FAQs

Can I install this on a fire-rated door?

Yes, but ensure your installation complies with local fire safety regulations regarding self-closing devices.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will typically need a drill, a screwdriver set, a tape measure, and a level to ensure the closer is mounted parallel to the door.

Is the Eclipse Overhead Door Closer reversible?

Yes, the unit is designed to be mounted on both left-hand and right-hand opening doors.

How often should I lubricate the door closer?

The internal hydraulic mechanism is sealed and does not require lubrication. You should focus on keeping the door hinges clear of debris and well-lubricated.

Does it come with mounting hardware?

Yes, the unit includes the necessary hardware for standard mounting applications.

Troubleshooting

The door slams shut at the end of the swing.

Adjust the latching speed valve by turning it clockwise to slow down the final closing motion.

The door is closing too slowly.

Turn the sweep speed valve counter-clockwise to increase the closing speed.

Oil is leaking from the closer unit.

If the unit is leaking oil, the internal seals have failed. The unit is a sealed system and will need to be replaced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper installation is critical for the Eclipse Overhead Door Closer. Begin by identifying the correct mounting position based on your door's swing direction. Ensure all mounting screws are tightened into a solid surface; if installing on hollow metal doors, use through-bolts or reinforcing plates. Once installed, use the adjustment screws on the unit to calibrate the sweep and latch speeds to your preference. For care, inspect the mounting hardware every six months to ensure no screws have loosened due to door vibration. If the door closes too quickly or stalls, adjust the hydraulic valves in small increments—never force the screws beyond their natural stopping point.
