Between the established parts of West Blocton and the newer subdivisions, we see two different kinds of failure: worn-out frames on one side of town and worn-out hardware on the other.

Humidity stays high from late spring through September, which is exactly when wood doors that fit fine in winter start dragging on the jamb.
Humid months swell interior door slabs, and any door that was already close on clearance starts binding at the top corner, which is far and away the most common interior door complaint in this climate.
Wet weather raises indoor humidity noticeably, and the interior doors that stick after several rainy days are responding to that rather than to anything structural.
We see the pattern often enough across Bibb County that we usually know what we are looking at before we arrive.
Local factors we account for in West Blocton: sustained humidity and heavy rainfall — typical of west Alabama.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Our interior door repair process
- Look at the whole house, not one doorWhen several doors in a {city} home start sticking in the same season, the story is usually about the house rather than the doors.
- Diagnose sag versus swelling versus frame movementThey look identical from a distance and need completely different fixes.
- Adjust before cuttingHinge shims, longer screws and strike adjustment fix most sticking doors. Planing a door is permanent and often unnecessary.
- Repair the hardware properlyLatches, privacy sets, bifold pivots, pocket door hangers and barn door guides all get the correct parts rather than a workaround.
- Set the latch to close quietlyA door should latch with a light push and stay latched without rattling.
- Work through the listIf you have five annoying doors, we would rather fix all five in one visit than come back five times. Jobs out this way get their fixings checked into framing rather than casing, which is what stops the sag coming back.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Interior door repair in West Blocton: questions we get asked
Do you replace interior doors as well as repair them?
Yes. A new slab hung in the existing frame is a common job and much simpler than replacing the whole frame and casing.
Can you hang a barn door properly?
Yes, and the important part is the backing. Barn door track has to be fixed into solid framing, not into drywall with anchors, or the whole thing eventually pulls off the wall.
Can a pocket door be fixed without tearing open the wall?
Very often, yes. Most pocket door repairs come down to the roller hangers, and on many systems the door can be removed and the hangers replaced through the opening without opening the wall.
Why do my doors rattle when the HVAC runs?
Air pressure is moving the door in a latch-to-strike gap that has opened up. Adjusting the strike takes minutes and it is one of the most satisfying small fixes in a house.
Why do my hinges squeak so much?
Dry pins. It takes a minute per door to fix properly, and the right lubricant matters because oil-based products collect dust and end up making the noise come back worse.
We put in new flooring and now the doors will not close. What now?
The doors need trimming to clear the new floor height. It is straightforward, but the amount matters: too little and it still drags, too much and you get a gap under every door in the house.
