A slamming or jammed aluminium door disrupts trade in The Wrythe. Our local engineers specialize in the geometry and hardware of Commercial Aluminium Doors. We don't just fix the fault; we re-align the door for long-term smooth operation.
Fitting Adams Rite hook locks and armoured strike plates.
Replacement of concealed closers (Axim/Dorma) to stop slamming.
Re-aligning dropped doors by replacing worn top and bottom pivot bearings.
Installing ergonomic paddle handles and DDA compliant hardware.
The most common failure in The Wrythe is the closing mechanism. We specialize in replacing Thermally Broken Profiles. If your door slams or scrapes the floor, the Wool Pile Weather Stripping 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.
Security is paramount. We upgrade standard locks to high-security Concealed Transom Door Closers. Misalignment often prevents the bolt from throwing correctly. We adjust the door leaf and frame alignment to ensure your Hook Lock Deadbolts engages smoothly. We also install armoured strike plates to prevent forced entry attempts.
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 Concealed Transom Door Closers to ensure opening forces are below 30N, ensuring accessibility for disabled users and the elderly.
Can you replace just the lock?
Yes, we stock Adams Rite hook locks and latch locks commonly used on aluminium doors.
Do you repair shop front doors?
Absolutely. We specialize in commercial aluminium shop fronts, including pivot doors and sliding entrances.
Do you offer emergency boarding?
Yes, if the glass is shattered, we can board it up immediately and measure for a new unit.
Is the glass safety rated?
Yes, all our replacements use laminated or toughened safety glass to BS EN 12600 standards.
