Components:
• It is recommended that the door be hung on ball bearing type hinges so door swings freely.
• A separate door stop (supplied by others) is recommended to prevent damage to the door closer, closer arm, the door, frame or adjacent walls.
• Door and frame must be properly reinforced or through bolts used to prevent the mounting screws from pulling out.
