Door & Window Repair in Nashville, TN

Door & Window Repair Service in Nashville

Doors and windows are used every single day, which means they wear out, break, and need adjustment. A squeaky door hinge might seem minor until you notice it every time you close a door. A broken window latch means you can't fully secure your window. A stuck lock creates security and convenience issues. At FixRight, we handle all door and window repairs so your home is secure, quiet, and works smoothly.

What We Repair & Replace

Door Hinges Squeaky, loose, or misaligned door hinges are one of the most common issues we fix. Whether it's interior or exterior doors, we can tighten, adjust, or replace hinges. We also handle broken hinge pins, rusted hinges, and hinges that have bent or come loose from the door frame.

Door Locks & Handles We replace door locks (deadbolts, keyed knobs, smart locks), fix broken door handles, and repair locking mechanisms that don't turn smoothly. We can also upgrade to higher-security locks or smart home door locks if you want modern convenience.

Door Adjustment Doors that drag, don't close properly, or swing open on their own are often just misaligned. We adjust the hinge screws, shim the frame, or plane the edge to make doors swing smoothly and close securely.

Window Latches & Locks Broken window latches, locks that won't turn, or windows that won't stay open are fixable. We replace latches, repair window locks, and make sure windows operate smoothly.

Window Frame Repair Damaged window frames, rotted wood, or frames that are out of square can be repaired or reinforced. Depending on the damage, we might repair the existing frame or recommend replacement.

Weatherstripping & Sealing Gaps around doors and windows waste energy and let in drafts. We install or replace weatherstripping, door sweeps, and caulking to improve energy efficiency and comfort.

Why Door & Window Maintenance Matters

A broken door lock is a security issue. A window that won't close properly lets in cold air, raising your heating bill. A door that drags damages both the door and the frame over time. Squeaky hinges might seem like a minor annoyance, but they're a sign that the hinge is wearing and could fail. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs keep your home secure, comfortable, and energy-efficient.

Also, well-maintained doors and windows are one of the first things people notice when visiting your home or when potential buyers tour it. They affect curb appeal and the overall impression of your property.

Our Process

Inspection — We examine the door or window, identify the problem, and determine the best solution (adjustment, repair, or replacement).

Solution — We explain what's wrong and what we recommend. If it's a hinge adjustment, we do it. If it needs a new lock, we discuss options and finishes.

Installation — We do the work carefully, testing to ensure everything works smoothly.

Testing — We make sure doors close smoothly, locks turn easily, and windows operate properly.

Real Examples

A Nashville homeowner had a front door that swung open on its own — annoying and a potential security issue. We adjusted the hinges and the door frame, and now it stays where you leave it. Another client had a back door with a squeaky hinge that drove them crazy. We replaced the hinge and added weatherstripping while we were at it. A third client wanted to upgrade to a smart lock but didn't want to drill or modify their door frame. We removed the old deadbolt and installed their new smart lock seamlessly.

Common Questions

Can you fix a stuck door without replacing it? Often yes. We'll assess whether it's a hinge issue, a frame issue, or the door has warped. If warping is minor, we can plane the edge or sand it. If it's warping significantly, replacement might be the best option.

What if I need a new type of lock? We can install any standard residential lock — deadbolts, smart locks, keyed knobs, etc. If you're upgrading, we can often do it without modifying your door.

Can you install a smart lock? Yes. We install Schlage, Level Lock, August, and other popular smart locks. We'll make sure it's properly installed and functioning.

Do you do window replacement? We repair windows and can install weatherstripping and locks. For full window replacement, we recommend specialized window contractors, though we can refer you to trusted partners.

How long does a lock replacement take? Usually 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the lock type and door condition.
