Fire Door Closer Repairs in County Down: questions
My door slams. Is that a fault?
Yes. A slamming door wears hinges and frames and can injure users. The closing speed and latching action can usually be adjusted.
Why won't my fire door close properly?
Common causes are a closer set too weak, a latch out of line with the keep, dropped hinges, a seal binding at the edge, or flooring that has raised the threshold. We find the cause before adjusting the closer.
