Urgent Response for Merton Park Businesses
A jammed door in a high-traffic retail environment can mean lost revenue. Our Merton Park 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.
Aluminium Door Diagnostics & Repair
Aluminium doors are the standard for commercial shopfronts in Merton Park due to their durability, but they are prone to specific wear-and-tear issues. Common faults we rectify include:
- Dropped / Misaligned Doors: Often caused by worn pivot sets or loose frame fixings, leading to the door scraping the floor or failing to lock.
- Worn Wool Pile & Weather Stripping: Essential for insulation; we replace these to improve energy efficiency.
- Frame Fatigue: In high-traffic Merton Park locations, aluminium joints can crack. We offer on-site welding and reinforcement.
Hydraulic Door Control Solutions
A slamming door is a liability lawsuit waiting to happen. Our engineers in Merton Park 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 Merton Park
Whether due to vandalism or accident, shattered glass leaves your property exposed. We offer emergency boarding services in Merton Park 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 Merton Park 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.

Frequently Asked Questions in Merton Park
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 Merton Park, 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 Merton Park?
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 Merton Park. 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.
