When using our TA-35 PVC casing, why can’t you use our TA-10 regular arm closer reinforcement and which closer reinforcement would you use?

Our TA-10 regular arm reinforcement is too thick and the casing will not snap onto the clip. We have modified the TA-10 making it thinner. The product number for this reinforcement is TA-10A.

If a customer wants to use a concealed closer with our frame, what is the best recommendation?

The easiest solution is to use a closer concealed in the door with the arm channel mortised into the header. Another option is to use a floor closer, using pivots to hang the door. We do not recommend an overhead concealed closer mounted in the frame header since there is insufficient space to install the closer.
