A sagging entry door is hard to ignore — it scrapes the threshold, whistles at the lock side, or simply will not close without a hip check. In Aurora, hinge repair and adjustment fix many of these problems without replacing the slab.

Common questions
Quick answers to what homeowners and property managers ask most about this problem.
Why won't my door close all the way in Aurora?
In Aurora, often the door has sagged on its hinges so the latch side binds on the threshold or frame. Loose screws, worn hinge pins, or settlement after renovation are common causes. Hinge adjustment and strike realignment usually fix it when the jamb is sound.
Can longer hinge screws fix a sagging door?
In Aurora, longer screws into the stud help when the jamb wood is still solid. If screws spin freely or the hinge side is split, rebuilding that section comes first — otherwise the door sags again within weeks.
Is door hinge repair cheaper than a new door?
In Aurora, yes, when the slab and frame are sound. Hinge work, strike adjustment, and weatherstripping tune-up cost far less than a full entry replacement. We inspect on site before recommending either path.
Does a door that won't latch need hinge repair or lock repair?
In Aurora, both can be involved. Sagging hinges change where the latch meets the strike. We check hinge side gap first, then the strike plate. Fixing hinges alone often restores latching without new lock hardware.
