Door Repairs London | NICEIC, NAPIT & Multi-Accredited Fire Safety and Door Specialists

Liviosiv provides professional door repairs in London for residential and commercial properties, landlords, managing agents, HMOs, apartment blocks, offices, retail premises and shared residential buildings. We repair internal and external doors, communal entrance doors, fire doors, timber doors, aluminium doors, UPVC doors and commercial door systems.

Many door problems develop gradually. Hinges begin to wear, frames shift slightly out of alignment, locks become stiff and self-closing devices stop operating correctly. In busy properties, these issues can quickly become larger security, safety or compliance concerns if left unresolved.

We work across every sector: residential homes and flats, HMOs and shared accommodation, apartment blocks and communal buildings, commercial offices, retail and hospitality premises, schools and healthcare buildings, industrial and warehouse properties, and portfolios managed by estate agents, letting agents and property management companies.

What Counts as a Door Repair?

A door repair fixes an existing door rather than replacing it — correcting problems like a sticking latch, a dropped hinge, a damaged frame, a failed self-closer or a broken seal. Most door problems start small and get worse with use, so catching them early with a repair is usually far cheaper than waiting until full replacement becomes the only option. Not every door can be repaired see our door replacement page for when replacement is the safer route.

Looking for front doors near me, composite doors near me, or internal doors near me? Liviosiv covers every London borough for all of the door types above.

Garage Door Repairs

Garage doors take a daily battering from weather and use, and faults like a door that won’t open smoothly, a broken spring, or a misaligned track are among our most common garage door repair callouts. We repair fitted garage doors of all common types across London. If you’ve been searching for garage door repairs near me, we cover every London borough and can usually give you a clear appointment time the same day you call.

uPVC Door Repairs

uPVC doors are low-maintenance, but the multi-point locking mechanisms, hinges and seals can still fail over time. Our uPVC door repairs service covers sticking or misaligned uPVC entrance and external doors, faulty multi-point locks, worn hinges and failed seals. If you’re looking for uPVC door repairs near me, we cover all of London and the surrounding M25 area.

Signs Your Door Needs Repairing

Doors That Won’t Close or Latch Properly A door that sticks, rubs, or fails to latch is usually a hinge, frame or alignment issue rather than a fault with the door itself and it is one of the most common repair callouts we get, on internal, external, and garage doors alike.

Damaged Frames, Hinges and Locks Cracked frames, worn hinges and stiff or faulty locks all affect how securely a door closes including internal door frames and for fire doors, they can affect compliance as well as convenience.

Fire Doors That Fail to Self-Close A fire door that does not close fully and latch on its own can not do its job in an emergency. This is one of the most common findings in a fire door survey, and it’s usually a straightforward closer adjustment or replacement rather than a full door swap.

Fire Door Repairs, Certification and Remedial Works

Most door repair companies in London treat a fire door the same as any other door: fix the fault, close the job. We don’t. As a NICEIC, NAPIT and IFSM-accredited fire safety specialist, every fire door repair we carry out is assessed against current fire door regulations, and we issue a fire door certificate to support your compliance records the same paperwork trail you’d need for an HMO licence renewal, insurance review or council audit.

Where a fire door has failed an inspection or fire risk assessment, we don’t just patch the fault, we carry out proper fire door remedial works to restore full compliance. This typically covers replacing damaged intumescent strips for fire doors and smoke seals, adjusting or replacing self-closing devices, correcting excessive door gaps, and replacing worn hinges and fire-rated hardware. If the door can not realistically be brought back to compliant performance, we will advise on fire door replacement instead honestly, not as an upsell.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, the Responsible Person has a duty to keep fire doors in efficient working order a duty that documented repair and remedial work satisfy just as much as replacement does, where the door can genuinely be restored to compliant performance.

Front Door, Internal Door and External Door Repairs

Beyond fire doors, we repair the full range of doors found in London homes and businesses:

Front Door Repairs stiff locks, dropped doors, damaged frames, failed hinges and security-affecting gaps, for houses, flats and apartment entrances.

Internal Door Repairs alignment issues, damaged hinges, faulty handles, split timber and latch failures, including in shared and communal buildings where doors see heavier use.

External Door Repairs swollen timber, damaged frames, dropped hinges, broken locks and failed closers, for doors exposed to weather and daily wear.

Communal and Commercial Door Repairs entrance systems, glazed doors, panic hardware and access control doors for offices, retail units, apartment blocks and shared buildings.

If the door in question needs more than repair see our door replacement and door fitters pages for full replacement and installation services.

Repair or Replace? Professional Advice Based on Safety, Condition and Cost

One of the most common concerns property owners have is whether a damaged door can realistically be repaired. In many situations, repairs are entirely practical and cost-effective. However, where structural integrity, fire performance or security has been severely compromised, replacement may sometimes be the safer long-term option.

One Provider for Door Repairs and Electrical Compliance

Liviosiv is NICEIC and NAPIT accredited for electrical work as well as fire safety — so if you’re booking a door repair, we can also handle your EICR electrical compliance, fire extinguisher servicing or wider fire risk assessment needs on the same visit. No other door repair company in London currently offers this combination, which matters most for landlords and managing agents juggling several compliance deadlines across a portfolio.

Yes, where a fire door has failed an inspection or fire risk assessment, we carry out proper remedial works to restore full compliance, rather than a temporary patch.

Do you repair garage doors?

Yes, we carry out garage door repairs across London for fitted garage doors of common types.

Do you repair uPVC doors?

Yes, including uPVC entrance doors, uPVC external doors, multi-point locks and worn seals.
