πͺ **Don't Ignore Your Door Closer β A Repair Costing a Couple Hundred Dollars Today Could Turn Into Thousands Tomorrow.** βοΈπ
The photos you're seeing aren't examples of normal wear and tear.
Rust, leaking oil, broken arms, loose mounting screws, improper installations, and closers that were never designed for the size and weight of the door they're trying to control are all warning signs that something isn't right.
These issues often get ignoredβuntil they become much bigger and much more expensive problems.
What can happen when a failing door closer is left unchecked?
π§ Damage to the door itself
π§ Broken hinges, locks, panic bars, and other costly hardware
π§ Doors that slam shut unexpectedly, creating a safety hazard for customers, employees, and little fingers
π§ Security issues when doors fail to latch securely behind you
π§ Excessive wear from people forcing doors open and closed
π§ Higher energy bills as cooled air escapes during these hot Florida summer months
The good news? Many of these issues can be corrected before they turn into major repairs. A couple hundred dollars spent addressing the problem early can help prevent thousands of dollars in damage later.
Take a close look at these photos. If your doors are showing similar signs, don't wait until they fail completely.
