Is your exterior door drafty, damaged, or no longer secure?
A1 Handyman provides professional exterior door repair and replacement in Boise, ID to help homeowners improve security, weather protection, and curb appeal. If your front or back entry door is drafty, damaged, or no longer closing properly, our licensed and insured team can repair or replace it with precision and care.
A properly functioning exterior door is especially important in Idaho’s climate, where seasonal temperature changes can cause doors to swell, shift, or lose their seal over time.

We focus specifically on exterior entry doors, including front doors, back doors, storm doors, and patio doors. We do not service garage doors or garage door openers.
Professional Exterior Door Services for Boise Homes
A properly functioning exterior door is essential for home security, energy efficiency, and protection from the elements. If your door is hard to open, misaligned, letting in cold air, or simply outdated, we can repair or replace it efficiently and affordably.
Common Exterior Door Issues We Repair
- Doors that stick, sag, or drag on the floor
- Loose hinges, broken latches, or damaged frames
- Worn-out weatherstripping or threshold seals
- Drafty or poorly insulated doors
- Storm doors that won’t close or have torn screens
- Patio doors with misaligned rollers or broken locks
Many draft, sealing, and alignment issues can be corrected with adjustment, weatherstripping, or threshold repair without replacing the entire door.
Faulty exterior doors can create serious problems, including security concerns and exposure to the elements, which often end up costing more than timely professional repair or replacement.
These issues are most common on front and back entry doors that experience daily use and seasonal weather exposure.
