Customer Unit Repair and Exchange Service Program Details:
  • We feature two programs for handling your door closer repair and replacement needs.
  • Choosing our Repair Service is where you complete checkout through the website or over the telephone. We will email you the address to where your door closer body is to be sent to. Be sure to retain the tracking number of your shipment and ship the item(s) as Signature Required. We will receive the package, complete the repair and rebuild process and ship back the same model door closer. The door closer we send is usually not the exact unit you will ship to us. If you want us to return your exact unit, simply indicate this in the comment field. This usually adds 1-week to the shipping lead time.
  • Choosing our Exchange Service option will give you the opportunity to first buy the rebuilt item which will be shipped to you in 2 to 3 days. Once the original door closer is replaced, you can send the door closer (sometimes referred to as a "core") unit back where we offer a 40% core refund. The advantage of this program is that you do not have to completely take a door out of service while you wait for the repair work to be done. Once the order is placed for the Exchange, we ship this rebuilt door closer from our stock within 2 - 3 days. Once you receive the unit, you perform the swap and ship back the original door closer. Be sure to retain the tracking number of your shipment and ship the item(s) as Signature Required. Original door closer bodies, "cores", are to be sent back within 30 - days to qualify for the partial core refund.
  • All Rebuilt items are subjected to a Complete Tear Down process: rebuilt using all new parts and first cleaned with cooker soap in a process not unlike cleaning cast iron cookware. All new parts include new O rings, new oil, new paint, etc; and brought back to factory original performance and specifications.
  • Warranty: 1 year.
  • Generally our repair shop keeps rebuilt units on hand.
  • When sending your broken door closer unit, ship only the immediate item to be repaired. Keep all arms, plates, brackets and screws in your possession. Very Important to send back only the "core" and nothing else as those extraneous items cannot be returned.
  • For more information please see video below.

  • * if you are door closer is installed in a push side installation and you are not using a parallel arm bracket but you are using a corner bracket, see the link to the modern yale literature here: Download File
    Be sure to let us know because they handing of such a closer is the opposite hand from the hand of the door. When performing an exchange or repairing your door closer we very much need to know this information to ensure that you get the proper hand door closer returned to you.

Questions and Answers
Q: I received my door closer yesterday, but I am having a little trouble with it. Prior to me removing it and sending it in, the door closer would affirmatively return the door to a closed position. The issue with it prior to sending it in is that it would not stop the door until the last quarter of an inch or so risking people's fingers or pets getting crushed. I may have done something wrong, because now the door will no longer close on its own. Do I need to wind the door closer or something before I reinstall it? Thanks.
A: You will need a set of channel locks and click it just a couple of clicks. The direction you turn it depends on what hand the door is and if it is on a corner bracket.

Turn the Ratchet either direction when the door is in a closed position just a couple of clicks. Then open the door to see if you turned it the correct direction If you don’t tension, turn the ratchet in the opposite direction with the door closed then open the door and adjust the tension to your liking. If you put too much tension on it, you risk breaking the spring. And it doesn’t need to be too strong because of older people who are not as strong.

Remember, just 2 or 3 clicks in either direction will be enough.

Please report back to us your success.

Q: So would you suggest I remove the arm from the closer in order to properly "tune" the closer to the door? Any chance you have a video out there showing this process? Thanks!
A: Do not remove the arm.. Just wind the ratchet a couple of clicks and your off to the races.
