I fixed my Falcon closer thanks to your instructions. Falcon labels the Allen screws (not flat head like the Ryobi) L= Latch speed, S = Closing speed and on the opposite end BC = Back-check. There are almost 100 of these in the building I live in. My favorite aspect of your video is that you have excellent focus up close without your hands getting in the way. As much a I appreciate your guidance, I'm happy that you went right to work without a long intro that included you looking into the camera and talking with your hands gesturing in the air like SO MANY YOU-TUBERS DO. This proves to me you mean business and not self promotion! I happily subscribe.

Excellent video instruction. You are the best! My office have been struggling with this problem as the last part nearer to the closing it slowed down and leaving the door unlatched which in turn triggered the alarm. Many tried to figure out on their own and it left many confounded and confused. I think your 2nd option to let door close slowing initially but faster at the end will certainly ensure proper closing. Thanks!

Thank goodness for this video, the door in my rental doesn't fully close by itself now and most people living here don't realize or don't care. I can now fix the problem in a few minutes instead of endless emails that don't get replies from my property manager. I've finished tinkering with the door and it's closing perfectly now! YAY, i'ts been so fucking hard to heat the place during winter because the slight crack the door left open would gush frozen air through instantly making the heater useless

Thank you so much! My door close is an LSDA (no idea *which* model though, neither the product nor the website is much helpful or has any manuals). But the screws are labeled "1" (top) and "2" (bottom), just like in that Ryobi 8000, and match the first and second stage like you described. My door wasn't closing to the end, and loosening #2 solved it perfectly. All the best!

Ryobi my maalik (maalik means master in my language Hindi), wish others' videos were as logical, transparent and succinct. I hit like even before I tried this method out! I was dreading even exploring the possibility of learning about speed adjustment since the guy who first fixed the door-closer made it sound/appear as if it required extreme technical expertise! But luckily found your video and am happy to share that with your instructions here, I was able to easily solve my door slamming problem! Especially in this Corona lockdown this video turned out to be even more resourceful! Haha! Thank you.

YourSelf hi I installed a magnet on the bottom of the inside of the door and on the inside wall as well so when I open it I can push it up against the magnet to hold it in place instead of using a door wedge to hold it open. The only problem is the door is wanting to close shut when pushed all the way open and the magnet is not strong enough to hold it and keep it from closing. I tried adjusting the speed at which it closes but doesn’t seem to ya e anything ti do with it. How can I adjust the tension (not the speed even though they might be related) that it wants to close? Thanks

Good video. However, it failed to demonstrate the "power adjustment control" located at the other end of the unit. My door had been a struggle to open or easily hold ajar requiring conscious effort to prevent from slamming closed. A surprising number of counterclockwise turns later(mine required a 5/16" wrench) plus a little careful adjustment to hit the sweet spot allowing the door to self-close and latch effortlessly and quietly. Also, inside the cover, I found diagrams with detailed instructions for adjusting.

Set back check first. This is tell you right away if the closer is installed properly. If the geometry is off the back check wont function at the proper angle. This will effect all other functions as well. After back check is set push the door open until is stops. Turn the closing speed valve all the way in until it holds the door. You can then start turning the closing speed out and the door will start to swing closed. Stop when the speed is where you want it and let the door finish closing. Pump the door a couple times to push the oil through the valves and recheck the swing. Last step set latch check. This happens a few inches before full close. You can slow it down to make it close smooth and not slam or give it a little pop if the door has a small obstruction to over come. If its leaking oil replace it. If your not sure what valve does what turn one all the way in and swing the door it should be obvious what function that valve effected.
