Adjustable EN 2–5 Closing Strength
The EN 2–5 power range allows the closer's closing force to be adjusted to suit the requirements of the installation. Selecting the correct setting is important to achieve effective closing while ensuring the door remains manageable for users.
The appropriate power setting will depend on factors including door width, door weight, wind conditions, latch resistance and the installation arrangement. The closer should always be set up in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the requirements of the specific doorset.
Integrated Backcheck Protection
The backcheck function provides resistance as the door is opened towards its maximum opening position. This helps limit sudden, forceful opening movements that could otherwise cause damage to the door, frame, adjacent walls or surrounding fixtures.
Backcheck is particularly useful in busy environments where doors may be opened quickly or with considerable force. It helps provide a more controlled opening action, although it is not intended to replace a dedicated door stop where one is required.
Silver Finish for a Professional Appearance
The silver finish makes the ASSA DC140A a versatile choice for contemporary and traditional commercial interiors. It coordinates well with common silver-finished door handles, hinges and other architectural hardware, helping maintain a consistent appearance throughout the installation.
Its understated finish is suitable for a wide range of settings, including offices, commercial buildings, educational facilities and general-purpose access doors.
Applications
The ASSA DC140A Silver Door Closer may be considered for a variety of door installations, including:
-
Office doors and internal access doors.
-
Commercial premises and business facilities.
-
Corridors and circulation areas.
-
Public and institutional buildings.
-
General-purpose doors requiring controlled closing and backcheck protection.
Suitability for a particular installation should be confirmed against the manufacturer's technical documentation, door dimensions, mounting arrangement and any applicable fire or accessibility requirements.
Installation and Adjustment
For reliable operation, the ASSA DC140A should be installed using the manufacturer's specified fixing positions and installation instructions. Correct positioning and adjustment are essential to achieve the intended closing action and backcheck performance.
The closer should be configured to provide effective closing without creating excessive opening resistance. Where the door forms part of a fire-resisting doorset, installation, adjustment and maintenance must follow the relevant doorset specification and applicable fire safety requirements.
