Common Trade Diagnostic Faults
High-street shops in St Albans frequently require rapid fixes for slamming Dorma closers.
- Aluminium shop doors scraping heavily against the threshold, making it difficult for customers to enter.
- Glass office doors violently slamming shut causing shatter risks to employees and clients.
- Frameless glass doors misaligning at the top pivot, preventing the bottom lock from engaging.
- Adams Rite commercial locks failing to engage properly, leaving the retail premises unsecured overnight.
- Heavy metal industrial doors dropping on their hinges, preventing the crash bar from locking.
