Emergency Door Repair (Storefront, Aluminum, Steel & Glass)
A door that won’t close, latch, or lock is a security risk. GOAT Locksmith and Doors provides fast, code-aware emergency door repair across Toronto & the GTA—specializing in storefront aluminum & glass, steel/metal, and residential entry doors. We restore smooth travel, quiet closing, and positive latching with precision adjustments or hardware replacement the same visit whenever possible.
Urgent Problems We Fix Right Away
- Door won’t close / latch: misaligned strike, shifted frame, closer latch speed out of spec
- Slamming / drifting open: failed or leaking door closer (sweep & latch valves reset/replaced)
- Scraping / sagging door: worn pivots or need for a continuous hinge
- Storefront aluminum & glass: Adams-Rite style deadlatch & lock body issues, pull/handle problems
- Panic bar / exit device faults: won’t unlatch or re-latch, dogging stuck (life-safety priority)
- Break-in damage: secure the opening, temporary hardware, plan permanent repair
Our Emergency Process (Reliable & Code-Aware)
1) Stabilize & Secure
Make the entry safe; install temporary hardware if needed to protect people and property.
2) Diagnose Precisely
Inspect hinges, pivots, door closer, lock/strike, frame/threshold—no guesswork or “over-replacing”.
3) Restore Operation
Adjust alignment, set closer sweep/latch timing, and replace failing parts for quiet, smooth closure.
4) Compliance Basics
Check latching and closer speeds for safe egress and accessibility fundamentals.
Commercial Door Types We Service
Aluminum storefront (narrow, medium, wide stile), tempered glass with rails, hollow metal/steel, and office interior aluminum systems. Hardware we commonly repair or replace includes LCN/Norton closers, continuous hinges, bottom/top pivots, strikes, panic devices, and storefront lock bodies.
When Do You Need a Continuous Hinge?
If your door is rubbing at the lock side and lifting slightly when pulled, the hinge/pivot is worn. A continuous hinge spreads the load the full height of the door and is often the best long-term emergency fix for high-traffic entrances.
Pricing & Warranty
Transparent, per-issue pricing with on-site written approval before work. We provide workmanship warranty on all repairs and manufacturer warranty on parts we supply.
