Models:

Glynn-Johnson 450 series holders and stops are designed for medium to light-duty applications. They’re ideal for openings that are subject to normal activity, providing protection for the door, frame, hinges and surrounding walls or obstructions.

Designed for improved compatibility with most door closers, all models incorporate popular channel/slide arm design and offset jamb brackets. The improved design makes it easier to change functions in the field, should user requirements change.

(Suffix S) When the Hold-Open function is not required, the Stop-Only function provides the same effective door control without keeping the door held open. The Stop-Only model may be used on fire doors.

• Application Information
• Closer Applications
• Glynn-Johnson 450 series models require minimal door and frame preparation. They may be used in conjunction with most surfaceapplied door closers. In some cases, optional drop brackets may need to be mounted on the closers. These brackets are available from the closer manufacturer.
• UL Classification
• The 450 series Stop-Only models are classified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) as Miscellaneous Fire Door Accessories. This classification applies to use on either Hollow Metal Fire Doors or Wood Fire Doors. These units may be used on doors of any rating. As a reminder, the Miscellaneous Fire Door Accessories (GVUX) section is defined by UL as: "Miscellaneous fire door accessories are intended in the individual Listings. The accessories have been investigated to determine that when installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, the accessories do not adversely affect the fire rating of the fire door and/or fire door frames."
• Dead Stop Templating:
• For situations where a wall or similar obstruction is in place at an opening angle of 110° or less (e.g. doors that open back-to-back), dead stop templating should be used. This includes all Hold-Open, Friction and Stop-Only models, except when the "SE" option is used. The Dead Stop position is reached when the shock-absorbing spring is fully compressed, allowing an initial degree of opening of 5° to 7° less than the Dead Stop opening.
• Example: If the holder is templated for 100° Dead Stop, the door will hold open somewhere between 93° to 95°, and no further than 100°.
• Note: Do not use dead-stop templating on the 450SE Series since there is no shock-absorbing spring.
• Environmental Condition:
• To assure a long operating life for holders and stops, consider the environment where they will be used. Doors that open to the exterior of a building or are subject to corrosive conditions should have a holder constructed primarily of stainless steel, brass or bronze materials. For interior doors, steel material may be acceptable, although brass and bronze substrates will provide a more attractive architectural grade finish.
• Heavy-Use Applications:
• Where doors and frames are subject to heavy use and abuse, a heavy-duty holder or stop should be considered. Also heavy-duty units should be considered on exterior doors subject to wind.
• Options:
• Suffix J (Angle Jamb Bracket):
• An additional option on the 450 Series is the Angle Jamb Bracket for hinge-side or flush transom mounting. The angle jamb bracket affixes to the standard jamb bracket. If ordered with the overhead add suffix J. If needed separately order 450J-Finish.
• Suffix SHIM (Blade Stop Shims):
• Shim kits are available in 3 sizes:
• 450 SHIM1 is a 3/16" Shim Kit
• 450 SHIM2 is a 3/8" Shim Kit
• 450 SHIM3 is a 9/16" Shim Kit
• If ordered with overhead, add suffix SHIM (1, 2 or 3). If needed separately order 450SHIM (1, 2 or 3)-Finish.
• Suffix SOC (Pin-in-Socket Security Screw Package):
• A screw package with pin-in-socket screws for mounting the channel to the door and the jamb bracket to the frame is provided instead of the standard screw package.
