Door is sticking, loose, or rattling

What to check if the door is hard to close, loose on hinges, or rattling — plus when to call for replacement.

Door is hard to close

  • Check that the door frame is plumb (vertical) using a level
  • Tighten the hinge screws if any feel loose
  • Check that nothing has obstructed the door swing path

The door frame can shift slightly during the first few weeks as the cabin settles. Minor adjustment of the hinge screws typically restores smooth operation. If the door binds hard or the frame is visibly out of plumb, contact our team.

Door is loose or rattles

  • Check hinge screws for tightness
  • Check the door seal for compression damage or deformation

Tighten any loose screws. If the seal is damaged, contact our team for replacement.
