Dorma BTS 75V

Today I was called out to problems with doors mounted on to  Dorma BTS 75 V's. The problem turned out not to be the closers themselves, the doors had split allowing the screws to come loose that held the straps in place beneath the door. We removed the kick plates, glued and bolted the doors back together again, re-fixed the straps and then remounted the doors on to the pivots, adjusting as necessary.

Hello there, I know these are moden day floorsprings and like the old guys, can run into problems.

there are times I wish I could fix the pair at the doctor I go to, his, the one will "dance" in the floor box and not center the door to the frame stop.

last time I was there, I suggested they make them double acting, to allow for independent access into waiting from from the hallway by wheelchair/walker users (push open with chair or walker)

first time I could make a suggestion and they agree to it and take action (doctor wrote note to self to call building management to ask them to remove stop block from frame)

    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.
