Door Frame Repair Around Strike Plate Area

Door frame repair around strike plate area after fixing crack with epoxy wood filler and paint


Crack around the strike plate making your door look worn or weak?

The surface is reinforced, shaped, sanded smooth, and colour-matched with paint.
The result is a solid, clean repair that restores both strength and appearance.

epoxy wood rebuild, sanding, priming, and colour-matched painting.

finished flush with the frame, and checked for proper latch alignment.
