What is a door closer?

A door closer is a special attachment for doors which ensures that they shut every time they’re opened. That means when someone opens and walks through a door with a door closer fitted, it will automatically shut again without human intervention. 

Where are door closers used?

Door closers are particularly popular for use in commercial and public buildings, such as offices, schools and shops, where fire safety regulations must be met. They are often fitted to fire doors to ensure that they stay shut at all times when not in use.

What are the different types of door closers?

There are three main types of door closers. There are regular arm, parallel arm and top jamb mount. These door closers all function in a similar way, but are installed on a different part of the door.

You can get a variety of door closers here at Fire Protection Online, including heavy duty, medium, standard and electromagnetic.

How can you make a door close automatically?

Door closers are the best way to make a door close automatically - they ensure that every time a door is opened, it shuts again. 

Having a door that closes automatically is a great advantage for buildings where there are fire doors, or where you want doors to stay closed wherever possible for other safety reasons. 

Does a door closer go inside or outside?

It is entirely dependent on the type of door you want to install the closer on. For external doors, the closer should be mounted on the interior side. For internal doors, the closer should be mounted on the side of the door which is least exposed to public view.
