ADA compliant closers are: DC3200, DC3210, DC3220
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that doors having door closers
have an opening force not to exceed 5 lbf. for interior doors, 8.5 lbf exterior doors.
Use standard templating for regular arm and parallel arm applications. Jamb
mounted applications use the template for 140° door opening to achieve the
required opening force.
**NOTE: These forces are for standard templating with bearing type hinges and do not account for pressure differentials and draft.
