How Door Closers Work

Manual door closers let users easily open doors without the need to physically close them. When a manual door closer is properly installed, an individual will experience some resistance when opening the door. Following this initial resistance, the door will glide open. When resistance is no longer applied, a spring in the door closer will force it to close gently as it returns to its frame.

Door Closer Repair

When a door closer is improperly installed or maintained, serious safety concerns may result. Door closer repair should always be conducted by a professional, who will ensure that the correct door closer is installed, it is properly adjusted and locks securely.

Incorrect door closer: Heavier doors require a strong closer with heavy-duty springs. When a door has the wrong type of closer installed, it is a safety hazard and misalignment and door damage can occur.

Lack of lubrication will cause your door to open or close too quickly, which could cause injury to your users or the door itself.
