Shop door repairs Dover | ShopFronts UK

Door repairs can be arranged before opening or after closing, so a Dover shop or any other premises in Kent can keep customers coming through. If your Dover 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.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 169 miles away, and send fitting teams across the South East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include CT14, CT16, CT17, and we also cover Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury nearby.

What can we sort out in Dover?

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.

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.

What does it cost in Dover?

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.

Rear and fire exit doors at Dover premises matter as much as the front entrance, and repairs anywhere in Kent should keep any fire rating intact. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Dover job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in CT14, CT16, CT17?

Yes. Dover and the CT14, CT16, CT17 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Dover 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.
