Doors, Locks & Weatherproofing

Sticking doors, dead deadbolts, drafty thresholds — adjusted, replaced, and sealed up tight.

Signs You May Need This

  • Interior door that drags or won't latch
  • Exterior door with a visible gap and rising electric bill
  • Deadbolt that needs to be re-keyed or upgraded to a smart lock
  • Front door weatherstripping that's flattened or torn
  • Sliding patio door rolling rough or off-track
  • Garage entry door that's racked and won't close cleanly

Doors That Just Work

A door that sticks every July is a door whose hinges have been telegraphing the same problem for years. Most fixes don’t require a new door — just patient adjustment, a planed edge, a shimmed hinge, or a re-strike of the latch plate. Preston brings the right tools to do this on-site without a trip to the lumber yard.

What Preston Handles

Interior door adjustments, latch and strike alignment, hinge tightening, and door slab replacement when a door is past saving. Exterior door installs (pre-hung) including new threshold and weatherstripping. Smart-lock installation — Schlage Encode, August, Yale Assure, etc. Re-keying matched residential cylinders so all your exterior doors take the same key. Patio sliding door track cleaning, roller replacement, and adjustment. Storm door installs.

Weatherproofing for Texas Summers

Round Rock summers are no joke and a drafty exterior door bleeds money. Preston does new bulb-style weatherstripping, sweep replacement, threshold adjustment, and around-the-frame foam-and-caulk to seal the gap between the frame and rough opening. The result is usually noticeable on the AC bill within a billing cycle.

Lockouts and Same-Day Re-keys

Lost a key or just bought the house? Preston can re-key matched residential cylinders the same day so every exterior door uses one new key, without waiting for a locksmith.
