Door Repair & Adjustment in Fayetteville, NC

A door that sticks, drops or won't latch is one of those daily aggravations you learn to shoulder past — until it won't close at all. A lot of it in Fayetteville comes down to humidity: wood doors swell in the sticky summer months and shrink back when the air dries, throwing the fit off. Ground movement under older homes does the rest.

We track down the real cause instead of just shaving wood off the edge. Depending on the door, the fix runs from reseating hinges and moving a strike plate to shimming the jamb true or planing down a slab that's swelled shut, so it clears the same in August as in March. Exterior doors get their weatherstrip and threshold checked too, so you're not paying to air-condition the yard all summer.

What this covers

  • Sticking and dragging door correction
  • Hinge repair, replacement and reset
  • Strike plate and latch alignment
  • Interior and closet door rehang
  • Weatherstrip and threshold replacement
  • Screen and storm door repair
  • Pocket and sliding door adjustment
  • Deadbolt and handle set installation
A note from around here: Fayetteville's humidity swings are tough on wood doors — the same slab that closes fine in a dry March can bind by August. We adjust for that seasonal swing and reseal exterior doors so summer storm rain and the AC bill both stay where they belong.

Neighbors often ask

My door only sticks in summer — worth fixing?

It's worth doing, and doing correctly. We trim just enough to clear when the wood is swollen without leaving a gap once it dries out, so the door works all year instead of only half of it.

Can you make my exterior door seal better against storms?

We can. Fresh weatherstripping, a proper threshold and a slab that actually meets the frame all the way around make a real difference against wind-driven rain and your summer power bill both.
