Door repairs in Glen Waverley & Eastern Melbourne
A door that sticks, drops, scrapes the frame or refuses to latch is usually a hinge, alignment, strike-plate or roller problem rather than a new door. We diagnose the cause, explain the practical options and adjust or repair what is actually worn.

Photos help. Helpful photos: the whole door open, the gap where it rubs, and a close photo of the hinges and the latch. Please take them from a safe standing position.
When more information is needed. Most door problems can be estimated from photos or a short video. We may need more information when the frame or floor has moved and the cause cannot be seen in a photo.
Photos from this kind of job
Photos from our own jobs. Where work needs a licence or council approval, a licensed trade handles that part and we take care of the rest on site.

Questions about this job
My door only sticks in summer. Is that fixable?
Usually yes. Seasonal swelling and a slightly dropped hinge are common together, and adjustment or a small amount of easing normally solves it. We will tell you if the door has moved enough that a longer-term repair is the sensible option.
Can you repair the lock at the same time?
Yes. Locks and handles are a normal part of the same visit. Tell us the brand if you know it, or send a photo, so we can bring likely parts.
