Panic Bars & Exit Devices | Door Closers | Pivots & Hinges | Commercial Locks
Send us a few details and photos of the door and hardware, and we will get back to you with options.
Panic bars and door closers take a beating on busy commercial doors. When a panic bar sticks, a door will not latch, or a closer slams the door shut, it is a safety problem for staff and customers, and it can be flagged during a fire inspection.
We repair, adjust and replace panic bars (exit devices), overhead and concealed door closers, pivots, hinges and commercial locks on aluminum storefront, steel and wood doors, for stores, restaurants, offices, plazas and multi-unit buildings.
Heavy daily traffic, wind on exterior doors and Ontario’s temperature swings wear out closers, panic bar latches and hinges. Hydraulic closers lose oil, latches stop catching, and doors drop out of alignment until they no longer close and lock on their own.
Rim, mortise and vertical rod panic bars repaired, adjusted or replaced, including stuck push bars and latches that will not catch.
Overhead, surface-mounted and concealed closers adjusted or replaced so doors close at a safe speed and latch every time.
Worn pivots and hinges replaced and sagging doors realigned so they stop dragging, rubbing or leaving gaps.
Storefront locks, cylinders, push/pull handles and door stops repaired or replaced to keep the door secure.
Do not wait for a door to fail completely. These signs mean the hardware needs service.
A closer that leaks oil or is out of adjustment can slam the door on people or leave it standing open.
If the door does not close fully and latch on its own, the building is not secure and the door may fail a fire inspection.
A sticking push bar or latch can slow people down in an emergency and should be repaired right away.
Worn pivots or hinges let the door drop, scrape the floor and let in drafts, snow and water.
A simple four-step process to get your door opening, closing and locking properly.
We check the closer, panic bar, hinges or pivots and the door alignment to find what is causing the problem.
We explain whether an adjustment or repair will fix it, or whether the hardware should be replaced, with a clear quote.
We repair or install the panic bar, closer, pivots or lock, on the same visit whenever the parts are on hand.
We set the closing and latching speed and test the door several times so it opens freely and closes and locks every time.
AEO Services repairs and replaces panic bars, door closers and commercial door hardware across the GTA, Durham, York and Simcoe. We also service automatic door operators and commercial doors. Read our guide to common door closer problems, or call for a free estimate.
Many panic bars can be repaired or adjusted. If the device is damaged, worn out or parts are no longer available, we replace it with a new exit device that fits the door.
Usually the door closer is out of adjustment or leaking hydraulic oil. An adjustment can fix the first; a leaking closer needs to be replaced.
It depends on the hardware, the door type and whether parts need replacing. We give a free estimate, and many adjustments are done in a single visit.
