1601 ACCESSORIES
Parallel Arm Closers: Brackets for Non-Hold-Open Arms

Standard Installation -- #1618A Soffit Plate: This soffit
plate is supplied standard with most non-hold-open closers, to permit parallel arm
mounting. It can be mounted where the frame soffit is as narrow as 1" (25 mm). With
Series P1601SS closers, a 1618AS Soffit Plate, fabricated of stainless steel, is supplied
standard.

Mounting between doors -- #2018 Soffit Bracket: For use where
insufficient space between companion doors does not permit use of other soffit plates.
This bracket permits mounting of the closer between doors with as little as 3" (76
mm) of header space. Permits closer arm to clear up to a 5/8" (16 mm) high stop.

Narrow Frame/Removable Stop -- #2018B Soffit Plate: For use
where a narrow frame or frame with removable stop does not permit use of the standard
soffit plate. This soffit plate may be mounted on the frame soffit or the frame rabbet
where the stop does not exceed 5/8" (16 mm) in height. All of the screw holes are in
a straight line, requiring as little as 1 -1 /4" (32 mm) of frame reveal to mount
bracket and maintain good closer arm geometry. Where the frame soffit is as wide as
2" (51 mm), this soffit plate may be used to clear weatherstripping that is up to 1
-3/8" (35 mm) wide and 5/8" (16 mm) in height.

Blade/Applied Stop -- #2018D Soffit Plate: For use where a
blade or applied stop does not permit installation of the standard soffit plate. Mounts to
either the frame soffit or rabbet. Since this soffit plate projects 7/8" (22 mm) less
than a standard soffit plate, it requires a minimum frame reveal of 1-1/2" (38 mm).
Permits closer to clear up to 5/8" (16 mm) high stop.

Flush Transom -- #2022 Angle Bracket: For use where rabbeted
or flush transom conditions prevent installation of a soffit plate. Used in combination
with the 1618A soffit plate, or it may be used in combination with the 2018S soffit plate
when it is necessary for the closer arm to clear a separate overhead door holder.

Extra-clearance -- #2018S Offset Soffit Plate: For use where
the need for additional clearance prevents use of the standard soffit plate. This plate
mounts to the frame soffit to provide up to 1-1/2" (38 mm) of clearance when a
separate overhead door holder is used. Standard mounting requires a 2-5/8" (67 mm)
wide frame soffit. It may also be used where unusually high frame stops or
weatherstripping prevent the use of other soffit plates.
