A <a href=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/buy\/door-closer\/\">door closer<\/a> is exactly what it sounds like. A door closer is a mechanical device which closes a door after someone has opened it or after it was opened automatically. There are a lot of things that need to be considered including the manufacturer options, preferences of the customer, and building specifications. In addition to the performance of the closer in situations of a fire, the other criteria might include control over the closing rate, resistance to opening forces, durability, and safety.<\/p>\n<p>Also, there are several door closer types and you must choose the one that suits your needs the most.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The most popular kinds of door closers are-<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Overhead door closers<\/li>\n<li>Concealed door closers<\/li>\n<li>Floor-spring door closers<\/li>\n<li>Surface-mounted door closers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Overhead Door Closers<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: 1px solid #cccccc;\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Overhead-Door-Closers.jpg\" alt=\"Overhead Door Closers\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The overhead door closers are the most common of all and are widely used in commercial properties. For instance, conference doors, office interior doors are generally affixed with a closer which would automatically close the door. The three most common types of overhead door closers are &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Regular Arm<\/strong>&#8211; The regular arm closer is a pull side application which means that it is located outside the door. There are two arms, one of which is attached to the frame while the other one is attached to a spring-loaded box. When closed, the arms project perpendicularly from the door. This is one of the most power-efficient options of all.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Parallel Arm <\/strong>\u2013 in this application, there are two arms that sit on the door\u2019s top. It is with the help of a spring-loaded box that it is attached to the door and powers the closing action. These kinds of closers are most common in schools and commercial properties. Also, they are more attractive than the other overhead options.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Top Jamb<\/strong>&#8211; Just like the regular arm closers, the top jambs have arms that project out perpendicularly from the door. The only difference being that the spring-loaded box is mounted on the doorframe\u2019s face. These are generally used for glass or aluminum doors as these doors have a rather narrow top rail.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Read Also:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/different-types-of-locks\/\">Different Types of Locks<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Concealed Door Closers<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: 1px solid #cccccc;\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Concealed-Door-Closers.jpg\" alt=\"Concealed Door Closers\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This kind of home Door Closer Style is fitted into the door or the frame in such a way that they remain concealed.

The door closer must be able to hold the door close while there is no latch attached to the door.
