Training: Basic Door Closer Adjustment

[AboutArchie]

This is the video I would recommend on this topic. Watched several on this topic. This is the clearest, most professional one I've found so far. I now have the info I need to go do the job we need to be done. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

I loved that the adjustments are labeled with a letter I did the same thing 😆. It helps because you don't want to willy nilly adjust these. Found that out the hard way.

Awesome. Thanks for the video. Just fixed a door that apparently was "broken" for a few weeks. It just needed to be adjusted.

How do you keep the door open or adjust that setting with the closer?

[sticksbass]

are you supposed to read the top of the gasket or under it where the spring loaded part is touching?

Repurposed door. It started life as a RH swing on conventional hinges, and is now a LH door on a through-bolted continuous hinge.

NEVER make more than one adjustment at a time.  On most closers, latch speed is a function (derivative) of sweep speed.  By adjusting both, you MAY be un-doing the benefits of one or the other.
