CR Series Door Coordinators

Bar Coordinator
CR-32 / CR-42 / CR-52 / CR-60 / CR-72
Klacci’s CR Series Bar Coordinators offer a simple yet effective way of regulating double door entries. These products guarantee a correct order of door closing and prevent that any entry that is not properly closed may cause a safety concern in case of emergency.
Features
- The lever mechanism on the active door side holds the active door open until a trigger mechanism releases it when the passive door closes.
- An adjustable override mechanism allows the active door to close first in case that an excessive force is applied on it to protect the door as well as the coordinator from further damage.
- These units are compatible with flush bolts, door closers and other double door hardware for a more complete application.
Certification/Compliance
- Conforms to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Type 21A (Grade 1).
- UL/cUL Fire Rated for 3-Hour Fire Door Hardware, conforms to UL10C.
Bar Coordinator Length
- The bar coordinator standard length should be equal to the active door’s width (X) plus 1/2 the inactive door’s width (Y).
- For cases where above condition cannot be met, the bar coordinator length must be at least 6″ (152.4 mm) longer than the active door width (X).
- The bar coordinator length must not exceed the overall frame opening between stops (O).
Note: Standard stop thickness (S) is of 5/8″ (16 mm).

Examples:
- Active door width (X): 42″ (1066.8 mm)
Inactive door width (Y): 42″ (1066.8 mm)
Recommended coordinator: CR-60 - Active door width (X): 36″ (914.4 mm)
Inactive door width (Y): 18″ (457.1 mm)
Recommended coordinator: CR-42
