Door repair and installation in DFW
Door Repair & Installation for DFW Homes
We handle practical residential door repair, adjustment, replacement, standard hardware, trim, thresholds, and weatherstripping.
Interior and exterior doors can develop sticking, dragging, rubbing, alignment, latch, hinge, trim, or sealing issues. We review the visible condition and discuss whether adjustment, localized repair, or replacement is the most practical scope.
Door symptoms do not always identify their cause. Recurring or significant movement may justify additional evaluation, but a sticking door alone should not be treated as a diagnosis of foundation or structural problems.
Common problems
What Can Go Wrong With a Door?
✓Sticking, dragging, or rubbing
✓Sagging or uneven gaps
✓A latch that does not align
✓Loose hinges or worn standard hardware
✓Damaged jamb, trim, or casing
✓Drafts, worn weatherstripping, or threshold gaps
✓A damaged slab that may not be practical to repair
Possible causes
Why a Door May Stop Closing Correctly
1
Hinge movement or loose fasteners
2
Door swelling or normal material movement
3
Jamb movement or previous installation issues
4
Worn latch, strike plate, or handle
5
Threshold interference or changed fit
6
Changes elsewhere in the opening
These are possibilities, not a diagnosis. If movement keeps returning or the opening shows significant damage, additional evaluation may be appropriate.
Repair or replacement
Door Adjustment vs. Replacement
Adjustment may make sense
Hinge or alignment issue, minor rubbing, latch alignment, weatherstripping, or a minor standard-hardware problem.
Replacement may be considered
A significantly damaged slab, widespread deterioration, a different opening goal, or a repair that is no longer practical.
Door types
Interior, Exterior, Prehung, and Slab Doors
Interior doors
Privacy, alignment, hinges, latches, trim, and appearance are common considerations.
Exterior doors
Fit, threshold, weatherstripping, exterior trim, water exposure, air gaps, and door condition require closer review. We do not promise a door will be waterproof or weatherproof.
Prehung doors
A complete unit includes the panel, jamb, and hinges. Opening dimensions and existing frame condition determine whether it is appropriate.
Slab doors
The panel alone may be useful when the existing jamb is suitable, but not every frame can accept every slab replacement.
Standard hardware
Hinges, Latches, Handles, and Strike Plates
Normal adjustment or replacement of standard hinges, latches, strike plates, handles, and related hardware can be discussed. Specialty security systems, regulated access-control work, and locksmith services are outside this scope and may require a suitable specialist.
Sealing
Weatherstripping and Thresholds
Gaps, worn seals, drafts, deteriorated thresholds, door sweeps, and poor fit can affect an exterior door. We review the visible condition and discuss practical replacement or adjustment without promising energy savings or a fully weatherproof result.

Cost factors
What Affects Door Project Cost?
Scope depends on repair versus replacement, interior or exterior location, door size and type, slab versus prehung selection, existing frame condition, hardware, trim, threshold, weatherstripping, access, removal and disposal, and finishing or painting if included.

Door FAQ
Can you fix a door that sticks?
We can inspect hinges, alignment, fasteners, hardware, the jamb, and threshold before discussing practical adjustment or repair.
Why does my door no longer latch?
Hinge movement, loose fasteners, material movement, jamb changes, worn hardware, or threshold interference can all contribute. The visible symptom does not identify one cause by itself.
Can you adjust a sagging door?
Adjustment may be possible when the accessible hinges, fasteners, and frame area remain suitable for repair.
Do I need a new door?
Not always. Repair may make sense for alignment, rubbing, weatherstripping, or minor hardware issues; replacement may be considered when damage or deterioration is widespread.
Do you install exterior doors?
Exterior door installation can be discussed based on the opening, dimensions, threshold, trim, weather exposure, and project requirements.
What is the difference between a slab and prehung door?
A slab is the door panel alone. A prehung unit includes the panel, jamb, and hinges. The best option depends on the opening and existing frame condition.
Can you replace weatherstripping?
Yes, weatherstripping, door sweeps, and accessible threshold-related work can be reviewed based on the fit and condition.
What affects door project cost?
Repair versus replacement, door type and size, slab or prehung selection, frame condition, hardware, trim, threshold, access, removal, disposal, and finishing all affect scope.
