Common Wooden Door Issues We Fix
Wooden doors, while durable and timeless, can develop a range of issues over time. Our skilled locksmiths are trained to handle a wide variety of door problems, including:
Broken or damaged locks
If your door lock is broken, jammed, or difficult to operate, we can repair or replace it with a high-quality, secure alternative. A faulty lock can leave your property vulnerable to security threats, which is why we only use the very best locking mechanisms to both enhance the security of your property and your safety. Whether you need a lock repair or a full lock replacement, our professional locksmiths have the expertise to ensure your wooden door remains secure.
Door swelling and warping
Due to temperature and moisture changes, its not uncommon to find your wooden door becomes misaligned or you have difficulty in closing it securely. This can lead to drafts, security concerns and a feeling of general frustration. Our team can professionally plane and realign your door, ensuring it fits properly within the frame and functions smoothly. Furthermore, we can apply a protective treatment to help prevent future any warping.
Sticking or misaligned doors
If you find yourself unable to get out of room because the door simply wouldn’t open no matter how hard you push? Sticking doors can be a huge source of frustration and are often a direct result of fluctuations in weather conditions which results in your door sagging and moving out of alignment. Our experienced locksmiths can adjust, rehang, or reinforce your door to resolve this problem, restoring proper functionality and ease of use.
Broken hinges and loose fittings
If your wooden door creaks, wobbles, or feels unsteady, it is more than likely due to worn-out hinges or loosened screws. Loose hinges and screws can make a door unstable and insecure. We can reinforce or replace the hinges and screws to ensure that your door remains strong, secure and functions properly.
Frame and structural damage
Cracked, split or weakened wooden door frames will only go to compromising your security. A weakened door frame can make it easier for burglars to force entry, posing a significant risk to your property. At Lock & Key Barnsley, we provide professional reinforcement and repairs to keep your door and home safe. Whether your frame has suffered from wear and tear, accidental damage, or impact from forceful entry, we can restore its original integrity providing you with security and peace of mind.

When your wooden door gets damaged, its sealant properties diminishes and you might find yourself feeling the cold air seeping through into your room. Doors are your first line of defence not just to burglars and outsiders but also to the ever changing weather! Our experience locksmiths can repair the seals around your door providing you with a comfortable, draft fee home.

Lock Out Security Worries with Your Trusted Local Locksmiths
Common Causes of Wooden Door Damage
Wooden doors are durable but it doesn’t mean they can’t be damaged! If you’ve experienced some of the signs listed above, the most probable causes are the following three:
Environment
Changes in the temperature such as humidity can greatly affect wood as it’s porous nature easily collects moisture making it prone to expand or shrink in size.
Wear and tear
As time goes by, the natural aging of a wooden door along with general wear and tear such as scratches, dents, and loose parts, reduces the performance of the door.
Poor maintenance
Regular use without proper maintenance can deteriorate the door especially if it’s not sealed or cleaned regularly.
Wooden Door Maintenance
If you find that your treasured wooden door begins to show signs of damage, here’s what you can do to get it back into good shape!
Clean and seal
Start doing proper maintenance on your wooden door such as applying proper sealants so that it won’t let in a draft and won’t easily expand or shrink. Cleaning it regularly can also protect your door from unwanted infestations.
Replace hardware
Due to wear and tear and environmental stress, your wooden door may need to have new replacement components such as hinges, friction stays and handles. Replacing these parts before they’re rusted can lengthen its lifespan.
