Mark Stonelake, technical manager at Samuel Heath, explains: “Installation of the Powermatic door closer in a single door is straightforward, requiring basic carpentry skills and nothing more than a drill, chisel and screwdriver. “However, when faced with multiple door installations, our morticing tool is a worthwhile investment as it makes the process a lot more efficient by enabling the installer to rout the door and frame more quickly and accurately, thereby saving time on site.” The new video takes the viewer through the simple stages of using the morticing tool and subsequent installation and adjustment of the door closer in fire and non-fire door applications. It can be viewed on Samuel Heath’s dedicated door closer website at www.concealeddoorclosers.com.
