Shop door repairs Darlington

Send a short video of your Darlington door opening and closing, because seeing it move often tells us more than a still photo can. Rear and fire exit doors at Darlington premises matter as much as the front entrance, and repairs anywhere in County Durham should keep any fire rating intact.

Work in Darlington is run from Birmingham, roughly 138 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Our Darlington work takes in DL1, DL2, DL3. Neighbouring Newton Aycliffe and Stockton-on-Tees are covered too.

Which faults do we deal with in Darlington?

Bent door after forced entryAluminium stiles and frames can twist under a jemmy. We straighten what we can and replace sections that have torn.

Rear and fire exit doorsSteel, timber and composite doors at the back of the shop get the same checks, and any fire rating is kept in place.

Worn seals and thresholdsPerished brushes, gaskets and threshold plates let in rain, grit and cold air, and they are simple to renew.

What does it cost in Darlington?

Repairing a shop door costs £125 to £595 ex VAT per door, with glass, locks and floor springs priced on their own if they also need work. Photos and a short video of the door moving often let us price it remotely. If they do not, a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, finds the cause, and we give you that cost first.

If your Darlington shop door catches the floor or only locks when pushed, the cause is usually a worn pivot, hinge or closer, rather than a failed door. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Darlington job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in DL1, DL2, DL3?

Yes. Darlington and the DL1, DL2, DL3 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of County Durham. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

Will a repair make my door wheelchair accessible?

Not on its own, although a lighter closer and a lower threshold can help. Approved Document M gives a 775 mm clear width for existing buildings in England. The Equality Act 2010 expects reasonable adjustments, so a wider change may be worth discussing.

Can you repair the fire exit door at the back of my shop?

Yes, provided the repair keeps the door's fire performance. Closers, hinges and seals on FD30 and FD60 doors must suit the tested door. In England and Wales, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep them in good repair.

What do I do if my shop in Darlington is broken into?

Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
