About the brand
Lawrence Hardware
Lawrence Hardware has manufactured commercial door hardware since 1876. Its hardware is certified or built to ANSI/BHMA standards. Trusted by contractors, builders, and architects across North America for nearly 150 years.
The LH8016 is the extra heavy duty closer at the top of the Embassy Series from Lawrence Hardware, built for openings that cannot afford a failure: school corridors, hospital entrances, stadium gates and industrial doors. It is certified Grade 1 to ANSI/BHMA A156.4 past 2,000,000 cycles and rated for roughly 5,000 openings a day.
Why the cast iron body matters
Almost every surface-mounted closer in this class has a cast aluminum body. The LH8016 uses cast iron, and that is the reason to choose it. The heavier casting is what earns the extra heavy duty rating and the higher capacity — 250 lbs of door, against 200 lbs for the cast aluminum LH816.
What to check before you order
The door. Up to 250 lbs, and up to 60 inches wide inside or 48 inches outside. Measure the door before ordering — an exterior door wider than 48 inches needs a different solution.
The frame. Regular arm, top jamb and parallel arm hardware all ship in the box, so it fits nearly any frame. Check the clearance at your door stop first.
The closing force. Spring power #1 through #6 is set during installation, not at the factory. Whoever fits it has to dial the force to the door — and to the ADA limit if the opening has to be accessible.
Good to know
Cast iron corrodes in salt air, so for a coastal opening choose the aluminum LH816 instead. This closer does not hold the door open on its own; that takes the separate LH8016 hold-open arm. Sweep speed, latch speed, backcheck and delayed action all adjust after mounting.
The LH8016 shares the footprint of the LCN 4040XP and 4041, so it often drops onto an existing installation. For a lighter door or gentler traffic, the LH816 or LH5016 cost less.

How does the installation process work for the LH8016?
Mount the closer body to the door using the included screws and template. The LH8016 supports regular arm, top-jamb, and parallel-arm mounting — installation hardware for all three mounts is included. Connect the arm assembly to the door frame bracket, then adjust closing speed, latch speed, and (where applicable) backcheck using the included wrench. Most installations take 30-45 minutes.
What size door does the LH8016 fit?
The LH8016 is rated for doors up to 60 in. (interior) / 48 in. (exterior) wide and 250 lbs. This makes it suitable for extra heavy duty applications. For larger doors, see our heavier-duty models.
Is the LH8016 ANSI Grade 1?
Yes — the LH8016 meets ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1. It has been third-party tested per BHMA standards and certified for commercial use.
What products does the LH8016 compare to?
The LH8016 is engineered as a direct functional and footprint replacement for: LCN 4040XP / 4041 · Norton 8501 · Sargent 1431. In many cases the existing mounting holes will line up with no re-drilling required.
Is it ADA compliant?
Yes. The LH8016 can be adjusted to meet ADA opening-force requirements (5 lbs maximum for interior doors). Adjustment screws are accessible on the closer body — no disassembly required.
What finishes are available?
The LH8016 ships in multiple finishes — see the swatches above. The most common are Aluminum (AL), Dark Bronze (DU/690), Painted Brass (PB), Matte Black (US19), and Polished Chrome (US26). All are powder-coated for long-term corrosion resistance.
