What Is Door Repair and Why It Matters
Door repair covers a lot. Sometimes it's a hardware problem, hinges, latches, deadbolts. Sometimes it's structural: wood warping from Phoenix heat or frames that have settled. A job might take 20 minutes. It might need a whole new frame.
A broken door creates real problems. Security issues. Daily annoyance. A bedroom door that won't close is a privacy problem. An exterior door with a gap at the threshold means your AC is working overtime. A crooked cabinet drawer makes the whole kitchen feel broken, even if nothing else is wrong.
We see the same issues in Chandler, Gilbert, and Mesa constantly. The heat makes wood swell and shrink. Builders use cheap hinges. Arizona sun dries out wood. Monsoons destroy screens. It's not your fault. It's just the climate.
Door & Cabinet Work We Handle
Interior Door Repairs
Interior doors take damage from daily use. Kids slam them. Summer heat and winter dry air cause swelling and shrinking. They rub on carpet. Hinges squeak. Latches fail.
- Won't latch: Usually the strike plate has shifted. Takes 10 minutes to realign.
- Drags on carpet: The door sags. We shim the hinge or replace it if it's bent.
- Squeaky hinges: Three-in-one oil solves it.
- Holes in hollow-core doors: Small holes can be patched with filler. Bigger damage means a new door.
Exterior Door Adjustments
Front doors work hard. They seal out 115-degree heat. They keep pests out. They hold your deadbolt. The work shows.
- Weatherstripping: The foam seal dries and cracks in Arizona. We replace it for $40-$80. It pays for itself in AC savings.
- Threshold gaps: Daylight showing under your door means air leaks. We adjust the door or replace the threshold.
- Deadbolt alignment: Key goes in smooth but won't turn. We adjust the strike plate so the bolt throws straight.
Cabinet Repairs
Cabinet problems are visual and constant. Every time you open a drawer, you're reminded something's wrong.
- Broken hinges: Cheap hinges fail. Drawers pull under load and strip the screw holes. We replace them with real hardware: Blum, Grass, or Hafele.
- Loose handles: Screws back out over time. We tighten them and add threadlocker so it doesn't happen again.
- Drawers that stick or fall off track: The drawer box twists or the slides bend. We straighten, lubricate with silicone spray, or replace the glides.
Soft-Close Upgrades
Those little dampers that catch cabinet doors and close them gently make a huge difference. Your kitchen goes from sounding like a locker room to feeling like a real home. They cost $20-$40 per door and install in 10 minutes. We stock the common sizes.
Screen Door Repair and Replacement
July through September brings haboob season and screen door damage. Wind shreds the mesh. Frames bend. Latches break. Sometimes there's nothing left to save. We repair what we can or replace it. New screens run $80-$180 depending on size and frame type.
Barn Door Installation
Sliding barn doors stay popular in the East Valley. Bathrooms, pantries, closets. They save space and look sharp. We do the whole install: framing, hardware, track, and fine-tuning so they slide smooth and close tight. Budget $150-$250 installed depending on your hardware choice.
Why Cheap Hinges Cost You Money Later
Builders in Chandler and Gilbert use $2-$3 hinges. They work for three years. Then screws strip. Brackets bend. Doors hang crooked.
A real hinge costs more upfront. A $3 swap on a 10-year-old kitchen changes everything. Good hinges are solid. The pivot moves smooth. Screw holes stay tight. We stock common sizes and usually fix it same day.
Budget-grade brackets from big-box stores last about 18 months. We don't use those.
What Door Repair Actually Costs
Most repairs run $65-$120. That covers labor and a standard hinge or latch. Cabinet hinge replacements are about the same per door. Barn door installation is $150-$250 depending on hardware.
We don't estimate blind. You describe the problem, we quote the price, and that's what you pay. No surprises. No upsell. If the job turns out bigger than expected, we call and ask before continuing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a typical door repair take?
Most jobs take 30 minutes to an hour. Hinge replacements, latch adjustments, weatherstripping. If the door frame is damaged or warped, it takes longer. We give you a realistic time estimate upfront.
Do you replace doors, or just repair them?
Both. If a door is warped, cracked, or worn out, we replace it. If it can be saved, we save it. We'll tell you which option makes sense.
Can you fix a door that's sagging or won't close right?
Usually. Sagging is almost always a hinge issue. Either the hinge bent or screws backed out. We shim, tighten, or replace. Twenty minutes typically. If the frame is damaged, we'll let you know.
