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

Standard Installation -- #1618A Soffit Plate:
This soffit plate is supplied standard with all non-hold-open closers to permit
parallel arm mounting. It can be mounted where the frame soffit is as narrow as 1"
(25 mm).

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 518" (16 mm) in height. All
of the screw holes are in a straight line, requiring as little as 1 -1/4" (32 ram) of
frame reveal to mount bracket and maintain good closer arm geometry. Where the frame
soffit is as wide as 2" (51 ram), this soffit plate may be used to clear
weather-stripping that is up to 1 -3/8" (35 ram) wide and 518" (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 arm to clear up to a 5/8" (16mm) high
stop. |
