DON’T LOSE YOUR PRIVACY JUST BECAUSE YOU DOOR WON’T CLOSE PROPERLY

Can’t get some alone time because your door won’t shut properly? Now that’s just annoying. And it can cause more than just annoyance too, especially if it’s your front door that won’t close. In any case, you’ll need to identify the cause of why your door won’t shut.

Here are a few reasons why this may happen: 

  • 1.  Some doors are exposed to extreme weather conditions such as heat or rain (like your front door or even your bathroom door). Because of this, they absorb moisture and expand, causing them to stick and not close properly.
  • 2.  If your door is leaning to the side or looks a bit lopsided, it might be because the hinge screws are loose or bent.
  • 3.  It could also just be because of a loose screw or something stuck between the hinges.
  • 4.  Make sure the weather strips are installed properly. 

If it’s just a loose screw or hinge, then it’s an easy fix. But if your door still won’t shut properly, it might because of a bigger problem. In that case, it’s time to call the experts to take a look. Call Sherrill Structural Repair at 980-250-2711.
