Door Repair & Complete Door Services

A door does not always need to be replaced because it is hard to open, will not close, does not lock properly, or has damaged hardware.

WindowFixGuru™ is an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm.

WindowFixGuru™ provides complete residential and commercial door repair services for many types of interior and exterior doors. We repair door hardware, locks, handles, hinges, closers, rollers, tracks, multipoint locking systems, weatherstripping, glass, screens, frames, jambs, and other door components.

We work on entry doors, interior doors, exterior doors, patio doors, sliding and gliding doors, French doors, storm doors, screen doors, European doors, wood doors, commercial doors, and specialty door systems.

We also repair rotten wood, replace damaged glass, adjust doors that rub or sag, service difficult-to-find hardware, and install new doors when repair is no longer the best option.

Our approach is simple: repair when possible, replace when necessary.

Complete Residential Door Repair

Many door problems can be repaired without replacing the entire door.

A door that rubs against the frame may only need an adjustment. A patio door that is difficult to slide may have worn rollers. A door that will not lock may have an alignment or hardware problem. A draft around an exterior door may come from damaged weatherstripping or an improper fit.

We repair doors that:

Will not open or close properly
Rub against the frame
Sag or sit unevenly
Will not latch
Will not lock
Have loose or damaged hinges
Have broken handles or locks
Have damaged multipoint hardware
Are difficult to slide
Have worn rollers
Have damaged tracks
Have broken closers
Slam or close too quickly
Will not stay closed
Have damaged weatherstripping
Allow drafts or water around the door
Have broken or foggy glass
Have rotten wood
Have damaged frames, jambs, or sills
Have damaged screens
Need general adjustment or maintenance

Sometimes the door itself is still in good condition and only one part has failed.

We start by finding that part.

Door Types We Repair

Different doors use different hinges, locks, rollers, tracks, handles, closers, seals, and operating systems.

WindowFixGuru™ works with a wide range of residential and commercial doors.

Entry Door Repair

Your front entry door is one of the most frequently used doors in the house.

Over time, hinges can wear, the door can sag, locks can become difficult to operate, weatherstripping can fail, and the door may stop fitting the frame correctly.

We repair entry door alignment, hinges, locks, handles, weatherstripping, glass, frames, jambs, thresholds, and other serviceable components.

Exterior Door Repair

Exterior doors are exposed to temperature changes, moisture, sunlight, and constant use.

Common problems include sticking, sagging, drafts, damaged weatherstripping, difficult locks, worn hinges, rotten wood, and frame problems.

We inspect the complete door system before deciding what needs to be repaired.

Interior Door Repair

Interior doors can develop many of the same alignment and hardware problems as exterior doors.

We repair doors that rub, sag, will not latch, will not stay closed, have loose hinges, damaged handles, broken locks, or other operating problems.

Patio Door Repair

Patio doors can be expensive to replace, and many common patio door problems can be repaired.

WindowFixGuru™ services sliding, gliding, hinged, French, and other patio door systems.

We repair:

Patio door rollers
Tracks
Locks
Handles
Latches
Hinges
Multipoint locks
Weatherstripping
Door alignment
Glass
Screens
Screen door rollers
Screen door tracks
Other operating hardware

A patio door that is becoming difficult to move does not necessarily need replacement.

Worn rollers, a damaged track, poor adjustment, or another mechanical problem may be responsible.

Sliding & Gliding Door Repair

A properly working sliding door should move smoothly without requiring excessive force.

If the door feels heavy, drags, jumps off the track, makes noise, or becomes difficult to lock, we can inspect the rollers, track, lock, handle, frame, and alignment.

Sliding door repair may include roller replacement, track service, lock repair, handle replacement, adjustment, weatherstripping, glass replacement, or screen repair.

The goal is to restore smooth operation while keeping the existing door whenever practical.

French Door Repair

French doors need proper alignment for both door panels to close and lock correctly.

Small changes in the hinges, frame, or door position can cause the doors to rub, create gaps, or prevent the locking system from working.

We repair and adjust French doors, including:

Hinges
Handles
Locks
Multipoint locking systems
Flush bolts
Astragals
Weatherstripping
Alignment
Glass
Frames and jambs
Thresholds

We work on both traditional and modern French door systems.

Hinged Patio Door Repair

Not every patio door slides.

Many patio entrances use single or double hinged doors, including French-style patio doors.

We repair hinges, locks, handles, multipoint hardware, weatherstripping, glass, alignment, frames, and other components.

Storm Door Repair

Storm doors take a lot of abuse from weather and everyday use.

A storm door may stop closing properly, slam shut, fail to latch, rub against the frame, or develop problems with the closer, hinges, glass, screen, or handle.

We repair and service:

Storm door closers
Handles
Locks
Latches
Hinges
Glass
Screens
Frames
Weatherstripping
Door alignment
Other storm door hardware

When repair is not practical, storm door replacement may also be an option.

Screen Door Repair

Screen doors should open and close easily while keeping insects outside and allowing fresh air into the home.

We repair sliding screen doors, patio screen doors, and other screen door systems.

Services may include:

Screen mesh replacement
Screen frame repair
Roller replacement
Track service
Handles
Latches
Adjustment
Custom screen doors
Retractable screen systems
Specialty screen materials

Retractable Door Screens

Retractable screens are a useful option for doors where a permanent screen is not desirable.

Depending on the opening and door system, retractable screens can be used with entry doors, French doors, patio doors, and other large openings.

We can help determine whether a retractable screen system is practical for the existing opening.

American & European Door Repair

WindowFixGuru™ works with both American and European door systems.

European doors often use more complicated hardware than a standard residential door.

A single handle may control several locking points around the door. The system may include a gearbox, locking strip, hooks, rollers, shoot bolts, corner components, hinges, and multiple strikers.

When one part fails or the door becomes misaligned, the complete locking system may stop working correctly.

We diagnose the hardware before recommending replacement of the entire door.

European Door & Multipoint Lock Repair

Multipoint locking systems are common on European doors and many higher-end American entry and patio doors.

When the handle is lifted or turned, several locking points engage at the same time.

Problems may include:

Handle will not move
Handle moves but door will not lock
Key will not turn
Lock is difficult to operate
Door must be pushed or lifted to lock
Multipoint mechanism is stuck
Gearbox is damaged
Hooks or locking points do not engage
Door is out of alignment
Hinges need adjustment
Strikers are misaligned

The problem may be the lock mechanism, but it may also be caused by door alignment.

That is why the complete system should be checked before parts are replaced.

Door Hardware Repair & Replacement

Door hardware does a lot of work.

Handles, locks, hinges, rollers, closers, and other moving parts wear over time.

WindowFixGuru™ repairs and replaces many types of door hardware, including:

Door handles
Knobs
Levers
Locks
Deadbolts
Mortise locks
Cylinders
Latches
Multipoint locks
Gearboxes
Locking strips
Hooks
Rollers
Shoot bolts
Flush bolts
Hinges
Pivots
Closers
Patio door locks
Sliding door handles
Storm door hardware
Commercial door hardware
Specialty hardware
Discontinued hardware

If the original part is no longer made, we can look for a compatible replacement when one is available.

Multipoint Door Lock Repair

A broken multipoint lock does not automatically mean you need a new door.

These systems can be complicated, but many problems come from a failed gearbox, lock strip, handle, cylinder, striker, or alignment issue.

We inspect how the complete system operates before deciding which component needs attention.

Proper diagnosis is especially important because installing a new lock mechanism will not solve the problem if the door itself is badly misaligned.

Mortise Lock Repair & Replacement

Mortise locks are used in many residential, traditional, high-end, and commercial doors.

Get a Free Estimate

We work with mortise locks, cylinders, handles, trim, latches, and related hardware.

Older mortise hardware may sometimes require careful matching because the original lock is no longer manufactured.

Door Hinge Repair & Adjustment

A small hinge problem can affect the entire door.

Worn, loose, bent, or improperly adjusted hinges can cause a door to sag, rub, create gaps, or stop locking properly.

We inspect the hinges along with the door position and frame.

Depending on the problem, the solution may involve adjustment, repair, reinforcement, or hinge replacement.

Sagging Door Repair

A sagging door may rub at the top or bottom, become difficult to close, or stop lining up with the lock.

The cause can be worn hinges, loose fasteners, movement in the frame, door weight, or another alignment problem.

Instead of simply modifying the door to make it close, we try to identify why it moved.

Get an Estimate

Door Adjustment & Alignment

Not every door problem requires a new part.

Sometimes the door and hardware are still good but no longer line up correctly.

Door adjustment can help with:

Sticking doors
Rubbing doors
Sagging doors
Uneven gaps
Doors that will not latch
Doors that will not lock
Difficult multipoint locks
Patio doors that do not close correctly
French doors that do not line up
Exterior doors with air gaps

Correct alignment can also reduce unnecessary stress on locks, hinges, handles, and other hardware.

Door Lock Repair

A lock can fail for several reasons.

The lock itself may be worn or broken, but the door may also have moved enough that the latch or locking points no longer line up with the frame.

We inspect the lock, handle, cylinder, striker, hinges, and door alignment to determine what is causing the problem.

We work with standard locks, deadbolts, mortise locks, multipoint locks, patio door locks, storm door locks, and many specialty locking systems.

Door Handle Repair & Replacement

A loose, broken, or difficult-to-operate handle can be a simple problem or a sign of an issue inside the lock mechanism.

We replace and repair many residential and commercial door handles, levers, knobs, patio door handles, and specialty hardware.

When replacing hardware, we try to match the existing configuration and finish when practical.

Door Closer Repair & Replacement

Door closers are common on storm doors, commercial doors, and some residential applications.

A damaged or poorly adjusted closer may cause a door to slam, close too slowly, remain open, or fail to latch.

Depending on the closer, it may be possible to adjust the closing speed and force. Failed units can also be replaced.

Drafty Door Repair & Weatherstripping

A draft around a door does not automatically mean that the door needs replacement.

Air can enter around worn weatherstripping, an improperly adjusted door, the bottom sweep, threshold, or gaps between the door and frame.

We inspect where the air is entering before deciding what should be repaired.

Services may include:

Weatherstripping replacement
Door sweep replacement
Threshold adjustment
Door alignment
Hinge adjustment
Sealing
Hardware adjustment

A properly fitted exterior door should close and seal without requiring excessive force.

Door Glass Replacement

Broken or foggy door glass does not always require replacement of the entire door.

Depending on the door construction, the glass unit may be replaceable.

We work with glass in:

Entry doors
Patio doors
French doors
Sliding doors
Storm doors
Commercial doors
Sidelights
Transoms
Fixed door panels

Glass options may include:

Single-pane glass
Double-pane insulated glass
Triple-pane insulated glass where applicable
Low-E glass
Tempered glass
Laminated glass
Safety glass
Clear glass
Tinted glass
Privacy glass
Obscure glass
Patterned glass
Decorative glass

The type of glass required depends on the door, location, dimensions, and applicable safety requirements.

Foggy Patio & Door Glass

Moisture or fog between the panes of a patio or exterior door usually means that the insulated glass seal has failed.

If the door itself is still in good condition, replacing the failed insulated glass unit may be possible without replacing the complete door.

We measure the existing glass and determine the correct replacement configuration.

Sidelight Glass Replacement

Sidelights are the narrow glass sections beside an entry door.

Broken, foggy, or outdated sidelight glass may sometimes be replaced while keeping the existing door and frame.

We work with clear, insulated, tempered, laminated, privacy, decorative, and other appropriate glass options.

Rotten Wood Door Repair

Wood exterior doors and frames are exposed to moisture and weather.

Rot can develop around the bottom of the door, jamb, threshold, sill, trim, or other areas.

Depending on the extent of the damage, it may be possible to repair the affected area without replacing the complete door system.

We work with damaged:

Door frames
Jambs
Exterior trim
Threshold areas
Wood door components
Patio door wood components

The condition of the surrounding structure is important. We inspect the damage before deciding whether repair or replacement makes sense.

Traditional & Older Door Repair

Older doors can be difficult and expensive to replace, especially when they have custom dimensions, original trim, unusual hardware, or architectural value.

We work with many older door systems and try to preserve existing components when practical.

Repairs may involve hinges, locks, mortise hardware, handles, alignment, wood components, glass, weatherstripping, or discontinued hardware.

Sometimes keeping a well-built older door and repairing the failed components is the better solution.

Commercial Door Repair

WindowFixGuru™ also provides commercial door repair and service.

Commercial doors often use heavier hardware and see much more daily use than residential doors.

We work with commercial door problems involving:

Aluminum doors
Storefront doors
Commercial glass doors
Door closers
Locks
Handles
Pivots and hinges
Weatherstripping
Door alignment
Glass
Thresholds
Commercial hardware

A commercial door that does not close or lock properly can affect security, customer access, and everyday operation.

We can inspect the complete door and determine which components need attention.

Storefront Door Repair

Storefront aluminum and glass doors use specialized pivots, closers, locks, handles, thresholds, and glass.

Heavy daily use can cause these components to wear or move out of adjustment.

We service storefront doors that are difficult to open, fail to close, rub, slam, do not latch, or have damaged hardware or glass.

Door Screen & Patio Screen Service

Patio doors and other exterior doors often depend on a separate screen system.

Get a Free Estimate

We repair screen mesh, frames, rollers, tracks, handles, latches, and other screen door components.

Custom replacement screens and specialty mesh options are also available.

Door Installation & Replacement

Some doors are worth repairing. Others have reached the point where replacement makes more sense.

WindowFixGuru™ also provides interior and exterior door installation.

We work with:

Entry doors
Exterior doors
Interior doors
Patio doors
French doors
Sliding doors
Storm doors
Specialty doors
American door systems
European door systems

Depending on the project, we can provide the door and installation or install a customer-supplied door.

Correct measurements, leveling, fastening, frame preparation, weatherproofing, insulation, flashing where required, sealing, hardware setup, and final adjustment all matter.

A good door will not perform correctly if it is installed poorly.

Door Materials We Work With

We service doors made from many different materials and combinations of materials, including:

Wood
Fiberglass
Steel
Aluminum
Vinyl
Composite materials
Wood-clad systems
Aluminum and glass
Commercial storefront systems

The material and construction of the door affect what can be repaired and which repair method should be used.

Hard-to-Find & Discontinued Door Parts

Older doors can still be in excellent condition even when one piece of hardware fails.

The challenge is often finding the correct part.

We work with older and discontinued locks, multipoint mechanisms, handles, hinges, rollers, patio door hardware, mortise locks, and other components.

We identify parts by manufacturer markings, dimensions, shape, function, and the existing door system.

If the original part is no longer available, we look for a compatible replacement or another practical solution when possible.

Door Brands & Hardware Manufacturers

WindowFixGuru™ works on door systems and hardware from many manufacturers.

Depending on the product and available parts, we service systems associated with brands such as:

Andersen, Renewal by Andersen, Pella, Marvin, JELD-WEN, Therma-Tru, ProVia, Masonite, Simpson, Larson, EMCO, Stanley, Marvin Integrity, Truth/AmesburyTruth, Roto, Hoppe, GU, SIEGENIA, and others.

We also work on doors where the brand is unknown or the original hardware has been discontinued.

WindowFixGuru™ is an independent repair company. Brand names are used to identify products and systems we service and do not imply manufacturer affiliation unless specifically stated.

Repair or Replace a Door?

This is one of the first questions many customers ask.

Get a Free Estimate

The answer depends on what is actually wrong.

If the door is in good condition but has a failed lock, hinge, roller, closer, handle, glass unit, weatherstripping, or other replaceable component, repairing it may make more sense.

The same applies to many alignment problems.

A door that will not lock does not automatically need replacement.

A patio door that is difficult to slide does not automatically need replacement.

A broken multipoint lock does not automatically mean that the entire door is bad.

If the door or frame has major structural damage, severe deterioration, or several problems that make repair impractical, replacement may be the better option.

We inspect the problem first.
