In this episode of TORQUE & TAPE, we tackle one of the most common and frustrating home maintenance issues: the sagging door. When your door begins to scrape the floor or refuses to latch without a forceful shove, it’s easy to assume the house has settled or the wood has warped beyond repair. However, as we explore in this session, the solution rarely involves a hand plane or a contractor. By standing beside a seasoned mentor, you will learn to diagnose the "wedge" gap at the top of your frame and understand why those standard one-inch factory screws are failing to hold the weight of your entry. We dive deep into the mechanical relationship between your door jamb and the structural wall studs, teaching you how to anchor the hinges back into the "bones" of your home using simple three-inch wood screws and a bit of patience.
