Commercial Door Repairs in Newcastle and the North East

A business door has to open all day and lock every night. When a shopfront will not lock at closing time, an office entrance slams on its closer or a communal door in a block of flats stops latching, the problem quickly becomes a security one.

We repair commercial doors for business owners, landlords and managing agents across Newcastle and the North East, working on locks, cylinders, closers, hinges and glass in aluminium and uPVC doors.

Guaranteed workmanship.

Commercial door faults we put right

  • Shop or office doors that will not lock at the end of the day
  • Door closers that slam, leak or no longer pull the door shut
  • Communal entrance doors that fail to latch
  • Cylinders that need changing after keys go missing
  • Doors that have dropped and catch on the frame or floor
  • Broken glass in an entrance door or side panel

Doors that have to lock every night

Commercial doors see hundreds of openings a day, so wear builds faster than on any house door. Hinges loosen, pivots wear and the door drops a little at a time until the lock no longer lines up with its keep. Catching that early keeps the premises secure.

Shopfront and office entrance doors

Most shopfront and office entrances are aluminium. We repair and replace locks, cylinders, handles, closers and hinges on these doors and replace glass within the existing frames. Our aluminium window and door repairs page covers the material in more depth, including floor springs and pivots.

Communal entrances in flats and HMOs

Shared entrance doors on flats and houses in multiple occupation are opened by every resident and visitor. Their mechanisms and closers are among the most frequent repairs we carry out in towns such as North Shields, along with cylinders changed when keys go astray. A communal door that no longer closes on its own leaves every flat behind it less secure, so these jobs are worth reporting promptly.

Door closers that slam or won't close

The closer controls how fast a door swings shut and how firmly it latches. A slamming door, one that drifts open or one that stops short of the frame each point to a different issue. Many closers can be adjusted; one that leaks oil or has worn out is replaced. Telling us which of those you are seeing helps us arrive with the right part.

Locks and cylinders on business premises

Deadlocks, multipoint locks and euro cylinders are all repaired or replaced on business doors. When a member of staff leaves with a key, or a tenancy changes in a shared building, a cylinder change restores control without replacing the lock body. Anti snap, anti pick and anti drill cylinders can be fitted at the same time.

24 hour make-safe when premises can't be secured

If a business cannot be locked, or a glass panel has been smashed, our emergency repairs service runs a 24 hour call out covering boarding and make safe work. Our guide to boarding up after a break-in explains what happens on that first visit and how the permanent repair follows.

Working with landlords and managing agents

We work for domestic and commercial customers, including landlords and agents who look after several properties. Clear photographs can sometimes help us identify a fault before attending, though the free quotation normally follows an in-person inspection. All work is fully insured.
