MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS

D O O R A N D F R A M E

• Every 3-4 weeks, the following items should be lubricated with STP Spray Silicone to insure the hardware

functions properly:

1. Door and Frame Pivots

2. Lock Cylinders

3. Exit Device (Panic) Hardware (fig. 3 pg. 31)

4. Closer Arm

• The following items need to be checked regarding the door closer:

1. Check/Adjust the Sweep Range, Latch Range, and the Back Check. This adjustment is made by

turning the Valves on the end of the closer. The “S” valve = Sweep, the “L” valve = Latch, and the

“BC” valve = Back Check.

2. Check and tighten all loose screws on the closer arm and closer unit.

• Proper clearances are essential for proper operation of doors installed. Reference the installation of door

and exit device (panic) hardware installation instructions.

• Chemicals used to melt ice should not come in contact with aluminum threshold, bottom of door jambs or

pivot hardware. These chemicals are very corrosive and may cause door failure and possible personal injury.
