Fix Doors That Stick or Swing Open

Door repair and replacement services for residential properties in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

When a door in your Kalamazoo home drags across the floor, refuses to latch, or lets cold air seep through the frame, daily movement becomes frustrating and energy costs climb. Boley Services LLC repairs alignment issues, replaces damaged doors, and installs new hardware so entries, bedrooms, and closets open and close the way they should.

This service covers interior and exterior doors throughout Kalamazoo and surrounding areas, addressing worn hinges, cracked panels, broken locks, and frames that have shifted over time. Repairs restore function without full replacement when possible, while new doors improve insulation, security, and curb appeal for properties being updated or prepared for tenants.

If your doors no longer operate smoothly or seal properly in Kalamazoo, contact Boley Services LLC to schedule door repair or replacement.

Why Alignment and Hardware Determine Door Performance

Boley Services LLC inspects hinges, strikes, and frame alignment at your Kalamazoo property, then adjusts mounting points, shims gaps, or replaces damaged components so doors move freely and latch without force. Tools include levels, planers, and drill sets to correct issues caused by settling foundations or moisture expansion.

After the work is complete, you will notice doors that close without pushing, locks that engage without jiggling, and frames that no longer allow light or air to pass through gaps. Exterior doors seal tightly against weather stripping, and interior doors stop dragging on carpet or hardwood.

Work often pairs with drywall patching, trim replacement, or hardware upgrades when doors are part of larger remodeling or maintenance projects. This service does not include decorative glass installation or custom millwork, and lead times vary if special-order doors are required for older or non-standard openings.

Asking About Fit and Function Makes Sense

Homeowners in Kalamazoo often ask about repair versus replacement, hardware compatibility, and how long door work takes before moving forward with service.

How do you decide between repair and replacement?
Boley Services LLC repairs doors with surface damage, loose hinges, or minor alignment issues, but recommends replacement when panels are split, frames are rotted, or energy loss is significant.
What causes doors to stick in older homes?
Foundation settling, seasonal humidity, and paint buildup cause doors to bind against frames, and Boley Services LLC planes edges, adjusts hinges, or installs shims to restore clearance.
Why does an exterior door let air through?
Gaps form when frames shift or weather stripping wears out, and Boley Services LLC realigns the door, replaces seals, and adjusts the threshold so drafts stop entering your Kalamazoo home.
When should door hardware be replaced?
You should replace hardware when locks fail to engage, knobs wobble, or finishes corrode, especially on exterior doors where security and weather resistance depend on tight, functional mechanisms.
What happens if a door frame is damaged?
Boley Services LLC removes rotted or cracked sections, installs new framing material, and rehangs the door so it operates correctly and seals properly against the updated structure.

Kalamazoo residents use door repair and replacement to improve rental turnover, secure entries, and reduce heating costs during Michigan winters.
