Door closer repairs in Bristol and Avon

A slamming door at your Bristol and Avon shop is usually a closer that needs adjusting or replacing, and one photo of the unit is a good start.

Landlords with several doors in Bristol and Avon and elsewhere in the South West can have the closers checked together rather than arranging separate visits for each one. Fire door closers on premises in Bristol and Avon or across the South West must suit the door, so we check the power size and any evidence before fitting a replacement.

Door will not latchThe cause is often the latch speed or a tight keep, so we check them together.

How much does it cost in Bristol and Avon?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Bristol and Avon?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Bristol and Avon, including Bristol.

Can I take the closer off a fire door?

No, not if the door is meant to be self-closing. The closer is part of the door's fire protection, and removing it can leave a route unprotected. In England and Wales, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires it to be maintained.

What size door closer do I need?

The size depends on the door's width and weight under BS EN 1154. EN 3 suits doors up to 950 mm and 60 kg, and fire doors need EN 3 or above. Exposed doors in windy spots may need more power, which we check on site.

Can a door closer be adjusted rather than replaced?

Yes, if it is not leaking. Most closers have valves that set the closing and latching speed, and many have adjustable power. If the unit is leaking oil, or adjustment makes no difference, it needs replacing.
