Door closer repairs in Lincolnshire

If customers in Lincolnshire or anywhere in the East Midlands struggle to push your door open, the closer may be too powerful, and resetting it can make the entrance easier to use.

Technician adjusting an overhead door closer

Landlords with several doors in Lincolnshire and elsewhere in the East Midlands can have the closers checked together rather than arranging separate visits for each one. An oil stain on a door or floor in your Lincolnshire premises usually means a failed closer, so a replacement is more likely than an adjustment.

What do we fix in Lincolnshire?

Door will not latchThe cause is often the latch speed or a tight keep, so we check them together.
Door too heavy to openToo much spring power makes an entrance hard to use. Setting the right size brings the opening force down.
Slamming doorClosing speed and latch speed are set with valves. We adjust them, and replace the unit if the valves no longer hold.

How much does it cost in Lincolnshire?

As a guide, allow £145 to £345 ex VAT per closer. A slamming door at your Lincolnshire shop is usually a closer that needs adjusting or replacing, and one photo of the unit is a good start. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Lincolnshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Lincolnshire, including Barton-upon-Humber, Boston, Cleethorpes, Gainsborough.

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.
