A door that won’t close or lock properly leaves your home unsecure. These are the most common faults we find across Birmingham.
Dropping & misalignment
Hinges wear and fixings loosen, so the door drops and the lock no longer lines up.
Swelling & warping
Moisture and heat swell timber and bow composite panels, so the door binds.
Worn hinges & keeps
Loose hinges and misaligned keeps strain every locking point.
Failing locks & gearboxes
The key turns, but the bolts won’t throw.
Weather damage
Rain, frost and sun rot timber, degrade seals and swell frames.
Impact & break-in damage
Slams, kicks and break-in attempts split timber and bend keeps.
Stop – don’t keep forcing it
Lifting, slamming and shoulder-pressing a door bends bolts, cracks composite panels and strains hinges — turning a simple realignment into a full replacement. We’ll fix the cause, not just the symptom. Call 07570 327586

Door repair questions
Can a dropped or warped door be repaired, or does it need replacing?
Almost always repaired. We adjust or replace worn hinges, realign the door so it sits square in the frame, and adjust the keeps so the locks engage cleanly. Replacement is only needed if the door or frame itself is badly damaged.
Why won’t my composite door lock or close properly?
Usually misalignment: the hinges have dropped or the keeps are out of line, so the multi-point bolts can’t reach their slots. We realign the door, adjust or replace the hinges and keeps, and repair or replace the gearbox if that’s worn too.
My wooden door sticks or swells in damp weather — can you fix it?
Yes. We ease the door back to size, re-seal and treat the timber so it takes on less moisture, repair or renew the hinges, and add weatherstripping — so it stops binding every time it rains.
Can you upgrade the locks on my wooden door?
Yes — BS 3621 5-lever mortice deadlocks, nightlatches and security handles, plus anti-snap cylinders on composite doors. If your insurer requires specific locks, we fit them and provide an invoice as proof.
How much does composite or wooden door repair cost?
It depends on the fault and the parts required. We diagnose on site and give you a fixed price before starting any work, and there’s never a call-out fee.
How quickly can you get to me?
We’re available 24/7 across Birmingham and surrounding areas, and typically arrive within 15–30 minutes for emergencies. Call 07570 327586 for an exact ETA.
