Understanding Floor Mounted Door Closers

What Makes Floor Closers Different

Floor mounted door closers excel in door control technology for commercial applications. Unlike overhead closers, these devices are concealed within the floor, creating a clean architectural appearance while providing superior support for heavier doors. You can count on floor closers to deliver consistent performance in high-traffic environments where dependability matters most.

To enhance security near exit points, floor closers can be paired with exit alarms that alert staff during unauthorized egress.

Key Components of Floor Closers

  • Adjustable spring tension to accommodate different door weights
  • Hydraulic control for consistent closing speed and final latch action
  • Specialized spindles that connect to the door bottom
  • Durable cover plates, available in multiple finish options
