About Door Closers
When replacing an existing closer, remove the cover and match the model number and/or mounting hole pattern to a closer in our offering. Or, use one of our closers and a universal mounting plate that matches most hole patterns.
If you are installing a new closer, choose one that works for your door width. Due to added resistance from wind, closers typically accommodate smaller exterior doors than interior doors.
There are three typical mounting positions for door closers; many of our closers are versatile and can be mounted in any of these positions. To determine opening direction, stand on the side of the door where the closer will be mounted. If the door opens towards you it opens in; opens away from you it opens out.
Door Mount, Opens In—Also known as regular arm mount, this position allows the door to open in toward the closer.
Door Mount, Opens Out—Also known as parallel arm mount, the arm lays parallel with the door in the closed position.
Frame Mount, Opens Out—Also known as top frame mount, this position is often used for exterior doors.
Heavy Duty Roller Latches
These latches are spring-loaded to overcome resistance caused by gaskets and air pressure to close doors tightly. Mount them vertically at the top of walk-in freezer doors. The arm rolls into the strike plate as the door closes for a secure hold. A firm tug releases the roller and opens the door. Door offset is the space between the door face and the frame when the door is closed.

Soft-Close Heavy Duty Roller Latches
To prevent doors from slamming, these latches are hydraulic. Mount them vertically at the top of walk-in freezer doors. The arm rolls into the strike plate as the door closes for a secure hold. A firm tug releases the roller and opens the door. Door offset is the space between the door face and the frame when the door is closed.

Freezer Door Closers
Often used on large freezer and cold-storage doors, these closers are designed for doors that weigh 200 lbs. or more. Mount them to the face of your door and frame just above the door's lowest hinge. These free-moving closers pull doors shut after you've opened them. They are reversible for right or left door-swing directions. Offset is the space between the door face and the frame when the door is closed.
