Do the neighbours complain about the main entrance door to the building?
Tips for choosing a good door closer:
- It should have a force regulator
- Heat-stable lubricant
- Cam mechanism
- Get advice from experts
Either the door slams shut or it stays half open, or needs to be pushed hard to open it, or it breaks on a regular basis, etc. Main entrance doors are the source of many complaints in most communities of residents. The root cause of these incidents is usually an essential component: the door closer. It is a component that is responsible for the essential task of automatically and safely closing high traffic doors, but which largely goes unnoticed by the general public.
To prevent the typical inconveniences when entering your main entrance once and for all, we are going to list the characteristics that a door closer must have in order for it to carry out its function correctly:
- It is important that the door closer has a force regulator because that way we can adjust it to the size of the door and control its weight.
- The internal lubricant should be heat stable. In this way changes in temperature will not affect the closing speed and the slamming of doors will be avoided.
- It should have a cam mechanism. This is a highly recommended system for the door to open smoothly, making it easy for anyone to use it.
- There are door closers that are identified as high traffic and are ideal for communities with many neighbours since their special features extend the useful life of the product.
- And finally, trust the experts who will be able to recommend the door closer that best suits the characteristics of your building. A good choice means peace of mind for your community of residents.
