What Our Repair & Maintenance Services Cover
Commercial door systems experience constant wear, especially in busy environments. We carry out a wide variety of repairs and servicing tasks, helping clients avoid costly breakdowns and maintain compliance with UK safety standards.
Our work commonly includes:
- Mechanical repairs for aluminium, steel, glass, timber, and fire door systems.
- Adjustments and replacements of closers, hinges, pivots, and floor springs.
- Automatic door diagnostics, sensor calibration, and operator repairs.
- Fixing electronic access panels, locking systems, and security integrations.
- Fire door inspections, remedial works, and compliance restoration.
- Safety testing and preventative maintenance programmes.
Because our engineers have backgrounds in carpentry and more specific technical aspects of door engineering, we can handle the full mechanical and structural elements of a door, including frame repairs, alignment corrections, and certified fire door maintenance.
Common Issues We Resolve
Door problems vary depending on the property, system type, and level of footfall. Some issues arise gradually through wear and tear, while others appear suddenly and need immediate attention. We support all kinds of commercial sites, always working with minimal disruption to daily operations.
Typical problems we repair include:
- Automatic doors failing to open or close consistently.
- Grinding, scraping, sticking, or stiff manual doors.
- Damaged locks, handles, or access control components.
- Misaligned or warped frames affecting fire door compliance.
- Worn closers causing slamming or slow-closing doors.
- Electrical faults, sensor malfunctions, or safety edge failures.
Prompt repair is essential, not just for convenience but for safety. Faulty doors can compromise fire compartmentation, damage energy efficiency, or create risky access points (especially in public-facing settings).
Maintenance Services for Different Premises
Each building type comes with different challenges, especially when doors are used heavily throughout the day. Our maintenance programmes are tailored to the environment, allowing clients to stay compliant while reducing unexpected breakdowns.
We regularly maintain systems within:
Retail environments
Where constant customer footfall puts strain on automatic doors and glazing systems
Offices
Where reliable access control and smooth operation are essential for staff movement and security.
Schools and educational sites
Requiring enhanced safety checks and compliance, supported by our Enhanced DBS-checked team.
Hospitals and healthcare facilities
Where hygiene, accessibility, and system uptime are absolutely critical.
Public buildings and mixed-use commercial sites
Often operating with multiple door types that need coordinated servicing.
Key Factors That Shape Effective Door Maintenance
- The volume and pattern of daily usage.
- Fire safety and building compartmentation requirements.
- Security-level needs and integration with access systems.
- Ensuring safety compliance for all users, including those with mobility needs.
- Minimising downtime and disruption to site activity.
Preventative maintenance not only prolongs the lifespan of your doors but also reduces risk, improves safety, and ensures your building remains fully operational year-round.
Manufacturers & Systems We Repair
We work extensively with systems from leading manufacturers such as Record, ASSA ABLOY, Axim, and Dorma. Our engineers understand the inner workings of these products, allowing us to complete accurate, efficient repairs using the correct components and procedures.
