I use the Accentra 4400 closer on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 4400 Series is UL/cUL listed for use on fire rated doors and is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified. One thing to watch on a fire door: order it without the hold open option, since a fire rated opening needs the door to self-close and latch. Hold open is a separate choice on the 4400, so specify hold open No for fire doors.
6) I need a door that stays open while carts go through, then closes on its own. Which 4400 options do that?
Two different features, and people mix them up. Hold open keeps the door parked open at the arm until someone pulls it shut, and it is a yes/no choice on the 4400. Delayed action holds the door open briefly on its own before starting to close, which is what you want for wheelchairs, carts, and gurneys in a hospital or school corridor. Delayed action is also a separate yes/no option, so you can order either, both, or neither. If you want a hard stop at the open position as well, the holder/stopper arm or the UNI stop arm handles that.
7) What is a lighter-duty alternative to an Accentra 4400 institutional closer for a low-traffic interior office door?
The Accentra 4400 Series is built for institutional traffic with a cast aluminum body rated to exceed 25 million cycles. Where the opening is a low-traffic interior door, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, and the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light duty closer with an adjustable spring for light commercial use. The Falcon SC61A is Grade 1 in a light to medium duty cast aluminum body, and the LCN 1250 Series is a light duty closer in sizes 1-5 with all-weather fluid. The Falcon SC91A is also light duty cast aluminum but is Grade 3 rather than Grade 1.
8) What is the closest Grade 1 heavy-duty equivalent to an Accentra 4400 door closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6?
The Accentra 4400 Series is a Grade 1 institutional surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. The BEST EHD9000 Series is the nearest match in the same range: extra heavy-duty, Grade 1, with adjustable spring sizes 1-6. The Norton Rixson 8501A is another Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1-6 spring, rated medium duty. The Dorma 8916-JT is Grade 1 heavy duty and adjustable size 1-6, but it is built as a jamb track closer for frame face, pull side mounting rather than a tri-packed body.
9) Which door closers besides the Accentra 4400 ship tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting?
The Accentra 4400 Series is tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting and is non-handed. Comparable tri-mount closers include the Dexter DCH4000 and DCL2000 Series, both Grade 1 surface closers packed for regular, parallel, or top jamb mounting, and the Dexter DCH1000, which is the same tri-mount arrangement with a full cover. The Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with 180 degree swing, and the Norton Rixson 8501A is Grade 1 tri-mount with an adjustable size 1-6 spring.
10) Which surface closers other than the Accentra 4400 come with a factory hold open or delayed action arm?
The Accentra 4400 Series is ordered with hold open as a yes or no option and delayed action as a yes or no option, and the arm choices include a Holder/Stopper Arm and a Holder/Stopper Arm with spring. If you want the function fixed in the model number instead, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO/PA is a hold open closer with a tri-packed hold open arm and parallel bracket, while the BHDC1958DA/PA and BHDC2011DA/PA are delayed action closers with a regular arm and parallel bracket. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is supplied with a long hold open arm for top jamb mounting.
11) What are the ADA barrier free door closer options besides the Accentra 4400?
The Accentra 4400 Series is adjustable across spring sizes 1 through 6 for ADA compliance. Other adjustable-spring closers written for the same requirement are the Cal-Royal 500S, a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check, and the Cal-Royal N900PBF from the 900 Door Closer Series, a barrier free Grade 1 hydraulic surface closer. The Calibre CA4001 is a Grade 1 adjustable spring tension ADA hydraulic closer, the Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 tri-pack arm ADA closer in sizes 2-5, and the Imperial USA TC4300 is a heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer. The LCN 1250 Series is ADA compliant in sizes 1-5.
12) Can the 4400 closer be adjusted so the door does not slam, and are the adjustments separate?
Latch speed, sweep speed, and backcheck each have their own independent valve on the 4400, so you can slow the sweep without giving up latching force, and dial in backcheck separately to stop the door being thrown into a wall on a windy entrance. The valves are staked, which keeps them from backing out and dumping fluid over time. Rack and pinion mechanism in a cast aluminum body.
13) Can I get an Accentra 4400 closer to match dark bronze or black door hardware?
Ten finishes on the 4400: 689 aluminum painted, 690 dark bronze painted, 691 light bronze painted, 693 black painted, 694 medium bronze painted, 696 satin brass painted, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, 600 primed for painting, plus BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. For matching an existing fleet of doors, 689 and 690 are the two that cover most commercial openings; the suede powder coats are the tougher film if the closer takes abuse or weather. 600 primed is there when the closer has to be painted to the building color.
14) I want a slide track closer instead of a projecting arm. Does the 4400 offer one, and what else could I use?
Yes, in two forms: P for a push (stop) side slide track, and a regular arm with pull slide track. Track arms sit tight to the door and are the usual choice where a projecting arm would get grabbed or vandalized, or where the aesthetic matters. Cross-brand, the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a slide track arm closer for pull side mounting, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting with adjustable size 1-6.
15) What door closer should I use instead of an Accentra 4400 if the specification calls out Grade 2?
The Accentra 4400 Series is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified. Where a drawing calls out Grade 2, the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic door closer. Within Cal-Royal's Grade 1 range, the 500S is a barrier free closer with adjustable back-check and the 700S is a dual valve sized closer with an adjustable tube arm.
16) Which door closers are comparable to the Accentra 4400 for a medium-traffic commercial office?
For medium traffic, the Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 adjustable surface closer intended for medium-traffic commercial applications, and the Sargent 1331 is a Grade 1 medium duty closer with a universal aluminum body. The BEST HD7000 Series is Grade 1 medium duty with adjustable spring power and backcheck control, the LCN 1450 is a medium duty cast aluminum closer with spring sizes 1-6, and the Falcon SC81A is a Grade 1 medium duty cast aluminum closer. The Accentra 4400 Series carries separate and independent latch, sweep, and backcheck intensity valves with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6.
17) Does the Arrow DCN500DP drop plate work with an Accentra 4400 door closer?
No. The Arrow DCN500DP is a parallel drop plate made for the Arrow DCN500 closer, not a closer body and not an Accentra mounting accessory. The Accentra 4400 Series is supplied tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting with self-drilling screws, so parallel arm and parallel rigid arm versions are ordered as arm options on the closer itself.
18) Are Stanley 327 and 341 pivots an alternative to an Accentra 4400 door closer?
They are not. 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 341 is a wardrobe pivot for flush recessed or overlay doors 1-1/8 inch to 1-3/8 inch. Pivots hang and swing a door; they do not control its closing. The Accentra 4400 Series is a surface mounted rack and pinion closer with independent latch, sweep, and backcheck valves that controls the door's closing speed, and it is UL/cUL listed for use on fire rated doors, which a pivot does not address.
19) If I am standardizing a building on one closer, which alternatives to the Accentra 4400 cover a full range of door weights?
The Accentra 4400 Series covers spring sizes 1 through 6 in a single non-handed body, so one model number can serve narrow interior doors and heavy exterior openings. Comparable single-model ranges include the BEST EHD9000 Series in adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the Norton Rixson 8501A with an adjustable size 1-6 spring, the LCN 1450 with spring sizes 1-6, the Imperial USA TC4300 in size 1-6, and the Arrow DCN325 with adjustable spring size 1-6. Where the range only needs to reach size 4, the Dormakaba 7414 is a Grade 1 medium duty closer in size 1-4.
20) Which closers besides the Accentra 4400 use a flat arm for parallel or frame face mounting?
The Accentra 4400 Series arm choices include a Regular Low Profile Arm, a parallel arm, and a parallel rigid arm. Where a flat arm is specified, the Dormakaba 8616 AF86P is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer supplied tri-pack with a flat non-hold open arm, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty closer with a flat non-hold open arm on a jamb track.
21) What Corbin Russwin door closer lines compare with the Accentra 4400 on a 1-3/4 inch door?
Corbin Russwin offers several Grade 1 surface closer lines rated for 1-3/4 inch doors: the DC3200 with a regular arm, and the DC6200 and DC8200, both with a double lever regular arm for pull side mounting. The DC5230 covers the same door thickness with a slide track arm as standard. The Accentra 4400 Series differs in that a single non-handed body is tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting with the arm style chosen at order.
22) Which door closers other than the Accentra 4400 are tri-packed heavy duty and sold with the cover included?
The Accentra 4400 Series is tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting. The Design Hardware 316 Series is a medium to heavy duty closer with a tri-packed non-hold open arm supplied with a cover, and the Design Hardware 116 and 416 Series are heavy duty closers with tri-packed non-hold open arms. The Dexter DCH1000 Series is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with a full cover, while the Arrow DCN314 and DCN325 tri-packs are supplied less cover.
23) Is the 4400 door closer worth it over a Grade 2 closer for an apartment building corridor?
For a corridor door that cycles all day, yes. The 4400 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 and rated past 25 million cycles, built in an ISO 9001 facility. A Grade 2 closer like the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a lower cycle class and is aimed at lighter commercial duty. On multi-tenant residential, school, and healthcare corridors the difference shows up as service calls, not on day one.
24) Does the Accentra 4400 come with mounting screws, or do I need to buy fasteners?
Self-drilling screws are included with the 4400, along with the hardware for all three mountings since it ships tri-packed. On a hollow metal door or frame that saves you drilling and tapping. What is not in the box is a drop plate or bracket for openings where the frame stop or door top rail is too shallow for the closer body, so check the top rail before you order.
