NOVI, Mich. - TelAve -- Is the front door of your business glass?

Are you taking the right steps to protect it from wear and tear?

Your storefront entrance does more than just open and close—it's the face of your business! With constant use and exposure to Michigan's ever-changing weather, commercial glass and aluminum doors require maintenance to stay in top condition.

Below are key maintenance tips to help extend the life of your commercial doors and avoid unnecessary downtime or expense.

Inspect and Adjust Door Closers

Door closers are one of the hardest-working components of any commercial entry system. When properly adjusted, they ensure smooth, controlled closing and help protect both the door and surrounding glass.

What to look for:

• Doors should close fully and securely in about 5–7 seconds
• Slamming or rapid closing can stress glass and hardware
• Oil leakage is a clear sign the closer needs replacement

Maintenance tips:

• Periodically test door speed and latch function
• Adjust settings as needed for seasonal temperature changes
• Replace failing closers promptly to prevent further damage

Investing in a high-quality commercial-grade closer can save money over time by reducing wear and tear.

Tighten and Maintain Hardware

Handles, locks, hinges, and other hardware components naturally loosen over time due to frequent use. Ignoring minor issues can quickly turn into larger, more expensive repairs.

To stay ahead of problems:

• Routinely check for loose handles, screws, and mounting hardware
• Tighten components at the first sign of movement
• Replace worn or damaged parts before they fail completely

Well-maintained hardware not only improves function but also enhances security for your business.
