Storefront doors · Duluth, GA
Storefront door installation and replacement for Duluth restaurants, bakeries, salons and shops along Pleasant Hill Road, Satellite Boulevard and around the Town Green — single doors and pairs, in aluminum and glass. Free written estimate.
Duluth businesses
Pleasant Hill Road through Duluth is one plaza after another, with Korean restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, salons and cafés that fill up in the evenings and on weekends. Many of those entrances are pairs of aluminum doors, and a pair wears in its own way: the two doors stop meeting evenly, the active leaf drags while the inactive one sags, and the lock at the meeting stiles no longer lines up. Rehanging can buy time; when the stiles themselves have racked, replacing both doors together is the repair that lasts.
When a Duluth pair along Pleasant Hill Road is replaced, the new doors can either meet in the middle or close against a removable center mullion. We show you both on the walkthrough and price the one your entrance needs.
Around the Town Green and along Main Street, older storefronts sit beside newer mixed-use buildings, and the doors are more often single entrances. There a replacement door has to suit the building it goes into, old or new, down to the finish of the pull.
Along Satellite Boulevard the centers are larger, and the restaurants there often seat enough people that the code may ask for panic hardware on the exit doors. Replacing a pair is the time to check: an exit device on each leaf, with vertical rods where the doors meet in the middle or a removable mullion so each leaf carries its own, has to be planned before the doors are ordered, because the stile has to be made to take it.
What we do
A storefront door drags, then chips the floor, then stops latching, then the glass cracks at the corner. Each step is cheaper to fix than the next one.
Narrow, medium and wide stile aluminum doors, single or in pairs, with the frame and sidelites, glazed with tempered glass and fitted with the closer, lock and pull you choose.
Aluminum-framed and all-glass doors at office suites, medical offices and condo or apartment lobbies, repaired and replaced like a storefront.
Cracked or broken door glass secured and replaced with tempered glass cut to size. Insulated units where the entrance is heated and cooled.
A door that drags or sits crooked usually has a worn bottom pivot or a loose top pivot. Replaced, and the door re-hung level.
Surface, concealed overhead and floor closers replaced or rebuilt so the door closes fully and quietly instead of slamming or hanging open.
Hookbolt and deadlatch locks, cylinders, thumbturns, push-pull bars and panic hardware fitted to aluminum stiles the right way.
The brush and pile weatherstrip that stops the draft, the dust and the water at the threshold — the part that is missing on most doors we see.
Why Duluth businesses choose us
The same door coming back every six months is a door that was adjusted instead of repaired. On every storefront door we work on:
The quote
A pivot is a small number and a new pair of doors with sidelites is a large one. What decides the estimate is which part failed and whether the frame is still worth keeping.

Often, yes, by replacing the pivots and closers and rehanging both doors. If the doors have racked out of square or the stiles are cracked, a new pair is the lasting fix, and we tell you which one you have after looking at them.
A removable mullion lets each door lock on its own, which is simpler and more secure day to day; it comes out when you need the full width. Without it the doors meet in the middle, which suits an entrance that takes wide deliveries.
Sometimes, when the frame and the other door are sound and the stile and finish can be matched. Usually both are replaced together, because a new door beside a worn one rarely meets it evenly for long.
Usually, yes. A closer has separate settings for the speed of the swing and the last few inches before the latch, and adjusting them often fixes the slam on the same visit. A closer that leaks oil or no longer holds its setting needs replacing, and we say so on the estimate.
Worth reading first
What decides whether an aluminum storefront door gets repaired or replaced: the pivots, the closer, the glass, the frame and the threshold, in that order.
