Age and use. Westwood Hills and Little Holmby homes date from the 1920s and 1930s, with original doors in frames that have settled for a century. The condos and apartments near the village and the Wilshire Corridor have doors and closers that work all day. Hinges sag, closers fail and frames split at the lock.
Original doors in Westwood Hills are worth saving with a rebuilt frame and a rehang; condo and apartment doors usually need a closer, hinges or a strike, not a new door. We tell you on the call which way to go.
Plan on a quick one. Westwood is in the City of Los Angeles, which treats a same-size door change-out as an express permit, issued over the counter, and a new or larger opening as a plan-check job. Rehanging a door, rebuilding a frame and new hardware are ordinary repairs; we handle the permit when a new door needs one.
On the Wilshire Corridor and near the village, most door calls are closers that slam, unit doors that will not latch and hinges worn by daily use. A new closer, adjusted right, and a trued strike fix most of them in one visit.
Homes from the 1920s and 1930s with original solid doors, some in the hillside fire zone. We rebuild frames, rehang the originals and check the wildfire rule before a new exterior door.
Condo unit doors and closers that work all day, with association rules. We replace closers, locks and hinges and rehang unit doors so they latch quietly.
Apartments and duplexes with busy doors and frequent tenant turnover. We fix split frames, failed closers and sagging doors, several units in a visit for an owner or manager.
Call, or text a photo of the door, and the Westwood price, permit included if a new door needs one, is set on that call and reaches you in writing before anything is booked.
Hinges, closers, strike plates, deadbolts, shims, weatherstrip, jamb stock and the usual locksets ride up Wilshire Boulevard with the technician, so a Westwood door is normally finished the first time we come.
We measure the opening first and tell you what size and swing to buy, same-size for the express permit. Then the frame is repaired, and your door goes into it straight, sealed, with the hardware fitted.
Old door, trim and spent hardware go out with the technician, and you keep the one-year workmanship warranty in writing along with the permit paperwork.
Westwood is in the City of Los Angeles. A same-size, same-type door change-out is an express permit, issued over the counter, while a new or larger opening goes through plan check; rehangs, frame repairs and new hardware need none. Homes in the Westwood and Holmby hills sit in the very high fire hazard zone, so a new exterior door there is checked against the wildfire rule first.
California's residential code wants the door between the garage and the house to be solid wood or steel at least 1-3/8 inches thick, or rated for 20 minutes, and to close and latch on its own. Many older homes have a hollow-core door there or a closer that quit; we install the right door and the closer.
Westwood has no historic overlay zone, but condo associations on the Wilshire Corridor approve new unit doors. A repair that matches needs nothing; for a new door we put the size, style and finish in writing for the association.

Call 310-928-6211Call or text a photo, and the Westwood job is priced on the spot; most doors are scheduled within a few days. A rehang, a closer, new hardware or a frame repair is done in one visit, because those parts are already in the truck. A new door needing the express permit is planned around the permit.
Yes. We replace closers that slam or will not close, swap locks and hinges and rehang unit doors so they latch quietly, to the association's rules.
It tracks the work. A strike, a closer or a rehang is a quick job and priced as one. Rebuilding a frame on a 1920s house, or installing the new door you bought with its express permit, is a bigger job. Describe the door or text a photo and the Westwood price reaches you on the call, in writing, before anything goes on the schedule.
Yes. When an original door is past saving, we install the replacement you choose in the same size and style, trimmed to the old casing, so it reads as part of the house; the express permit comes with it.
We install them. The door itself you buy, at a home center or a door shop, after we measure the opening and give you the size and swing, which for a same-size change-out also keeps it an express permit. Then we repair the frame, hang the door, seal and trim it and fit the hardware. Prehung or slab, exterior or interior, French or sliding.
Yes, from either store, prehung or slab. Text the label or tell us the size and which way it swings, and the Westwood install is priced on the call. If it is an exterior door, the express permit is part of the job, and if the frame needs rebuilding first, you hear that before you buy.
For a new door, plan on an express permit: Westwood is in the City of Los Angeles, which treats a same-size door change-out as an over-the-counter permit. Repairs, a rehang or new hardware need none. We handle the permit as part of the job and tell you on the call.
