Door Repair & Installation

What we do in Lakewood

From a sticking bedroom door to a full exterior door replacement, we handle every door problem Denver homes throw at us. Denver's dry winters and 100+ freeze-thaw cycles per year warp frames, loosen strike plates, and misalign hinges. We plane, shim, re-hang, re-frame, or replace so every door closes cleanly, latches on the first try, and seals against the weather.

What's included

Door Repair & Installation — scope of work

Everything we handle for Lakewood homeowners in a single professional visit.

Sticking & sagging door repair

Doors planed, shimmed, and re-hung so they clear the frame and latch without slamming or force.

Strike plate & latch alignment

Latches, deadbolts, and strike plates realigned so keys turn smoothly and doors lock without lifting.

Hinge repair & replacement

Loose, stripped, or squeaky hinges tightened, re-drilled with longer screws, or fully replaced.

Exterior door installation

New pre-hung exterior doors installed level and plumb with fresh weatherstripping and a proper threshold seal.

Door frame & jamb repair

Kicked-in, rotted, or split door frames rebuilt with new jamb material and reinforced strike plates.

Sliding & patio door repair

Sliding glass door rollers, tracks, and locks replaced so heavy doors glide again without lifting or scraping.

Local tip for Lakewood

Lakewood Homeowner Tip

Many Lakewood ranches and split-levels still have original 1970s textured walls. If you're planning a repaint, decide first whether you're keeping the texture, knocking it down, or skim-coating it smooth. Each path is a different prep — and a different price. Skim-coating gives the most modern finish but adds real time to the project.

FAQ

Questions about Door Repair & Installation in Lakewood

Common questions about scope, pricing, and what to expect.

Yes. Most sticking or non-latching doors come down to loose hinges, a shifted strike plate, or seasonal swelling. We tighten, adjust, shim, or plane the door so it closes cleanly.

If the slab is solid and not warped or split, repair is usually the better value. We will tell you honestly at the estimate if replacement makes more sense.

Yes. We install new knobs, levers, deadbolts, hinges, and door stops, and we can match finishes across the house in the same visit.

We charge a flat $80 per hour, with parts billed at cost. Estimates are free, and several doors can be handled in one visit.

Each path is a different look and a different price. Keeping the texture is cheapest but reads as dated. Knockdown over the existing texture modernizes without full skim. Skim-coating to smooth gives the most current finish but adds real prep time. We'll show you each option in person before you decide.

Yes. We test for asbestos when warranted, scrape, skim-coat, prime, and finish. Almost always paired with a wall repaint, since once the ceiling is smooth the existing wall colors usually look tired by comparison.

Yes. Belmar units typically allow standard interior work with no special building rules, but we still stage carefully in shared corridors and parking and protect floors and elevators when needed. Painting, drywall, mounting, and finish work all translate cleanly into Belmar units.

Often yes. Many 1970s Lakewood kitchens have solid hardwood doors and quality boxes that look dated but are structurally excellent. Stripping, sanding, bonding primer, and a sprayed enamel modernizes them dramatically for a fraction of replacement.
