Sprayed Finishes

All Norton Door Controls, Arms, Brackets and Accessories are available in the sprayed finishes illustrated. Prior to application of the finish, all parts are prepared to assure a correct bonding of the finish to the metal surface.

Cast Components are either buffed or heat flashed to remove all mold flashing and burrs.

Stamped Components are either buffed or tumbled to remove all die burrs and rough edges.

Assembled components prior to finishing are immersed in a bath of degreasing solvent to remove all dirt, grease and oil. These assembled components are then dried in an oven before their entrance into the spray booths.

All Norton Door Controls, Arms, Brackets and Accessories are then finished by means of electro-static spray equipment. The finish is attracted by means of ionic action to the surface being sprayed. This method assures an even coat of finish on all surfaces, even those not in the direct path of the sprayed finish.

All Norton Door Controls, Arms, Brackets and Accessories are available in the Sprayed Finishes listed. Finish is to be ordered by the Norton Symbol.

For door closer installations where corrosive atmospheres are a problem Series 1600SS or 7500SS door closers are recommended. These door closers, arms and brackets are fabricated of either aluminum or selected grades of stainless steel and offer the best resistance to corrosion. See Series 1600 or 7500 closer catalogs for more information.
