Commercial door closers are a great way to gain a positive first impression with your customers. If your storefront door is difficult to open, or too heavy for customers to easily enter and exit through then it could leave a bad taste in their mouth regarding your business. Glass Doctor of Syracuse, NY provides commercial door closers to businesses, performing installation, repair, replacement, and maintenance today!
Styles of Commercial Door Closers
Glass Doctor of Syracuse, NY offers our customers many different types of door closers. Picking a style can be tricky, a door closer can reflect the style of your business or draw the eyes of customers to it. Consider these questions before you decide on a style: What aesthetic is your business? Is the door closer being attached to a new door or being installed onto an existing door? What is your budget?
Styles range from top-attaching door closers to hidden door closers. Glass Doctor provides the following styles:
-
Top Jam: is used frequently on glass storefront doors.
-
Parallel Arm: because of their inability to be vandalized, they are used in schools.
-
Regular Arm: is the most power efficient and mounted on the exterior of the door.
-
Floor-Spring: this type is concealed and mounted to the floor.
-
Concealed: fitted into the door or the doorframe, this closer is hidden from sight.
-
Surface-Mounted: usually the most cost-effective, this is fitted to the doorframe.
Repair and Maintenance
Glass Doctor of Syracuse, NY’s technicians frequently repair and replace door closers because of three key problems:
- Incorrect Types of Door Closers - Heavy storefront doors require strong door closers with strong springs. These springs hold the force and weight of the door as it slowly closes. If the door has the wrong type of closer, it poses the safety risk of misalignment that can damage the closer or the actual door.
- Seal Repairs and Low Oil Levels - Broken seals expose clearance gaps, leaving hardware vulnerable to lubricant leaks. These oil leaks generally indicate a mechanical problem with the door closer, such as a broken O-ring, a missing screw, or a failed seal. It is imperative that a professional replaces the oil in a door closer; lack of lubrications causes the door to open or close too quickly and leads to safety risks.
- Incorrectly Installed and Adjusted Door Closers - Improperly installed door closers lead to the risk of misalignment and make it more difficult to open and close the storefront door. Glass Doctor specialists bring the right tools to install and adjust your commercial door closers to ensure that:
- Doors remain in good working conditions.
- The lifespan of your door closer is maximized.
- Abnormal or unexpected movements of the door are prevented.
If your door closer is under warranty, don’t void the contract by having an untrained worker attempt repair on it. The professional and courteous technicians of Glass Doctor of Syracuse, NY are experts in their field and have extensive training in installing, repairing, replacing, and maintaining commercial door closers.
