INTRODUCTION/ORDERING/PACKING

Introduction

The Norton^® Series 7500 door closer combines the features of the Series 7700, our finest door closer, with a spring that permits power adjustment through a range of sizes. These closers are available in two distinct power ranges.

Series 7500 are Normal Power Range Closers and are adjustable in a 2 thru 6 size range. These closers can be installed and adjusted to conform to the closing power requirements of conventionally sized closers.

Series 7500BF are Accessibility Code Closers and are adjustable in a 1 thru 4 size range. These closers are lighter-powered than the Series 7500 to reduce the door opening resistance to manageable levels for the handicapped and still provide door control.

The Series 7500/7500BF closers have a complete range of separate control adjustments: sweep speed, latch speed, backcheck cushioning and backcheck positioning. Adjustable delayed action closing is also available as an option.

Norton Series 7500 closers are ideal for the specifier and the building owner who wish to combine the finest door control with a wide range of power adjustment. Series 7500BF closers combine the features of the Series 7500 closer with reduced opening resistance to comply with A. D. A. and other accessibility code requirements.

These closers can be specified and installed with the knowledge that they will provide smooth dependable door control. And with a minimum inventory, the building owner has door control for any normal replacement or expansion requirement.
