Q: What size chisel should I use for a door strike plate?

• <div><p>For most doors, you can use a 1-inch chisel to create the mortise for the strike plate. In addition, you can use a 3/4-inch chisel for more refined cuts and to clean up the edges of your mortise. The smaller tool is handy when squaring off the edges around the hole for your latch. </p></div>

Q: Why is my door closer not closing all the way?

• <div><p>First, check to make sure the doorstop isn&rsquo;t blocking the door. To close the door, slide the doorstop as close to the hinge side of the rod as possible. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, try moving the door bracket closer to the other side. Some brackets will have extra holes for this purpose, meaning you can slide the bracket over and reattach it without drilling new holes into the door. If you&rsquo;re still having trouble, you may want to consult a local storm door installer.</p></div>

Q: Can you get doors cut to size?

• <div><p>Many doors can be cut to size, but it depends on the door material. Solid wood doors are relatively easy to trim to a specific size, while hollow core and metal doors are trickier and can usually only be shaved down a little before you risk damaging them. If your door needs a lot of adjustment, it's best to order a custom size or have a pro do the resizing to make sure it holds up over time.</p></div>

Q: Will converting my door to a Dutch door affect security?

• <div><p>It can affect security, especially if you don&rsquo;t finish it properly. A Dutch door has more moving parts that can be compromised, so you&rsquo;ll want to use solid hardware and make sure everything lines up and locks cleanly. If the latch is flimsy or the two halves don&rsquo;t sit tight, it&rsquo;s going to be easier to force open.</p></div>

Q: Why is my lock not opening with the key?

• <div><p>First thing first: Make sure you&rsquo;re using the right key. If it&rsquo;s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you&rsquo;re still locked out, call in for help. </p></div>

"I texted Shawn and told him what I needed done and sent a few pics of the fans. He got back to me promptly with a price and time he could send a crew out. Shawn is always great on price. The crew came out right on the scheduled time and got to work. The guys were very professional and I will ask Shawn for the same crew every time I need a home repair done. I have also used Shawn and his crew to repair / replace a dryer vent. And they put together a Rubbermaid Shed for me. A+++ work every time."

"My tenants put a lot of holes in my walls from their tv mounts and a door knob. The drywall repair was completed after the tenants moved out. SWPM provided the vendor and coordinated the service. The work was done efficiently and the final result turned out great. Communication was smooth throughout the entire process and their contractor blended the paint really well with the surrounding area. I am very satisfied with the outcome and would use this service again."
