Shop door repairs in Gravesend

If your Gravesend 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.

Aluminium glazed entrance with arched door

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

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 123 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 DA11, DA12, and we also cover Grays, Thurrock and Dartford nearby.

What does it cost in Gravesend?

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.

Door repairs can be arranged before opening or after closing, so a Gravesend shop or any other premises in Kent can keep customers coming through. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Gravesend shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Can you come out to Gravesend for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Gravesend. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

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.

Can you board up a shop in Gravesend out of hours?

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