Door Repair A to Z on Automatic Door Repair | Page 8

     Firstly, of course, there has to be a power source to the doors that you are using. Whether this a commercial or domestic door, most doors will give an indication that they are receiving this power by way of an indicator light or LED display. There will usually be a way to reset the running of the doors, and this will make sure that the automatic door repair isn’t simply an overload or loss of power. The runners that the doors slide on are fantastic traps for dirt and grime that will prevent the doors from working properly if there is much build up. Regular cleaning is the best way to stop this, and be especially careful in autumn and winter seasons. If you are cleaning regularly but your automatic doors are not working and are in need of repair, check to see if there are any obstructions in the mechanisms of the door. It could be something simple like a stone, and so is easy to solve. Another issue that can prevent your doors from working properly is if they have become misaligned, or the panels have shifted. With not too much force, these can be pushed back into place and will solve the problems.
