Door problems in Wilsonville tend to sort into two groups: older homes where the frames and jambs have taken decades of weather, and newer builds where the hardware was the cheapest part of the package and has already given up.

Birmingham-area red clay expands when it is wet and contracts hard when it dries out. That movement travels straight up into slabs and foundations, and door frames are usually the first place a homeowner notices it.
Humidity swells wood commercial doors and rusts the internals of hardware on doors that are propped open for ventilation, which is very common in kitchens and back-of-house areas.
Buildings move, and a commercial frame that has shifted with the slab under it puts the latch out of line with the strike, which is the single most common reason a business ends up with a back door that will not lock.
We see the pattern often enough across Shelby County that we usually know what we are looking at before we arrive.
Local factors we account for in Wilsonville: sustained humidity and soil movement — typical of the Birmingham metro.

- Establish whether you can tradeThe first question is whether the entrance is usable and safe today. Everything else follows from that.
- Assess door, frame and hardware togetherCommercial door problems are usually a chain: a worn hinge loads the closer, the closer over-torques the latch, and the latch fails.
- Work around your hours where we canRetail, restaurant and clinic doors often need to be worked on outside of trading hours, and we plan for that.
- Specify to the environmentKitchen, loading bay and customer entrance are three different specifications, and we fit to the one in front of us.
- Adjust for code and accessibilityOpening force, closing speed and latching all get set to the requirements the door has to meet. Around the metro we clear red clay dust out of tracks and mechanisms first, because it turns into grinding paste and will destroy new parts.
- Document what was doneParts, adjustments and anything we flagged but did not do, so you have a record for the next visit or for compliance.

- hardware grade and whether it is fire-rated

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Commercial door repair in Wilsonville: questions we get asked
Our door slams so hard it shakes the wall. What is wrong?
The closer's closing speed and latch speed are out of adjustment, or the closer has failed internally. Beyond the noise, slamming destroys hinges, frames and the door itself.
Is it worth repairing an old commercial door or should we replace it?
Hollow metal doors and aluminum entrances are built to be serviced and are usually worth repairing. We will tell you honestly when a door has reached the point where repair stops making sense.
Do you handle doors with electric strikes and access control?
Yes. We also find that a lot of access control complaints are actually mechanical: a door binding or a strike out of alignment makes perfectly good electronics look faulty.
Our back door will not latch unless someone pulls it. Is that serious?
It is a security failure and often an insurance issue. A door resting closed but not latched is not locked. It is usually a closer or hinge adjustment, and it should be dealt with quickly.
Can you work outside our business hours?
Yes, and for a lot of Wilsonville storefronts and restaurants that is the only sensible way to do it. Tell us your trading hours when you call and we will schedule around them.
Do you offer scheduled maintenance for multiple properties?
Yes. For property managers in and around Wilsonville it is far cheaper to have doors adjusted on a schedule than to pay emergency call-outs when they fail.
