From glass storefronts to industrial overhead doors — we work on all commercial door types found in Mendota Heights businesses.
Heavy-duty steel doors rated for 60-90 minute fire resistance. Commonly used in stairwells and corridors. We repair dents, warping, and hinge issues specific to steel construction.
These outward-swinging doors are equipped with push bars and self-closing mechanisms. We fix misaligned frames, broken panic bars, and damaged thresholds to ensure smooth emergency egress.
Doors with panic or crash bars that must function correctly to meet egress codes. We service all brands of panic hardware, including touch bars and crossbars, replacing worn springs or rods.
Doors leading to fire escape stairs require tight seals and auto-latching. We repair gaskets, adjust closers, and replace weatherstripping to maintain their fire rating and prevent smoke infiltration.
Preparing Mendota Heights commercial doors for harsh seasonal conditions
Minnesota winters bring extreme cold and heavy snow that can cause fire door frames to contract and ice to build up in thresholds. This often leads to doors sticking, not closing fully, or failing the required self-latch test. In Mendota Heights, we see a spike in service calls every January and February for these exact issues.
Thaw cycles in spring can also cause moisture damage to wood and metal components. As ice melts, water seeps into gaps and rusts hinges or swells frames. Proactive maintenance before winter and after spring thaw prevents small problems from becoming expensive repairs.
Tip: Schedule a pre-winter door inspection in Mendota Heights before temperatures drop — closers and seals need adjustment to perform through subzero conditions.
Don't wait for a door failure to disrupt your business — watch for these common warning signs.
If you have to push hard or slam the door to get it to catch, the latching mechanism is failing. This is a safety violation and a common fire code failure. We inspect and adjust the strike plate or replace the latch.
Rust on steel doors, hinges, or closers weakens the structural integrity and can prevent proper closure. In Mendota Heights, road salt and humidity accelerate corrosion. We treat or replace affected hardware.
Fire doors rely on intumescent seals to expand and block smoke. Torn, missing, or worn seals cannot perform during a fire. Our team installs new seal kits to restore the door's fire rating.
A door that drags or requires extra force to open may have a sagging hinge, swollen frame, or obstructed closer. This creates a tripping hazard and slows evacuation. We diagnose and fix the root cause.
Simple Process
3 simple steps from first call to completed work.
We test the door, frame, hinges, and closing mechanisms. Then we document all issues with photos and provide a clear repair or replacement plan.
Using commercial-grade parts, we fix or replace fire-rated components. Our team works efficiently to minimize downtime for your building.
We verify the door closes and latches properly, test the self-latching mechanism, and provide a certificate of compliance for your records.
