Royal Crown Renos provides professional door installation services in North York for interior and exterior doors, along with repair and adjustment work for doors that are sticking, sagging, damaged, or no longer functioning as they should. A door that does not close properly is both a daily frustration and, in the case of exterior and fire-rated doors, a security and safety concern. Our experienced carpenters install and repair doors across North York homes and rental properties, ensuring every door operates smoothly, seals correctly, and is properly finished from the first day.
Hanging a door correctly requires more skill than most homeowners expect. Our clients choose us because we understand what makes a door work well for years, not just on installation day:
Accurate sizing and fitting: Doors are measured, planed, and fitted to the opening with correct clearances for seasonal wood movement and floor finishes.
Level and plumb installation: Frame and jamb checked for plumb and square before hanging, so the door operates smoothly without adjusting hinges monthly.
Correct hardware installation: Hinges, latches, locks, and closers installed at the correct positions and adjusted for smooth, secure operation.
Exterior door weatherproofing: Weatherstripping, thresholds, and door sweeps fitted correctly on all exterior installations to seal against drafts, rain, and insects.
A sticking, rattling, or drafty door is fixable. Most door problems are resolved in a single visit by someone who knows what to look for.

Door installation and repair work is measured and assessed carefully before any fitting begins, because a door that fits perfectly on day one will continue to function correctly for years:
Assessment and measurement: We inspect the existing frame, floor level, and opening dimensions before selecting or ordering a replacement door.
Frame preparation: Frame checked for plumb and square, shimmed and adjusted where necessary, and any rot or damage repaired before hanging.
Door fitting and hanging: Door sized to the opening with correct clearances, hinges mortised, and door hung and tested for smooth operation.
Hardware and finishing: Lockset, latch, and hardware installed and adjusted, weatherstripping fitted on exterior doors, and casing nailed and caulked to complete the installation.
Why is my door sticking or not closing properly?
The most common causes are seasonal wood swelling from humidity changes, hinge screws that have worked loose, a house that has settled and shifted the frame slightly out of square, or an incorrectly hung door from original installation. We diagnose the cause before adjusting, because planning a door that is sticking due to a loose hinge just creates a new gap when the hinge is eventually tightened.
Can you replace just the door without replacing the frame?
Yes, in many cases. If the existing frame is plumb, square, and in good condition, a new door can be hung in it directly. We assess the frame before recommending whether door-only replacement is appropriate or whether replacing the full pre-hung unit is the more practical and durable solution.
How long does door installation take?
A single interior door installation typically takes two to three hours. Exterior doors with new hardware, weatherstripping, and casing take longer, usually half a day. Multiple door installations in the same property are often scheduled together for efficiency.
