Hinge alignment
Loose screws, worn hinges, sag, and frame movement can all show up as rubbing or poor latch alignment.
DOORS & HARDWARE
Tell us what the door is doing. We handle the rest.
Sticking, rubbing, sagging, not latching, loose handle, noisy hinge, damaged trim, or a new lockset to install? Describe the symptom or add a photo. You should not need to diagnose hinges, strike alignment, frame movement, or hardware compatibility first.
START WITH THE SYMPTOM
A door problem can have more than one cause.
A photo of the full door plus a close view of the hinge, latch, strike, or rubbing point can often show whether this looks like a simple adjustment or a larger frame/hardware issue.
For exterior doors, mention visible water damage, major gaps, forced-entry damage, or a lock that no longer secures the opening. Those conditions can change urgency and scope.
ONE REQUEST
We sort out the hardware and alignment details.
Latch and strike
A door that closes but will not latch may need adjustment at the door, strike, hinges, or frame rather than random hardware replacement.
Handles and locksets
Replacement hardware has dimensions and compatibility details the customer should not have to research before asking for help.
Interior versus exterior
Weather sealing, security, threshold condition, and exposure can make an exterior-door request materially different.
Trim and frame damage
Split jambs, loose casing, rot, or impact damage can turn a simple adjustment into a carpentry repair.
Repair versus replacement
Fixology should determine whether adjustment is enough before steering the customer toward more expensive replacement work.
A sticking door should not require the homeowner to become a carpenter.
The useful starting point is what the customer experiences: where the door rubs, whether the latch catches, whether hardware feels loose, and whether the problem changed suddenly or gradually. Fixology can translate that into the appropriate service path.
We do not publish placeholder prices or promise a one-adjustment cure before seeing the actual opening. Pricing, scope, hardware, provider fit, and scheduling remain authoritative decisions behind the request.
Have a door that does not work the way it should? Send a sentence or photo. We can decide the next useful question, if any.
Contact FixologyCOMMON QUESTIONS
Useful answers without asking you to diagnose the frame.
Why is my door suddenly rubbing?
Loose hinges, humidity, movement, swelling, or frame changes can all contribute. A photo and the rubbing location help narrow the path.
Can a door be adjusted if it will not latch?
Often, yes. The cause may be hinge position, strike alignment, frame movement, or worn hardware.
Can you replace a handle or lockset?
That can be a straightforward installation when the existing door preparation and new hardware are compatible.
What if the jamb is cracked?
Mention it. A damaged jamb may require carpentry repair rather than adjustment alone, especially around security hardware.
Do I need to measure the hardware first?
No. Start with the problem and a photo. If a specific dimension matters, Fixology can ask for only that measurement.
What photos help?
A full-door view plus a close photo of the hinge, latch, strike, gap, or damaged area is usually enough to start.
