Door Repair

Project 27138 – Doors Repaired & Adjusted – 2013

Portland City Hall. When the doors of the local power brokers aren’t working…who ya gonna call…

Sorry. Couldn’t resist the temptation.

Yeah, were talking about the main entry doors. Just like people, we get old enough and used enough, and we begin to perhaps sag a bit and not work quite like we used to.

As you can see from this close-up shot, the door on the right is a bit lower than the door on the left. This sagging was translating into the door bottom hitting the vertical-rod strike-plate, which was…

…keeping the door from closing all the way & the electromagnetic locks weren’t locking. Part of it had to do with the joints between the Stiles & the Rails beginning to separate.

So master craftsman, Bruce Hickenlooper goes about the task of injecting adhesive into the pertinent joints, and…

…then applying the necessary pressure via clamps to close those joints back up. And for a little insurance and back…

…up for the adhesive, holes are drilled and steel anchors inserted to span and reinforce these joints.

Jared, our senior technician then fills the holes with wood dowelling…

…and the dowelling is then sanded down flush with the edge of the door.
