I need a door closer that is able to close a steel door which is 400kg in weight. The door size is w1000mm x h2050mm.

We recommend looking at a Geze TS4000 tandem (power 7-13), or a TS4000 power 5-7, and caution that this door will be very heavy to open.  You can buy them online here, follow the links in the text.

I am looking for a door closer for our fire door that goes from utility room to the integral garage, currently it operates with a spring loaded device (not adjustable) that slams the door shut with a big bang. Can you recommend a door closer which would close the door without slamming it shut?

The door closer we would recommend for your scenario would be the Geze TS4000.  It is fully adjustable in power size, so you’ll be able to set it up to operate exactly as you want it, and it’s easy to … Continue reading

I have brought 2 closers from my local DIY centre but they do not fit due to the narrow bit at the top. What do you recommend?

A: There are two possible solutions; Option 1.) Using a door closer with a Drop Plate, e.g. the Geze TS2000NVBC (which is a really good mid-range, mid-price model) – the drop plate (shown above) allows the body to be set lower … Continue reading
