Technical Expertise

Door Hardware & Automation

A shopfront is only as good as its operation. We diagnose and replace faulty Concealed Transom Closers and Low-E Glass Units. If your heavy glass door is dragging or slamming, it often indicates a failure in the floor spring mechanism. Our engineers in Old Ford carry specialized lifting equipment to safely remove heavy leaves and replace the hydraulic units, restoring smooth, safe operation.

Aluminium Systems Expertise

Aluminium is the material of choice for modern commercial entrances in Old Ford due to its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. We utilize Floor Springs to ensure thermal efficiency, reducing your energy bills. Our profiles can be finished in any standard RAL colour using durable Anti-Finger Trap Stiles, ensuring your brand identity is perfectly matched and weather-resistant for years to come.

⚠️ Regulatory Compliance in Old Ford

Commercial entrances must meet strict UK regulations. We ensure your doors comply with the Equality Act 2010 (DDA Compliance), providing clear opening widths and low-threshold access for wheelchair users. Furthermore, all our powered doors meet BS EN 16005 safety standards, utilizing safety sensors to prevent impact injuries.
