This is the most common method of fixing a door closer. The door closer is fixed to the hinge side of the door (the side on which you can see the knuckle of the hinges when the door is closed). The door closer is attached to the door and the arm is attached to the frame above.

Fixing a door closer in figure 61  application

Figure 61 fixing - PUSH Side (or Opposite hinge side of door)

With this fixing method the door closer is attached to the frame with the arm attached to the door. For this fixing method the door closer is fitted to the opposite hinge side (the side the hinge knuckles cannot be seen when the door is closed). Normally used for outward opening external doors where the door closer needs to be inside the building to protect it from vandalism and the weather.

This fixing method is also known as parallel arm fixing and uses the parallel arm bracket that comes comes with all our standard arm overhead door closers (except the Geze TS1000). The door closer is fitted to the opposite hinge side (the side the hinge knuckles cannot be seen when the door is closed). The door closer is attached to the door and the parallel arm bracket is fitted underneath the door frame head. The arm is then attached to the parallel arm bracket.
