Floor spring repairs Somerset

Landlords looking after glass entrances in Somerset or anywhere in the South West can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure. A failed floor spring at your Somerset premises often affects the top pivot and patch fittings too, so we check those parts before pricing the new unit.

What do we fix in Somerset?

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.

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.

How much does it cost in Somerset?

The guide price is £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. If a glass door at your Somerset premises has stopped closing properly, check for oil around the floor plate and send us a photo of it. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Somerset?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Somerset, including Bath, Bridgwater, Frome, Glastonbury.

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.

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.
