A Small Door Gap Can Be a Sign of a Larger Problem
A small gap around an exterior door may not seem like a major concern, especially when the door still opens, closes, and locks. However, changes in the spacing around an entry door can affect indoor comfort, weather protection, security, and the overall performance of the door system. In some cases, a growing or uneven gap can also provide an early indication that the door, frame, weatherstripping, or other components are beginning to deteriorate.
