Door Installation & Repair in San Diego: Secure, Smooth, and Built to Last
A door does more than separate rooms — it welcomes guests, protects your home, and defines how spaces feel and flow. When doors are properly installed, they operate smoothly, seal tightly, and look like they’ve always belonged. When they’re misaligned or damaged, though, they can become a constant source of frustration — sticking, squeaking, or failing to close at all.
At Huge Handyman, we specialize in door installation and repair throughout San Diego, combining craftsmanship with reliability to ensure every door in your home functions beautifully and lasts for years. From entry doors and sliding patio doors to interior, pocket, or barn doors, we’ve handled them all.
Why Proper Door Installation Matters
A high-quality door only performs as well as its installation. Even a small mistake — an uneven frame, loose hinge, or poorly sealed jamb — can lead to drafts, noise, and premature wear.
Professional door installation ensures:
Smooth Operation: No sticking, dragging, or slamming.
Proper Sealing: Keeps out drafts, noise, dust, and moisture.
Energy Efficiency: Tight fits prevent air leaks and help reduce utility costs.
Longevity: Correctly aligned hinges and hardware prevent sagging or warping over time.
Security: Strong anchoring ensures locks and latches perform properly.
Whether you’re upgrading your home’s style or addressing a functional issue, the way a door is installed makes all the difference.

Door Repair Services
Not every door needs to be replaced. In many cases, a skilled repair can restore performance, save money, and extend the door’s lifespan.
We offer door repair services across San Diego for issues such as:
Sticking or dragging doors
Warped or misaligned frames
Broken or squeaky hinges
Loose handles or faulty latches
Drafty or improperly sealed doors
Damaged jambs, trim, or weatherstripping
Cracked or split wood panels
Our technicians assess each door individually to determine whether repair or replacement makes the most sense. When possible, we’ll always fix rather than replace — saving you time and money.
Our Process
We treat every project, large or small, with precision and care.
Assessment & Measurement – We inspect your existing door or space, take detailed measurements, and ensure everything aligns correctly.
Preparation – We remove the old door (if needed), check the frame for damage or rot, and prep the area for installation.
Installation or Repair – Doors are leveled, adjusted, and securely fastened for smooth operation. For repairs, we replace hardware or sections as needed.
Finishing & Sealing – Trim, caulking, and hardware are installed cleanly to ensure both beauty and performance.
Inspection & Cleanup – We double-check alignment, verify latch performance, and leave your space spotless.
By focusing on the small details, we ensure your doors not only look perfect but function effortlessly.

Common Signs It’s Time to Replace a Door
If you’re not sure whether your door needs repair or replacement, here are a few telltale signs:
Drafts or light coming through the edges
Warping, swelling, or visible frame separation
Cracked glass or damaged panels
Squeaky or loose hinges that won’t tighten
Gaps that prevent proper latching
Rusted or deteriorated metal doors
Doors that no longer fit squarely in the frame
A simple inspection can reveal whether adjustments, repairs, or full replacement are needed — and we’ll help you choose the most cost-effective solution.
