Automatic Door Repair in Arapahoe County

Stanley, Horton, Besam, Record, Nabco, dormakaba, ASSA ABLOY, and GEZE, plus most of the older equipment those companies absorbed over the years. Stanley operators are the ones we see most in US retail and grocery. You do not need to know who installed yours. Send a photo of the header and we can usually identify the system before the truck rolls.

That is called ghosting, and it means the sensor has failed. When a door starts opening at random with nobody in front of it, the sensor is bad and needs replacing. Adjusting or reprogramming will not hold, because the part itself has gone.

Usually yes. Sourcing uncommon parts and discontinued hardware is a large part of what we do, and many older operators were absorbed by the manufacturers still trading today, so the parts have a current equivalent. Where a part genuinely no longer exists, the operator can normally be replaced without touching the panels or the framing, which costs a fraction of a new entrance.

It can be, and it is worth treating as urgent. A door that will not close leaves the building open and unconditioned. A door that closes too fast or too hard is a strike risk, especially for older people and children. Both usually trace to the operator, the closing force setting, or a presence sensor that is no longer holding the door.

Both, and which one depends on what the sensor is doing. A dirty lens or a sensitivity setting we correct on site. A sensor that has started ghosting, opening the door at random, has failed and gets replaced. We do not adjust a dead part and call it fixed.

Yes. When the operator has reached the end, we replace it and match the new unit to the door, the traffic it takes, and the activation setup already in place. We will not tell you it needs replacing before we have seen it run, because plenty of doors that look finished only need a carrier and a belt.

Yes. Scheduled maintenance is where automatic doors pay you back, because sensors drift and belts stretch gradually rather than failing all at once. We run quarterly, semi-annual, or annual visits with a written record of what was checked, adjusted, and replaced.

Yes. Our technicians are trained directly on the operators they service, and between Stanley, Horton, Besam, Record, Nabco, and Dorma that covers most of what is installed out there. If you can send a photo of the header before the visit, we will have the right parts on the truck instead of making it a two-trip job.

Commercial automatic door calls get priority scheduling, and we run same day or next day in most of our markets depending on capacity in your area. If the door is stuck open and the building is exposed, say so when you call and we will treat it as an emergency.

An automatic sliding door service call is $250, and free on the Door Care membership. What the repair costs depends on which of the three usual culprits failed: the motor, the controller or the sensor. Programming and brand matter as much as the part, so we price it after seeing the door. Where the operator is past saving rather than repairable, a full ADA single door operator kit including two waterproof push-to-open buttons averages about $7,390, and a double door kit about $13,140. Members take 15 percent off. All of that includes installation, and we quote flat-rate before anything is ordered.
