What this looks like in Kanata
Doors are the single most common call we take in Kanata, and it is a straightforward consequence of the housing age. Homes built fifteen to twenty-five years ago are past the point where the framing has finished settling, so interior doors that hung fine for a decade start catching on the latch side. Builder-grade closet doors in these subdivisions are the other half of it — the rollers and pivots were the cheapest part of the house and they are the first to wear out.
What we get called for here
- Bedroom doors catching on the latch edge, worst in February
- Bifold and sliding closet doors that have dropped off their track
- Front doors letting cold in where the weatherstrip has compressed flat
- Smart locks that jam because the door itself is no longer square

My whole house has sticking doors — is that a problem?
It is a very normal sign of a house in this age bracket finishing its settling. Individually each door needs a hinge or strike adjustment; collectively it is one visit and a couple of hours.
My smart lock keeps failing — is the lock faulty?
Usually not. Smart locks have limited motor torque, so a misalignment that a manual deadbolt would push through will stop one dead. Nine times out of ten the door needs squaring, not the lock replacing.
