Storefront Door Repair
The aluminum-and-glass door every shop has, with the ailments every shop eventually gets.
What this service actually involves
Aluminum storefront doors fail in patterns their owners know by heart: the door drags the threshold, the deadlatch stops catching, the pivot grinds, the closer slams, and the MS-style hookbolt gets sticky at closing time. All of it is repairable, and repairing it early is dramatically cheaper than replacing a sagged door that chewed its frame.
The van handles pivots and continuous hinges, deadlatches and hookbolt locks, cylinders keyed into your system, thresholds and sweeps, and the alignment work that cures most symptoms at their source. Glass replacement is coordinated rather than pretended: the metal, locks and geometry are the locksmith's half, done properly.
Questions, answered straight
The door latches only when pulled hard.
Deadlatch and alignment, the most common storefront call there is. Usually cured in one visit without new hardware.
The bottom pivot screeches and the door leans.
Pivot wear; replaceable, and worth doing before the lean wears the header and threshold into bigger bills.
Can the shop door join our master keys?
Yes, storefront cylinders take standard and restricted keyways and join the same hierarchy as the interior doors.
