Floor spring repairs Devon

Landlords looking after glass entrances in Devon or anywhere in the South West can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure. A photo of the cover plate and door often identifies a floor spring fault, which can save your Devon shop a diagnostic visit.

What do we fix in Devon?

Hold-open not holdingMany floor springs can hold a door open at a set angle. When that stops working, the mechanism is usually worn.

Flooded or dirty boxWater and grit in the cement box shorten the life of the spring. We clear it and check that the box is still sound.

Door slams or creepsClosing and latching speeds are set with valves. If adjustment no longer holds, the spring is wearing out.

How much does it cost in Devon?

Budget £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. A failed floor spring at your Devon premises often affects the top pivot and patch fittings too, so we check those parts before pricing the new unit. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Devon?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Devon, including Barnstaple, Exeter, Exmouth, Newton Abbot.

Do floor springs suit fire doors?

Some do, but only models tested for the purpose and fitted as part of a tested door set. Fire doors need a closing device of at least power size EN 3 under BS EN 1154. Never swap the closer on a fire door without checking its certification.

Can a leaking floor spring be repaired?

Usually not. A leaking floor spring is normally replaced, because the hydraulic unit is sealed and its seals are not a routine site repair. The cement box can often stay. If the box is corroded or the make is no longer available, we explain the options.

Will a new floor spring fit my existing box?

Often yes, if the box and spindle match the replacement. Many makes share similar sizes, but not all do, so we check the dimensions first. Where they differ, an adapter or a new box may be needed, and a new box means opening up the floor.
