Another option is to make use of an oil-based wax. These are available at any hardware retailer. Make sure to melt the wax before using. You can also use a non-scented paraffin candle.

Additionally you can also use an electric toothbrush to brush off any dirt. This will make it much easier to clean the hinges.

If none of these strategies work, it's likely that you will need to replace your door. It is also important to determine if the door's creaking is caused by a rotten frame or a misaligned framing.

Replacing a damaged door that doesn't stay latched or is difficult to close

It can be a hassle to discover that your door does not shut or latch as it should. Fortunately, there are simple solutions that can get your door back to normal in no time at all.

The first step is to inspect the door. You'll want to look for indications of a faulty strike plate and latch. A latch that isn't in alignment with the jamb can be often the cause.

Another problem is when the bottom plate or latch side brackets are not aligned. This is often caused due to uneven surfaces. However you can correct it by tapping the sides of the latch into the wall.

If the door remains stuck, you might need to adjust the strike plate. The screws that keep the plate in place should be released. When the latch is set correctly, it must be able of contacting the strike plate and close.

You can also use a metal filing to smooth the strike plate hole. This makes the hole bigger and allow the latch to come into contact with it.

Shimming the hinges could be used to fix the misalignment of a door. Shimming is the act of inserting a piece of cardboard between the hinges, jamb, and the jamb. After that, you can raise the bottom of the door.

The door could be jammed or sliding. Sagging doors indicate that there is an issue with the hinge or latch. You can lift the door from its frame and adjust the screws that secure it.

If none of these steps solve the issue, you may have to replace the entire set. If you require a new latch set or a different latch type it is possible to do it yourself with some basic tools.
