Accentra 5811 Grade 1 Cast Iron Door Closer with Friction Hold Open Arm
The Accentra 5811 Heavy Duty Door Closer (formerly the Yale 5800 Series) represents the pinnacle of industrial strength and functional flexibility. Built with a rugged Cast Iron body, this closer is engineered for high-traffic commercial environments that require a reliable "hold open" feature for convenience during deliveries or peak foot traffic. The 5811 features a specialized Friction Hold Open Arm, allowing the door to remain at a set degree until manually pulled closed, making it a favorite for stockrooms, office corridors, and educational facilities.
As an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified hardware solution, the 5811 is a high-intent choice for facility managers looking for an economical yet indestructible closer. It serves as a direct retrofit for the LCN 4040, providing a seamless, high-strength upgrade for existing door footprints without the need for extensive modification.
Industrial-Strength Performance & Flexible Control
- Rugged Cast Iron Construction: The heavy-duty cast iron housing provides maximum wear resistance and consistent hydraulic control under the most demanding institutional use.
- Friction Hold Open Functionality: The architectural-grade arm allows the door to be held in an open position at a predetermined angle. A simple manual pull disengages the hold, returning the door to its standard self-closing cycle.
- Fully Adjustable Spring Power (Sizes 1-6): This closer is highly versatile, with adjustable spring tension that can be tuned down for ADA accessibility or increased to handle heavy exterior perimeter doors.
- Universal Tri-Packed Mounting: Shipped with all necessary hardware for Regular, Parallel, or Top Jamb mounting, ensuring compatibility with virtually any commercial door configuration.
- Triple Valve Precision: Includes independent, non-critical adjustment valves for Closing Speed, Latching Speed, and Backcheck. The Backcheck valve is critical for cushioning the door during a forceful opening to prevent damage to the wall and the closer arm.
- Professional Aesthetics: Includes a full plastic cover that conceals all mounting fasteners and adjustment valves, providing a clean, tamper-resistant look.
