Damage, alterations or new technical requirements often mean that existing steel door frames need to be adapted. A complete replacement is not always necessary. The reuse of existing components is becoming increasingly important in the construction industry. Against this backdrop, Arbonia offers a brand-neutral door frame service for the repair, adaptation and modernisation of existing steel door frames. The specialist team of six experienced professionals manages projects throughout Switzerland and ensures that door systems can be used safely and effectively.
Repairing door frames rather than replacing them
The construction industry faces the challenge of conserving resources and reducing the high volume of waste. Consequently, concepts such as the circular economy and circular construction are becoming increasingly important. More and more building owners and public sector clients are demanding solutions that preserve and continue to utilise existing building components for as long as possible. The Arbonia door frame service is based precisely on this principle. Instead of removing and replacing existing steel door frames, they are repaired, modernised or adapted to new requirements. This extends their service life and ensures that valuable resources remain in use for longer.
Preserving and adapting
existing door frames Whether following damage, as part of a refurbishment or to meet new security requirements: existing steel door frames often need to be adapted to changing circumstances. The Arbonia Door Frame Service carries out this work throughout Switzerland and ensures that existing door systems are preserved. The range of services includes repairs, adjustments to opening directions, resizing, reinforcement or new installation of bolt slot profiles, as well as retrofitting for electric door openers, access control and security systems. This ensures that existing door systems can continue to be used safely and in compliance with standards. A particular advantage lies in the brand-neutral nature of Arbonia’s offering. The service can be utilised regardless of the original manufacturer of the steel door frame.
Fast turnaround from enquiry to completion
The process begins when the customer makes contact. Photographs or measurements of the door frames often allow for an initial assessment of the situation. If necessary, a service engineer will assess the conditions on site. Arbonia then draws up a quotation detailing the materials required and the estimated amount of work involved. Once approved, the work on the door systems is planned and carried out.
Advantages of refurbishment
Refurbishing existing steel door frames often reduces costs, material expenditure and operational downtime. At the same time, the functionality, safety, fire protection and appearance of the door system are maintained. Particularly in the case of existing buildings, refurbishments and ongoing operational processes, adapting existing door frames often represents a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to replacement.
