The 1600 model doesn't 'exactly replace' a kason part, but we normally offer it in comparison to the Kason 1094.

1600 - Heavy Duty Hydraulic Door Closer - Offset- Compares to Kason 1094

Door Closers have been invented more than 80 years ago. They still are the answer to several problems.

1) They put an end to banging doors
because they catch the door slammed by hand, by a closing spring or by a gust of wind just before the “great bang” and then pull it quietly and safely to the completely closed position. For this reason they are ideal e.g. in hospitals, public buildings, offices and many other buildings where the doors should stay open according to the requirements but not bang shut. Furthermore, the door checks have been approved for fire protection doors with spring hinges. Their banging when closing often can be heard in the whole building. But door checks also offer the solution in very sensible areas where every shaking may damage precious equipment, e.g. in research laboratories.

2) They make sure doors are completely closed
Thus they contribute to more energy efficiency and safety.

• Energy saving is practised environmental protection
Not completely closed doors of cold rooms or tempered rooms cause a much higher energy consumption. This results in costs and also harms the environment. The door checks make sure the doors are always completely closed and stay closed. This applies to hinged and sliding doors.

• Safety
Entrance doors, especially to residential buildings, should always be closed to prevent unauthorised persons from entering. A door check together with the usually already mounted overhead door closer ensures this, at different wind conditions and temperatures!
