Door closer repairs in Worcestershire
If customers in Worcestershire or anywhere in the West Midlands struggle to push your door open, the closer may be too powerful, and resetting it can make the entrance easier to use.
A slamming door at your Worcestershire shop is usually a closer that needs adjusting or replacing, and one photo of the unit is a good start. An oil stain on a door or floor in your Worcestershire premises usually means a failed closer, so a replacement is more likely than an adjustment.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Worcestershire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Worcestershire, including Droitwich, Evesham, Kidderminster, Malvern.
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.
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 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.
