How to install auto door closers for security door?

Alfandari

Hi there, our front metal security door is always banging really loudly when it shuts unless someone closes it by hand gently. How do I kill the banging instead of my husband? 😎

Will putting a new hydraulic or pneumatic closer solve it or is it something else like the metal frame/lock area? We have a black security door.

Thanks 🙏🏻

Hi @Alfandari,

I do believe that a pneumatic door closer will prevent the door from being slammed shut. It allows for smooth opening and closing. If you attempt to slam or close the door too quickly, the pressure in the cylinder provides resistance.
