About Lake Mary: North of Orlando in Seminole County, Lake Mary is a suburban city built up along the I-4 corridor and Lake Mary Boulevard. Single-family homes lead the housing mix, alongside apartments and condominiums, and named lakes such as Big Lake Mary sit inside the city.
A door that sticks or drags in the wet months is one of the usual Central Florida complaints: humid air swells wood and the latch side starts to rub. Door repair is mostly small adjustment work on hinges, latches, strike plates, locksets, sweeps and weatherstripping. The typical Lake Mary home is a few decades old, so many doors there have hung through a long run of that cycle, and the hardware wears with them.
The fix is usually plain. Worn weatherstripping and door sweeps are renewed where daylight or drafts show, a latch or deadbolt strike is aligned so the door catches, and a door that drags or sticks is adjusted at the hinges. Worn handles, hinges and locksets are replaced, slider rollers and tracks are repaired, and interior doors can be installed. Sealed, aligned doors can help keep conditioned air inside. None of this makes a door impact-rated or storm-resistant, and glass, frame replacement and underlying causes belong to other work.
Close each exterior door from inside and look along the edges and bottom for daylight, feel for drafts, and check that the latch catches and the deadbolt throws fully. Slide any patio door and note whether it grinds, jumps or will not lock. Reading about sliding glass door repair shows what is fixable. The doors on that list can be handled in a one-time visit or revisited on a monthly or quarterly plan. The number is (407) 638-8956, and requests can also go through the website.

Yes. Adjusting sticking doors, replacing hardware and weatherstripping, repairing sliders and installing interior doors are routine handyman work. Structural exterior door replacement may involve permits, so check with your local building department.
Humidity swells wood doors and frames, hinge screws loosen, and frames shift slightly with the seasons. Many sticking doors only need hinge or strike plate adjustment.
Repair hardware problems such as rollers, latches and weatherstripping. Replace the door if the glass has failed, with fog between the panes, or the frame is bent.
No. Door work covers adjustment, latches, strike plates, locksets, sweeps, weatherstripping, slider rollers and interior door installation. Impact-rated doors, frame or opening changes and structural replacement are separate work. For rules that apply to your door, check with your local building department or HOA.
Yes. Sweeps and weatherstripping can be renewed where daylight or drafts show around an exterior door, and latches or deadbolt strikes can be aligned. Sealed, aligned doors can help keep conditioned air in. Call (407) 638-8956 or request service online, and note which doors show gaps.
Humidity can swell a door, and hinge or latch adjustment often helps. If a door keeps binding because the frame or the house has shifted, the door can be adjusted but the underlying cause needs the right trade. Describe the problem when you request service.
