Briton C door closer

On Christmas Eve despite having a bulging disc in my back (which is very painful) bought about by undoing over tightened screws from the previous Saturday at the Royal Star and Garter Home, I provided and fitted an original cast iron Briton C at the Birmingham based MG Physiotherapist Practice.

The Practice is led by Michael Garmston, former head physiotherapist to the British Athletic Olympic teams Barcelona 1992, Atlanta 1996 and Sydney 2000.

The Briton C was fitted to the inner entrance door of the Grade 2 listed Georgian property that Michael and his Team practice from.

As can be seen from the pictures this is a large door, even the Briton C looks small against it and it was in fact debated if a Briton D may have been required, the D was eventually and obviously deemed to be unnecessary as the pictures show. It should be noted however that due to the previous installation it was decided to position the C slightly off from the normal siting position so that it utilises the existing mounting holes (Jess ; ) ).

This in no way affects the actual performance of this medium to heavy weight performer!

For those interested this is a shot to show the comparative size ratio between some of the Briton range.

    As there is so little information out there with regard to door closers, especially vintage and antique model floor springs, I thought I would start this blog.
