Commercial door repair
Commercial door repair in Atlanta, so your business keeps running and the door locks properly tonight.
A commercial door that drags on the floor, will not latch, or refuses to stay shut is not just an annoyance. It is a security gap and a potential liability. Customers notice a broken closer that lets a heavy door slam. A misaligned aluminum storefront that no longer latches fully is an open invitation after hours. These are working parts on a working building, and when they fail the repair needs to happen fast.
J&M Locksmith has been servicing commercial doors and hardware for Atlanta businesses since 2013. We are insured, carry a full range of replacement parts on the van, and can provide a certificate of insurance before we touch your property. We quote the repair on the phone, confirm the final price before we start, and aim to have the door operating correctly on the first visit.
Repair, not replacement
There is a separate door installation service for cases where a door or frame is truly beyond repair. Most of the calls we get are not that situation. A sagging door usually needs hinges tightened or replaced. A door that will not latch usually needs the strike plate repositioned or the closer adjusted. A dragging storefront door is often a pivot pin or a worn hinge, not a new door.
We diagnose before we quote. If the frame is damaged beyond what a repair will fix, we will tell you that honestly so you are not paying for a patch that does not hold.
Why commercial doors fail
High-traffic commercial doors take thousands of open-close cycles a year. Hinges wear and loosen. Closer springs fatigue. Pivot pins on aluminum storefront doors develop play. Latch bolts begin to miss the strike plate as the frame settles. Weatherstripping compresses and stops sealing.
Most of these failures are gradual, which is why they often go unaddressed until a door will not close properly the night before an inspection or a tenant calls in a complaint. Catching a worn hinge before the screw holes strip makes the repair cheaper and faster. We are happy to do a quick hardware check while we are on site for any other job.
What we cover
We repair and replace hinges and continuous hinges on wood, steel, and aluminum doors. We service and replace door closers, including surface-mounted, concealed, and floor-spring types. We adjust or replace latch sets and strike plates so the bolt seats correctly. We replace pivot pins and floor pivots on aluminum storefront and glass doors. We replace weatherstripping and thresholds to seal the gap and reduce energy loss. Hardware that is loose, stripped, or cracked gets tightened or swapped on the spot.
Call us for commercial door repair when:
- The door drags on the floor or binds in the frame when opening or closing.
- The latch will not catch and the door will not stay shut.
- The closer slams the door or does not pull it fully closed.
- A hinge is loose, bent, or has stripped screw holes.
- The storefront or glass door pivots feel sloppy or the door sags to one side.
- Weatherstripping is torn or the threshold gap lets light through.
- Hardware is loose, rattling, or damaged and needs replacement.
What we repair
Hinges, closers, latches, and more, fixed on the first visit.
Most commercial door problems trace back to one of four areas. We diagnose the cause on site and carry the common replacement parts so most repairs wrap up the same day.
Door closers
Surface-mounted, concealed-arm, and floor-spring closers that slam, do not close fully, or have a broken spring. We adjust closing speed and latch speed, or replace the unit when adjustment is not enough.
Latches and strike plates
A door that will not latch usually means the bolt is missing the strike plate. We reposition the plate, enlarge or reinforce the pocket, and adjust the latch so it seats firmly every time.
Weatherstripping and thresholds
Torn or compressed weatherstripping and damaged thresholds let in drafts, water, and noise. We replace the seals and set the threshold so the door closes cleanly without dragging.
How it works
Diagnosed, quoted, and repaired on the first visit.
We match the repair to the actual failure, not the most expensive option. You know the price and the plan before we pick up a tool, and we carry the common parts so most jobs close out same day.

FAQ
Questions before you call.
These answers cover what we hear most. A quick call is still the fastest way to confirm the details for your exact situation.
Can you repair a commercial door that will not latch or lock?
Yes, that is one of the most common calls we get. A door that will not latch usually has a misaligned strike plate, a worn latch bolt, or a closer that is not pulling it fully shut. We diagnose on site and fix the actual cause, not just the symptom.
Do you carry parts or do I have to wait for an order?
We stock the common parts on the van: hinges, hinge screws and reinforcement hardware, standard door closers, latch sets, strike plates, and weatherstripping. Most repairs close out on the first visit. Specialty hardware for unusual doors may require a return trip.
Is this repair or replacement? We already have a door installation quote.
Repair and installation are separate services. Most doors that are sagging, dragging, or not latching can be fixed without replacement. We will tell you honestly if the door or frame is in a condition where repair is not the right move.
Can you come after hours if the door will not secure at closing?
Yes. A commercial door that will not lock at the end of the business day is an urgent call and we take it 24/7. The after-hours rate is included in the phone quote so there are no surprises when we arrive.
Do you provide a COI for property managers?
Yes. We are insured and can provide a certificate of insurance before the job starts. Just let us know when you call and we will have it to you before we arrive.
