A sticking door doesn’t always need sanding. Start by noticing what it’s doing.

A few simple checks can help you explain the problem without taking anything apart:

1. Find where it catches.
Move the door slowly and watch for where it rubs the frame or floor. Stop if it resists; don’t force it.

2. Separate a rubbing problem from a latching problem.
If the door moves freely but won’t latch, the latch and the opening in the metal strike plate may not line up. That’s one possible cause, not the only one.

3. Notice when it happens.
Does it change with the seasons or humid weather? Wood doors and frames can swell with moisture. A pattern is a useful clue, but doesn’t prove the cause.

4. Look at the gaps.
Notice whether the space around the door looks uneven. A photo of the whole door and a close-up of the problem can help a pro understand what you’re seeing.

Avoid sanding or trimming until you know what’s causing the problem. Removing material won’t correct loose hinges or misaligned hardware.

If an exterior door won’t lock securely, or a door you rely on to exit is hard to open, arrange help promptly.

You don’t need to diagnose every problem yourself. “It rubs here, and started last week” is a useful place to start.
