Glass entrance doors in Merseyside
Cutting a pocket for a floor spring depends on what is under the floor, so we check your Merseyside premises before quoting.
A glass door is only as secure as what backs it up, so a shutter or grille is worth pricing too for a Merseyside entrance in the North West. If your Merseyside shop has a step at the door, we raise access early, since a new door is a good moment to improve it.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Merseyside?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Merseyside, including Bebington, Birkenhead, Bootle, Huyton.
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.
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.
