I have door closer whose pressure I want to adjust. After googling, I
determined that it is a surface-mount. The door closer has a plastic
cover with 2 holes on each end and one on the bottom. No screws are
visible, they look like holes in the casing. No amount of pulling
seems to be able to remove the cover. There are no manufacturer
markings on the cover. Is there a common way to remove such a cover?



Is this a commercial closer on a steel door?
LCN closers have 2 very small phillips heads screws on top. Some brands
have screws on the ends. It does seem to me I've had some that just kind
of snap on. I guess I/we would need some more information. What type of
door? What shape is the closer?

LCN uses allen head screws.
