Laundry Chute Closer – Roto Style – Linen Door Rotary Hydraulic

This Laundry Chute Closer or sometimes called a Roto or Rotary hydraulic spring is ideally used for all side hinged doors. It is commonly used in the chute industry with different sized doors from 15 x 15, 18 x 18, 21 x 18, 21 x 21, and 24 x 24.

Although this closer is used frequently in heavy duty situations like the chute industry, it is also commonly used with light doors including storm door closer situations, cabinets, interior screen doors, and metal storage compartments.

This roto closer is also fully reversible and can work for both right and left hand including indoor lightweight storm doors. The function of this part is to automatically have your door close as it is fully retractable.

USAGE & SIZE OF ROTO CLOSER:

Hotels often benefit from such a closer as well when used on their doors. Because the closer allows the door to open completely at 180º, and allows for large laundry disposals.

The measurements are approximately 3-3/4  inches (95 millimeters) high from the very top to bottom of this closer, 1-3/4 inches (44.5 millimeters) wide, and 2-1/4 inches (57.2 millimeters) deep.

NOTE / WARNING:

This closer really works well, but the installation can be tricky if done casually. You have to be very precise with your efforts. Customer’s experiences varied based on the efforts of the installer. We use this closer on our rubbish and linen side hinged chute doors and it functions perfectly. ALSO: Rarely but sometimes these hydraulics are fabricated with excess silicone. If you experience visible oil in your package, it is not from inside the hydraulic cylinder. You can use this part safely after wiping off the excess oil. Additionally, the Silicone meets Proposition 65 and is not considered cacogenic.
