Rutland Floor Springs
When a project demands high-performance door control without visible hardware, Rutland floor springs offer the ultimate solution. Designed to be buried within the floor, these units provide powerful, double-action control for heavy timber doors, metal frames, and frameless glass systems. From the compact TS.7000 series to high-capacity units capable of handling doors up to 600kg, Rutland floor springs combine aesthetic minimalism with the rugged durability required for high-traffic commercial entrances.Why Choose Floor Springs Over Overhead Closers?
While overhead closers are the standard, Rutland floor springs are the preferred choice for specific architectural requirements:
- Aesthetics: Ideal for heritage buildings or modern glass storefronts where a visible arm would ruin the design.
- Double Action Movement: Unlike most overhead units, floor springs allow a door to swing both inwards and outwards (double action), making them perfect for busy restaurant or hospital corridors.
- Extreme Weight Capacity: Rutland floor springs are engineered to support significantly heavier doors than standard overhead units, often managing weights that would cause a traditional hinge to sag.
Technical Specifications & Compliance
- Fire Safety: Rutland floor springs are Certifire approved and tested to BS EN 1634 for 30 and 60-minute fire doors (when used with the correct intumescent kit).
- Hold-Open Options: Available in 90° Hold-Open for non-fire rated doors or No Hold-Open for dedicated fire escape routes.
- Adjustable Closing & Latch Speed: Dual-valve control ensures the door closes smoothly and latches securely every time.
Floor Springs Frequently Asked QuestionsÂ
Can Rutland floor springs be used with glass doors?
Yes. When paired with the appropriate bottom strap and top pivot, Rutland floor springs are the industry standard for frameless glass door installations.
Do I need an intumescent kit?
If the floor spring is being installed into a fire-rated timber door, a dedicated intumescent gasket kit is mandatory to maintain the integrity of the fire seal.
How do I adjust a floor spring that is already installed?
Most Rutland models allow for lateral, longitudinal, and vertical adjustment within the cement box even after the floor has been finished. Simply remove the cover plate to access the adjustment screws.
