Door Hinge Removal and Replacement

A door that drags on the floor, has to be lifted to lock, or leaves a gap at the top usually has a hinge problem: worn knuckles, stripped screws or hinges rusted by Florida humidity and salt air. Kwikey Locksmith removes and replaces hinges on residential and commercial doors across Palm Beach County and re-hangs the door so it closes and latches the way it should. Call 561-328-3308.

Signs your hinges need replacing

• The door sags and rubs the frame or floor
• The lock only lines up when you lift or push the door
• Hinge screws keep working loose
• Rust, squeaking or a bent hinge leaf
• Heavy commercial doors wearing through standard hinges

Hinges for every door

We replace standard butt hinges, heavy-duty ball-bearing hinges for busy commercial doors, spring hinges that help a door close on its own, and security hinges with non-removable pins for out-swinging doors where the pins face the outside. Where screws have stripped the frame, we fix the holes so the new hinges hold.

Why it matters for security

A sagging door strains the latch and deadbolt and can leave the bolt only partly in the strike. Fixing the hinges is often what makes a lock work properly again.
