Reliable door closers from GEZE
From the series "Windows, doors, fittings, covers—trends 2023"

GEZE overhead door closers are a wide range of products for every type of door. From simple locales to heavy entry doors, emergency exit doors and specialized doors used in various locations such as hospitals, hotels and airports.

GEZE offers door closers of various shapes, with customized settings and applications, for example, for fire and smoke doors. The type and applicability of the appropriate door closer depends on the specific requirements and its purpose such as the type and size of the door, the weight of the leaf, the material, the width of the door and where it is installed.

In addition, it is necessary to consider whether the door closer is to function in an indoor or outdoor area, in a wet or dry room, in high or low temperatures. A one-size-fits-all door closer will not meet all expectations and will not be suitable for all types of doors.

A door closer, in the big picture, is something like a spring that takes care of the closing of the door.

To keep the door from slamming, the spring is equipped with an oil damper. Thanks to the combination of these two mechanisms, the door closer works in accordance with the requirements of the specialized standard EN 1154. The selection of a door closer for a door is based on matching its parameters and the functionality of the door.

The reliability of the door closer solution means increased comfort and convenience of passage and safety in the building. It is also fire protection, protection against persistent noise, energy savings and increased hygiene.

Why use door closers—the most important reasons:

Security: closed doors protect against unauthorized access, burglary and theft.
Fire protection: building regulations require fire doors, not only in public buildings or underground parking lots, but also in homes or hotel rooms. Their purpose is to stop fire hazards from entering and spreading smoke and fire to other rooms (these types of fire closers must close independently).
Noise protection: closed doors protect against loud noise.
Indoor climate and energy saving: closed doors protect against weather conditions (cold or heat), drafts and heat loss.
Hygiene: closed doors protect against dirt. Self-closing doors do not need to be touched to close. They are therefore particularly useful where there is a high probability of transferring bacteria and germs to hands: for example, in hospitals or public restrooms.
Private area: closed doors protect our privacy.
Convenience: self-closing doors are practical and convenient for everyone, especially children, the elderly and people with limited mobility.

For many years, GEZE has been associated with door closers. We have a wide range of door closer models to suit the requirements and expectations of each customer. We have a trained team of experts who will help select a device to meet individual needs.
