Shop door repairs Kent | ShopFronts UK

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

What do we fix in Kent?

Broken handles and push platesLoose or snapped door furniture is refixed or replaced, with care taken around glass doors.

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

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.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Kent?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Kent, including Ashford, Canterbury, Chatham, Dartford.

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.

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.
