Service overview
the latch, handle, hinge or ordinary running hardware no longer lines up or operates normally. Protect suitable hardware and adjacent finishes, prepare compatible surfaces and apply the agreed internal-door coating.
Signs: the door closes poorly despite an otherwise sound visible opening or the door sags, rubs, sticks or has uneven gaps around the opening. Causes: loose fixings, minor alignment drift or ordinary timber movement or normal wear in hinges, latches or compatible mechanical hardware.
List whether the request covers one face, both faces or accessible edges. A door frame and surrounding architraves are separate surfaces. Defining those boundaries helps keep a small internal-door painting quote clear before preparation begins.
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
Rubbing, loose hinges and latch problems should be identified before painting. Extra paint can make tight clearances worse. Suitable hardware repairs can be requested separately, but a new finish is not a substitute for correcting an underlying door movement issue.
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.
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.

Show both sides of the internal door, its edges, hardware and the current coating in good light. Include a wide view as well as close details, keeping product labels readable. Do not dismantle a difficult or unsafe item just to take photographs; explain the access limitation instead.
