Storefront Door Services We Handle

Everything that keeps a commercial glass entry opening smoothly and locking securely – repaired or replaced.

Panic Bars & Exit Devices

Service and replacement of rim, mortise and vertical-rod exit devices – keeping your egress compliant and your after-hours entry locked tight.

Mortise locks, hookbolts, cylinder swaps and rekeys – including Mul-T-Lock high-security cylinders for entrances that see heavy traffic.

Electric strikes, maglocks, keypads and Lockly smart locks installed and serviced so staff and deliveries get in without handing out keys.

How Storefront Door Service Works

1

Call or Request a Free Estimate

Tell us the door type and the problem – sticking closer, dead lock, misaligned frame. We schedule around your business hours.

2

On-Site Diagnosis

We inspect the closer, hinges/pivots, alignment, latch and lock, then give you a written scope and price before any work begins.

3

Repair or Replace

Most storefront fixes are done the same visit. We carry common closers, exit-device parts and cylinders on the truck.

4

Test & Sign Off

We cycle the door, confirm it latches and locks cleanly, and make sure your exit hardware stays code-compliant before we leave.

Pro Tip: Catch a Failing Storefront Door Early

A door that starts slamming or won’t self-close is almost always a dying closer – and it’s the number-one storefront call we get in Charleston’s humidity and salt air. Left alone, a hard-slamming door strains the pivots and the glass frame, turning a $ closer adjustment into a full door replacement.

  • Door slams or won’t latch → have the closer adjusted before the frame racks.
  • Panic bar rattles or sticks → service the exit device before an inspection flags it.
  • Door drags on the threshold → worn pivots; realign before the glass corner cracks.
  • Key sticks or turns rough → rekey or replace the cylinder before you’re locked out.

Storefront Door Services FAQ

Most storefront repairs – closer adjustments, latch problems, lock changes and common exit-device fixes – are handled same day. We stock frequent parts on the truck so we can diagnose and complete the work in one visit whenever possible.

Usually yes. Dragging aluminum doors are typically worn top/bottom pivots, a failing closer, or a racked frame. We realign the door, replace pivots and adjust or rebuild the closer so it swings and latches correctly – often for far less than a full replacement.

We service and replace rim, mortise and vertical-rod exit devices and make sure the egress hardware meets code so your door passes inspection while still locking securely from the outside after hours.

Yes. As Lockly-certified installers we add keypads, smart locks, electric strikes and access control to most aluminum storefront doors, so you control who enters without handing out physical keys.

Yes – we provide a free estimate on your storefront door work and give you a written scope and price before starting. You approve it first, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
