The door closer is installed on the door. Its function is to automatically close the door when the door is opened. Its characteristic is that it can accurately close the door to the initial position. Door closers are widely used in our lives. There are five ways to install the door closer. Depending on the door, the choice of installation is different.

The installation method of the door closer is as follows:

1. Standard installation:

The door closer body is installed on the side of the sliding door, and the support arm is installed on the door frame. This installation method is suitable for the narrow door frame and there is not enough space to install the door closer. This installation method is also suitable for the door opening direction without obstacles when the door is opened to a large enough angle, the door closer will not hit foreign objects.

2. Door frame installation:

The door closer is installed on the side of the sliding door, and the arm is installed on the door. This installation method is suitable for wider door frames and enough space to install the door closer. Compared with standard installation, this installation method is suitable for obstacles such as walls in the door opening direction. Compared with standard installation, the closing force of this installation method is larger, which is suitable for larger and heavier doors.

3. Parallel installation:

The door closer is installed on the side of the sliding door, and the parallel plate is installed on the door frame. This installation method is suitable for very narrow door frames, or almost no door frames. After you install it in this way, there is no protruding connecting rod and rocker arm, so it is more beautiful. Compared with the standard installation, this installation is suitable for obstacles such as walls in the direction of opening the door. Compared with standard installation, parallel installation is suitable for low closing force, and there are obstacles such as walls in the opening direction.

4. Hidden installation:

This installation method is the same as the slide rail installation for the concealed door closer. After installing in this way, the door has no exposed parts in the closed state, so it is the most beautiful. This installation method is the most complicated, and it is best to require professionals to install it. This installation method requires a large gap between the door frame and the door frame, generally 10MM (or remove the material on the upper part of the door during installation to increase the gap). The thickness of the door exceeds 42mm.

5. Slide rail installation:

Compared with the previous methods, it mainly installs the equipment on the door, and the sliding rail is on the door frame. It is suitable for places with small door closing force, and because there is no protruding connecting rod and rocker arm, it has a higher aesthetics.
