Often, where coordinators are used in conjunction with surface overhead door closers to the stop face (push side) of pairs of doors, additional brackets must be introduced. MB brackets allow stop mounted hardware, such as a door closer PA (parallel arm) shoe or the top latch strike of a surface vertical rod escape device, to be properly installed without damaging the COR coordinator.
Stop mounted hardware is lowered necessarily to compensate for the depth of the coordinator and the ‘wrap-around’ mounting bracket.
- Allows stop mounted hardware to be properly installed without damaging the COR coordinator, such as a parallel arm closer or a surface vertical rod strike
- Stop mounted hardware will need to be lowered to compensate for the height of the coordinator and mounting bracket
- MB mounting brackets are made of aluminium
Best suited to heavy duty situations on perimeter and internal doors where security is important.
Coordinators should be specified for use on all rebated pairs of doors where door closers are controlling both leaves and where it is possible to open either leaf independently or both leaves simultaneously. Doors of this type, not controlled with coordinators, have the potential to close in the incorrect order, leaving one door slightly ajar and (usually) both doors insecure (i.e. unlocked). In particular, exterior (or perimeter) doors, fitted with escape hardware, are vulnerable if they double as access control doors and are necessarily equipped with door closers*.
* Doors fitted with surface overhead door closers require special attention ensuring that the two types of hardware do not clash or impede one another in their normal operation.
