Rotted Sill, Caught in Time
Decay cut out completely and rebuilt in real wood — no filler, no new window.

Not sure what it is?
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.
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.
Emergency or scheduled — assess the system, price the parts, rebuild once.
Frame, hinges, lock, glass, weatherstripping — damage clusters, so we check the system, not just the obvious break.
Frame wood from $475, locks $175, glass from $198 — line by line before work starts.
Wood spliced, hardware set, glass glazed — coordinated so the door comes back whole, not in appointments.
Slammed, locked and cycled with you watching — backed by a written workmanship warranty.

No stock footage, no actors — an actual WowFix job: a rotted, fogged-out window brought back to flawless, like-new condition.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Decay cut out completely and rebuilt in real wood — no filler, no new window.

The pane is the part that failed — so the pane is the part we replace.
A failed seal, not a failed window: the sealed unit is swapped, the frame stays.
