Common Trade Diagnostic Faults
Busy high-street shops in Finchley frequently depend on rapid fixes for slamming Dorma closers.
- Commercial locks failing to engage properly, leaving business premises unsecured after hours.
- Automatic doors remaining stuck open or failing to detect pedestrians due to faulty motion sensors.
- Floor springs leaking hydraulic fluid, indicating a blown internal seal that requires urgent extraction.
- Aluminium shopfront doors scraping heavily on the floor, making them difficult for clients to operate.
