Hi I need a help with sagging door. It’s tighter in the middle and have to push harder to open and close.
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Harry11. It's terrific to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about a jamming door.
It looks like the door has sagged, as indicated by the gap at the top right. You can try packing out the lower hinge to lift the door slightly, which might alleviate the jamming in the middle. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, you may need to remove a small amount of timber from the middle edge of the door to create more clearance. If you're not confident in adjusting the door yourself, it could be worth getting a professional to help.
If the jamming is only slight, a quick fix might be to lightly sand the section of the door edge that’s sticking, then repaint it to match.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
