Comprehensive Door Services for Regent Street

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 Regent Street, 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 Regent Street Businesses

A jammed door in a high-traffic retail environment can mean lost revenue. Our Regent Street 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 Regent Street 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 Regent Street 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 Regent Street 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.

Commercial Glass & Glazing

Broken glass demands immediate attention. We provide a full glazing service for Regent Street:

  • Laminated Safety Glass: For shopfronts, ensuring that if it breaks, it holds together to prevent injury and maintain security.
  • Toughened Glass: For frameless glass doors (Armourplate), requiring precise measurement and factory ordering.
  • Double Glazed Units: We replace misted or cracked units in aluminium frames to restore thermal performance.

Automatic Door Repair & Maintenance

Automatic sliding and swing doors are complex electro-mechanical systems. In Regent Street, 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.

Home Security Upgrades

Secure your home in Regent Street with our lock replacement services. We upgrade standard locks to 3-star British Standard cylinders and install sash jammers and restrictors for added peace of mind.

High-Security Locks & Access Control

We supply and fit a vast range of locking mechanisms for Regent Street 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.
  • Panic Hardware: Push bars and touch bars for fire escape routes, ensuring easy egress in an emergency.

Frequently Asked Questions in Regent Street

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 Regent Street, 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 Regent Street?
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 Regent Street. 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.
