Two calls come from this area more than any others. A broken showroom front on the main road, and a clinic door that has stopped closing properly. The first is urgent because of the footpath. The second is urgent because the door is used a few hundred times a day and will only get worse.
A broken front facing the footpath
Broken glass over a busy footpath is a safety job before it is a glass job.
We clear the loose pieces, remove anything still held in the fittings, and board the opening. Then the shop can be locked and used.
We make the new panel to the measured size. Toughened glass (safety glass) cannot be cut afterwards. So nobody keeps your exact panel in stock. Anyone who says they do is talking about a thinner, weaker sheet. We give you a real date for the fit.
Doors that have dropped or stopped closing
On a clinic or showroom door, the fault is almost always the fitting, not the glass.
A floor spring is a wearing part. When a door starts to slam, drift open or catch on the floor, that spring has usually gone. Changing one is normally a two to three hour visit. Our van carries the common sizes.
We fit a closer made for the weight of your door and the heavy use it sees. A light-duty one on a clinic entrance will be back to the same fault inside a year.
How the job works
- Tell us about the jobSend a few photos, rough sizes and what you need. Use WhatsApp or the form. For a repair, a short video of the door moving helps a lot.
- We call you backUsually the same day. Where we can, we give you a rough price on the call. Then you know if a visit is worth your time.
- We come and measureWe measure the opening. We also check the walls, floor, ceiling and the way in. Your glass is made to these final sizes, so they must be right.
- You get a written priceIt shows the glass, the fittings and the fitting work as separate lines. If anything about the job changes, we tell you before we go ahead.
- We make it and fit itYou approve the price and pay the advance. Then we make your glass. Our team delivers it, fits it, checks the doors line up and clears the site.
