Door Adjustments & Repairs
Easing sticking doors, fixing dropped hinges, adjusting strikes, and trimming doors after new carpets.
✕ Common Problems I Help With:
- 💬 "The door catches on the frame or rubs on the carpet."
- 💬 "The door won't latch shut unless I push it hard."
- 💬 "The door swings open or shut by itself."
- 💬 "The hinge screws are loose and spinning in the wood."
✓ What I Can Help With:
- Planing or sanding down sticking door edges for a smooth swing
- Re-aligning dropped hinges and packing hinge recesses where needed
- Adjusting strike plates so latches engage effortlessly
- Trimming door bottoms neatly to clear new thicker carpets or flooring
