An example door closer includes a casing and a pinion rotatably mounted to the casing. The pinion is operable to rotate through a plurality of movement zones, and the door closer is configured to exert forces on the pinion as the pinion moves through the plurality of movement zones. The door closer further includes a plurality of adjustment mechanisms, each operable to adjust the force exerted on the pinion as the pinion travels through a corresponding movement zone. The casing is provided with indicia that correlate each of the adjustment mechanisms to the corresponding movement zone.

Provided is a ligature resistant door and door frame assembly. Such assembly enables movement of the door relative to the frame via an actuator concealed and supported by the door frame so as to eliminate conventional hinge and closer arm constructions. In doing so, the assembly eliminates such conventional structure providing potential structure capable of supporting suspension of ligature, and reduces costs associated with purchase and installation.

A tie bar and guide assembly for casement windows having a roll form tie bar that snaps on to the tie bar guide without extending through it. The tie bar has locating openings that engage tabs on the tie bar guide to locate and secure the guide prior to installation. The tabs are depressed and disengaged when fasteners are used to secure the tie bar assembly to the window frame. The tie bar can include rivet locking points located close to the top and bottom of the tie bar to provide better security and increased stability for preventing water and air infiltration. The rivet locking points can be adjustable to optimize the fit of the window sash within the frame. The snap-on design reduces the overall height of the tie bar assembly thereby enabling a closer fit of the sash within the frame and reducing the required width of the window frame needed to accommodate the locking mechanism.

An overhead door frame assembly has a horizontal header connected to tripod legs with splice assemblies. Each tripod leg has two upright columns connected to an upright I-bar. A splice assembly is fastened to each upright column. Hinges pivotally mount the overhead door to the header to allow hydraulic cylinders to move the overhead door to an open position and a closed position.

The present disclosure describes various embodiments of a concealed or hidden door closer that is installed in a drip cap of a door assembly. In some embodiments, the door frame and door closer components are configured to allow the door assembly to be readily installed as either a left or a right hand hinged door.

The present invention relates generally to a new and improved overhead door safety support and/or kit for overhead garage doors. More specifically, the invention relates to an overhead door safety support that is comprised of a metal frame arm, a level arm switch, a mounting assembly, a junction box, a spring-loaded garage door receiving piece, a plurality of hinges, a hand lock, and a stabilizing foot. The overhead door safety support and/or kit for overhead garage doors of the present invention improves safety and is relatively easy to install and use.

A sliding device for doors and (24) wardrobe doors provided with multiple adjustments consists of a carriage or slider (10), provided with rollers or bearings (22) for sliding the doors to which a profile section (28) is secured having an embossed and shaped portion (22 of a shape complementary to the profile section of said rollers (22). The carriage or slider (10) comprises a first body or front body (12), having a substantially rectangular plan, and a second body or rear body (14) intended to be connected to the first front body (12); said rear body (14) is provided with opposed substantially cylindrical appendages (16, 18) with a vertical passing-through hole (32) in which respective cylindrical bodies are inserted along which an offset and passing-through threaded hole (36) is bored, to form as many eccentrics (34). In each of the holes (36) a threaded stem or screw (38) is entered, which protrudes from the upper side of the front body (12) on which corresponding holes or slots (32y) are bored.

An inverted constant force window balance system has a carrier assembly including a housing with a first and a second housing wall, a coil spring with a free end, and a shoe assembly slidably coupled to the housing. The shoe assembly includes a first and a second shoe face. The housing slides between a first and a second position relative to the shoe assembly. When in the first position, the first and second housing walls are substantially non-coplanar with the first shoe face, and when in the second position, the first housing wall is substantially coplanar with the first shoe face and substantially non-coplanar with the second shoe face. The shoe assembly receives a pivot bar from a window sash and extends a brake upon rotation thereof. The balance system also includes a mounting bracket releasably coupled to the housing and coupled to the free end of the coil spring.

A window balance assembly may include a carrier, a spring element, and a mounting bracket. The spring element may include first and second portions. The first portion may be coupled to the carrier. The mounting bracket may engage the second portion of the spring element and may selectively engage the carrier.

A device for operating opposite sliding doors of a vehicle includes a center rail mounted at a center inside a door and formed in a curved shape so that the door moves to the outside of a vehicle interior of the vehicle when the door is opened. A center roller is mounted on the vehicle body so as to correspond to the center rail. The center roller is configured to move the center rail by being coupled to the center rail when the door is opened or closed as a center bearing unit formed at one side of the center roller is seated on the center rail. The center roller has a center shaft formed at a position spaced apart from the center bearing unit such that the center shaft can rotate the center roller.
