Aluminium doors are the standard for modern business in Clerkenwell. Our local engineers specialize in the geometry and hardware of Commercial Aluminium Doors. With expert knowledge of Axim, Dorma, and Alpro systems, we ensure a first-time fix.
Emergency replacement of laminated and toughened safety glass.
Installing ergonomic paddle handles and DDA compliant hardware.
Re-aligning dropped doors by replacing worn top and bottom pivot bearings.
Fitting Adams Rite hook locks and armoured strike plates.
My door is slamming shut. Can you fix it?
Yes, this usually indicates a failed transom closer or floor spring. We can replace the unit and adjust the closing speed.
Is the glass safety rated?
Yes, all our replacements use laminated or toughened safety glass to BS EN 12600 standards.
Can you replace just the lock?
Yes, we stock Adams Rite hook locks and latch locks commonly used on aluminium doors.
Do you offer emergency boarding?
Yes, if the glass is shattered, we can board it up immediately and measure for a new unit.
Security is paramount. We upgrade standard locks to high-security Armoured Strike Plates. Misalignment often prevents the bolt from throwing correctly. We adjust the door leaf and frame alignment to ensure your Laminated Safety Glass (6.4mm) engages smoothly. We also install armoured strike plates to prevent forced entry attempts.
The most common failure in Clerkenwell is the closing mechanism. We specialize in replacing Wool Pile Weather Stripping. If your door slams or scrapes the floor, the Paddle Handles & Push Pads has likely failed. We replace these units with genuine Axim or Dorma parts, adjusting the latching speed to ensure a gentle, secure close every time.
Heavy aluminium doors must be safe for everyone. Under the Equality Act 2010 (DDA), doors must not require excessive force to open. We test and adjust your Armoured Strike Plates to ensure opening forces are below 30N, ensuring accessibility for disabled users and the elderly.
