Common questions
Quick answers to what homeowners and property managers ask most about this problem.
Can you repair a door frame after a break-in in Aurora?
In Aurora, yes, when the slab and hinges are still sound. We rebuild split jambs, install reinforcement hardware, and align strikes so the door latches securely. Call (647) 932-0552 for same-day help when the door will not lock.
Do I need a new door after forced entry?
Not always. Many Aurora entries are secured with jamb repair and new hardware when the slab is still sound. Aurora Entry Specialists explains repair vs replace after we see the damage — call (647) 932-0552.
How fast can you secure my door?
Security-related calls are prioritized. We give a realistic arrival window based on routes in Aurora and York Region. Mention if the door is currently unsecured.
Should I replace the deadbolt after a break-in?
In Aurora, if the bore is damaged or the bolt no longer throws cleanly into solid wood, yes. We replace hardware after the jamb is rebuilt so the new deadbolt aligns properly. Deadbolt repair alone is not enough when the frame is split.
Can you repair a door frame kicked in without replacing the door?
In Aurora, yes, when the slab and hinges are still sound. We rebuild split jambs, install reinforcement plates, and align strikes so the door latches securely. Call for same-day help when the door will not lock.
