How We Handle Door Repair and Installation in Delaware, OH
Our Approach to Door Repair & Installation
Most visits start with a quick check: we test the door's movement, check the clearance around the frame, and tighten loose hinge screws. Replacing short hinge screws with 3-inch screws anchored into the wall stud fixes most sagging interior doors. For exterior doors, we focus on the weatherstripping and threshold—winter drafts in Delaware County quickly cut through gaps wider than a credit card.
Frame Repairs & Adjustments
Settling is common in local homes built during the 80s and 90s, causing doors to swing smoothly in July but drag by winter. Instead of pushing an unnecessary replacement, we adjust strike plates, add shims behind the hinges, or plane the door edge. However, if wood rot has taken hold at the bottom of an exterior frame from water runoff, replacement becomes the safer option.
New Door Installation
We install interior, exterior, and patio doors—including hollow and solid-core options, steel, fiberglass, and sliding units. Before ordering anything, we take exact measurements of the rough opening. That tells us right away whether you can get away with replacing just the door slab or if the whole jamb frame needs to come out. If you're picking a new front door, fiberglass is usually your best bet around here—it handles local freeze-thaw swings way better than wood and won't require constant re-staining. And if your sliding door is acting up, let us take a look first; a misaligned track can often be fixed without replacing the entire setup.
