Aluminium & Glass Door Repair Experts in Deptford

Urgent Response for Deptford Businesses

A jammed door in a high-traffic retail environment can mean lost revenue. Our Deptford 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 Deptford 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 Deptford's high streets and offices.

Hydraulic Door Control Solutions

A slamming door is a liability lawsuit waiting to happen. Our engineers in Deptford carry out precise hydraulic adjustments to latching speed and closing force (BS EN 1154 compliance). If a unit has lost pressure (oil leakage), we replace it immediately with a compatible unit from Axim, Alpro, or Ryobi to ensure safe, controlled closing.

Emergency Glazing in Deptford

Whether due to vandalism or accident, shattered glass leaves your property exposed. We offer emergency boarding services in Deptford 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 Deptford, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions in Deptford

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 Deptford, 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 Deptford?
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 Deptford. 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.
