Front Door Adjustment / Repair Needed

$175

St Kilda East VIC 3183, Australia

19th Jun 2026

I’m looking for an experienced handyperson/carpenter to assess and repair my apartment’s front entry door. It’s on the 3rd-level and the door opens onto an internal shared stairwell. It has become difficult to open and close over time. The latch aligns correctly and engages without issue, and the hinges do not appear to have dropped. The problem seems more likely to be related to building movement and/or swelling of the door causing it to scrape against the frame. I’m looking for someone who can: •Diagnose the cause of the issue •Adjust the door and/or hardware as required •Plane, sand, or otherwise modify the door if necessary to restore smooth operation •Seal and touch up any sanded or planed areas so that no bare timber is left exposed •Advise if any further repairs are recommended I am looking for a proper, lasting repair rather than the cheapest possible fix, and I’m happy to pay accordingly for someone with the right experience. The work will need to be completed by end of day Tuesday 23 June. Please only respond if you have experience with door repairs and adjustments. When responding, please provide details of similar work you have completed. Photos included.
