Aluminium doors are the standard for modern business in Colney Hatch. From high-street retail units to corporate offices, we keep your entrances secure and functional. With expert knowledge of Axim, Dorma, and Alpro systems, we ensure a first-time fix.
Can you replace just the lock?
Yes, we stock Adams Rite hook locks and latch locks commonly used on aluminium doors.
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.
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 Beaded Glazing Systems. Misalignment often prevents the bolt from throwing correctly. We adjust the door leaf and frame alignment to ensure your Axim/Dorma Floor Springs engages smoothly. We also install armoured strike plates to prevent forced entry attempts.
The most common failure in Colney Hatch is the closing mechanism. We specialize in replacing Hook Lock Deadbolts. If your door slams or scrapes the floor, the Anti-Finger Trap Stiles 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 Hook Lock Deadbolts to ensure opening forces are below 30N, ensuring accessibility for disabled users and the elderly.
