A Slimline door closer is a compact, low-profile version of a traditional manual door closer. Designed to offer the same reliable door control in a smaller, more discreet package, Slimline closers are ideal for modern commercial spaces, glass storefronts, and architecturally sensitive installations where aesthetics and minimal hardware visibility matter.
Slimline door closers are typically used on aluminum-framed doors, narrow stiles, and interior commercial doors where space is limited but performance is still critical.
Like traditional closers, Slimline door closers use a spring and hydraulic system to control the opening and closing motion of a door. Despite their smaller size, many Slimline models still offer full functionality, including:
Adjustable closing and latching speed
Backcheck features to prevent door slamming
Compact body ideal for narrow-top rail doors
Compatibility with aluminum storefronts and tempered glass doors
Slimline closers are commonly found in:
Retail storefronts
Glass entry doors
Office buildings
Restaurants and hospitality environments
Interior commercial doors with narrow aluminum frames
Their low-profile design makes them a favorite among architects, designers, and property managers looking for performance without bulky hardware.
