Common door and lock jobs
Most door and lock problems are simple once you know the cause. A door that sticks in humid weather, a latch that no longer lines up with its strike plate, or a worn deadbolt can usually be fixed in a single visit.
- Replacing worn or broken door knobs, levers and deadbolts
- Installing keyed locksets and smart locks
- Adjusting hinges and strike plates so doors latch cleanly
- Easing doors that stick or drag on the frame or floor
- Installing interior doors and exterior storm doors
Why doors stick or won’t latch
Wood swells and shrinks with the seasons, and houses settle over time. Both can pull a door out of square, so it rubs on the frame or the latch misses the strike plate. Loose hinge screws are another common cause. I check the hinges, the frame and the strike plate first, then make the smallest adjustment that fixes the problem.
You buy the lock or door you like, and I install it. If a job is better suited to a locksmith, such as re-keying an existing lock cylinder, I’ll say so rather than guess.

Do you install smart locks and deadbolts?
Yes — I install deadbolts, keyed locksets, and smart locks, and make sure they’re aligned and working smoothly.
Can you install a new interior or storm door?
Yes — I install interior doors and exterior storm doors, including the hardware and weatherstripping.
