Why Using Norton Door Hardware

Norton traces its origins to 1880, when its founder developed the first practical commercial door closer in the United States. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Norton focuses on commercial-grade hardware: hydraulic and mechanical door closers, automatic door operators, exit devices, and robust locksets designed for frequent use, heavy traffic, and regulatory compliance. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

For businesses, multi-tenant buildings, retail stores, offices, or institutional properties in Richardson, Norton’s hardware offers reliability and longevity. Properly installed, these components ensure doors close smoothly, latch correctly, and meet fire and safety codes — essential for commercial and public-facing doors.

This commercial-grade durability often goes beyond what typical residential locksets provide, making Norton a strong choice when you want dependable performance rather than just basic home security. Its designs — from surface-mounted closers to low-energy automatic operators — cover a wide range of door types and use cases. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Norton Lock/Closer Maintenance & Rekey

While Norton is best known for door closers and operators, many systems also include lock cylinders or compatible hardware that can be re-pinned or re-keyed when access changes are needed. Our locksmith service in Richardson can inspect your existing Norton hardware — cylinders, strike plates, or closers — and perform rekeying or maintenance as required, restoring security and functionality without a full replacement.

Because Norton hardware is commercial-grade, maintenance sometimes requires specialized tools and knowledge. For example, adjusting hydraulic pressure, back-check tension, or re-seating the closer arm must be handled precisely to ensure smooth, safe operation — which our technicians are trained to do. We test every clos­er and lock after maintenance to verify proper closing force and latch engagement before we leave.

Exit Devices & Automatic Closers

Norton produces a wide range of door control products: surface-mounted closers, overhead concealed closers, electromechanical and low-energy operators, and exit devices with panic-bar or automatic opening options. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

For commercial buildings, multi-tenant properties, or public facilities — especially those subject to fire codes or accessibility standards — properly installed Norton exit hardware ensures safe, reliable egress and controlled entry. Whether you need a panic-bar exit device, an automatic door operator for ADA compliance, or a heavy-duty closer for frequent use entrances, our Norton hardware service handles the job with code-compliant, high-grade components.

Do It Yourself vs Professional Service

Although installing a basic door closer or lock may seem doable, Norton’s commercial-grade systems often involve precise alignment, correct hydraulic adjustments, proper mounting positions, and — in the case of electrified or automatic operators — wiring and safety compliance. Mistakes can lead to poor closing, door slamming, mis-latch, or even safety hazards. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Hiring a professional locksmith like us for Norton hardware ensures correct installation, proper hydraulics, secure lock cylinders, and compliance with fire or accessibility codes. We handle frame preparation, reinforcement if required, door alignment, and final testing so your doors operate reliably long-term. We also give you warranty and follow-up support — something DIY installs rarely offer.

Common Norton Products We Work With

Here are three frequently used Norton door-control products we install or service when performing Norton lock and hardware work in Richardson.

The 7500 Series offers a robust, surface-mounted hydraulic door closer suitable for interior or exterior doors — ideal for retail entrances, offices, or commercial doors needing reliable controlled closing. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Norton 6300 Low-Energy Door Operator

This low-energy automatic door operator enables hands-free or motion-sensor activated door opening and closing — valuable for accessibility compliance, commercial lobbies, or healthcare/office entrances. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

Norton Exit Device / Electric Strike + Cylinder Trim

A combination of exit device, electric strike, and compatible lock cylinders allows controlled entry from outside while ensuring safe egress with panic bar exit — a common setup for multi-tenant buildings, retail spaces, or public-facing doors in commercial properties. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Norton just door closers, or do they make locks too?

Norton is best known for door closers, exit devices, automatic door operators and door-control hardware — more than standard residential locksets. Their products are designed for commercial and institutional use, often paired with separate lock cylinders or strike hardware. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}

Can Norton hardware be used on residential doors?

Yes — some surface-mounted closers, cylinder trim sets or door-control parts may work on heavy residential or multi-family doors, but Norton hardware is typically optimized for commercial doors, heavier traffic, or institutional settings.

Do I need professional installation for a Norton closer or exit device?

Due to hydraulic adjustment, precise mounting, possible wiring (for operators), and safety code compliance, professional installation strongly recommended — especially for commercial or public-facing doors.

Will a Norton door closer still work in power outage (for automatic operator)?

Yes — many Norton closers are hydraulic/mechanical and do not depend on electricity; automatic or electromechanical operators may rely on power, but manual over-rides or bypass options are often available depending on hardware configuration. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}

Can you rekey a door that uses Norton hardware?

Yes — if the door uses a separate cylinder lock or compatible lockset in combination with the Norton hardware, we can re-pin or replace the cylinder as part of the service to renew access control.

How often should a door closer be serviced?

For heavy-use commercial doors, we recommend inspecting closers or exit devices every 12–24 months for smooth operation, proper latch, and hydraulic seal integrity — something we can include during routine service visits.

Do you provide documentation suitable for building compliance or inspection?

Yes. After any Norton hardware installation or maintenance, we supply documentation and hardware specifications so property owners or managers have a record for compliance, maintenance logs, or inspection requirements.
