Commercial doors take far more abuse than any home door. Here is what fails, answered from the field by JDM elite technician Yuval.
After the closer and the hinges
We come after the handyman
More moving parts than a home door
After the closer and the hinges, it is the push bar, the panic device. It takes a hit every time someone leaves, all day long, and it has to keep releasing properly because that is the door people go out of in an emergency.
Because we specialize in doors and a handyman does not. We are good at sourcing very uncommon parts and special hardware, and we know how to repair a door without damaging it. We follow handymen regularly, and usually somebody has added a screw somewhere thinking it was a smart idea, which only makes the repair bigger than it needed to be.
A commercial door has more moving parts and far more use. On top of hinges and a lock, it has a hydraulic door closer that shuts it automatically, and it is opened constantly all day. That is why hinges and closers wear out fastest. We repair those and often upgrade the door to heavy-duty hardware built for the traffic.
From Gal Cohen, Field Area Manager: "I have been on commercial door repair jobs since 2012, and our crews now run them across Florida, New York, Georgia, Colorado, Texas and South Carolina. Most repairs we handle wrap up in roughly 2 hours, same-day, and you can see the real before-and-afters in the photos and videos on this page."
JDM repairs and replaces commercial doors of every kind: automatic sliding entries, swing and entrance doors, fire-rated assemblies, hollow metal and steel security doors, and aluminum storefront entrances. Commercial doors run far more daily cycles than residential ones and face fire codes, ADA rules, and security demands, so a failure shuts down access and revenue. Our commercial techs keep you open.
Automatic sliding doors for retail and medical sites get calibrated and sensor-tuned for safe, smooth operation. Fire-rated doors get their closers, hinges, latching hardware, and seals repaired so the assembly works the way it was rated to. Steel and hollow metal doors and aluminum storefront entrances are core work for our crews, and when a door is too far gone to repair we replace the assembly rather than patch it.
Businesses pick us for solutions that balance security, accessibility, energy use, and the look of your brand. We schedule around your hours, run priority emergency service when a door failure stops operations, and offer maintenance plans that catch small issues before they become costly ones. From the first walkthrough to the final walkthrough, every job gets the same careful attention.

★★★★★ Verified Google Reviews ★★★★★ · a month ago"After I made an appointment I decided I was going to try and do it myself. Michael FaceTimed me, walked me through what to do, then call back if I still needed him. An hour later I called him and he was at my house in 35 minutes. Some of the best service I've ever received from a contractor. He finished in two hours and went above and beyond. The same-day service was incredible. Absolute professionals."
★★★★★ · a year ago"After a couple of hiccups with getting our repair done by someone else, our technician Richard showed up on time (actually half an hour earlier than the appointment time). He was very polite and got the job done in the time he told us it would take. Our glass door now glides smoothly and is able to lock again. I highly recommend Richard, he represented his company very well. I will definitely consider using them in the future!"
★★★★★ · 9 months ago"David, thank you so much for taking the time to explain everything to us. He was so patient, and I appreciate him doing a clean and awesome job. He was respectful of my home and cleaned up after the work was complete. Now my door slides like new, quiet, and smooth. Again, thank you David."

Everything below is work our technicians handle on a standard commercial door repair call, with the common parts stocked on the truck. If the piece giving you trouble is on this list, one visit usually covers it.
We come on-site, look at your existing door systems, and pin down what is failing. We also talk through how the door is used, your timeline, and your budget so the plan fits your operation.
We build a plan around your specific repair or replacement, with attention to how the door works, security, fire safety, ADA compliance, and the look of your building.
Our certified technicians do the work with commercial-grade materials and current methods, and we schedule around your hours so your business keeps running and the site stays safe.
We test every part, sensors, closers, locks, fire ratings, and safety features, and confirm the door runs clean and meets all applicable codes before we close out the job.
The jobs behind most of our commercial calls, from the parts that wear on a schedule to the doors that cannot wait until morning.
You can see daylight under the front door, or rain tracks inside every time there is a storm. Look at the aluminum saddle across the bottom of the opening. If its edge is worn round and flat, the door sweep has nothing left to seal against.
That saddle is the threshold, and it takes every cart, hand truck, and shoe that crosses your entrance. Commercial door threshold replacement comes up sooner on a busy door than most owners expect. On a pair of doors it fails twice over, because the two halves stop meeting and the seal between the leaves closes on nothing.
We measure the opening and the frame profile before ordering, since a saddle that is close is not a saddle that fits. The old unit comes out, the substrate underneath is cleaned and sealed, and the new threshold is set in sealant and anchored into solid material. Then we reset the sweep height and close the door on it to check the seal across the full width, not only at the latch.
What you will notice
Staff have started pulling the door toward them to get the key to turn. That is the tell. The bolt is hitting the lip of the strike instead of going into it, and it is worth dealing with before it becomes a security problem.
Doors move. Hinges wear, pivots settle, an aluminum storefront door racks slightly out of square under daily traffic, and a closer starts pulling the leaf in on a different line than it used to. The lock itself is usually fine. Where it sits relative to the frame is not.
The one to take seriously is a deadlatch on a storefront door. Once the door is out of line, the small plunger beside the bolt gets damaged, and a damaged plunger is what lets a locked door be pushed open. The door looks shut, and it is not.
So we check the door in its frame first and the hardware second: reset hinges or pivots, square the leaf, move or replace the strike, and change the latch where the bolt or plunger is worn. Where an electric strike or a card reader sits in the opening, we test it under power as well as by hand, because a latch that works on a key can still fail on the fob.
What you will notice
A commercial door becomes an emergency in one of two directions. It is stuck open, so you cannot secure the building and nothing else matters until you can. Or it is stuck shut on a door people need, which on an exit door is a life safety problem rather than a Monday problem.
The first thing we do on an emergency commercial door repair call is separate securing the opening from fixing the door. Those are two different jobs, and they do not always finish on the same visit.
A storefront with a failed deadlatch can be secured today by swapping the lock or fitting a temporary cylinder, even when the replacement latch is a week out. An automatic slider that has lost its operator can be locked down in manual mode so the entrance still works as a swing door. Getting the building safe first is what buys time to do the repair properly.
What we can finish in one visit comes down to parts. Closers, hinges, pivots, latches, strikes, and thresholds are common enough that we carry them. Operators, control boards, and anything proprietary to a system get identified on the visit and ordered, with the opening left secure in the meantime. We run same-day emergency service where we have capacity in your area, and we say so on the phone rather than after.
What you will notice
Commercial doors rarely break all at once. They drift. A closer loses a little pressure every month until the door no longer latches on its own. Sensor timing creeps until the door closes on a cart. A hinge wears until the latch sits a few millimeters below the strike.
Each of those is a small adjustment while it is small, and a parts job once it has been left. That gap is the whole argument for commercial door maintenance: the same fix costs a fraction on a scheduled visit, and it happens while the building is quiet instead of during trading hours with a technician working across your entrance.
It suits some buildings more than others. A door that cycles a few hundred times a day, an entrance on a property that gets audited, or a site where an out of service door costs real money will all pay for a schedule. A back office door that opens twice a day will not. We will tell you which of your openings belong on one and which are better left on call.
What you will notice
Most of the doors in an office building are not entrances. They are suite doors off a shared corridor, conference and private office doors, server and storage rooms with their own locks. They see less weather than a storefront and far more handling, so they fail at the hardware instead of the frame.
The list is short and we see it every week. A closer that slams or no longer pulls the door shut. A lever that has dropped on its spindle. An office lockset where the button will not hold. A door that has swollen or dropped just enough to catch the frame.
On a suite door there is often a card reader or an electric strike in the mix, which turns a simple latch fault into a question of whether the hardware or the power is at fault. We test both before replacing either.
We work on occupied floors, which mostly means working around people. Suite doors get done before opening or after close where a tenant needs the office quiet, and we carry the common levers, closers, and strike plates so a floor of small faults is one visit rather than three.
What you will notice
There is a line of daylight around the closed door, a whistle on a windy day, and an entrance that never feels shut no matter how hard the closer pulls. Air you are paying to cool is going out through that gap all day.
Commercial door weatherstripping is not one product, which is why a trip to the hardware store rarely settles it. There is gasket in the frame stop, a sweep along the bottom of the leaf, an astragal between a pair of doors, and on storefront doors a pile strip set into a slot that wipes against the mating stile.
Each one fails its own way. Gasket takes a set and stops springing back. Sweeps wear down against the threshold. Pile packs flat and loses the brush that does the sealing. From inside the building they all feel the same, which is why the part gets misdiagnosed so often.
We match the profile to your door before ordering, because slot widths and gasket shapes are not interchangeable between manufacturers. It goes in with the door closed on it, so the seal is set to the gap the door has now rather than the gap it had when it was new.

Our licensed tech arrives with common parts on the truck. Most commercial doors jobs are completed in a single visit.
We test the repair, walk you through the work, and make sure everything is running smoothly before we leave.
Ask us to check your door closer before it takes the hinges with it.
Left alone, a worn closer drags the door and takes the hinges with it. We swap failing pivots for a continuous hinge built for constant traffic, and our crews do not get callbacks on the ones they fit.
We service Stanley, Horton, Besam, Record, Nabco, and Dorma systems. We diagnose the header, drive train, sensors, and safety beams, then replace carrier assemblies, microprocessors, and motors on any major brand.
When a commercial door is past repairing, we replace the slab, the frame, or the full assembly in aluminum, hollow metal, or steel, matched to the existing opening and hardware so your entrance keeps working the way your staff and customers expect.
We repair activation sensors, overhead infrared, door-edge safety beams, and emergency breakout hardware, then test it to ANSI A156.10 activation and reopen timing standards.
We test opening force, adjust closing speed, check threshold height, and audit reach range. You get a written compliance report you can hand to a regulator or insurer.
We service LCN, Norton, Sargent, Yale, and Best closers, plus panic hardware, electric strikes, access control, and exit devices, so the door opens, closes, and locks on spec.
A commercial door maintenance visit covers the parts that fail on a schedule: closers checked for force and speed, hinges and pivots for wear, sensors and safety circuits tested, locks and exit devices cycled, tracks and running gear cleaned and lubricated, and seals and thresholds inspected. You get a written report each visit. We run quarterly, semi-annual, or annual schedules depending on how hard the door works.
We repair heavy commercial sliding doors and patio sliders at offices, clinics, and multifamily buildings so they run smooth and safe through daily traffic.
We fix storefront entrances, pivots, closers, and locks fast so your business stays open and secure while we work.

Here are straight answers to the questions we hear most about commercial door repair.
We service automatic sliding and swing doors, aluminum storefront entrances, hollow metal and steel security doors, fire-rated door assemblies, and interior commercial doors, along with the closers, panic hardware, locks, and sensors on them. We do not service rolling steel, roll-up, loading-dock, or high-speed doors.
We offer priority emergency service for commercial clients because a malfunctioning door can halt operations and compromise security. In most cases we can have a technician on-site within a few hours of your call, and we carry common commercial parts on our vehicles to resolve issues quickly.
A maintenance visit checks the things that wear on a schedule rather than waiting for them to fail. We measure closer force and closing speed, check hinges and pivots for play, test sensors and safety circuits, cycle locks and exit devices, clean and lubricate tracks and running gear, and inspect seals and thresholds. Anything out of spec gets adjusted on the visit, and anything needing a part gets quoted. You keep the written report.
Yes, we offer customizable preventive maintenance programs that include scheduled inspections, lubrication, adjustment, and testing of all door components. Regular maintenance extends the life of your door systems, reduces emergency repair costs, and keeps fire and safety codes covered.
Both. Most commercial door problems are a hardware or alignment fix and we repair them on site. When a door is bent, corroded, or cycled past its service life, repairing it just buys a few months, so we quote a replacement instead: slab only, slab and frame, or the full assembly with new hardware. We tell you which one you are looking at after we see the door, never before.
No, and it is worth being clear about the difference. The annual NFPA 80 inspection has to be signed off by a qualified fire door inspector, and we are not that. What we do is the repair work an inspection turns up: closers that no longer latch the door, damaged or painted-over hardware, bad clearances, failed seals, and labels or hardware that were replaced with the wrong part. Send us the deficiency list and we will quote the fixes.
Yes. We test opening force, adjust closing speed and hold-open timing, check threshold height, and set sensor ranges and activation controls to meet ADA standards, then document what we changed. Where the existing operator cannot be brought into spec, we replace it with one that can.
We schedule replacements and major repairs during off-peak hours, evenings, or weekends whenever possible. For work that must happen during business hours, we stage materials in advance, use temporary barriers for safety, and communicate clear timelines so your staff and customers are informed throughout.
