Sargent 1431 HT Powerglide® Door Closer | Pull Side Hold Open Track Arm
The Sargent 1431 HT Door Closer is a high-performance, heavy-duty solution designed for architects and facility managers who demand both low-profile aesthetics and reliable functionality. Part of the renowned Powerglide® series, the 1431 HT features a Pull Side Track Arm with Hold Open, which mounts the track on the frame face to eliminate the "elbow" of traditional projecting arms. This sleek design is perfect for high-traffic corridors in hospitals, schools, and office buildings where preventing vandalism and maintaining a modern appearance are top priorities.
Engineered with a one-piece 14% silicon aluminum alloy body, this ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 closer provides industrial-strength durability. It includes an adjustable friction hold-open mechanism within the track, allowing the door to be secured at a specific angle for high-frequency transitions or moving equipment. The 1431 HT is pre-filled with all-weather hydraulic fluid, ensuring consistent door control in extreme temperatures without the need for manual seasonal adjustments.
Architectural Grade Performance & Security
- Sleek Track Design: The extruded aluminum track and forged steel arm with a bearing roller provide a smooth opening experience and a streamlined look that blends into modern interiors.
- Variable Hold Open: The HT track arm includes an adjustable holder that allows you to set the door to remain open at your desired angle, increasing convenience for busy doorways.
- Industrial Strength Piston: A massive 1-1/2" diameter piston ensures superior hydraulic control and longevity, exceeding 25 million cycles in testing.
- Tamper-Resistant Valves: Separate brass valves for closing speed, latching speed, and backcheck are adjusted via an 1/8" Allen wrench and are captivated to prevent unauthorized removal.
- Safety Certified: UL/cUL listed for use on fire-rated doors (up to 3 hours) and compliant with UL10C and UBC positive pressure standards.
