"Our experience was great , I would highly recommend this company. They were very skilled and professional install our commercial security door. Our Security latch rusted out and they repaired it as well. This was not apart of our initial repair request but they serviced it any way. Everyone who did the install was good but Joe was a Rockstar"

"We had a total remodel of our kitchen with removal of walls and basically everything gutted down to the studs. Jim work with us through the initial design of the kitchen all the way through the final walk through. Our kitchen is FANTASTIC! Jim was able to provide valuable insight throughout the process and guided us through all of the key decisions on layout and construction plans. When challenges came up or unexpected repairs were needed, Jim explained the approach and got everything set up perfectly. Our kitchen is now the focal point in our house and we are so happy we went with Lockhart Construction!"

"Initially, my experience was not great. The scheduled appointment was forgotten and I never received a call. Obviously not a good thing. However due to a limited number of locksmiths in the area (at least through Service Magic), I decided to give it one more try. Indeed the second time was the charm. I was very pleased with the outcome and reasonable price. I have contracted this vendor for additional work."

Door Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Vaseline or petroleum jelly will work to fix a squeaky hinge. Apply a little bit of the product across the entire hinge, especially in any scratches. Be sure to avoid getting any of it on your cabinetry. Luckily, it won’t run or drip like olive oil or other lubricants.

Yes, your home's existing sliding glass door can be resealed to enhance its efficiency. It's common for seals to loosen or wear out over time, allowing for drafts and moisture to increase energy bills and cause mold issues. Signs that your sliding glass doors need to be resealed include visible gaps and cracks, fluctuating indoor temperatures, noticeable drafts, and increased energy bills without explanation.

Regular cleaning can go a long way in helping your door last longer. Every month, do a quick wipe down of dirt and debris, as well as a check for any cracks or warping. Following any rain, make sure that your gutters and foundation are pooling water away from the front door so as to avoid any moisture and potential rot. If you spot a repair, fix it quickly or call in a pro to help so you don’t put your home security at risk.

You can use wood, metal, or plastic as a door shim, but keep in mind that wood will rot easier than the other two materials. Your local hardware store should have at least one type in stock. Alternatively, you can trim a piece of cardboard to fit underneath your door hinge and work as a temporary, makeshift door shim.

Generally, hinged French patio doors are considered more secure than sliding glass doors. French doors typically feature a more robust, solid frame that can support multi-point locking systems and deadbolts, securing the door at several points and making them harder to break into. In contrast, sliding doors often rely on a single lock and operate on tracks, which can be a security vulnerability. While you can add security bars and other features to enhance a sliding door's security, a well-made French door is often more secure on its own. Ultimately, the overall security of any patio door depends on the quality of its materials, the locking hardware, and proper installation.
