Door Entry

Door closers

by Mark Rowe

The Cam-Motion door closers were launched over 15 years ago by ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions. Its Cam profile allows pull and push mounting from the same unit. The makers say Cam-Motion door closers can be specified for, or installed in any of four fixing applications – on door or head mount for both push and pull applications. This Universal Cam system was invented by ASSA ABLOY.

Thanks to the removable and height-adjustable spindle, offered as standard on all the company’s door closers, at installation the spindle design offers more room to manoeuvre and can be re-positioned to provide the correct spring pre-load. The design also reduces the need for secondary installation work, such as cutting out architraves to allow guide rail installation. Supporting accessories such as mounting plates, hold-open devices and dampers create bespoke door control.

The range can be adapted to suit changes in building function and design, because all core models in the Rack and Pinion and Cam-Motion portfolio, including the DC200, DC300, DC500 and DC700, share identical mounting positions, fixing centres and positioning from the hinge. All models include adjustable backcheck as standard, helping doors avoid damage from colliding with walls or fixed items when opened fully. They also require only three valves, with a two-stage latching action as standard via the singular latch valve.

David Hindle, Head of Door Closer Sales at ASSA ABLOY, says: “As the inventors of the first Universal Cam door closer solution, we’re proud of our extensive product portfolio. Our Cam-Motion range stands out against competitor models as it has always been both unhanded and universal, offering four different fitting applications in a single unit. Additionally, Cam-Motion devices balance excellent performance and quality with outstanding ease-of-use. Because installation is simpler and easier, users can quickly enjoy the benefits of an attractive, discrete product that is fully compliant with fire regulations and durable to over half a million cycles.”
