Shop door repairs East Sussex

Send a short video of your East Sussex door opening and closing, because seeing it move often tells us more than a still photo can. After a forced entry in East Sussex or elsewhere in the South East, a door can look fine but still have a bent frame or a damaged lock pocket.

What do we fix in East Sussex?

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.

Dropped or sagging doorWorn hinges, pivots or floor springs let the door sink. We reset the door or replace the worn part so that it clears the floor again.

How much does it cost in East Sussex?

Budget £125 to £595 ex VAT per door. If the fault cannot be diagnosed remotely, a charged diagnostic visit to your East Sussex premises finds the cause, and we tell you the price of that visit first. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of East Sussex?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across East Sussex, including Brighton, Eastbourne, Hastings, Lewes.

When is it worth replacing the door instead?

Replacement makes sense when the frame is twisted, the leaf is corroded or rotten, or the same repair keeps coming back. We will tell you if a repair is unlikely to last. A new entrance door set is then priced as a separate job.

Can a shop door be repaired after a break-in?

Often yes, if the leaf and frame are still straight. Bent aluminium sections and torn lock pockets may need replacing. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for your insurer, although whether a claim is paid is always their decision.

Why does my shop door keep sticking?

A sticking door usually has worn hinges or pivots, a tired floor spring or a frame that has moved. Seals and thresholds can also catch. Planing or forcing the door rarely cures it, so we find the cause first and repair that.
