KNOW WHEN REPLACING YOUR DOOR IS
BETTER THAN GOING FOR STEEL DOORS
REPAIR
You may have to replace the steel door if the frame is no longer in
shape. In other words, you should look for a new door if the frame of
your old door is no longer square. You usually find old steel doors with
frame that is no level, plumb, or square. It is better to have these
doors replaced instead of getting them repaired. You will not be able
to increase its lifetime through repair; therefore, it is better to save
your time and look for new steel door instead.
You may not get any benefits from steel doors repair if your door has
a compromised core. The problem usually arises when something
constantly slams into the door. When the core is damaged, there is no
point getting your steel door repaired. Any kind of repair is not going
to add many years to the life of your steel door. Understand that a
door with a compromised core has no integrity left and there is no use
of having it repaired.
