Should you repair or replace your front door?

That's why, at Push to Open Door Repair, Our mission is to help our customers find the best possible solution for their needs. We do this by offering expert advice and guidance based on our years of experience in the industry. In this article, we're going to discuss front door repair vs front door replacement!


Did you know that front doors are one of the most important aspects of home or business security? Front doors can also play a role in curb appeal. A front door issue, such as a dent, hinge damage, or a latch problem, is more often than not a safety hazard. If you're experiencing any of these issues, you might be wondering if it's better to repair your front door or replace it entirely. Push to Open Doors certified door technicians will provide you with the information you'll need to consider so you can make the best decision for your home or business.


There are a few things you'll need to consider before making your decision:


The condition of your door

If your door is severely damaged, it might be time to replace it. However, if the damage is cosmetic or minor, repair might be the best option. If you’re not sure or can't decide - Contact us at (604) 650-3520 and We’ll help you determine whether your door can be repaired or if you need a replacement.

The cost/budget

Replacing your front door can be expensive, especially if you have a custom door. Repairs are often more affordable and can save you money in the long run.

Some doors are more economical to replace than others. If you have a standard door, it might be more cost effective to replace it than to repair it.


The type of door

The type of door you have will also play a role in your decision.

For example, if you have a steel door,

fire rated door or glass door it might be

more expensive to repair than a wood door.


At Push to Open Door Repair we always recommend that you consult


with one of our experts before making your decision. We'll be able to take a look at your door and help you determine whether repair or replacement is the best option for you.




Your security needs

If you're concerned about the security of your home or business, you might want to consider a new door with enhanced security features. We offer a


wide range of security features that can be added to your new or existing door. We can also repair or replace your existing locks and hardware to ensure they meet the latest security standards.


Energy efficiency

Older doors can often be drafty and let in cold air in the winter or hot air in the summer. If you're concerned about energy efficiency, we offer a variety of doors (Including automatic doors) that are designed to reduce heat loss and keep your home or business comfortable all year round.

Your timeline

Time is a big factor to consider when deciding whether to repair or replace your door. Replacing a door is a big project and can often take several weeks from start to finish. If you need a new door quickly, we might be able to special order one for you or offer a temporary solution until your new door arrives.

For example, if your storefront door is broken we can board it up to secure your business until the replacement door arrives. This way you won't have to close your business down while you wait for the door to be replaced.
