Doromatic Door Closers
Falcon door closers (some previously known as Dor-O-Matic closers) are a reliable standard template closer that can be used on any style of door. However, Falcon door closers were designed especially for narrow-framed aluminum storefront doors.
All Falcon door closers are designed for mounting on frames with a minimum of 1-¾ inches. Falcon door closers can be mounted in three different ways on most commercial doors. Install your Falcon door closer on the push door side, on the pull door side or as a top jamb mount.
You can easily purchase your Falcon door closers and parts from our website if you know that you are ready to install them onto some commercial doors. Our team will help you find the Falcon door closer, opener or other parts that are required in order to make the proper changes to your door.
Falcon Door Closers Manufacturer
The Falcon company originally started under the name Dor-O-Matic which was founded around 1955 in Chicago, Illinois. Back then, the bulk of the products that they produced were pivots and closers designed specifically for storefront doors.
The manufacturer was best known for their production of several items such as their overhead closers, offset pivot sets and automatic openers. They began production of their widely respected panic devices in the 60’s.
Dor-O-Matic has undergone changes and had a few different owners over the course of the years. It wasn’t until 2007 that the Dor-O-Matic and Monarch brands were grouped together and put under the new name Falcon. Like many other commercial door security brands that we distribute a number of products from, the Falcon brand is now an Allegion company.
If you currently have a Dor-O Matic closer or you need to replace your old one, you can find the products you need under our Falcon door closers category. The selection of products on our Falcon door closers category page ranges from closers and openers to closer arms.

The SC60A Falcon Door Closer is UL approved and designed to meet the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) specifications. The SC60A is a dependable closer for buildings such as certain office complexes that require up to medium-duty closer power.
Falcon SC70A Series – The SC70A Falcon Door Closer Series was once known as the Falcon SC71 Door Closer, the SC70, and the Dor-O-Matic Door Closer SC71. This Falcon door closer series has adjustable power, closing, latching and backcheck, plus a heat-treated steel piston and pinion. It also has a cast aluminum body that is all one piece.
The Falcon SC70A Series is also designed to meet the ADA specifications and is UL listed. This particular item matches the hole spacing of the Norton 7500, the Yale 4400 and the LCN 4050 Closers, making it a cost-effective replacement for these closers. The SC70A is a heavy-duty Grade 1 Falcon door closer for installation in institutional buildings with a lot of traffic.
Falcon SC80A Series – The SC80A Series Falcon Door Closer is similar to the previous items in that it has a cast aluminum body that is one-piece. It also similarly includes adjustable power, closing, latching and backcheck and a heat-treated steel piston and pinion.

This is the lightest-duty closer offered by The Falcon (Dor-O-Matic) manufacturers. It should only be used on smaller, less travelled interior doors. The SC90A Series has a Grade 3 rating, which is the lowest possible rating. However, this indicates that it is the ideal fit to be installed in residential buildings.
Falcon OHC100 Series – The OHC100 Series features cast iron construction with adjustable closing and latching speeds. This is an ideal replacement for the Jackson 20-330 Overhead Concealed Closers. You can often find this closer on aluminum framed glass storefront doors.
