Norton 161 Series Door Closer
The Norton 161BF x 689 x TPN is a manual hydraulic door closer designed for interior and exterior use. Its adjustable size range of 1 to 4 accommodates various door weights and widths. The non-handed design allows installation on left or right swinging doors. It meets ANSI A156.4 Grade 2 standards and is UL and cUL listed for safety compliance.
Suited For High Traffic Openings
This closer suits commercial entrances, parking lot doors, and heavy duty applications requiring reliable operation. The parallel, regular, and top frame mounting styles offer flexibility for different frame types. ADA compliance ensures accessibility standards are met. Builders needing hold open functionality or ligature resistant hardware should look at alternative models designed for those specific requirements.
Consistent Hydraulic Control Under Load
The hydraulic mechanism provides steady closing speed and latching action during continuous daily cycles. Aluminum painted housing with cast aluminum arm resists wear in demanding environments. Non hold open arm type ensures the door returns to closed position every time. Maximum door opening of 180 degrees allows full access when needed without stressing the closer body.

Questions about this item
What mounting hardware must already be on the door and frame for the 161BF x 689 x TPN closer to install?
The closer mounts in parallel, regular or top-frame style; the door and frame must accept the supplied brackets and fasteners for one of those three configurations.
Will the adjustable 1-to-4 spring power handle an older, heavier door that previously used a fixed-size closer?
Yes — the spring is adjustable from size 1 through size 4, so it can be tuned to match the weight and width of an existing door that falls within that range.
After installation, how can I confirm the 161BF x 689 x TPN is operating to its ANSI A156.4 Grade 2 rating?
Open the door to 180 degrees and release; it should close and latch smoothly under hydraulic control without slamming or stalling, meeting the Grade 2 cycle and force requirements.
