Service overview
A practical internal door painting decision starts with the affected item, its condition and the surrounding materials. Protect suitable hardware and adjacent finishes, prepare compatible surfaces and apply the agreed internal-door coating.
Signs: the door sags, rubs, sticks or has uneven gaps around the opening or the latch, handle, hinge or ordinary running hardware no longer lines up or operates normally. Causes: normal wear in hinges, latches or compatible mechanical hardware or local damage to an accessible component rather than an assumed structural defect.
An internal door may need to remain open between coating stages. Tell Fix Nik whether it serves a bathroom, bedroom or another frequently used room. Practical access arrangements matter when the room cannot simply be taken out of use.
Small marks on a sound door can suit preparation and recoating, while peeling layers or damaged material may need a different approach. Photos should show the whole leaf as well as individual chips so the overall condition is understood.
The agreed service covers small internal-door painting jobs, compatible surface preparation and agreed finish. Exclusions: Fire/smoke door certification or modifications, exterior coating systems, hazardous paint stripping, door replacement.
Common situations

Timber, coated composite and previously painted surfaces do not always take the same preparation. Send product information where available. A coating choice should follow compatibility checks rather than assuming any household paint can be applied over the existing finish.
Identify any fire or smoke door and any uncertainty about the assembly. This service does not include certification, modification or specialist restoration. Exterior doors and hazardous coating removal also need separate review rather than being added to an internal-door painting scope.
