Closer
bodies are constructed of a special aluminum alloy, carefully selected
to accommodate interactive steel components and operating conditions.
Rack
& pinion operation provides a smooth constant control of the door
through its full opening and closing cycle. 180° door swing can be
achieved when door, frame, hardware and arm function do not interfere.
Unitrol arms combine the features of a double lever arm overhead door stop/holder with the backcheck feature of the door closer to reduce door stopping shock loads to a minimum. The Unitrol uses a compression spring buffer at the soffit plate/arm shoe that will absorb 30 lbf. of force, 5° prior to the door’s dead stop. Coupled with the door closer’s backcheck feature, this arm provides the most controlled stop available with a surface door closer.
Adjustable Delayed Action Closing (Optional)
An optional hydraulic feature, available in lieu of backcheck, adds a third speed range to the closing cycle. This feature becomes effective when the door is opened and released at any point beyond 70°. The amount of time delay depends upon the combination of the angle of door release and valve adjustment. The valve can be adjusted with a 1/8" (3mm) hex key from no delay time up to maximum delay times of:
