Do you have any information on CE Marking or CE Marking of Doorsets?

Please refer to our technical section under Standards.

Where can concealed door closers be used? Are they just for residential projects?

Although concealed door closers are often used on domestic doors on flats and apartment main entrance doors, they are also regularly used in commercial settings. A concealed door closer can be used on any door with a light to medium traffic flow. If you’re unsure please contact our sales office on 01202 676262 but generally they can be used in many of the applications where overhead door closers are used.

Can concealed door closers be used on fire doors?

Concealed door closers can be fitted on 30 and 60 minute fire rated doors but the closer
should be CE marked (where applicable) and fire tested in accordance with BS EN1634-1:2000 and BS EN1634-1:1999.  However they must conform to the fire test evidence for the door they are fitted on.

What size door closer to use?

Just like overhead door closers, the size you need depends on the size and weight of the door and where it will be installed – wind force and fire rating may need to be taken into account. Bearing in mind the age and ability of the users, it is important for the door closer to be “suitable and sufficient” for practical everyday use. Fire safety is vital but user safety is very important. If you need any advance on this please do not hesitate to contact our sales office.

How reliable are concealed closers and how do I maintain them once they’re fitted?

Most door closers are all tested to half a million cycles on specially designed test rigs so we are confident in their reliability and we offer a 3 year guarantee.

Concealed door closers require little or no maintenance. Because they are concealed in the door leaf, they are less likely to be damaged, vandalised or stolen so are more likely to give years of trouble free operation than their overhead counterparts.

Why should I choose a concealed door closer above an overhead version?

As a concealed door closer is hidden from sight it looks better! It is reliable and less prone to damage than overheads door closers and concealed door closers are virtually maintenance-free. A quality concealed door closer is extremely competitive against its overhead equivalent.

If I use a concealed door closer does that mean I can't use other hardware on the hinge edge of the door?

It is still possible to use other hardware such as hinges and finger guards even with a concealed door closer in place.
