What's Included in a Storefront Maintenance Visit
A comprehensive inspection of every component of your commercial entrance system
Glass Inspection
Check for chips, cracks, and seal failures in storefront glass panels. Small chips can spread into full cracks if left unaddressed.
Frame & Seal Inspection
Inspect aluminum frames for damage, corrosion, and failed weatherstripping. Damaged seals allow water infiltration and energy loss.
Door Closer Adjustment
Adjust door closer speed and latching force. Closers that slam or fail to latch are a security risk and ADA compliance issue.
Panic Hardware Testing
Test push bars and exit devices for proper operation. Panic hardware must operate with a single motion and meet force requirements.
Hinge & Pivot Inspection
Check door hinges and pivot sets for wear, looseness, and proper alignment. Worn pivots cause doors to drag and fail to seal.
Lock & Latch Testing
Test all door locks, deadbolts, and latches for proper operation. Replace worn cylinders and hardware before they fail.
Why Regular Maintenance Saves Money
Prevent Emergency Repairs
A $200 annual inspection can prevent a $1,000+ emergency repair. Catching a chip before it spreads, or a worn closer before it fails, saves significant cost.
Stay Code Compliant
ADA and fire code requirements for door hardware must be maintained. Annual inspections ensure your entrance stays compliant and avoids fines.
Protect Your Investment
Commercial storefront systems represent a significant investment. Regular maintenance extends their life and maintains the professional appearance of your business.
