Door Repair & Adjustment in Lawton, OK

A door that binds, sags or refuses to latch is the kind of small aggravation you get used to nudging past — right up until it won't shut at all. Around Lawton the root cause is often underground: the clay beneath the house rises and falls through the wet-dry cycle and twists the frame just enough to spoil the fit. The wide gap between our hot summers and cold winters works on the wood as well.

Rather than shaving wood off and hoping, we find what's actually wrong. The fix might be resetting the hinges, moving the strike, shimming a jamb back to plumb, or trimming the slab so it clears cleanly in every season. On exterior doors we check the weatherstrip and threshold too, so the wind isn't whistling in and you're not paying to condition the outdoors.

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: Lawton's wind gets under a loose storm door and can rack it or tear it right off its closer. We reset and reinforce storm and screen doors, and reseal exterior doors so the constant draft and blowing dust stay outside.

Neighbors often ask

My door binds in one season and swings free in another — worth fixing?

It is, and there's a proper way to go about it. As the clay shifts and the seasons turn, a frame can move enough to grab. We work out whether the hinges, the jamb or the slab is to blame and fix the true cause, so the door behaves in every season instead of just part of the year.

The wind keeps ripping my storm door open — can you fix that?

We can. A blown-out storm door usually needs the closer reset or replaced, the hinges reinforced and a wind chain added so a gust can't fling it past its stop. It's a quick fix that saves the whole door.
