Steel, Glass, and Wood Commercial Door Repair
Each door type fails its own way. Hollow metal steel doors rust at the bottom, dent, and sag until the latch misses the strike. Aluminum-frame glass storefront doors wear out their pivots and closers, then start dragging the threshold. Wood doors swell, split at the hinges, and chew up their screw holes. We repair all three: welding and patching steel, rebuilding pivots and rails on storefront doors, and re-securing or re-machining wood doors so hardware bites into solid material again.
If your back-of-house steel door takes deliveries all day, say so — we'll spec the repair for the abuse it actually gets, not showroom conditions.
Frames, Hinges, and Door Closers
Half of "broken door" calls are really frame and hardware calls. A loose top hinge makes the whole door sag; a racked frame keeps the latch from finding the strike; a worn closer slams the door hard enough to rattle the glass. These are fixable problems — hinge replacement, frame straightening or strike adjustment, and closer adjustment or swap-out are routine work for us.
Fixing them early matters. A door that drags for six months grinds down its hinges, its closer, and its frame all at once, turning a small hardware bill into a replacement conversation.
When Replacement Beats Repair
Some doors aren't worth another patch. Steel rusted through at the base, a frame rotted or rusted from inside, a door that's been repaired three times in two years — at that point replacement costs less over the next five years than serial repairs. We replace commercial doors with their frames where needed, matching fire-rated, insulated, or storefront-style doors to what the opening requires.
We'll give you both numbers when it's a close call: the repair quote and the replacement quote, side by side, with a transparent quote before work begins and no hidden fees either way.
Common Questions
Do you repair storefront glass doors?
Yes. We service aluminum-frame glass storefront doors — pivots, hinges, closers, rails, and locks — and replace the door or frame when repair no longer makes sense.
Should I repair or replace my commercial door?
If the damage is in the hardware, frame alignment, or a repairable section, repair usually wins. If the door is rusted through, the frame is failing, or you're paying for repeat fixes, replacement costs less over time. We'll quote both when it's close.
Can you secure my door after a break-in?
Yes, 24/7. We board up or secure the opening immediately, then repair or replace the door and frame, and our commercial locksmith team can rekey or upgrade the locks in the same visit.
What does commercial door repair cost in NYC?
It depends on the door type, the damage, and whether the frame is involved. You get a transparent quote before work begins, no hidden fees.
