Should the door closer be installed on the inside or outside?
Should the main part be mounted on the door frame/wall or on the door leaf?
If the door closer is installed on the inside (strike side), the maximum opening angle is usually 120-130°.
If the door closer is installed on the outside (hinge side), there are door closers that can handle around 180°.

If the door closer is installed on the inside (hinge side), the maximum opening angle is usually 120-130°.
If the door closer is installed on the outside (opposite hinge side), there are door closers capable of around 180°.
Doesn't matter which side. Doesn't matter frame or wall. Only needs to be mounted on the door that stays open.
Hello! I'm hijacking this thread a bit.
Does anyone know how to adjust this door closer? I would like it to press more against the door frame; as it is now, it has a gap of about one to one and a half centimeters when the door is closed.
When I search for Doorman or the numbers, it doesn't show up.
Thanks for the help.
Best regards, Stefan
By simply looking at the pictures, I immediately see two options.
- Detach the inner arm from the door closer and move it a notch inward into the room, possibly requiring the outer arm to be extended.
- Shorten the outer arm.

Okay, I'll try that, but it feels like a very cumbersome solution for fine adjustments 🤔
