Loudoun summers swell interior doors; winters shrink them. We look at hinge screws (the short ones that only catch drywall), strike alignment, and whether the slab was never planed at install. Entry doors get weatherstrip and threshold checks at the same time, because a lock that works with a warped slab still leaks air.
We replace locksets, deadbolts, dummy knobs, and many smart locks that use a standard bore. Rekeying a whole house to one key is locksmith work. Forced-entry repairs after a break-in may need a slab or jamb replacement we can quote on site. Garage overhead doors belong with a door company.
