Quieter door closing with Close-Motion®
Every building needs doors: offices, schools, universities, hospitals, homes, hotels and pretty much everywhere else. Yet doors can also become a nuisance. The force needed to shut automatically and tight – essential for fire protection, security, energy efficiency and more – also creates noise that can affect the well-being of every building user.
With Close-Motion® door closers, peace returns when people really need it, for working, learning, relaxing, recovering or sleeping.
How it works
A door closer fitted with Close-Motion® technology quickly closes the door up to a small gap, then softly dampens and pulls it slowly, quietly and securely – to shut tight.
Close-Motion® technology combines safety, accessibility, and convenience within a single component – fully and discreetly integrated into the door closer housing.
Close-Motion benefits
- Fast, quiet and reliable closing of single- and double-leaf doors
- Optimum damping before final closing minimizes the risk of trapped fingers, reduces noise and prevents door or frame damage
- Proper closing even with sealing pressure, wind pressure, draughts or suction – increasing security and minimizing energy waste
- Easy installation and retrofitting with no need for structural modification or regular readjustments
- Attractive, low-profile design due to Close-Motion’s complete integration into the door closer housing
Minimum installation effort
With Close-Motion® technology, the need for regular readjustment is over!
Closing speed – as well as backcheck and latching action – can be configured independently in just a few steps during installation. And thanks to the soft damping and gentle closing action of the door, you won’t need to make any adjustments later.
Compatible accessories such as an invisible mounting plate also help with quick and convenient installation and retrofitting.
Versatile applications
Close-Motion® is suited to a wide range of applications. Everywhere it has been deployed, the technology’s optimized motion sequence ensures quiet and secure closing.
Commercial properties such as hotels
In hotels and other hospitality settings, Close-Motion® not only brings peace and quiet, but also pleasant, convenient self-closing. The risk of fingers becoming trapped is minimized, too.
Apartment and multi-housing buildings
Open windows and tilted doors cause hallway draughts and make doors slam loudly. Close-Motion® technology brings pleasant quiet and positively impacts a building’s energy efficiency.
Public buildings such as hospitals
A quiet environment can be critical in hospitals, for both patients and staff. With Close-Motion®, doors to wards, therapy rooms and common areas close gently and noisy spots are isolated.
