In the architectural innovation, the essence of thoughtful design often appear in the most unexpected details. The door closer back check function, which relies on valve hydraulic action, prevents slamming while closing the door, controls opening, and minimizes potential damage to the wall and nearby objects. It also allows for adjustable delayed action to help slow down the door’s swing and add an extra layer of safety.

Stainless Steel Door Stoop

Unlike traditional door closers, Waterson, provides an integrated stainless steel door stop to achieve the same purpose as backcheck. This door stop is physically attached to the closer barrel to stop the door at 85(o), making it both durable and highly effective.  You can easily install the door stop yourself at any time after purchase by simply adding the part.  However, if installed at the factory, we will fix it to the door closer with screws and weld it for greater durability. Factory welded is particularly useful for commercial applications like schools, hospitality, and hotels, to name a few.

Heavy-duty & Low Maintenance

If some violent and unusual activities take place at a school, the screws attaching the barrel may come loose. However, Waterson door closers own a strong and durable stainless steel material, which is very hard to break. With minimal effort, you can easily replace the loose screws with appropriate ones and quickly resolve the issue.
