Frequently Asked Questions
DORMA BTS extended spindle options
Extended spindles are used where additional height is required due to thicker floor finishes, raised thresholds, or non-standard installation depths.
Should I use a sealing compound?
Yes. The use of DORMA 2300 Sealing Compound prevents moisture penetration by filling cavities between the floor spring body and the cement box.
This is mandatory in certain applications such as wet rooms (for example, as required under VOB regulations).
Product code: DO2300
What is backcheck?
The integrated mechanical backcheck function protects the wall, frame and door from damage caused by excessively vigorous opening.
What is delayed action?
Delayed action slows the door closing speed for a short period, allowing easier passage for disabled persons, parents with prams, staff with trolleys, hospital beds or similar equipment.
What is hydraulic hold-open?
Hydraulic hold-open allows the door to be held open at any angle between 75° and 175°. The angle at which hold-open begins can be adjusted, typically within the 75° to 105° range.
What is meant by leaf weight?
Leaf weight refers to the total weight of the door leaf, including glass, framing and fittings. The floor spring must be selected to suit the actual door leaf weight, not just door width.
