Door frame repair — the part that actually fails
When people describe a broken door, what they are usually describing is a broken frame. The slab is a solid piece of steel, fibreglass or wood. The jamb it closes against is often three-quarter-inch pine, nailed rather than screwed to the framing, with a strike plate held by two half-inch screws. That is the weakest link in the entire opening, and it is where almost every failure starts.
Frame repair is also the repair most often done badly. Filling a split with wood filler and repainting looks fine and holds nothing. What actually works is cutting back to sound material, replacing the damaged section, and anchoring the strike and hinges into the structural framing behind the jamb with screws long enough to reach it.
What door frame repair covers
Split & forced jambs
Damaged sections cut out and replaced, strike areas rebuilt and reinforced into structural framing.
Rot repair
Rotted bottoms and sides spliced with new material, sealed and refinished rather than replacing the frame.
Squaring & realignment
Settled frames shimmed and realigned so the door closes and latches through the full seasonal range.
Thresholds & sills
Adjustable thresholds, sills and sweeps fitted so water and cold stop getting under the door.
Reinforcement
Security strike plates, long screws into framing and hinge reinforcement — the upgrade that stops a second break-in.
Commercial hollow metal frames
Racked and levered steel frames straightened or sectioned so the door latches and meets fire code again.
The frame problems we repair
Split jamb after a forced entry
The strike area has torn out. We cut out and replace the damaged section or fit a reinforcement plate, then anchor a security strike into the framing so the same door resists a second attempt.
Rotted bottom on an exterior frame
Decades of water running down an unprotected entrance. We cut out the rotted section, splice in new material, seal it and refit the threshold rather than replacing the whole frame.
The frame has gone out of square
The house has settled. The door catches at one corner and the latch misses the strike. We shim, realign and reset the strike so the door closes properly through the seasons.
The hinge side has pulled loose
Heavy slabs tear hinge screws out of soft jamb material. We anchor into the structural framing with long screws and, where the wood has gone, splice in solid material first.
The threshold has dropped or rotted
Water gets under the door and the seal no longer meets it. We fit an adjustable threshold and a new sweep so the opening seals again.
The frame is beyond a section repair
Sometimes the whole jamb has to go. We supply and fit a replacement frame rather than patching something that will fail again in a year.

Door Frame Repair for businesses
On the commercial side, frame damage is usually mechanical rather than weather-related: hollow metal frames racked by years of heavy use, levered during a break-in, or hit by a trolley or a forklift. A racked steel frame stops the door latching, which on a fire-rated opening is a code failure and not just an inconvenience.
Related work includes exterior door frame repair, Toronto door frame repair, door break-in repair, steel door repair, residential door repair and commercial door repair.
The ten-minute upgrade worth doing on every exterior door
Swap the two short screws in the strike plate for three-inch screws that reach the stud behind the jamb, and do the same on the top hinge. It costs almost nothing, it is invisible once done, and it is the single biggest difference between a door that resists a kick and one that does not.

Door Frame Repair — frequently asked questions
How fast can you get to me?
Most GTA calls are same-day and emergencies get priority dispatch 24/7. Call 647-951-3510 and we will give you a real arrival window.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free and the price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Can a split jamb be repaired or does the frame need replacing?
In most forced entries the damage is local and a section repair with proper reinforcement is stronger than the original. We only replace the full frame when the damage runs the length of it.
Will the repair be visible?
A section repair is filled, sanded and primed ready for paint. Matched to your existing colour it is usually hard to spot.
Can you repair rot without replacing the whole frame?
Yes, in most cases. We cut back to sound wood, splice in new material and seal it, which is far cheaper than a full frame replacement.
Do you carry the parts with you?
Yes. Our trucks stock rollers, closers, pivots, strikes, hinges, weatherstripping, cylinders and locks, which is why most jobs finish on the first visit.
Is the work warrantied?
Every job carries a warranty on labour and on the parts we supply, written on your invoice.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Cash, debit, e-transfer and all major credit cards. Businesses can be invoiced.

Other Door Issues
There may be times when your entrance door fails for various reasons such as jamming or rubbing causing it not to close correctly. This usually occurs when the foundation of the property begins to shift. Often when we mention this to customers, they always have a concerned look on their face.
The fact is that most property foundations move a few millimeters. Changing weather conditions are the most significant factor of this; one might need to be more concerned if there’s a considerable shift causing your house to develop odd cracks.
When it comes to doors, it only takes few millimeters to put them out and, of course, a standard door has about 3/5mm gap, so you can imagine what effect a 5mm shift in the foundation can have.
