Door Repair Specialists

Most sticking doors are a 30-minute fix.

The door that's been sticking all summer probably isn't a $3,000 replacement project. It's usually a hinge that's worked loose, a strike plate that's drifted out of alignment, or wood that's swelled with the humidity. Most door problems are diagnosed and fixed in a single visit, often for under $300.

We repair entry, storm, patio, and interior doors — wood, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum. Sticking, broken locks, drafty thresholds, rotted jambs, broken glass — we diagnose the actual cause and fix it without pushing you toward replacement.

When repair doesn't make sense — the slab is warped past adjustment, the frame is rotted through, or security has been compromised — we'll tell you directly and walk through door installation options instead. The recommendation matches your situation, not our invoice.

Common Problems

Door problems we fix.

Six issues that bring most homeowners to a door repair contractor — and what's actually going on when each one shows up.

Sticking or Hard to Open

Usually one of three things: the house has settled, the hinges have worked loose, or the slab has swelled with humidity. Each has a different fix — most are 30 minutes once diagnosed.

Broken Locks & Hardware

Locks that don't latch, deadbolts that won't throw, loose handles, sagging hinges. Usually a strike-plate alignment issue or worn hardware — both fixable without replacing the door.

Drafts & Air Leaks

Worn weatherstripping at the jamb, a door sweep that no longer contacts the threshold, or a slab that's drifted out of square. Most drafty doors are a one-hour fix.

Rotted Frames & Jambs

Wood rot from years of moisture at the threshold or sill. Localized rot can be patched with epoxy and consolidant; widespread damage usually means the jamb needs replacement.

Storm & Impact Damage

Dents in steel doors, cracked fiberglass skins, gouged wood, kicked-in jambs from break-in attempts. Many are repairable — we'll tell you when they're not.

Glass Replacement

Cracked, broken, or foggy glass in entry-door inserts, sidelites, and storm doors. Most glass packages can be replaced without swapping the entire door.

Repair Services

What we actually do.

Specific repairs for specific problems — itemized in your written estimate, not lumped into a vague service charge.

01

Door Adjustment & Re-Hang

Hinges shimmed and re-secured, sagging slabs lifted plumb, edges planed where the door has swelled. Often the only repair a 'stuck' door actually needs.
02

Lock & Hardware Repair

Locksets, deadbolts, handles, and hinges replaced or re-aligned. Strike plates moved to match the slab and secured into framing — not just the trim — so they hold under force.
03

Weatherstripping & Sweeps

Worn weatherstripping replaced with the correct profile for your jamb. Door sweeps adjusted or replaced to actually contact the threshold and stop the draft.
04

Frame & Jamb Repair

Rotted wood patched with epoxy consolidant where it's salvageable; replaced where it isn't. Split jambs reinforced; kicked-in framing repaired and re-secured.
05

Glass Replacement

Broken, cracked, or foggy glass replaced in entry-door inserts, sidelites, and storm doors. Decorative glass packages matched to the original where possible.
06

Emergency Security Repair

Doors that won't lock, won't close, or have been forced open. Same-day temporary security, with proper repair scheduled as fast as parts allow.
Our Process

How a door repair works.

Five steps from first call to a working door. Most repairs wrap up the same visit once parts are confirmed.

01

Inspection

We diagnose the actual cause — settling, swelling, hardware, or frame — and check the slab, jamb, and threshold together.

02

Estimate

A written, no-obligation estimate that itemizes parts and labor — no vague lump-sum pricing.

03

Source Parts

We source the correct hardware, weatherstripping, glass, or framing material for your specific door.

04

Repair

Most repairs finish in a single visit. Custom-order glass or specialty hardware may require a second appointment.

05

Test

We test the swing, lock, latch, and seal — and confirm the door operates the way it should before signing off.

The Reasonable Difference

Why homeowners trust our repairs.

Honest math, fast service, and quality parts — without the upsell pressure to replace what's still salvageable.

Honest Repair-or-Replace Math

If repair is the better long-term value, we recommend the repair. If replacement makes more sense, we say so — and we won't pressure you toward whichever costs more.

Same-Day Service

Most door repairs finish in a single visit, often the same day we inspect. Your home stays secure throughout — we don't leave doors that won't lock.

Quality Hardware

Replacement locksets, hinges, and weatherstripping from Schlage, Kwikset, and the manufacturer brands you'd want — never the cheapest big-box-store SKU.

42 Years in Michigan

Decades of door repairs across every brand and material. We know which problems are 30-minute fixes, which need real diagnosis, and which point to deeper wall or framing issues.

Repair Costs a Fraction of Replacement

Most door repairs run $150–400; a new entry-door install starts around $1,500. The math on repair vs. replace is rarely close — and we'll show you exactly what each path looks like.

Workmanship Warranty

Every repair is backed by our workmanship warranty. If the hinge we shimmed sags or the strike plate we moved drifts because of how we installed it, we come back and fix it.

Door Repair FAQ

Door repair FAQs.

Costs vary by problem. Door adjustment or hinge work typically runs $100–250. Lock or hardware replacement runs $150–350 depending on the lockset. Weatherstripping and door-sweep replacement runs $100–250. Frame or jamb repair runs $300–800+ depending on the rot or damage. We provide free written estimates with exact pricing before any work begins.
Three usual suspects: (1) the house has settled, shifting the rough opening out of square; (2) the slab has swelled with summer humidity and is rubbing the jamb; (3) the hinges have worked loose, causing the door to sag. Each has a different fix, and most are diagnosable in five minutes once we're at the door.
Repair makes sense when the slab is sound and the issue is hardware, weatherstripping, or alignment. Replacement makes sense when the slab is warped past adjustment, the frame is rotted through, the door was compromised in a break-in, or you're chasing recurring problems on a 25+ year-old door. We'll inspect and tell you straight which way the math points. See replacement options →
Yes — and it's almost always one of three causes: the strike plate has drifted out of alignment with the deadbolt, the door has sagged so the deadbolt no longer lines up, or the lockset itself has worn. All three are fixable without replacing the door. Strike-plate alignment is often the cheapest, fastest repair we do.
Most repairs finish in 1–2 hours per door. Frame work, glass replacement, or repairs requiring custom-ordered parts may take longer or require a second visit. We give you a realistic time estimate during the inspection.
Yes. We repair entry doors, storm doors, patio doors (sliding and French), and interior doors in wood, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum from all major manufacturers — including ProVia, Therma-Tru, Pella, Andersen, Larson, and Masonite.
