Cam-Motion Technology for Smooth Operation
A key feature of the ASSA DC700A is its cam-action mechanism. Cam-motion technology is designed to reduce the effort required to open a door, particularly when compared with traditional door closers that use a conventional rack-and-pinion mechanism.
This can be particularly beneficial in buildings where doors are used frequently throughout the day or where accessibility is an important consideration. By helping to reduce opening resistance, the closer can contribute to a more comfortable user experience while retaining the closing force needed for the specified application.
The DC700A is designed to combine smooth opening characteristics with dependable closing control, making it a practical option for demanding commercial installations.
EN 3-6 Adjustable Closing Power
The EN 3-6 power classification indicates an adjustable closing-force range covering EN power sizes 3 through 6. This gives installers flexibility when specifying the closer for different door applications.
The appropriate power setting depends on factors such as door width, door weight, wind conditions, building pressure differences and the requirements of the installation. Correct adjustment is important to achieve reliable closing without creating unnecessary resistance when opening the door.
For applications where a stronger closing force is required, the DC700A's EN 3-6 range offers greater flexibility than lower-powered door closers. Always consult the manufacturer's technical documentation to confirm the permitted door dimensions, mounting arrangements and applicable installation limitations.
Integrated Backcheck Function
The ASSA DC700A incorporates a backcheck function to help control the door during opening. Backcheck provides increasing resistance as the door approaches a wide-open position, helping to reduce the impact of the door being thrown open against a wall, adjacent fittings or other surrounding structures.
This feature can be particularly useful in busy commercial buildings, corridors, offices and other areas where doors may be opened frequently or with considerable force.
Backcheck is intended to help protect the door and surrounding building fabric; it should not be treated as a doorstop or as a substitute for suitable door-opening restraints where these are required.
Silver Finish for Architectural Applications
The silver finish gives the DC700A a clean, professional appearance that suits a broad range of contemporary and traditional commercial interiors. It can be coordinated with silver-finished hinges, handles, pull handles and other architectural door hardware to create a consistent appearance across an installation.
Its understated finish makes it suitable for use in offices, retail premises, public buildings, educational establishments and other commercial environments where both appearance and practical performance matter.
Suitable Applications
The ASSA DC700A Silver Cam Motion Door Closer EN 3-6 with Backcheck can be considered for a range of applications, including:
-
Commercial offices and business premises.
-
Educational buildings and institutional facilities.
-
Healthcare and public-sector environments.
-
Retail units and commercial developments.
-
Internal doors requiring controlled closing and higher closing power.
-
Suitable fire-resisting doorsets, where the complete assembly and closer installation meet the relevant requirements.
The final suitability of the closer will depend on the door construction, dimensions, weight, usage, mounting position and applicable building or fire-safety requirements.
Installation and Adjustment
For best results, the ASSA DC700A should be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the correct fixing template. The installer should confirm that the door and frame are suitable for the selected mounting arrangement and that all fixings are appropriate for the substrate and expected loads.
The closing power and available closing-speed adjustments should be set to achieve reliable operation for the individual door. Backcheck should also be adjusted appropriately where adjustment is provided. Incorrect installation or adjustment can affect closing performance, accessibility and the protection offered to the door and surrounding structure.
Where the closer is fitted to a fire-resisting doorset, installation and adjustment must follow the relevant doorset specification and applicable fire-safety requirements.
Why Choose the ASSA DC700A?
The ASSA DC700A is a strong option for projects requiring a combination of cam-action door control, adjustable closing power and an integrated backcheck function. Its EN 3-6 range provides flexibility for applications requiring greater closing force, while its cam-motion mechanism is designed to support smoother opening.
For installers, facilities managers, contractors and specifiers looking for a silver-finished commercial door closer, the DC700A offers a practical solution for controlled door operation across a variety of building types.
