Glass entrance doors in Cumbria
Door changes across the North West can be booked out of hours, which keeps your Cumbria entrance in use during trading time where the job allows.
Busy entrances need strong gear, and we match the patch fittings, spring and handles to the weight and daily use of your Cumbria door. Cutting a pocket for a floor spring depends on what is under the floor, so we check your Cumbria premises before quoting.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Cumbria?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cumbria, including Barrow-in-Furness, Carlisle, Kendal, Penrith.
Do glass doors need a floor spring?
No, but most frameless glass doors use one, because there is no frame to carry a closer. The spring sits hidden in the floor and controls how the door swings and closes. A rail door can use an overhead closer to BS EN 1154 instead.
How do you lock a glass door?
A glass door is usually locked with a patch lock near the floor or a lock in the bottom rail, using a cylinder and key. For stronger protection, we add a shutter or internal grille, because the toughened glass is the weakest point of the door.
How do I make a glass door accessible?
Start with clear width, a low threshold and a light opening force. In England, Approved Document M gives a clear width of 775 mm for existing buildings, and a force of 30 N at the door edge for the first 30 degrees. Visible markings and contrasting handles also help.
