The short answer
A door closer that squeaks or creaks usually has a dry pivot or a loose fixing. Cleaning, grease and tightening often fix those without a new part. A grind from inside the closer, or a bang as the door shuts, means it is wearing out. Then a new closer is the lasting fix.
Why it happens
Usually one of these 4 things, commonest first. Each one says how to tell, and what we do about it.
The top pivot has run dry
- How to tell
- A squeak comes from the top corner of the door as it swings. On a frameless door, that is the pivot, the pin the door turns on.
- What we do
- We clean away old oil and grease the part that is making the sound. Then we open and close the door again and again to check it stays quiet.

- How to tell
- A creak or a click comes as the door starts to move and takes its weight. The sound then fades as the door carries on swinging.
- What we do
- We tighten the fixing that has eased and check the others nearby. If the door has settled and now touches something, we set it back square on the same visit.

- How to tell
- A grinding or clicking comes from the floor spring itself, the closer set into the floor. It quietens after greasing, then comes back after a while.
- What we do
- Grease quietens a worn closer only for a time. A new closer is the lasting fix, and you can choose when to fit it.

- How to tell
- The loudest sound is a thump as the door shuts, not a squeak. There may be oil on the floor near the closer, or streaks under an overhead arm.
- What we do
- Neither setting nor grease will quieten a closer that has lost its oil. We fit a new one suited to the door and set it to close softly.

What you can check first
These checks are safe to do yourself. A photo or a short video of what you find helps us come prepared.
- While someone else opens the door, note whether the sound is high up or at the floor.
- Notice when the noise comes: as the door starts, during the swing, or as it shuts.
- Look for an oily ring on the floor, or oil streaks under an overhead arm.
- Do not spray oil on the pivot or closer, as it soon makes the noise worse.

Is a noisy door closer about to stop working?
Not always. A squeak from a dry pivot is a small job, and the closer may still be healthy. A grind from inside it, or a bang as the door shuts, means real wear. That closer is worth changing before it fails.
On a frameless door, is the noise from the closer or from the hinges?
A frameless door on a floor spring has no side hinges. It turns on a pivot at the top and on the floor spring at the bottom. So the sound comes from one of those two places. On a framed door, the closer arm and the side hinges can both make noise.
Is it worth greasing a closer that will need replacing anyway?
It can be. Grease can keep a worn closer quiet for a while, and you pick when to change it. If the closer is also leaking or slamming, grease will not help. Then changing it sooner makes more sense.
