Best door closer tutorial ever! So clear and detailed. Nailed that perfect adjustment instantly.

That was an awesome tutorial. I have never before adjusted a door closer. The model on the door that I needed to adjust is not similar in layout (different manufacturer), but the same four adjustments were easy to locate once I knew what the inscribed "L" "S" "BC" related to. Because of the in depth explanation of what each adjustment does and how they work together in concert with one another to close the door properly, and what "properly" looks like, I was able to figure out how to adjust the door closer to on our condo entry door and do so in under 10 minutes. The door closer hasn't worked properly since it was replaced over a month ago. Multiple calls to maintenance failed to get it properly adjusted. It should be noted that I am generally mechanically inept, so the fact that I was able to get this done efficiently with the instruction in this video speaks volumes.THANK YOU for taking the time to post this video.

very helpful and clear, two different simultaneous views made it even better

I am a facilities manager for an office and this is my favorite video so far for adjusting door closers! Thank you so much guys!

I agree that this is best explained tutorial on the how to adjust a door that I have seen to date. Very well done.

That was a well-done explanation on adjusting the door. Used it on a Falcon closer and worked perfectly.

thank you! very informative video. I was told to replace a door closer at work. It was slamming hard but after watching your video, i just tightened the closing speed and it's perfect now. Thanks again man

Excellent, clear, concise video. I just bought a Norton 8501 door closer. This should be very helpful.

Thank you..... I just adjusted the front outer door at my company..... tech workers couldn't figure it out!!!

That was an awesome explanation. Can't wait to go adjust all my doors. Thank you.

Great Info... All the best from Ireland

Excellent Video. Made my job of installing a replacement unit much easier. Well done.

Nicely done,! full explanation and good delivery speed, just one more thing, a quick shot with the camera up to the two ends of the closer to show the Allen keyholes, and the other end to show the Power adjustment hole or nut, might be helpful. Thank You for the video, I will tackle my bad door closer now with confidence!

Very precise tutorial. It really help us to fix our door closer. Thank u so much

Fantastic. Awesome tutorial. Thank you.

Awesome tutorial, thanks!

Thank-you. This video helped out a lot.

Excellent video.

very well explained & demonstrated

great concise help, thanks

Regarding the strength: depending on your installation obviously, but instead of adjusting the spring strength screw, you might get significant results by changing the mounting point of the armset shoe (or arm bracket however you might call it). Also it's very useful if your model can have armset pivot unscrewed and then disconnected. Furthermore you might wanna think about changing the preload tension. Adjust the arm's length. Or even attach the armset to the pivot on the door closer body at a different angle, but I'm not sure how many positions your model would have, it's possible there are only 2, which won't be your solution then.

Thanks for this we got a door in the lobby slamming so hard it could easily slice a hard hat in half and everyone just tolerates it, not me problem solved.

do you have video on eletric door closer we have a latch issue can you help

I have a very old door closer, I need to adjust it but Don’t know how

My daughter's apartment door opens out and has a hydraulic closer. Is there a way to jam it from the inside for extra security? ty

Enjoyed your explanation. Especially about fluid. Should I be concerned if BC valve got overly loose, fell out and lost fluid?

Can I set the door closer so the sweep is zero (door won’t start closing) but increase the latch speed? Basically I’ll swing the door myself, and just want the closer to activate in the last 15 degrees or so?

how to adjust to hold it open i need to keep my door open as i drive my wheel chair thru the doorway. then grab the handle and tug it to then let the closer do its job of closing the door. but i have to be able to open it and have it stay open until i close it myself. also i have to mount it between the inside door and the storm door and use it for the storm door how will this work for the cold temps thanks

Thank you!

Thanks nice video

Love the green screen background

What if the door is heavy to open can the pressure be adjusted?

Thank you for your important video but my door is rubbing to upper side how to adjust this peoblem

What about a door with good speed but the lower half tapers away from the jamb and leaves a gap? Any way to adjust that?

thank you very much for the video.....I've been trying to get the door to not slam when opening and closing...this fixed my problem

Is the power adjustment basically just modifying the spring preload?

wish he would talk to my landlord

Nice video

I would like to know if the temperature could affect the door closer ? My problem is that in the summer everything works well and then in the winter the exterior door closer doesn't work as well. So my Question "Does the hydraulic oil in the closer get thicker and not flow as well as in summer conditions"?

Any one tel me how to soft open a door closer

Thanks

What about the door being very stiff to open. Don't hear anyone mentioning any adjustment for that problem. My installer said there is no adjustment. for this....True?

I just wish you had gotten closer to the closer so I could see which holes you were working with.

I thought the backcheck was designed to also stop the door opening too quickly in high winds? Your setting just seems to be about limiting how far it opens.

What are you doing man , only you is there we are not able to see the door lock and the procedure

I bet they used red thread locker and thats why heating them up allowed them to come off.

What happened......I feel asleep 🙄🙄🙄

This would be a great video if you didn’t point with all five fingers to prove you are tuff
