This page is about door alignment and why it is important for you and is inspired by a talk with one of our clients when she told us how important door alignment is and yet not many realise. She had engaged us after engaging a few handyman and we have repaired a few door in her home over 2 trips now and she was surprise on how it is done especially after seeing the handyman struggle with simple issue.

Some common door alignment signs for you to look out for:

1. Door rubbing against something: A very obvious issue where your door all of sudden start to be hard to close. This can be due to a few issue such as hinges giving issue allowing the door to sink down on the non hinged side. Another possible reason is wood expansion or cupping (bending) especially with the hot and humid weather in Singapore.
2. Door not latching properly: When ur door level goes off, it can cause the latching of the lock to go off. Some common signs is when you got to start to pull or push to latch the door or just the digital lock to keep beeping when it could not auto latch in.
3. Bad installation work: Sometime the issue is from the start where the installation was not done properly. A common guide is the gap between the floor and door should be 5mm, side to side of the frame 4mm on each side and another 5mm to the top frame. The latch of the lock should ideally sit on the middle or upper middle of the hole in the frame.
4. Loose wood joint: for the older door or what we call classic door, the doors are pieced together by joint or imagine fitting the wood together like lego. Over time the wood can get loose and the door would start to sag down.

The above are some common wooden door closing issue that are faced by Singapore home owner. They can be your main door or room door.
