Floor spring repairs Staffordshire

Landlords looking after glass entrances in Staffordshire or anywhere in the West Midlands can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure. A failed floor spring at your Staffordshire 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 Staffordshire?

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

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.

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.

How much does it cost in Staffordshire?

Expect £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. A photo of the cover plate and door often identifies a floor spring fault, which can save your Staffordshire shop a diagnostic visit. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Staffordshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Staffordshire, including Burton upon Trent, Cannock, Leek, Lichfield.

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.
