A customer’s first impression of your business occurs when they walk through the door. Don’t let a faulty door leave the wrong impression in their mind. Contact Glass Doctor of Northeast Albuquerque to help keep your entrance in tip-top shape with our commercial door closer. Our service professionals are trained to install and repair door closers so that your business has an inviting and easily accessible entrance.
What is a Commercial Door Closer?
A commercial door closer allows your customers to open a heavy glass door easily and pass through without having to close the door physically. Glass Doctor of Northeast Albuquerque provides hydraulic closers that will help gain easier access to your building entrance. If a closer is installed properly, it will:
- Allow customers to feel some resistance as they open the door, showing them how heavy the door actually is.
- After the initial resistance, the door slowly glides open.
- As the customer walks into the store, letting go of the door, a spring located in the door closer forces the mechanism’s arm to close gently until the door returns to the frame.
These steps help customers smoothly enter your business and not let the door slam shut behind them.
Varying Styles of Door Closers
Commercial Door Closers come in a variety of styles, and Glass Doctor of Northeast Albuquerque can help you decide which best fits your door. The most common door closer styles are:
-
Regular Arm: Usually the most power efficient, it is mounted on the exterior of the door.
-
Top Jam: This type is used frequently for glass storefront doors.
-
Parallel Arm: These are most commonly used in schools because they can be less susceptible to vandalism
-
Concealed: These door closers are fitted into the door/doorframe and hidden from sight.
-
Surface-mounted: Fitted to the doorframe, usually this is most cost-effective.
-
Floor-spring: This door spring is concealed and mounted to the floor instead on in the door.
Installation
Glass Doctor of Northeast Albuquerque has trained professionals who perform the following steps to install your commercial door closer to your storefront door:
- Identify the right door closer for your storefront door.
- Prepare the door and doorframe for installation – taking measurements and dimensions.
- Install necessary hardware to both the doorframe and door.
- Connect both pieces of the commercial door closer.
Our service professionals take the utmost care to either install a new storefront door with a commercial door closer to your building or to add a door closer to an existing door.
