Floor spring repairs Norfolk

A failed floor spring at your Norfolk premises often affects the top pivot and patch fittings too, so we check those parts before pricing the new unit. A photo of the cover plate and door often identifies a floor spring fault, which can save your Norfolk shop a diagnostic visit.

What do we fix in Norfolk?

Leaking hydraulic oilOil under the cover plate usually means the sealed unit has failed. It normally needs replacing rather than topping up.

Worn top pivot or patchTop pivots, bottom straps and patch fittings wear alongside the spring, so we check them while the door is off.

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

How much does it cost in Norfolk?

Expect £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. Replacing a floor spring means lifting the door off, so shops in Norfolk and across the East of England can arrange the work outside trading hours. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Norfolk?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Norfolk, including Dereham, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn, Norwich.

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.

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.

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.
