- ADA compliant
System M+ FA NHO supports Universal Design principles with ADA-compliant door hardware: doors open with minimal force and close smoothly throughout the building.
- Door closing speed
The hinge meets the ADA-required closing speed: at least 5 seconds to close from 90° to 12°, per ICC A117.1-2017 (Chapter 404.2.7).
- Opening force
Opening the door takes no more than 5.0 lbs (22.2 N) of force, in compliance with ICC A117.1-2017 (Chapter 404.2.8).
Nothing in the ceiling, nothing in the floor
FritsJurgens builds the closer technology fully into the top and bottom of the door, so there is no complex floor installation. System M+ FA NHO offers the same benefits as the other System M+ models, plus full compliance with ADA guidelines for doors, door hardware and door closers.
