DRIWON DN-8220
Heavy Duty Commercial Door Closer

DN-8220 Specifications

Where the DN-8220 Fits Best

The DN-8220 is the versatile choice for commercial interiors that need Grade 1 durability without the weight of a cast iron body: office suites, retail, clinics, hotels' guest corridors, light industrial and heavy-duty interior residential doors. Because it has a backcheck, it protects the door and wall when a door is thrown open.

• Office buildings and corporate corridors
• Retail stores and malls
• Healthcare facilities
• Light industrial and utility doors

For extreme abuse, very frequent cycling or heavy exterior doors, choose the DN-9500 extra heavy duty closer.

Installation and Adjustment Tips

1. Confirm door weight, width, handing and whether it is a rated door.
2. Mount the closer on the door's push or pull side with the parallel arm bracket supplied.
3. Set power size so the door closes fully and latches.
4. Adjust closing speed, latch speed, delay and backcheck.
5. Check ADA opening force and sweep time.

Under the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design (section 404), interior hinged doors must open with no more than 5 lbf, and a closer must be adjusted so the door takes at least 5 seconds to swing from 90° to 12° from the latch. Fire doors are the exception on opening force: the authority having jurisdiction sets the minimum. Always check local code and your AHJ.
