Window and door repair on the North Side

This page is for windows and doors in Deutschtown, the War Streets, and nearby. Loose hinges, sashes that fall, and latches that miss are common examples — the point is to keep a sound original opening working when we can.

Window and door repair

Operation, frames, and hardware. Original hinge and sash work is a common example in this housing stock, not a hardware-only shop.

Doors that sag, rub, or miss the latch

Rehanging heavy old doors, repairing chewed-up jambs, and moving a strike that no longer meets.

Windows, including older sash

Sashes that fall or won't open, glass, and screens.

Hardware worth keeping

Hinges, latches, and cabinet or transom hardware when you want the original pieces to stay with the house.

What we won't do by default

We won't swap a solid original door for a hollow slab just because a hinge failed, unless you ask for that.

How a request works

A straightforward path from your message to a clear price — then work only if you say yes.

  1. Describe the door and the symptom

    Sag, scrape, miss the latch, or a loose cabinet run.

  2. We plan to keep original hardware when we can

    If a part is truly gone, we’ll say so.

  3. A visit and a quote — then your OK

    Jamb repair versus a simple rehang will be spelled out. You’ll still have a working entry.

Deutschtown, the War Streets, and nearby

The Mexican War Streets, Deutschtown, and nearby North Side blocks still have original door slabs, transoms, and cabinet work worth repairing.

Fineview, East Allegheny, and Manchester requests can include a ZIP.

Questions

Can you install a new modern lockset?

Yes, if that’s what you want. If you want to keep a mortise lock, say so and we’ll try to service it first.

The door is starting to rot at the bottom.

Mention it. A threshold repair or a bottom-rail repair may still save the slab; sometimes it won’t.

Do you restore antique hardware?

Light service, yes. A full plated restoration may be a specialist. We’ll be honest.

Who does the work?

A licensed contractor is arranged when required. You’ll know who is coming.

Can you fix a transom?

Often, if the hardware is reachable. Include it.

Pocket doors?

Describe the problem. Some off-track pocket doors can be arranged; some need more opening of the wall than a simple visit.

Request a visit

If you want the original hardware kept, say that explicitly — that’s the default we aim for anyway.
