Symptoms Your Door Closer Needs to be Repaired
If your door closer exhibits any of the following symptoms, it’s time for a repair:
- Leaking Oil: This can indicate a broken seal or mechanical failure. The closer will need to be replaced.
- Unusual Noises: Creaking or grinding sounds suggest worn-out components.
- Door Slamming: If the door closes too quickly or forcefully, it may be due to low oil levels or faulty springs.
- Difficulty Opening or Closing: Increased resistance or failure to close properly can signal an issue with the closer mechanism.
- Adjustment Not Working: If an adjustment doesn’t last long or does not work, a door closer replacement is likely needed.
