Fix sticking front door

$200

Paddington NSW, Australia

7th Mar 2026

Our front door is getting harder and harder to close and I need someone to fix it. It is rubbing above door lock (see photos), and seems to be slightly off kilter. I'm not sure of the best solution, but I guess it could be fixed by sanding the door or frame, or hanging. See attached photos.

Albin was lovely to deal with. Turned up on the same day I accept his offer. Did exactly what he said he would and cleaned carefully after he was finished. He was well prepared, knew what he was doing and had an eye for detail. Would use him again.
