Floor spring repairs in Hertfordshire

If a glass door at your Hertfordshire premises has stopped closing properly, check for oil around the floor plate and send us a photo of it.

Landlords looking after glass entrances in Hertfordshire or anywhere in the East of England can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure. Where the make cannot be identified, a charged diagnostic visit to your premises in Hertfordshire or the East of England confirms it, and we tell you the cost first.

What do we fix in Hertfordshire?

Hold-open not holdingMany floor springs can hold a door open at a set angle. When that stops working, the mechanism is usually worn.
Door will not centreA double-action door should stop at the closed position. Drift usually comes from a worn spring, a loose spindle or a box out of line.
Leaking hydraulic oilOil under the cover plate usually means the sealed unit has failed. It normally needs replacing rather than topping up.

How much does it cost in Hertfordshire?

The guide price is £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. Replacing a floor spring means lifting the door off, so shops in Hertfordshire and across the East of England can arrange the work outside trading hours. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Hertfordshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Hertfordshire, including Bishop's Stortford, Hatfield, Hemel Hempstead, Hertford.

What happens if I leave a faulty floor spring?

The door becomes harder to control and can slam or swing into people. A failed spring also strains the top pivot, the patch fittings and the glass. Toughened doors need care, because damage at an edge can cause the whole panel to break.

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.

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.
