Door Repairs After Burglary
Exterior Timber Doors Repairs & Replacements
If your door has been kicked in, damaged during a burglary, or weakened by an attempted break-in, it can leave your London home or business feeling unsafe. At MJ Kloss Carpentry and Joinery, we provide professional door repair and replacement services in London designed to restore security and peace of mind.
We don’t offer a “quick patch-up” service. Instead, we focus on high-quality repairs and replacements that last. Our skilled London carpenters carefully assess the damage to your door, frame, and fittings, making sure everything is repaired or replaced to a secure and reliable standard.

Repairing Doors Damaged by Burglary in London
A door forced open during a burglary or attempted break-in is often left with more than surface damage. Frames split, hinges loosen, and locks may no longer hold properly. Our London door repair specialists carry out detailed work to strengthen your entry points rather than just covering up the damage.
Our burglary repair service includes:
Restoring broken or split door frames
Repairing and replacing damaged architraves
Re-securing or replacing hinges
Fitting new locks, latches, and security bolts
Reinforcing weakened timber to make doors more resistant
Secure Door Replacement in London
Sometimes the safest solution is to fit a brand-new door. We supply and install high-quality, secure doors across London, designed to withstand forced entry. Whether you prefer a traditional wooden door, a reinforced model, or a modern composite, we ensure the installation is precise and built to last.
Every replacement door is fitted securely within the frame, operates smoothly, and locks firmly. We can also recommend upgraded locking systems to increase your security.

Window Repairs After a Break-In
Burglars often target windows as well as doors. If your London property has broken or damaged windows, we can help. From repairing timber frames to replacing shattered glass, our service restores both safety and appearance.
