Selecting the right commercial door closer for your business requires considering several key factors:
Door/Opening Size and Weight: The closer needs to be powerful enough to effectively handle the size and weight of your door. A heavy door requires a robust closer with a higher closing force to ensure proper operation.
Location: Exterior doors are exposed to the elements, so a weather-resistant closer with corrosion-resistant materials is ideal. Interior doors have more flexibility in material selection.
Traffic Volume: High-traffic areas benefit from automatic door closers with features such as delayed closing or "hold open" options to improve accessibility and user flow.
Aesthetics and Budget: Door closers come in various styles and finishes to complement your building's aesthetics. Consider options such as concealed closers for a streamlined look. Budget plays a role, but prioritize quality and functionality over purely cost-effective choices.
