Exterior & front door repair

Front and back entry doors take the worst of Broward's heat, humidity and wind-driven rain. We reset sagging hinges, repair swollen or scraping slabs, correct gaps at the jamb, replace failed weatherstripping and adjust thresholds so the door seals and latches without force.

  • Hinge replacement and screw anchoring into the stud
  • Slab planing, sanding and edge sealing
  • Threshold and sweep adjustment or replacement
  • Realignment after settling or frame shift

Sliding glass patio door repair

Sliding doors are the most common door call we take in coastal Broward. Grit, salt air and worn rollers make panels drag, jump the track or refuse to lock. We replace rollers, repair or cap damaged tracks, service handles and latches, and re-square the panel.

  • Roller and tandem wheel replacement
  • Track cleaning, repair and track-cap installation
  • Handle, latch and lock replacement
  • Panel removal, re-hang and alignment

Door frames, jambs & trim

A door problem is often a frame problem. Split jambs, blown-out strike areas from forced entry, soft rot near the bottom of an exterior jamb and loose casing all keep a door from operating correctly. We repair the frame first, then hang the door to it.

  • Jamb repair and section replacement
  • Strike-area reinforcement and new strike plates
  • Rot removal and trim replacement
  • Casing and stop re-fitting

Locks, knobs, deadbolts & closers

Hardware that binds, spins or won't throw is usually alignment plus wear. We replace knobs, levers and deadbolts, align strikes so the bolt throws fully, and adjust or replace door closers on heavy doors.

  • Knob, lever and deadbolt replacement
  • Strike alignment so bolts seat fully
  • Latch and spindle repair
  • Door closer adjustment or replacement

Interior, closet & bifold doors

Bedroom, bathroom, closet and pantry doors get daily wear. We patch damage in hollow-core doors, rehang doors that rub the floor or frame, and repair bifold and bypass tracks and pivots so panels run true.

  • Hollow-core hole patching and refinishing
  • Bifold and bypass track, pivot and guide repair
  • Pocket door roller and track service
  • Door rehanging and undercutting for new flooring

Estimates, scheduling and payment

Estimates

Pricing depends on the door type, the cause of the problem and parts required. Share the details with the Assistant and our office will confirm the estimate process for your job.

Scheduling

All appointments run through our central reception and dispatch team. Availability is checked before anything is confirmed — nothing is booked until the office confirms it.

Payment

Payment terms are confirmed by our office when your job is scoped. Ask the Assistant about accepted payment methods for your specific repair.

Door repair questions from Broward homeowners

Can a sagging or sticking door be repaired instead of replaced?

In most cases yes. Sticking, rubbing and sagging usually come from worn hinges, loose screws, a shifted jamb or humidity swelling. We diagnose the cause on site and repair the door and frame when the material is sound. Replacement is only recommended when the slab or jamb is beyond repair.

Do you repair sliding glass patio doors?

Yes. Sliding door work is one of our most common Broward calls: roller replacement, track cleaning or repair, handle and latch replacement, and re-squaring the panel so it glides without lifting.

How does South Florida weather affect doors?

Humidity, salt air and heavy rain accelerate swelling, corrosion of hardware and weatherstripping failure. Coastal Broward homes often need weatherstripping, threshold and hardware attention more frequently than inland homes.

Which Broward cities do you cover?

Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Davie, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Oakland Park and Wilton Manors, plus surrounding South Florida neighborhoods.

How do I get an estimate or book a visit?

Use any Estimate, Book or Assistant button on this site. The Assistant opens right here on the page, collects your contact and job details, checks calendar availability and routes your request through our central reception and dispatch team.

Can you rekey or replace locks and deadbolts?

We repair and replace door hardware including knobs, levers, deadbolts, strike plates and closers as part of door repair work. Tell the Assistant what hardware you have and we will confirm what the visit covers.

Ready to get your door working again?
