Door Restoration vs. Replacement
At Anderson Door & Window Mechanics, we believe in extending the life of your home’s original features. Before committing to an expensive replacement, consider the advantages of professional repair.
Beyond the immediate financial savings, choosing repair avoids the long lead times associated with custom manufacturing. Additionally, many existing doors possess a structural integrity and material quality that modern mass-market options simply cannot match. We help you maintain your home’s character and security with efficient, high-quality modifications tailored to your specific needs.
Residential & Commercial Door Services: Comprehensive Repair & Fine Tuning
Is your door sticking, drafty, or difficult to lock? Most door issues are caused by environmental wear or structural shifting rather than total failure. We specialize in precision tune-ups and targeted repairs to restore your door’s performance and security without the need for a full replacement.
Door Frame Restoration
The frame—comprising the jamb, head, and sill—is the backbone of your door’s operation. Over time, foundation settling, extreme temperatures, and moisture can warp or rot these components.
- Our Solutions: We detect hidden wood rot within the frame or surrounding wall and realign shifting structures.
- Signs You Need Repair: Visible gaps, drafts, or latches that no longer align with the strike plate.
Hinge Alignment & Maintenance
Squeaky or dragging doors are rarely just a lubrication issue; they often signal a deeper alignment problem or the effects of house settling.
- Our Solutions: We diagnose the root cause, whether it requires heavy-duty lubrication, structural shimming, or a full removal and re-installation to ensure smooth, effortless operation.
Lock & Hardware Optimization
Mechanical parts in handles, levers, and complex multi-point or mortise locks eventually wear out or fail due to door misalignment.
- Our Solutions: We specialize in realigning shifted doors to restore lock functionality. If a component is broken, we source and install high-quality, properly fitted replacements for both standard and high-security systems.
Panels & Glass
From weathered wood panels to cracked or fogged glass, we provide aesthetic and functional repairs to maintain your property’s curb appeal and energy efficiency.

If a door is structurally compromised or beyond cost-effective repair, we provide complete replacement services.
- Precision Installation: We install high-performance replacement doors into your existing jamb openings.
