Our Extensive Wooden Door Lock and Repair Services
Wooden doors remain highly popular in the UK, and with good reason. They tend to match the style of homes in the Bradford area, and they tend to be heavyweight and durable doors that make break-ins much less likely to succeed. However, wooden doors, like any other wooden product, can become victims of wear and tear over time.
If you have wooden doors that feel like they fight against you when opening, or they feel as if they no longer fit into the door frames you have, we can help you.
Our team of specialist locksmiths in Bradford can deal with any problems you have with any doors you have. Wooden doors need attention to detail and care during any maintenance or repairs; thanks to our 30+ years of experience, you can trust our solutions and recommendations.
We will make sure that your wooden doors remain the aesthetically pleasing asset that they should be, whilst making sure all functions and operations work as they should. From lock issues to door swelling, we have a solution in mind!
Common Wooden Door Issues We Fix
Thanks to decades of dealing with wooden doors, we know what to expect when we receive a callout for wooden doors. The most regular issues reported are:
Broken or damaged locks
Despite being the most important function in any door, locks tend to be the first part of a wooden door to fail. Consider how many times your locks are used on a yearly basis; their mechanical functions will eventually stiffen up, wear out, or have another issue that requires support.
We will work out if your locks are simply in need of some maintenance or if they have a mechanical fault that requires them to be repaired or replaced with new lock types.
Warped or swelling doors
Wood is a material that can continue to change in size, temporarily swelling and contracting over time. Thanks to the humid summers and the rainy winters, wooden doors in Bradford tend to go through plenty of warping over the year. Continual expansion and reduction in size can leave your doors ill-fitting in their frames, leading to operational issues and headaches. We can fix this for you.
Sticking or misaligned doors
Alignment, too, can become a problem – especially if your wooden doors are recently fitted and/or your Bradford property is on the newer side. Alignment issues can seem like the end of the world, but we can quickly realign your door so that it matches the frame perfectly as if it were new. This ensures all functions, such as the locks, work as they should, and your door opens and closes as smoothly as it should.
Broken hinges and loose fittings
The hinges are another part of your doors that tend to become worn out just due to the regularity of their usage. Hinges and other fittings can wear out, but we can find a suitable replacement so you can get these fittings replaced with modern alternatives that restore your door to full working capacity.
Frame and structural damage
Structural impact remains a common problem with any door type. It could be that your door has been hit by a physical object, attacked by vandals, or even shifted its position so it now does not fit adequetly in the door frame you have. We offer repair services to fix these issues and make sure that your wooden doors look as good as new once again, opening and closing as they did before the damage occurred.
Drafty wooden doors
As you might have already found, wooden doors that have changed in size can become more prone to letting drafts into the room. If your doors are not providing the cover from the elements they should, we can take a look at the fit of your doors as well as the seals. Should we find any issues, we can fix the problem and make sure your doors provide the weather resistance and protection expected.
Damage from burglary repairs
Doors can also be damaged physically through the use of blunt force. Someone might have tried to break in, or your door might have been hit by something along the way. We can provide repairs to your wooden doors or temporary solutions via boarding-up treatments if you intend to replace these wooden doors in the near future. Either way, we can restore your door’s functionality right away in the following ways:
- Restore your wooden door to make your home burglar-resistant again and provide you with peace of mind
- Replacing the existing broken lock and replace them with a robust, snap-free alternative
- Strengthen the weak points and install extra security
- Give you suggestions on how to prevent future burglaries
