We have just fitted a door closer on a door as requested by building control. I dont think we carried out the fitted correctly since it turned out to be a nightmare to fit, requiring the strength of 2 men to do it properly. (we fitted one side in, but had to use a lot of force to position the other hinge into place to screw it in...). Anyway, its done now, and the door closes automatically when opened but it remains slightly ajar. Is it ok if its slightly ajar or will building control require it to shut firmly?
We used a Perko closer on a fire door.
Any advice on where we went wrong during the fitting would also be appreciated.
