Understanding Handing for the dormakaba ITS 96 EMF Door Closer

Choosing the correct handing for your dormakaba ITS 96 EMF door closer is essential for proper installation and functionality. This model is handed as DIN left or DIN right, depending on the door’s hinge location and opening direction.

How to Determine DIN Handing

To identify the correct handing:

Stand on the pull side of the door (the side where you pull the door to open it).

Look at the hinges:

• If the hinges are on the left, the door is DIN left.
• If the hinges are on the right, the door is DIN right.

ISO Handing Explained

In addition to DIN handing, the ITS 96 EMF is also defined by ISO handing, which refers to the direction the door closes:

• ISO 6: Anti-clockwise closing (matches DIN left).
• ISO 5: Clockwise closing (matches DIN right).

Discreet Design for Improved Aesthetics

Concealed door closers are ideal for environments that prioritise a clean, professional appearance. The concealed design eliminates the bulk of surface mounted door closers, making it perfect for commercial offices and front-of-house areas in public buildings. By maintaining unbroken architectural lines, they enhance the visual appeal of spaces without compromising on functionality.

For exceptionally heavy doors, a floor spring is a recommended concealed door closing solution. Browse our range of floor springs or contact our technical team for tailored advice.
