The inner doors are the same, and the left outer door is about the same as well. The right outer door though appears to have leaked more and is doing slightly worse than before. Eventually, this closer will run out of oil too. Thanks for watching!

Very awesome video
I feel very very door
A 6 hour comp of MHS doors being opened and closed is the one thing I didn’t think I would watch lol
Thanks for watching! Did you actually watch it all?
@@interestingmechanics Yes, I have.
❤أختراع رااائع ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😅😅😅😊😊😊
What is the point?
People like these so I film them
@@interestingmechanics good job, keep it up and don't let anyone deter you from your freedoms .
@@thtblkdude2827 Thanks
Always liked the hisses the LCNs make. Planning to mount one regular arm on my bedroom door.
Thanks!
Never seen an LCN not close the door all the way
Those are fake LCNs (as in a foreign ripoff), no need to worry, the real LCNs don't let you adjust it slow enough to not close
That door was locked up in the beginning maybe?
It was just stuck, common issue with these top latching doors. Thanks for commenting!
New subscriber
Thanks!
I like the old push bars.
Agreed
Nice closing speed(after adjust) I do this before at school, teacher saw it then take my screwdriver away,bruh.
Nice, thanks for watching!
Hell yeah
Thanks
The Algorithm really said “He will watch anything at this point”
People are so brain rotted these days, thanks for watching! Context to this video is that there are people interested in door closers so I post these videos for people who are interested. Sometimes youtube pushes my shorts to people who may not understand them, so yeah.
Closes really nicely!
Thanks! Get ready for some new fun videos about fixing doors!
Cool door closer I have 3 door closers but none of mine are mounted
Thanks! Love your videos by the way
@@interestingmechanics thanks
Nice to see the hinge is still holding up well. You did an great job fixing it.
Thanks!!
wow some off those fire doors would be classed as FAIL for fire risk assements us UK we take our fire safety strictly and those doors need sorting before they lose there insurence on those fire doors. BECOUSE THAT WOULD BE CLASSED AS Fail but good video though We use allot off fire seal strips as well in our fire doors and on those doors i see none at all. wich is concerning. but as long as the Fire risk assessor in that school if you have one knows than he is abit out off sort lol
Thanks for Commenting! The doors are still good for fire prevention but may be dirty or scuffed up. The hitting the frame isn't too much of an issue and doesn't really need addressed until loose hinges get worse. The one that doesn't latch on its own I hope I will fix eventually because nobody else will fix it.
The school has alot of doors with loose hinges lol
Yup! that's what happens when you have doors that haven't been serviced since the wing was built. The hold open one that hits the frame is actually a door jamb issue and not a loose hinge because it's too close to the frame and hits the frame when latching. The rest of them are loose hinge issues though. Thanks for commenting!
What is going on
It's a video of a door closer because there is actually people interested in these. Thanks for commenting and not being rude because I get a lot of rude comments!
Slider arm does not mean cam action, cam action refers to the parts inside the hydraulic body of the closer, this is just a 8900 (rack and pinion closer) with a slider arm
Sorry for the mistake, I edited like 30 videos this day and I didn't pay attention, changing now
An ACTUAL unique cam action closer will be coming out soon!
I love it! 💓
Super nice my friend! I love how each door opens up differently. You really only see doors like that in hospitals. I also love the high quality Dorma hardware.
Thank you!
Ummmmmmmm ???????????????
There's people with the interest of door hardware if you were curious.

Seriously? Next time maybe just do a short of paint drying
If you don't understand the content then please move on and don't leave negative comments.
@@interestingmechanics fair enough.
@@nicholasmcgreevy8313 Thanks for understanding!
Sheesh that first door is worse than D25 before the repair
Yeah.. sadly it's on the frame and it's metal so it's a lot harder to anchor back
@@interestingmechanics I guess it would be best to redo every hinge at that point
@@hollowspike2337 Well these doors are quite stupid because they only have 2 screws in the frame so they get loose easier
@@interestingmechanics ah that makes sense
Why not post a video of paint drying!
If you don't understand this content, then don't watch it.
Um...ok...good luck with that
Huh?
Amazing here is another door closer account here👈
You are basically my twin!!!! Do you have Snapchat?
I don't use snapchat but I have discord or telegram
@@interestingmechanics Can I have your discord brother?
@@BraxtonGreeneAdventures--removed after for privacy reasons-- feel free to friend me
@@interestingmechanics Yeah definitely but I’m on trash school WiFi and I have to download discord so I will definitely do this afternoon
@@BraxtonGreeneAdventuresalright let me know when you do
Great Stuff. Keep up the good work. 👍🏿
Thank you so much!
@@interestingmechanics Your welcome.
Door on the left closing speed to fast.. latch speed as well. Door on the right to slow, latch speed to fast.. can be adjusted with a Allen wrench.
Thanks for the comment! I know about this and I would've adjusted these long ago if I had the power to, but this is not in my control. Sorry about that
Loved the video!! especially loved the loud hissing the uncovered closer does!
Thanks for commenting!
Hello there, love your videos, I do see a slight issue here, nothing big but the series numbers, these are the 4010/4020T, 4114 was a sized push side only EDA arm closer that was only able to go up to next spring size, this now is the 4111 as the sized 4112/4113/4114/4115/4116’s are now obsolete due to 4111 is sized 1-6. Long ago I made mistakes like this too, 4114 and 4111/4020T/4010 do use the same body and bolt hole spacing on closer body, series number many times identifies it’s intended mounting/use. Hope this has helped with any confusion, please feel free to reach out if you need to or just feel like talking about door closers, more then happy to answer any/all questions/concerns you have. -Jess the Door Closer Doctor
That's quite interesting, thanks. I figured that all of them were LCN 4114s since they all were the same. In episode 3 I showed an LCN 4114 with no cover, are you sure about this? it's all quite confusing and I'm not 100% sure on it too.
This feels like something ai would write.
If you're talking about the description I wrote it myself. I did rant on a little. Hope you enjoyed the video!
@@interestingmechanics the title more specifically.
@@jwalster9412 Ah ok, thanks. Any suggestions for a better titling system?
Fellas did I just watch 3 minutes of a door
You sure did if you watched the video! Door hardware (Hinges, closers, and latches) are an interest for me and theres a whole community around it. If you found this cool for some reason then there are plenty of other people who do this too on UA-cam.
Dorma 8900’s, the latch adjustment needs to be slower
Thanks for commenting!
Nice one!
Thanks!
You closer appears to be doing really well on your update, closes soo nicely!! I love the satisfying hiss sound these closers make when the door closes!! -Jess the Door Closer Doctor
I love the hiss noise too and was the reason I decided to go with this model instead of something else. Thanks!
This one appears to be the 8900 series, school I went to in 1998-2002 had them, they only lasted about 4 years then were replaced with LCN closers. Hopefully this one gives your school many years of trouble free service! -Jess the Door Closer Doctor
The Dormas were put in the school in 2009 in the newer wing and the renovated part. I actually haven't seen a single one of these with a replacement unit, missing screw or leaking. They are doing great! Thanks for commenting!
Those are slamming, but definitely not as bad as some.
Yes. These are really loud, you can hear them across this wing of the school lol.
That door appears to rub the frame because of the loose hinge, I think the hinge needs some longer screws installed. also I filmed 2 door closers today, one is an old yale potbelly closer, and the other isn't a real door closer but it is a spring.
Yes I know that it does this. That's why there are so many clips. A work order was put in for this door a few months ago and nothing has been done about it still. There are plenty of clips of this door, I quite like the sound of it hitting the frame, most doors don't sound good when hitting the frame, but this one is fine. Notice how the closer entirely stops due to the door moving too much. These Sargent closers have a tendency to slow down but not completely stop, but this one stops.
And also, these D25 videos I'm posting for the next few days in between videos are the (almost) raw footage of the original clips. The original clips can be found in the Mega Collections, D25 compilations and Various Brand compilations. D25 right after it got the Schlage LE door handle is in the New Schlage Handles video as well. I just felt as I would clear this up a little.
what editor do you use to blur faces?
I use an advanced editor, MAGIX vegas, but the editor on your phone would work fine for this
I made a subreddit called r/doorclosers
nice
those locks are interesting, are they electronic?
Yes the keycard system is electronic but once the keycard system is detected the door actually unlocks. There is still a regular key you can use. You can see it in my "Final D25 clip" video
Nice hardware there, also the mortise locks are cool.
Yes I agree, i wish they didn't replace it but hey
Nice closers, but too bad some are knockoffs, I am currently at a hotel and I am going to film and upload all the door hardware I can!
I will be sure to watch! At least the knockoffs are by Dorma, a worldwide door hardware brand and they make great quality stuff anyhow.
And unlike other door closer youtubers, I always take time to film the other door hardware too because it's just as interesting. and I always get multiple views and cycles of each door
@@interestingmechanicsThanks, I will try to film all of the doors but some I might get caught since they are near the lobby
@@doorhardwareenthusiast I always feared getting caught at my school but eventually I worked up the confidence to ask the first question to the teacher and then talk to the school principal. The head staff knows that I do youtube now and it's an awesome feeling when that happens!
@@interestingmechanicsI ended up asking the person at the front desk and they said of course! so now I have filmed all the stairwells doors and some extra ones too!
Hinges could use some wd40 lol
Yes they sure can!!! D25 is starting to creak too... I want to see if they have fixed it or not but every morning when I go by there it's closed so
Quick question what is the lcn closer model with the twist thing on the arm that engages the hold open my high school has those. Thanks
