Shop door repairs in St Albans

If the fault cannot be diagnosed remotely, a charged diagnostic visit to your St Albans premises finds the cause, and we tell you the price of that visit first.

Aluminium glazed entrance with arched door

Rear and fire exit doors at St Albans premises matter as much as the front entrance, and repairs anywhere in Hertfordshire should keep any fire rating intact. After a forced entry in St Albans or elsewhere in Hertfordshire, a door can look fine but still have a bent frame or a damaged lock pocket.

St Albans is around 86 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. We cover AL1, AL2 and the surrounding streets, along with Hatfield, Hemel Hempstead and Welwyn Garden City.

What can we sort out in St Albans?

Broken handles and push platesLoose or snapped door furniture is refixed or replaced, with care taken around glass doors.
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.
Bent door after forced entryAluminium stiles and frames can twist under a jemmy. We straighten what we can and replace sections that have torn.

What does it cost in St Albans?

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.

Send a short video of your St Albans door opening and closing, because seeing it move often tells us more than a still photo can. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a St Albans shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Do you work in AL1, AL2?

Yes. St Albans and the AL1, AL2 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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 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.

Can you board up a shop in St Albans out of hours?

Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in St Albans. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
