Accentra 2721T Grade 1 Heavy-Duty Door Closer with Thumbturn Hold Open Arm

The Accentra 2721T Heavy Duty Door Closer (formerly the Yale 2700 Series) is a high-intent, architectural-grade hardware solution engineered for high-traffic commercial environments that demand both extreme durability and user-controlled flexibility. This specialized model features a Heavy-Duty Rigid Parallel Arm with an integrated Thumbturn Hold Open mechanism. Unlike standard friction hold-open closers, the 2721T allows facility managers or staff to manually engage or disengage the hold-open function with a simple turn of the thumbturn located directly on the arm, providing superior control over building traffic flow and ventilation.

Precision-engineered to meet and exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 requirements, the 2721T is housed in a rugged, high-strength cast-aluminum body protected by a sleek, professional full cover. Whether managing a school, hospital, or busy retail entrance, this closer delivers the smooth, dependable performance required for long-term safety and code compliance.

Advanced Door Control & Manual Flexibility

• Integrated Thumbturn Hold Open: The specialized rigid arm includes a manual thumbturn, allowing the door to be locked in an open position for deliveries or high-volume pedestrian traffic and easily released when security or climate control is required.
  
• Fully Adjustable Spring Power (Sizes 1–6): The adjustable spring tension allows for a custom fit on a wide variety of openings. It can be tuned down for ADA accessibility on interior doors or increased to handle heavy exterior perimeter doors subject to wind and pressure.
  
• Triple Valve Precision Control: Features three independent, non-critical adjustment valves to customize Closing Speed, Latching Speed, and Backcheck. The Backcheck feature is vital for cushioning the door during a forceful opening cycle, protecting the arm and the adjacent wall.
  
• Grade 1 Industrial Strength: Rigorously tested for over a million cycles, ensuring structural integrity and consistent rack-and-pinion operation in the most demanding commercial settings.
• Non-Handed Design: The universal design simplifies the ordering process and job-site installation by fitting both left and right-hand door swings without modification.

Professional Installation & Secure Mounting

The Accentra 2721T is designed for a permanent, high-strength "sandwich" style attachment. To ensure the hardware remains secure on hollow metal, wood, or aluminum storefront doors—especially in high-abuse areas—this unit is shipped standard with a complete set of thru bolts. This heavy-duty mounting solution ensures the closer will not pull away from the door over time, maintaining the structural integrity of the opening.
