Norton 5241 Low Energy Door Operator — 5200 Series Universal Push & Pull
The Norton 5241 is a low energy automatic door operator from Norton's 5200 Series, designed for commercial applications where hands-free or assisted door operation is required. This universal unit accommodates both push and pull door configurations on a single platform, making it one of the more versatile low-energy operators in its class. The 5241 ships in Finish 689 (Aluminum) and is backed by Norton's 2-year warranty covering the 5200 Series low-energy operator line.
Key Features & Benefits
- Universal Push and Pull Operation: A single operator handles both push-side and pull-side mounting, reducing the need for separate units and simplifying procurement for multi-door projects.
- Included Arm Package: Comes with a standard duty arm and slide track, plus a low ceiling double lever arm — providing installation flexibility where overhead clearance is limited.
- Maximum Door Capacity: Rated for doors up to 200 lb and 48 inches wide, suitable for a broad range of standard commercial door sizes.
- Low Energy Classification: Operates as a low energy operator, meaning the door moves at a controlled, reduced speed in compliance with accessibility-focused design requirements — appropriate for ADA-accessible entryways where a fully automatic (high-energy) operator is not required or permitted.
- 2-Year Warranty: Norton's warranty coverage applies to the 5200 Series, providing documented protection on parts and workmanship.
- Finish 689 — Aluminum: A durable, commercially appropriate finish that coordinates well with aluminum door frames and storefront systems commonly found in commercial and institutional buildings.
- 1 Business Day Lead Time: Available for fast fulfillment — critical for contractors and facility managers working against tight schedules.
Typical Applications
The Norton 5241 is well-suited for:
- ADA-accessible entrances in offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and government buildings
- Interior and exterior commercial doors requiring low energy automatic operation
- Renovation and retrofit projects where a universal operator simplifies replacement
- Locations with limited overhead clearance where the low ceiling double lever arm is needed
