How a Commercial Door Maintenance Plan Saves You Thousands in Emergency Repairs

The Hidden Costs of Reactive Maintenance

Waiting until a door malfunctions before addressing maintenance can have significant financial implications. 

Emergency repairs often come with premium charges, especially if services are required after regular business hours. 

Beyond the immediate repair costs, there’s the potential loss of revenue due to operational downtime

A malfunctioning door can halt production, delay shipments, and disrupt the overall workflow, leading to dissatisfied clients and potential loss of business.

 

For example:

A local auto repair shop generating $20,000 in revenue per day has 3 bays. 

Each bay door going down accounts for a 33% revenue loss. 

If emergency commercial door service can’t get out there until the next day, the repair shop could lose over $13,000 in revenue (not accounting for the additional cost of emergency repairs)

  • Safety Feature Testing: Regularly test safety features such as sensors and automatic stops to ensure they function correctly.

  • Prompt Repairs: Address any identified issues swiftly to prevent them from worsening.

Partnering with a reputable service provider is essential for effective maintenance.
