"I had a doorframe which was damaged by an animal attack which JD Locksmith and Doors fixed with a dutchman-type repair. They also replaced the weatherstripping, which had also been partially destroyed during the attack. The work was excellently and quickly done, and Darwin was communicative and flexible. The team was efficient and professional, and I would go to them again for future work."

"Great. I was very pleased with Jeremy (the sales guy who I think owns the company) as well as Larry (the installer). They are both very knowledgeable and helpful. Jeremy was able to customize my contract to my needs and deliver a reasonable cost estimate. Larry installed the equipment very quickly and was super responsive and helpful after the installation was complete. This is where they really went above and beyond, because they could have just moved to their next job, but the follow-up was terrific."

"He did a real good job of cleaning up. He has a helper and he always works with him. He does not put him on the job and come back and check later. He did a good job and he was supposed to give me an estimate on repairing of the wall. He was honest and hardworking and that is why i went with me. I am concerned about matching colors on my roof and he paid details to that. My brother said however they had not fill up a couple of ports on the roof. He thought they over looked it other than that he did a good job."

"John and Melissa were a pleasure to work with!  The work was completed on a rental property and there ended up being a lot more damage than expected.  They were very sensitive to the fact that the damage was in the kitchen and did everything they could to complete all the work in a timely fashion to limit the amount of inconvenience for my tenants. The work was also completed at a very reasonable and fair price.  They are definitely willing to work with you!  They fixed a portion of my roof at no charge and also came back a few weeks after all the work was complete to do some painting when I was unable to find anyone else because the job was so small.  I would definitely use them again in the future and would highly recommend them.  They made the entire process very easy for me!

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

Very small adjustments can sometimes be made while the door is on its hinges. Be sure to stabilize the door with a doorstop before you begin. Planing the bottom of the door, around the hinges or latch, or planing a large surface should all be done once the door is removed.

If the rot is everywhere, you’ll likely need a full door frame replacement. However, if the issue is localized, you can remove the rotten wood and focus on repairing the impacted area. Then fill the cavity with a wood filler or epoxy. For larger jobs, fill the cavity with a wood hardener. Next, sand it smooth and repaint or stain the entire area. You may have to apply the stain or paint to the entire frame to ensure the repair blends in.

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.

The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.

It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.

Over time, latch components may wear out or get grimy, leading to this problem. First, check for dirt, dust, or debris in the latch mechanism to ensure smooth operation. Use an aerosol duster and lubricant to clean and loosen. You may also need to tighten the screws in the component, adjust the strike plate, or replace the lock. If none of these steps resolve the problem, consult a professional locksmith.
