the latch, handle, hinge or ordinary running hardware no longer lines up or operates normally. Adjust suitable ordinary hinges, latch alignment or clearances and check that the door closes and opens without forcing it.
Signs: the door sags, rubs, sticks or has uneven gaps around the opening or the door closes poorly despite an otherwise sound visible opening. Causes: loose fixings, minor alignment drift or ordinary timber movement or normal wear in hinges, latches or compatible mechanical hardware.
Show the rub mark on the leaf, frame or floor so the actual interference can be assessed. For sticking door repair, this detail is reviewed before work is accepted so the agreed task stays practical and proportionate. No structural opening changes, fire or smoke-rated doors, locksmith services, concealed-service work or certification.
A damaged or moving frame needs separate assessment rather than aggressive trimming of the door. For sticking door repair, this detail is reviewed before work is accepted so the agreed task stays practical and proportionate. No structural opening changes, fire or smoke-rated doors, locksmith services, concealed-service work or certification.
Use the door normally after the adjustment and report renewed rubbing rather than forcing the latch or trimming the leaf yourself. Limits: Ordinary internal door adjustment only. No structural opening changes, fire or smoke-rated doors, locksmith services, security work or certification.
