How do you adjust a glass office door to keep from dragging?
Question:We have a full view glass entry door on our building that is hitting on bottom and won't close completely. Is there some way to adjust the arm etc..to pull the door back up to close?
Answers:
You have a herculite glass door or a tempered glass and aluminum door.
If its a herculite door and is rubbing do not use the door and get someone who works on doors (maintenance , glass house , door repair company) as these doors can "blow up" if enough force is put upon the edge, and all you'll have is a loud bang and a pile of glass squares on the floor.Don't try to pry on it either as it may give the same effect.
Pivots may need adustment/replacement,door arm may need to be shimmedreplaced, threshold area may be shifting.
I would contact either the building contractor or if the building is old the building maintenance people. Glass doors are extremely heavy and very dangerous to mess with unless you know what you are doing.
A maintenance man or a professional glass fitter.
Check to see if your hinges are loose...Or call a professional and write it off on taxes, or maintenance if your renting..
I`m sure if you can afford an office with glass doors, you can afford proffessional service and repair!
