Older farmhouses and village homes often have solid wood doors and frames that have shifted over the years. Some openings are non-standard sizes, so a stock replacement door won’t fit without rebuilding the frame. In many cases the original door is worth keeping: tightening or replacing the hinges, re-shimming the hinge side and re-hanging the door is often enough to stop it sagging or rubbing.
Where the frame is split, loose or soft at the base, we repair or replace the damaged section and check that the door closes square afterward. Our door frame repair page explains the process in more detail.
If your front door is rubbing against the frame or the lock no longer lines up properly, the problem may involve loose hinges, damaged hardware, or the frame itself. We’ll check the door before recommending repairs. Common fixes include longer hinge and strike screws that reach the framing behind the jamb, an adjusted or replaced strike plate, a new handleset and fresh weatherstripping.
We also repair patio doors and side entrances. For sliding doors that drag or won’t lock, see patio door repair and sliding door repair. For drafts, see weatherstripping.
Doors on workshops, detached garages and other outbuildings can have the same hinge, latch and lock problems as house doors. We repair hinges, latches, locks and frames on many of these doors. For large sliding doors or farm-building hardware, contact us with the door type and a photo so we can confirm the work is within our repair services.
Cold weather makes existing fit and lock problems more obvious. Weatherstripping stiffens, wood shrinks in the dry air, and a door that was slightly out of alignment may stop latching or need a hard push before it locks. If a deadbolt only turns when you push or pull on the door, the bolt is rubbing on the strike; adjusting the strike or re-hanging the door usually solves it.
Frozen locks are another common winter call. If the same lock freezes every winter, the cylinder is often worn or collecting water, and replacing it is usually cheaper than dealing with it every cold snap.
