Door service is essential for maintaining security, functionality, and aesthetic appeal of properties. Timing plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal performance and minimal disruption. Understanding when to schedule door service can help prevent costly repairs and extend the lifespan of doors and related hardware.

Seasonal Considerations

Spring and fall are ideal for door service due to moderate weather conditions, reducing the risk of weather-related issues during repairs.

Pre-Winter Maintenance

Scheduling door service before winter ensures proper insulation and prevents cold drafts, which can lead to higher energy costs.

Post-Weather Damage Checks

After storms or severe weather, it is advisable to inspect and service doors to address any damage promptly.

Regular Maintenance Intervals

Bi-annual inspections, typically in spring and fall, help identify and address minor issues before they escalate.
