Door closer repairs Greater Manchester

Where a closer cannot be priced from photos, a charged diagnostic visit to your Greater Manchester shop comes first, and we confirm the cost before booking. Fire door closers on premises in Greater Manchester or across the North West must suit the door, so we check the power size and any evidence before fitting a replacement.

What do we fix in Greater Manchester?

Leaking closerOil on the door or floor means the hydraulic seal has gone, and the closer needs replacing.

Door too heavy to openToo much spring power makes an entrance hard to use. Setting the right size brings the opening force down.

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 Greater Manchester?

Expect £145 to £345 ex VAT per closer. An oil stain on a door or floor in your Greater Manchester premises usually means a failed closer, so a replacement is more likely than an adjustment. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Greater Manchester, including Altrincham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Bolton, Bury.

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.

Why is my shop door so hard to open?

The closer is probably too powerful or badly set. Approved Document M and BS 8300 give guidance of no more than 30 N at the start of opening and 22.5 N from 30 to 60 degrees. Under the Equality Act 2010, service providers must make reasonable adjustments.

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.
