Fully complaint door closers
Overhead cam action closers
The traditional type of door closer is
known as a rack and pinion closer
which must be used with a projecting
scissor arm. However dormakaba
recommends the selection of cam
action door closers instead of these
for two reasons:
• Due to their unique cam action they
can achieve the requirements of
ADM and BS8300* compliance
within a greater tolerance than
traditional rack and pinion door
closers. This is particularly
important as hinges and
intumescent seals will provide
additional resistance to opening
and closing.
• Cam action closers have been
especially designed for use with
slide arm and channels. Traditional
rack and pinion door closers can
only operate efficiently with
standard projecting scissor arms.
The use of slide arms within a
school dramatically reduces the risk
of vandalism as the arm and
channel are far less obtrusive than
scissor arms. In addition to this
there are no fixings visible on the
closer mechanism or the slide
channel. This combination of slide
arm and channel with cam action
will result in ease of operation by all
users, is less vulnerable to abuse
and vandalism and will therefore
lead to improved life cycle costs.
Concealed door closers
In addition, dormakaba offers a
concealed cam action door closer
(ITS96) that is concealed in the door
leaf and frame. This means it is less
prone to vandalism and is also ideal
for prestigious doors.
Floor Springs
Floor springs are another alternative
to overhead door closers and are
suitable for single or double action
doors. They provide ease of operation
and as they are concealed within the
floor - good protection against door
closer abuse or vandalism.
Transom Closers
Transom closers are the ideal
alternative where floorsprings cannot
be used. dormakaba Transom closers
provide the performance of
dormakaba Floor-springs and are
suitable for single and double action
doors. They provide ease of operation
and as they are concealed within the
Transom, good protection against
door closer abuse or vandalism.
Hold-open and Free swing devices
When electro-magnetic hold open
devices are fitted to doors they
dramatically help to improve access in
and around any building, particularly
in corridors. They allow doors to be
held open during normal use and close
upon activation of the fire alarm or
power failure (fail safe). Once
activated, the door closer will close
the door and then perform as a
normal door closer until the alarm is
deactivated or the power restored.
When electro-magnetic free swing
devices are fitted to doors they allow
doors to be operated without the user
feeling any resistance from the door
closer mechanism. In addition to this
they allow the door to be left in any
position, performing as if the door
had no closing device fitted. Upon
activation of the fire alarm or power
failure (fail safe) the free swing device
will close the door from any position it
was left in, and then perform like a
normal door closer until the alarm is
deactivated or the power restored.
All the dormakaba electro-magnetic
and free swing devices are CERTIFIRE
Approved and CE Marked to BS
EN1155.
