PLATES AND BRACKETS

Regular Arm Closers: Closer Mounting Plate

Narrow Top Rail -- #7786 Drop Plate: For use where the narrow top rail of the door prevents the closer from being mounted directly to the door surface. This Drop Plate must be used for any Series 7700 or Series 7780 closer mounted on a top rail between 1 -7/8" and 3-3/8" (48 mm and 86 mm) in height.

Top Jamp Closers: Closer Mounting Plate

Narrow Frame -- #7786 Back Plate: For use where a narrow frame face prevents the closer from being mounted directly to the frame. This Back Plate must be used for any Series 7700 closer mounted on a frame between 1-7/8" and 3-1/8" (48 mm and 79 mm) in height.

Low Ceiling Clearance -- Overhead Door Holder -- #7787 Drop Plate: For use where the ceiling clearance is between 1-7/8" and 3-7/8" (48 mm and 98 mm) or where a surface or concealed overhead door holder prevents normal top jamb mounting. This plate drops the closer and allows the arm mounting screws to clear the bottom of the door holder. This places the centerline of the arm mounting screws at 3-1/4" (83 mm) from the top of the door.

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

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 5/8" (16 mm) high stop.
