Listed on the the contents page are details of all the work we cover. Basically any problems with your Doors and Windows GBM can sort them out. We do not fit new windows and doors so unlike other so called repair companies we will not be trying to sell you new Double Glazing by condemning what you have as beyond repair. A favorite is to tell you a lock or part is now obsolete this is common in the Double Glazing Industry but does not mean a similar lock, hinge, handle cannot be fitted in its place.
Most of GBM, s work is now in this field. Many companies that say they carry out repairs are likely to condemn your windows and doors telling you parts are obsolete and are only really interested in selling you new Double Glazing. GBM do not install Double Glazing we only repair, so if it can be repaired we will do so, we will not be trying to sell you new. The most common problems are misted (broken down) Double Glazed Units. The best way to deal with these is to replalace them. There are companies recently starting up that can remove the condensation from the the units but they charge nearly as much to do this as we do to replace them.
Commercial doors like the one in photo above commonly found on Shop doors or on entrances to Blocks of flats office blocks etc.when the door closing equipments fails the door starts to slam this can be very annoying especially in Blocks of flats where this casn keep tennants awake all night. GBM specialise in Commercial door repairs and carry Transome closers Drive arms pivots Shoes Adams Rite deadlatches Hook bolts lock cylinders on van.
We can repair sash or vertical sliding windows. When these go wrong It is due to the balance springs that run up the side of the window wearing or breaking. These can be replaced. Even if obsolete different types of spring can be fitted. There are very few companies that can do this type of work so many would condemn the whole window. This is where a handle can be turned or you push a switch and the window opens. It is mainly used in Commercial situations to open high level windows in places like school halls swimming pools etc.
A large amount of the more common Locks are held as stock on van this reduces the need for two visits and saves money. Of course there are hundreds of different locks and It would be impossible to carry them all. Multi point locks like the photo above are found on Double Glazed Doors there are lots of different types and many are obsolete. However different types of lock can be made to replace these an obsolete lock shouldnt mean a need for a new door. We also specialise in finding locks and fittings which you may have been told are obsolete.
