Door Closer Repair Service

Make a sparkling first impression and keep your customers safe by ensuring your commercial doors are in tip-top shape. Glass Doctor^® of Kalamazoo, MI, provides repair and maintenance services for manual door closers.

How Door Closers Work

Manual door closers let doors open easily without having to close them. When a manual door closer is properly installed, users should feel some resistance as the door is opened, after which, the door slides smoothly open. When the resistance is no longer applied, a spring door closer allows the door to close gently while returning to the frame.

Common Door Closer Issues

Incorrect Door Closers

Heavy doors need strong door closers with hefty springs. If the wrong door closer is installed, it can pose safety concerns, lead to misalignments and cause damage to your expensive door.

Improperly Installed or Adjusted Door Closers

It is vital to install and maintain door closers using the correct tools. The glass specialists at Glass Doctor of Kalamazoo, MI, understand that proper installation and adjustment increases the lifespan of commercial doors and keeps them working well. When a door closer is well-maintained and the spring is adjusted, it prevents doorframe damage, misalignments and unexpected door movement.

Seal Repairs and Low Oil Levels

Clearance gaps and damaged seals leave door closer hardware exposed and lead to leaking lubricant. An oil leak often indicates a mechanical problem, such as a missing screw, broken O-rings or dissipated seal. The team at Glass Doctor of Kalamazoo, MI, will replace your door closer oil, preventing further damage.
