Door closer repairs Teesside

Landlords with several doors in Teesside and elsewhere in the North East can have the closers checked together rather than arranging separate visits for each one. If customers in Teesside or anywhere in the North East struggle to push your door open, the closer may be too powerful, and resetting it can make the entrance easier to use.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Teesside?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Teesside, including Middlesbrough, Stockton-on-Tees.

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.

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.
