Wood Entry Door Repairs

Solid wood entry doors are heavy, and their hinges carry a lot of weight. Over time the screws loosen, the door sags toward the latch side, and it starts to rub the frame or miss the strike. Wood doors also swell in humid weather.

We replace worn hinges or fit longer screws into the framing, shim the hinge side so the gaps are even, and adjust the strike so the latch engages cleanly. If an edge still rubs, we trim it and seal the bare wood. Damaged frame and threshold sections are repaired with new wood.

Patio and Deck Doors

Garden and patio doors that drag or let in drafts usually need new rollers, a cleaned or repaired track, or new weatherstripping. We check all three, along with the handle and lock, before recommending a repair. Cracked or fogged glass can be assessed on the same visit.

Winter Door and Lock Problems

In winter, a lock that won’t turn and a door that won’t latch are often the same problem: the door has shifted slightly and the bolt is catching on the strike. We adjust the strike or the hinges first, since that’s often all it takes.

If the cylinder itself has frozen, a de-icer is the safer fix. A lock that freezes every year or stays stiff once it thaws may be worn and worth servicing or replacing.

Everyday Door Repairs

We also repair interior doors that no longer close square, loose handlesets, worn hinges and sticking latches.
