Our clients get a detailed maintenance plan based on their particular situation. Here are some of the routine maintenance activities we recommend to keep automatic sliding doors, swing doors and revolving doors running smoothly:
Keeping moving parts such as hinges lubricated is key to keeping your doors working smoothly. Regularly lubricate all metal moving parts, but don’t lubricate plastic parts. If you are unsure about the correct lubricant or how to apply it, it is recommended that you call an AAADM certified technician. Doing this correctly ensures the longevity and reliability of your doors, preventing premature wear and tear.
Check the tracks of sliding doors and make sure the door can run freely. Any debris or obstruction in the tracks can hinder door operation, so it's crucial to keep them clean and clear for optimal performance.
Weather stripping around a swing door or revolving door forms a barrier for temperature difference. If you notice draft from the door even when it’s closed, then the weatherstripping will likely need to be replaced. Regular checks and timely replacement of weather stripping can significantly enhance energy efficiency and comfort within your premises.
Swing doors have a latch and strike which need to be well aligned so that your door forms a tight seal. Proper alignment also ensures security and ease of use, contributing to the overall functionality of your door system.
The threshold under your swing door should remain tight so that the elements and rodents are kept out. When the threshold changes then it’s time to call a technician. Maintaining a secure and intact threshold is essential for the safety and hygiene of your environment, preventing unwanted guests and water ingress.
Scheduling routine maintenance for your commercial doors is essential to ensure reliable performance and long-term cost savings. With regular care, your entry door will operate more efficiently, reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.
Maintenance also helps extend the lifespan of your doors and ensures they meet safety and accessibility standards, which is critical for automatic door openers and storefront entry doors in high-traffic businesses.
Our preventative maintenance plans in include thorough inspections, adjustments, and repairs for all types of commercial doors, from sliding doors to electric door operators. By investing in maintenance, you minimize disruptions, keep your doors functioning at their best, and maintain a safe and accessible environment for employees and customers.
