The closing force for series 7500 door closer is adjustable from a size 1 to a size 6, as outlined
in ANSI Standard A156.4. When this series of door closer is installed and adjusted to conform to
ADA reduced opening force requirements (5 lbs max.) for interior doors, it may not have adequate
closing force to reliably close and latch the door. Power adjustments charted on pages 3,4 and 5
are recommended where possible, to ensure proper door control.
