Aluminium & Glass Door Repair Experts in Church End

24/7 Emergency Door Repairs in Church End

Security breaches don't adhere to business hours. That is why we offer a dedicated emergency response service for Church End.

Specialist Aluminium Shopfront Services

Our Church End 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 Church End's high streets and offices.

Door Closer Technical Services (Dorma, Axim, Geze)

The door closer is the engine of your manual door. In Church End, 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 Church End

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

Automatic Door Repair & Maintenance

Automatic sliding and swing doors are complex electro-mechanical systems. In Church End, we troubleshoot:

• Sensor Faults: Radar and infrared safety beams that fail to detect pedestrians or cause 'ghosting' (false openings).
• Motor & Gearbox Failure: Grinding noises or jerky movement often indicate drive belt wear or motor burnout.
• Control Board Logic: We reprogram settings for hold-open times, opening speeds, and lock integration.

We work with Record, Geze, Besam, and Dorma automatic operators.

Residential Bifold & Patio Door Repairs

For homeowners in Church End, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions in Church End

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 Church End, 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 Church End?
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 Church End. 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.
