    Once you mount the closer to the door jamb use a level on top of the closer, before mounting bracket on the door, will work better and last longer.

    Rarely do I watch a "how to video" like this that is clearly understood and I didn't have to watch it again and again. This guy wasn't out to impress anyone with the bells and whistles. Just the things you need to do to install the closer. From 0-10, I give him a 12.

    Good video. I have even more previous holes to deal with so I bought a metal plate at Home Depot to cover them up. Don't know if it will work because the screws to attach it might be in the way. Unfortunately a bird flew into the lanai enclosure and I'm waiting for him to leave before I proceed (my projects never go smoothly...well at least 80% of them). I also don't think the door should slam shut like that, but this should be an easy adjustment.

    No, put the end with the hold open washer (right end side in the video) in and put the pin in. Now put the other in and pin it... That's all that you should have to do... You may have to pull on the unit (shock) to get the rod out enough to put the pin in...

  • @willbelasco
    @willbelasco3 жыл бұрын

    I have a screen door that has a lot of tension when opening, and retracts quickly before slowly down with the pneumatic pump. once the pump regulates the door close, it works as expected, slow and fully closes. so it’s annoying to open because it takes a significant amount of strength and slams back at you. any suggestions? i figure i may just need to get a new closer.

  • @ctoczycki

    @ctoczycki

    3 жыл бұрын

    If you have a heavy duty closer it may be exerting too much force. Try a standard duty closer. They require less force. There's no adjustment that will reduce the tension. Some older closers could be turned to adjust - you may want to try that. Also, the installation instructions should explain that the adjustment screw should be used to prevent the door from slamming and from closing too slowly. The adjustment screw does not help close the door further. In order to make certain that the door closes completely, the closer needs to be attached to the door so that it has some pull when you insert the pin.

    My suggestion is to use a level on the line between the mount points - to make it look good and work better. when it's at a slight angle like you installed it, it gets less force from the pneumatic. And it looks trashy.

    John Wang Because during installation your supposed to pull the piston rod out about an 1 1/2 inch and put the locking washer on to hold it in place. Then mark you holes to install brackets. That way when it pulls closed it has tension all the way to the closed position.
