Product Description

A Yale door closer is a robust and reliable hydraulic device designed to automatically close a door after it has been opened, ensuring safety and enhancing the door’s durability. Engineered with superior technology, Yale door closers provide the utmost safety for your home or office and help keep your door functioning properly for a longer time. Whether you need a solution for a busy office door or a quiet residential room, Yale offers a range of closers, from surface-mounted to concealed models, to suit various applications and aesthetic preferences.

What are the different types of Yale door closers available?

The Surface Mounted Door Closer is popular for its quick and easy installation, requiring minimal preparation on the door and frame. It is designed with an adjustable arm height and opening angle, making it flexible for various mounting types and space limitations. For a cleaner look, the Concealed Door Closer stays virtually invisible when the door is closed, keeping the interior design pure and clean. It utilizes efficient cam action technology and has a built-in power adjustment mechanism.

How does a Yale door closer work and is it easy to install?

Yale door closers typically use a rack and pinion mechanism for smooth and efficient operation. They feature adjustable closing speed and latching speed, allowing you to control how the door closes. The closing speed is controlled via valves, with one valve adjusting the main swing and the other controlling the final latch action. Installation is generally straightforward for standard surface-mounted models and comes with a complete installation manual and template for Regular Arm, Top Jamb, or Parallel Arm mounting. Yale closers are non-handed, suitable for both left and right-handed doors.
