Shop door repairs in Washington

If your Washington 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

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

Washington is around 164 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. We cover NE37, NE38 and the surrounding streets, along with Chester-le-Street, Hebburn and Sunderland.

What do we fix in Washington?

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.
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 Washington?

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.

If the fault cannot be diagnosed remotely, a charged diagnostic visit to your Washington premises finds the cause, and we tell you the price of that visit first. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Washington job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you cover Washington?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Washington and across Tyne and Wear, including NE37, NE38. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Washington 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.
