Accentra TJ3111 600 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What reveal does the Accentra TJ3111 door closer cover for top jamb mounting?
The TJ3111 is set up for top jamb mounting on frames with a 2-3/4 inch to 6-3/4 inch reveal. Reveal is the distance from the face of the door to the face of the frame stop where the closer body lands. Measure that on your opening first; if it falls outside 2-3/4 to 6-3/4 inches, this arm configuration will not pull the door properly.
2) Is the Accentra TJ3111 closer handed, or does one part number cover left and right doors?
Non-handed. One TJ3111 works on either hand of door, so a property manager standardizing across a building only stocks one part number. It also ships tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb mounting, so the same unit can be redirected to a different mounting condition if the opening changes.
3) Can I adjust the closing force on the Accentra TJ3111 for a light interior door and a heavy exterior door?
Spring power is adjustable across sizes 1 through 6 on the same closer, so one unit covers a light office door up through a heavy exterior door. Latch speed, sweep speed, and backcheck intensity are separate independent valves, so you can slow the sweep without giving up latching force. The valves are staked, which keeps them from backing out of adjustment.
4) Does the Accentra TJ3111 meet ADA opening force requirements and ANSI Grade 1?
Yes on both counts. The TJ3111 is ADA compliant and ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, and it is rated to exceed 25 million cycles. For an institutional spec that calls out Grade 1 surface closers on an accessible route, that combination is what a reviewer looks for. Adjustability across spring sizes 1-6 is what lets you dial the opening force down on an accessible interior opening.
5) What does the hold open feature on the TJ3111 actually do on the job?
The TJ3111 arm holds the door open at a set position instead of returning it every time, which is what you want on a receiving door, a classroom door during passing periods, or a move-in corridor. Note that a hold open arm should not go on a door that has to self-close, such as a rated fire door assembly. For openings that need the closer but not the hold open, order a non-hold-open version of the same 3000 Series closer.
6) What is a comparable Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer to the Accentra TJ3111 if I need another brand for the same opening?
The Accentra TJ3111 is a Grade 1 tri-packed closer that mounts regular, parallel, or top jamb with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. Close counterparts include the Norton Rixson 8501A, a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with adjustable size 1-6 spring, and the Dexter DCH4000 Series, a Grade 1 surface closer that tri mounts regular, parallel, or top jamb. Both cover the same mounting flexibility, so the spec question comes down to arm type and finish.
7) For a high-abuse exterior or institutional door, is there a heavier closer than the Accentra TJ3111?
The Accentra TJ3111 is a Grade 1 cast aluminum closer rated past 25 million cycles. Where the spec calls for heavy duty, the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, the BEST HD8000 Series is heavy duty Grade 1, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a heavy duty Grade 1 closer with a cast iron body rather than aluminum.
8) My frame reveal is too deep for a top jamb closer - what should I use instead of the TJ3111?
The Accentra TJ3111 is set up for top jamb mounting at a 2-3/4 inch to 6-3/4 inch reveal. Outside that range, a track or frame-face closer is the usual answer: the Dormakaba 8916-JT is a Grade 1 jamb track closer for frame face mounting on the pull side with adjustable size 1-6 spring, and the Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm for pull side mounting on 1-3/4 inch doors.
9) I ordered a TJ3111 by mistake for an opening that cannot have a held-open door - what tri-pack alternates are non-hold-open?
The Accentra TJ3111 comes with the hold open arm. If the opening needs a self-closing arm, tri-packed non-hold-open options include the Design Hardware 116 Series and 416 Series heavy duty closers, the Design Hardware 316 Series medium to heavy duty with cover, and the Dormakaba 8616 AF86P with a flat non-hold-open arm in a tri-pack.
10) What finishes does the Accentra TJ3111 come in, and can I match existing dark bronze hardware?
Ten finishes: 600 primed for painting, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, 689 aluminum painted, 690 dark bronze painted, 691 light bronze painted, 693 black painted, 694 medium bronze painted, 696 satin brass painted, BSP black suede powder coat, and WSP white suede powder coat. For dark bronze openings, 690 is the direct match; 613E reads closer to an oxidized bronze. If you paint to a building color, take 600 primed.
11) Should I use a top jamb closer or a parallel arm closer on my door?
Top jamb puts the closer body on the frame face above the door with the arm to the door face, which is the go-to when the door face cannot take the body, such as a glass-front or full-glass entrance, or when the push side is the only accessible side. Parallel arm mounts the body on the push side of the door with the arm along the frame soffit, which keeps the arm tight to the door and out of traffic. The TJ3111 is tri-packed for regular, parallel, and top jamb, so the decision is made at installation, not at ordering. What the TJ3111 fixes at order time is the reveal range: 2-3/4 to 6-3/4 inches.
12) What is the TJ3111 closer body made of, and will it hold up in a high traffic entrance?
Cast aluminum body with a rack and pinion mechanism, rated to exceed 25 million cycles under ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. That cycle count is what carries it through school corridors, healthcare, retail entries and multi-tenant residential common doors. If your spec calls specifically for cast iron rather than aluminum, the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a cast iron heavy duty surface closer.
13) What are some Grade 1 alternatives to the Accentra TJ3111 that also adjust from size 1 to 6?
Several. The BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6. The Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with an adjustable 1-6 spring, so it covers the same mounting flexibility. The Dormakaba 8916-JT is a Grade 1 heavy duty jamb track closer adjustable 1-6 for frame face pull side mounting. The Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 tri-pack regular/parallel closer adjustable 1-6, supplied less cover.
14) I need a hold open closer but not a top jamb mount. What else works?
The Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open closer is a tri-packed hold open arm rated for 1-3/4 inch doors with a parallel bracket, which is the option when the door face takes the body. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm for top jamb applications if you specifically need the frame face mount. The Accentra TJ3111 itself is hold open and ships tri-packed, so it can be set to regular or parallel mount as well.
15) The TJ3111 is more closer than I need for a low-traffic interior door - what is a lighter option?
The Accentra TJ3111 is a Grade 1 commercial closer built to exceed 25 million cycles with spring sizes 1 through 6. For lighter interior openings, the BEST SL6000 Series is a Grade 1 light duty surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a Grade 1 light duty light commercial closer with adjustable spring, and the Falcon SC91A is a light duty Grade 3 cast aluminum closer. Duty level and grade are the two things to match to the traffic on the door.
16) Will the Arrow DCN325 work as a drop-in for the Accentra TJ3111?
They are not the same class of product even though both are tri-pack closers with spring sizes 1 through 6. The Accentra TJ3111 is a Grade 1 closer supplied with a hold open arm and a cover. The Arrow DCN325 is a light duty Grade 1 surface closer furnished less cover with a regular/parallel arm tri-pack. If you need the cover and the hold open function, the Arrow is not an equivalent without adding parts.
17) What is the difference between the Accentra TJ3111 and a Grade 2 closer like the Cal-Royal 400?
The Accentra TJ3111 carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certification and is rated to exceed 25 million cycles. The Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic closer. If your drawing or facility standard calls out Grade 1, the Cal-Royal 400 will not satisfy it; Grade 1 alternates in the Cal-Royal line include the 500S barrier free closer with adjustable back-check and the 700S dual valve sized closer with adjustable tube arm.
18) I need a closer that holds the door open on a delay rather than latching open - what is different from the TJ3111?
The Accentra TJ3111 uses a mechanical hold open arm that parks the door open until it is pushed shut. A delayed action closer instead slows the close cycle and then shuts fully: the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca BHDC2011DA/PA is the same delayed action arrangement in that series. Those two functions are not interchangeable on an opening where code prohibits a held-open door.
19) We standardize on cast aluminum closers - which alternates to the Accentra TJ3111 share that body material?
The Accentra TJ3111 has a cast aluminum body with rack and pinion design. Comparable cast aluminum closers include the Falcon SC81A medium duty Grade 1, the Falcon SC61A light to medium duty Grade 1, the LCN 1450 medium duty with cast aluminum construction and spring sizes 1-6, and the Sargent 1331 Grade 1 with a universal aluminum body. The LCN 1261, by contrast, is cast iron.
20) Are there other size 1-6 adjustable ADA closers I can spec alongside the Accentra TJ3111 across a building?
The Accentra TJ3111 is ADA compliant with adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6, which lets one part number cover a range of door widths. Other adjustable 1-6 ADA closers include the Imperial USA TC4300 Series heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer, the BEST EHD9000 Series with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, and the Norton Rixson 8501A with adjustable size 1-6 spring. The Calibre CA9901 is a tri-pack ADA closer covering sizes 2-5.
21) Which Accentra TJ3111 alternates are meant for aluminum storefront doors?
The Accentra TJ3111 is a commercial closer that mounts top jamb at a 2-3/4 inch to 6-3/4 inch reveal, which covers many storefront frames. If you want a closer built specifically for that application, the Norton Rixson 1600 Series aluminum storefront closer with tri-style mounting is heavy duty Grade 1, and the Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with 180 degree swing.
22) Does the Accentra TJ3111 come with mounting screws, or do I have to supply fasteners?
Self-drilling and tapping screws come with the closer, and the manufacturer supplies templates for marking hole locations on the door and frame. Install order is template, drill and route the prep, mount and torque the hardware, then set spring tension and the latch, sweep, and backcheck valves before testing the hold open.
23) Is the Accentra TJ3111 a commercial closer or is it suitable for residential use?
It is a commercial architectural closer. The 3000 Series is built for commercial office, education, healthcare, retail, industrial and warehouse, multi-tenant residential common areas, and government buildings. For light residential duty a Grade 2 unit such as the Cal-Royal 400 Series hydraulic closer is the lighter-duty category, and the Falcon SC91A is a Grade 3 light duty surface closer.
