Patio Door
2009
How should I fix my patio door?
My patio door is not sealing properly anymore. It is about 12 years old. The door is square but I believe the house has moved some which is causing gaps. What are my options for getting this fixed?
A) Should I replace the whole assy, door and jam included?
B) Should I replace the jam only?
C) Is there a way to take the molding off the jam and re-adjust the door assembly so that it is square again?
Thanks.
This is not a sliding door.
The answer is “c”.
If you take the molding off there should be some insulation remove it, make sure you save it. Then you will see either nails or screws in the jam. If you have a sawzaw or a hack saw you can cut the nail or screws out and kick the door back square with some shims. But before you do that check it with a level so to see if it even needs to be done.. The weather seal that is around the door just mite be wore out and you can buy it at home depot or your local home store for about 20 to 30 dollars.
