Comprehensive Door Services for Acton Green

In-depth technical repairs for all door types.

A broken door is more than an inconvenience; it is a security risk and a potential violation of fire safety regulations. In Acton Green, we provide a comprehensive diagnostic and repair service for commercial aluminium doors, shopfront glass, and heavy-duty entrance systems. Our engineers are trained to handle complex mechanical failures in floor springs, transom closers, and automatic operators.

Urgent Response for Acton Green Businesses

A jammed door in a high-traffic retail environment can mean lost revenue. Our Acton Green emergency team prioritises commercial call-outs, carrying extensive stock of universal closers, locks, and hinges to effect a first-time fix. We handle smashed glass shopfronts and failed automatic doors with the urgency your business requires.

Specialist Aluminium Shopfront Services

Our Acton Green technicians are experts in the geometry of aluminium doors. We don't just force a door shut; we realign the entire leaf, adjust the transom closer tension, and ensure the lock bolt engages perfectly. We service both narrow stile and wide stile aluminium doors commonly found in Acton Green's high streets and offices.

Door Closer Technical Services (Dorma, Axim, Geze)

The door closer is the engine of your manual door. In Acton Green, we frequently encounter leaking or slamming closers that pose a danger to the public. We specialise in:

  • Transom Closers (Concealed Overhead): We replace failed Axim and Dorma units hidden within the frame header, a difficult job requiring specialist lifting gear.
  • Floor Springs: Common in glass doors, these units can seize due to water ingress. We excavate and replace floor boxes and mechanisms.
  • Surface Mounted Closers: We install heavy-duty rack-and-pinion closers for fire doors and rear exits.

Emergency Glazing in Acton Green

Whether due to vandalism or accident, shattered glass leaves your property exposed. We offer emergency boarding services in Acton Green followed by rapid re-glazing. All our glass installations comply with BS 6206 / BS EN 12600 impact safety standards.

BS EN 16005 Safety Compliance

All automatic doors in Acton Green must adhere to strict safety regulations. We conduct safety audits, checking closing forces (max 150N) and ensuring safety sensors cover all crush zones. If your door is non-compliant, we can retrofit monitored safety sensors to bring it up to legal standards.

Residential Bifold & Patio Door Repairs

For homeowners in Acton Green, a sticking patio door or a bifold door that won't lock is a major frustration. We are experts in:

  • Bi-fold Door Alignment: Re-toeing and heeling the glass to lift the sash, and adjusting the bogie wheels for smooth rolling.
  • Sliding Patio Tracks: Replacing damaged stainless steel tracks and worn nylon rollers.
  • uPVC Door Locks: Upgrading to anti-snap, anti-bump Euro cylinders for enhanced home security.

High-Security Locks & Access Control

We supply and fit a vast range of locking mechanisms for Acton Green properties:

  • Hook Locks & Deadbolts: For aluminium narrow stile doors (Adams Rite style).
  • Maglocks & Electric Strikes: For intercom-controlled entry systems in blocks of flats and offices.
  • Mechanical Digital Locks: Code locks for staff-only areas.

Frequently Asked Questions in Acton Green

Q: My shop door slams shut dangerously fast. Can you fix it?
A: Yes, this is usually a sign of a failed hydraulic damper in the transom closer or floor spring. In Acton Green, we can often adjust the valve to regulate speed, but if oil has leaked, we will replace the unit with a new Dorma or Axim closer to ensure safety.

Q: Do you repair automatic sliding doors for shops in Acton Green?
A: Absolutely. We repair motor gearboxes, drive belts, and carriage wheels. We also test and replace safety beams and microwave radar sensors to ensure your door meets BS EN 16005 standards.

Q: My aluminium door scrapes the floor. What is the cause?
A: This is 'door drop', common in Acton Green. It can be caused by the glass slipping (needing 'toeing and heeling') or a worn bottom pivot. We can realign the door to ensure smooth clearance and proper locking.

Q: Can you replace the glass in my commercial door the same day?
A: For standard laminated safety glass, we often can. For toughened glass (which requires furnace processing), we will secure your property with boarding or a laminated pane immediately and return to fit the custom unit.
