Singlo

5/15/2016

MFS recently went to the charmingly named town of Ramsbottom to service/repair two Singlo's that used to control the main heavy glass entrance doors of a large Grade 2 listed building built around 1850.

The building has been owned by the same family for around 70 years and is now the main retail outlet for Velvet Exclusive Ladies Wear - http://www.velvetexclusive.co.uk/

The Singlo's had parts missing and in the past two modern overhead door closers had been fitted, which were also not working.

We can now report that the overhead closers have been removed and the hold open Singlo's are as good as new, we also whilst on site fully repaired one of the locks set in the top rail.
MFS would like to wish Velvet success in their new premises and thank Tony, Deborah and the girls for their hospitality and for choosing to have the Singlo's repaired and restored rather than any other alternatives they may have considered.

Please feel free to leave comments, they are always looked forward to.

Hi im down in wild west wales in town called Lampeter where we have this type singlo door on the butcher shop.The closer works fine but the handle end of the door is dragging slightly on the tiled floor.Is there any form of height adjustment which can be performed to pull the lead end up slightly?Thanks in advance

    As there is so little information out there with regard to door closers, especially vintage and antique model floor springs, I thought I would start this blog.
