The new closer – part of the ARRONE range of hardware designed and manufactured by HOPPE inhouse – is the ultimate in-door closer versatility-perfect for high frequency commercial and public buildings, suited to regular and transom mounting, and suitable for fire doors, with the appropriate hardware and intumescents. HOPPE UK has launched the ARRONE 7383 concealed closer in response for increasing demand from specifiers who want a reliable, cam action closer without the sometimes unappealing visual metalwork so apparent with conventional overhead closers. For hospitals, nursing homes, schools and other public buildings, the ARRONE 7383 is the ideal choice to avoid the institutional look of many doors while ensuring reliability, safety and security. As an added bonus, concealed closers are much less vulnerable to attack, vandalism and theft.

It can be used on doors up to 1100mm wide, 80kg in weight and 40mm thick with a fully adjustable closing speed and latching action to take account of surrounding conditions, use, and other hardware
