The LCN 1461RW parallel arm door closer mounts on the push side of the door frame with the arm extending parallel to the door. This configuration keeps the closer arm out of the pathway while providing controlled closing action for high-traffic commercial openings.
Built with cast iron construction and all-weather fluid, this Grade 1 closer handles spring sizes 1 through 6 with field-adjustable sizing. The adjustable non-sized design eliminates guesswork during installation. Brass finish provides corrosion resistance for exterior applications where weather exposure occurs.
Thru-bolt mounting with TBSRT hardware ensures secure attachment to hollow metal frames. Peel and stick templates simplify layout and reduce installation time on new construction or retrofit projects.
