Universal mounting plate

A mounting plate for a door closer, comprising:

• a plate including a plurality of attachment points and with at least one opening therethrough;
• and
• a plurality of spacers dimensioned to fit against portions of the plate about a set of opposing sides of the at least one opening, the spacers each having a through slot;
• wherein opposing ends of the spacers include cutouts to fit within the opposing sides of the at least one opening, wherein portions of the plate including the attachment points have a greater thickness than portions of the plate about the set of opposing sides of the at least one rectangular opening, and wherein a thickness of the opposing ends of the spacers is less than or equal to a difference in thickness between the portions of the plate including the attachment points and the portions of the place-plate about the set of opposing sides of the at least one opening.

A mounting plate for a door closer, comprising:

• a frame including a plurality of attachment points, the frame defining at least one opening, each at least one opening having at least one section having linear parallel opposing sides;
• and
• a plurality of components having opposing walls defining a through slot, at least part of the opposing walls coupled by a coupling at each end, the plurality of components dimensioned such that a portion of the coupling at each end fit against portions of the frame about the at least one opening;
• wherein the frame has a first thickness about the plurality of attachment points and a second thickness about the linear parallel opposing sides of the at least one opening, with the first thickness greater than the second thickness.

A mounting plate for a door closer, comprising:

• a rectangular frame having a front side, a rear side, an upper beam, a lower beam, and a first post and a second post coupling opposing ends of the upper beam and lower beam, the upper beam parallel to the lower beam and the first post parallel to the second post, the first post and the second post having a greater thickness than the upper beam and the lower beam, the first post and the second post each having threaded holes and a mount surface;
• and
• a plurality of spacers dimensioned to fit against the upper beam and the lower beam, the plurality of spacers each including a through slot, the through slot having a depth less than or equal to the depth of the first post and the second post, each of the plurality of spacers having a front surface and a back surface;
• wherein the plurality of spacers, the upper beam, and the lower beam are sized and configured so that when the plurality of spacers are fit against the upper beam and the lower beam, the front surfaces of the plurality of spacers are not forwardly relative to the first and second post mount surfaces.
