The Whole System, Restored
After a Break-In
Break-In Door Damage in Raleigh — Whole-Door Recovery, One Visit
A forced door fails as a system: the jamb splinters at the strike, hinges rack, the lock bends, sometimes glass goes too. Piecemeal fixes leave weak links. Our recovery covers the system — splintered frame wood cut out and rebuilt stronger than builder pine, hardware replaced, glass refabricated — with priority scheduling because an insecure door can't wait.
-
Splintered jambs and frames — rebuilt from $475
- $175
Locks and strike hardware — replaced
-
Broken door glass — tempered units from $198
-
Priority scheduling — secure by nightfall on morning calls
Hinges & Frames
The Slow Failures: Sagging Hinges and Tired Frames
Not every door damage story starts with a crowbar. Raleigh doors sag on loosened hinges, scrape their thresholds, gap at the weatherstripping and let the summer in. Hinge-and-frame work is quiet carpentry: re-anchoring into repaired wood, resetting the geometry, renewing the seals — until the door closes the way it did on day one.

Doors re-hung to swing and latch true
-
Screw-torn hinge wood repaired so anchors hold
-
Weatherstripping renewed — $175
-
Glass entry doors re-glazed — from $198

“I have three kids, and they accidentally broke the tempered glass on our door. I contacted WowFix, but I had to wait for weeks for a technician. Despite the wait, I can't complain because they offered a reasonable price, and their technician did an excellent job replacing the glass.”

Door Repair in Raleigh — FAQ
Morning call, secured the same day. Then the system rebuild: splintered jamb wood cut out and replaced with laminated lumber (from $475) anchored deeper than the builder ever did, new lock and strike ($175), glass refabricated if it broke (from $198). The finished door is stronger at the strike than it was before the crowbar.
Before We Arrive
How to Prepare for Your WowFix Door Repair Visit
- 1
Photograph the door and the problem spot
Take one photo of the whole door and a close-up of the trouble area — the track, the handle, the glass, or the soft wood at the bottom. It lets us quote faster and bring the right parts.
- 2
Note what the door is doing wrong
Jot down the symptom — grinds or sticks on the track, won't lock or latch, drafts around the edges, fog or cracks in the glass, soft flaking wood at the bottom. It tells us whether it's hardware, a glass-only swap (from $198), or wood work.
- 3
Clear the doorway and a few feet on each side
Move mats, planters and furniture back from both sides of the door — most door work happens from inside and outside at once, and a clear opening keeps the visit quick.
- 4
Find any brand sticker or paperwork
Door brands hide their stickers on the edge or hinge side. If you spot one — or still have install paperwork — set it aside. Not required, but it helps us match rollers, locks and glass on the first trip.
- 5
Make sure we can reach the outside of the door
Unlock gates, secure pets, and clear the deck or patio path. With access to both faces of the door, nearly every repair finishes in a single visit.

The Rot Comes Out, Not the Window
We fabricate an exact-profile piece from laminated lumber and splice it in.
Shattered Pane, Same-Day Secure
New glass built to the window's exact size — frame and trim untouched.
Broken Glass on a Brick Ranch

Fog That Won't Wipe Off
A failed seal, not a failed window: the sealed unit is swapped, the frame stays.
