Safety Spring Door Closer for Residential Use, 4-3/4 Inch Arm, UL Listed, Diecast, White (Single Pack)

The Prime-Line part KC11US safety spring door closer allows you to easily convert your hinged door into a self-closing one. This surface-mounted door closer can be installed in minutes! These closers can be used on doors weighing up to 150 lbs and are non-handed, meaning they can be used on both left and right-handed hinged-swinging doors.

The door closers feature an adjustable closing force and speed, allowing you to customize the door's movement to your preference. Constructed of diecast materials with a white painted finish, this safety spring door closer can complement any style of door. Each closer is U.L. listed with a 1/2 hour fire rating, ensuring safety.

Unlike some other door closers that use a pulling-closed method, these closers operate in a pushing-closed manner and do not have a hold-open feature. The closer arm has the ability to swing a full 180 degrees, but once installed, the door's distance of swing will be reduced to the point where it makes contact with the bullet-shaped housing of the closer.

All necessary fasteners and installation instructions are included with this item. For lubrication, it's best to avoid using WD-40, as it can break down the lubricating grease. Instead, apply white lithium grease to the internal compressing springs if desired or necessary.

In addition to the standard white finish, these door closers are also available in black, brown, chrome plated, and satin chrome plated options, allowing you to match your door's hardware.

For a more rust and weather-resistant closure suitable for outdoor or exterior use, consider the KC50HD (white) and KC57US (brown) model numbers, which are designed for use with lightweight gates and screen doors.

It's important to note that overtightening the closer can cause it to fail. Adjust the closer one quarter turn at a time and test the door after each adjustment to ensure it's functioning correctly.

Overall, the installation of these KC11US safety spring door closers is a quick and easy DIY project. They can be used on doors up to 150 lbs, on both left and right-handed doors, with the ability to adjust the tension to your liking. With a range of finish options and suitability for outdoor use, these door closers can be a versatile and practical addition to your home.
