Our Door
Services

Hinges work loose, seals compress flat, and frames shift a little further with each Minnesota freeze-thaw cycle. Instead of pulling a whole door because of trouble like this, we find the part that actually failed and rebuild it, so the repair holds up rather than hiding the real issue.

Water damage window repair Minnesota

Door Frame Repair

Once moisture reaches a wood frame, swelling, splitting, and soft spots near the sill are quick to follow, especially through Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles. We cut the frame back to sound wood, rebuild it in a water-resistant material, and seal the repair so the next wet, icy season can't unravel it.
Door Hardware Repair

Door Hardware Repair

Most everyday door trouble comes back to the hardware: a hinge that has loosened, a lock that no longer aligns, a roller worn flat. We tune what can be adjusted and replace what can't, fitting corrosion-resistant parts rated to stand up to both busy homes and commercial entries.
New door installation

Door Replacement

Once in a while a door is simply too far gone for any repair to hold, and we'll tell you that outright rather than drag it out. When that's the case, you get a new entry, patio, or storm door, measured on site and sealed against Minnesota weather. There's a bright side to replacing a spent entry door, too: Remodeling's Cost vs. Value Report pegs the resale return on a steel entry door at roughly 188% of the install cost.
Door Restoration

Door Restoration

The older homes in Edina's Country Club District often carry original 1920s and '30s wood doors built better than most replacements sold today. Restoration keeps that character alive: worn wood is repaired and refinished, and the hardware is matched to the era so the door looks correct and works smoothly for years to come.
Weatherstripping & Caulking

Weatherstripping & Caulking

A surprising share of a home's draft slips in around the door rather than through it, and in Minnesota that adds up fast. Strip off the cracked, flattened weatherstripping, run a fresh weatherproof bead of caulk around the perimeter, and the room finally holds its heat the way it should through the coldest months.

That Door Isn't Going to Fix Itself

Send us a photo or schedule a visit, and an Edina technician will tell you exactly what’s wrong and what it takes to set it right.

Door Types <span class="darken"></br>We Repair</span>

Door Types
We Repair

No two door styles fail the same way, so no two get the same repair. These are the types we work on most across Edina’s homes, shops, and offices.

Interior Doors

Interior Doors

Whether they're clean modern panels or solid wood, interior doors in Country Club District homes start to stick, sag, or miss the latch as a house settles over the decades. We plane the binding edges, re-hang them true, and swap tired hinges and handles so they open and close the way they were meant to.
European Tilt & Turn Doors
Found in many of Edina's more refined interiors, tilt and turn doors either swing fully open or tip inward for airflow, which puts real demand on their multipoint hardware. We service that hardware and reset the seals so both the tilt and the turn work exactly as designed, sealing tight against the winter cold.
Patio Sliding Door
Patio sliding doors in newer Edina neighborhoods come in vinyl, aluminum, or wood, and all three lose their smooth glide as the rollers wear and grit collects in the track. Fresh rollers, a cleared-out track, and new seals bring back easy operation and keep Minnesota drafts on the outside where they belong.
french-doors-gealan
French doors on an Edina home or storefront pair decorative glass or solid panels with hardware that only seals when both leaves hang true. We correct sagging panels and worn center seals so the pair meets flush, latches security-tight, and the lock engages without a shove.
Storm Doors

Storm/Screen Doors

Storm and screen doors give Edina homes an extra layer against harsh winters and welcome airflow in summer, until the glass cracks, the mesh tears, or the frame warps. We replace glass and screens, straighten the frame, and reset the hardware so the door seals, latches, and shields against the cold once more.

Common Door Issues We Fix

Some are fast fixes and some go deeper, but our insured Edina crew scopes every job to what the door truly needs, not to what pads the invoice. Here’s what Minneapolis-area homeowners call us about most often:

  • A door that sticks or drags: often the frame has racked or the slab has swelled out of square after a damp season.
  • A door that slams: a worn closer or an off-balance panel, tough on the hardware and on anyone’s fingers.
  • Cold drafts along the edges: perimeter gaps and tired seals letting Minnesota winter push your heat right out.
  • Fogged or cracked glass: a failed seal or an impact that leaves the panel unsafe and poorly insulated against the cold.
  • Rot in the wood: moisture that has crept in and calls for the failed sections cut away and the source stopped.
  • A loose or damaged jamb: wear on the strike or hinge side that undermines the door’s security and lock hold.
  • Worn-out hardware: hinges, handles, locks, and rollers that have simply run out their service life.

Ignored, most of these only worsen and cost more once an Edina winter sets in, so having them checked early pays off.

Door Repair for Any Material

What a door is made of shapes how it fails and how we go about fixing it. Here’s our approach for the three materials we see most across Edina.

wood-doors

Wood Door

Solid wood moves with the weather, drawing in moisture during a muggy July and releasing it through a bone-dry Minnesota January, and over the years that swing warps the slab and opens the joints. Reviving it means rebuilding the failed spots with rot-resistant material, treating the surrounding wood, and refinishing the face.
vinyl-door

Vinyl Door

Vinyl shrugs off moisture, which is its strong suit, but summer heat can still warp it and the hardware still wears out. Where a section has cracked we repair it, seals and weatherstripping are renewed, and the lock side is rebuilt so a vinyl entry keeps sealing and latching against Edina's cold.
aluminum-door

Aluminum Door

Aluminum endures a lot before it gives, yet frames still bow, gaskets still fail, and the surface can pit with corrosion over hard Minnesota winters. A bent frame is straightened where the metal allows, worn gaskets and hardware are replaced, and any oxidation is treated so the door returns to dependable use.

Marcelino and his associate were superbly trained, courteous and thorough in replacing a bay-window frame. They also painted the adjoining doors frames as a courtesy. I had some issues with one of the phone reps but on-site, this was a top-notch job.

I needed 5 windows that were foggy repaired. I called the company for a quote and the estimator was at my home 3 days later. He was on time and very knowledgeable. I had my quote before he left. I had an appointment for repair 3 days later. The installer was on time, professional and did a great job. I am impressed with the services.
Nel Scott, Naperville, IL

Service technicians were polite and professional. They removed damaged parts of the window, cut new pieces to fit, stained the wood, and installed them nicely. The team cleaned up as if they were never there. I would recommend Apex Windows Werks for your window repair. Friends living near me ordered window repairs based on my recommendation as well.

FAQs About Door Repair Services
in Edina, MN

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a door?

In most cases a repair runs a fraction of a full replacement, which is why we look at saving the door you already have first. Replacement only wins on cost when the frame is rotted through or the damage is widespread, and we’ll tell you plainly when a door has reached that stage.

My door frame is cracked at the hinges. What can I do to fix it?

A crack on the hinge side usually means the screws have pulled loose and split the jamb, and it keeps spreading while the door still hangs on it. Longer screws driven into the framing behind the jamb can hold a minor split, but a fuller crack needs that section rebuilt so the hinges have solid wood to bite. We can tell which it is and repair it during a visit.

How do you fix a split in a wood door?

A clean split can often be glued, clamped, reinforced, and refinished until it all but vanishes, no replacement required. Deeper splits, or ones that run through the panel, call for rebuilding the damaged section with matching material. Either way, the repair is scaled to how far the split runs before it weakens the door.

How much does it cost to repair a door?

There’s no flat rate, because a stuck hinge and a rebuilt frame are worlds apart. Once we see the door, in person or through a virtual estimate, you get a firm quote with nothing tacked on afterward.

How long does a door repair take?

A simple fix, say a loose hinge or fresh weatherstripping, is often wrapped up in an hour or two. Rebuilding a frame or hanging a new door takes longer, and you’ll have that timeline in hand before any work begins.

How quickly can you repair a door in Edina?

In most cases we finish the same day we arrive, though a part that has to be ordered can add a little time. If a door has left your home exposed to the Minnesota cold, tell us, and we’ll get out to secure it fast.

Ready to Fix That Door?

Ready to Fix That Door?

A sticking, drafty, or damaged door usually needs a repair, not a whole new one. Book a free estimate and an Edina technician will look yours over and give you an honest recommendation, repair-first, with replacement only when it’s genuinely the better call.
