However, there are plenty of reasons to actually read what people have said about why they have given certain scores.  Know who you are speaking to › One on one customer service is becoming less and less common with the increasing online presence of businesses, but it is still important to know exactly who has told you what in regards to your automatic door repair quote or job.

6  Scratches › Scratches happen on aluminum doors easily, and more often than most would like, but there are ways in which you can repair these just as quickly.

It’s simple to repair these yourself, as long as you use the correct tools. › Firstly, the existing hinges on the door need to be tight. Check this first with a screwdriver and/or allen key. However, if this doesn’t work you can toe and heel the door.

7  Sensors › The automatic door has a sensor which knows when someone is approaching and tells the motor to turn, moving the doors. Equally, once you have entered or left the store it knows you are there and closes the door. In addition there are sensors which make sure no one is in the entranceway when the doors close; this prevents any injuries from occurring.  Power › Automatic doors are powered by electricity and this can be very dangerous. One electric shock is enough to kill an adult, although it is not always fatal. If you do not know what you are doing when you undertake the automatic doors repair you could electrocute yourself or the next person who uses the door. This is not something you want on your conscience.  Speed › You might be frustrated while you are waiting for your emergency automatic doors repair firm to arrive. However, even with this delay it is likely that they will have the door fixed quicker than if you tried to complete it yourself.  Warranty › If you complete a temporary repair and the doors break again you will need to spend more time and potentially more money having the doors fixed. A reputable automatic doors repair firm will provide a warranty for the work they have done and will quickly return to rectify any issues, if there are any.

8  Firstly, of course, there has to be a power source to the doors that you are using. Whether this a commercial or domestic door, most doors will give an indication that they are receiving this power by way of an indicator light or LED display.  There will usually be a way to reset the running of the doors, and this will make sure that the automatic door repair isn’t simply an overload or loss of power.  The runners that the doors slide on are fantastic traps for dirt and grime that will prevent the doors from working properly if there is much build up. Regular cleaning is the best way to stop this, and be especially careful in autumn and winter seasons.  If you are cleaning regularly but your automatic doors are not working and are in need of repair, check to see if there are any obstructions in the mechanisms of the door. It could be something simple like a stone, and so is easy to solve.  Another issue that can prevent your doors from working properly is if they have become misaligned, or the panels have shifted. With not too much force, these can be pushed back into place and will solve the problems.
