Exterior Front Door Separating

6 years ago
Had a severe storm blow through a couple of nights ago, and now have this issue with my exterior front door. I assumed it was solid, but it is like the steel covering is separating from the core...I would like to attempt repair...it is a section probably 18" on both the inside and outside of door. My assumption is that I need to put some type of adhesive, then clamp to set.
I do not know what brand of door this is, so attached a pic of door, if that might be helpful. My question is what type of adhesive should I use?

Comments (6)I just cleaned around my front door last week. I used Dawn mixed with water and a brush, rinse with water, wipe with microfiber cloth. The area around my front door is aluminum siding. I need to clean the entire porch, 2 story decided to wait and tackle that in the spring. I did purchase a special sprayer that fits on the hose for the vinyl siding. I plan to use TSP and oxiclean in it because I can't reach those areas with a brush. I read that you shouldn't power wash the siding. Good luck and let us know what works for you.

Comments (14)Snap a photo on a sunny day then use the Sherwin Williams ColorSnap app to play with the colors. I would select a tone slightly darker than your mortar for the garage door and a color slightly darker than your darkest brick for the front door. I would then on the garage door install magnetic faux hinges and windows; this will add detail to the door, like the below house. I know they can be found on Amazon, not sure where else.

Comments (8)GC is trying to convince me it is ‘’normal’ for cabinetry built and finished in place as opposed to a factory finish....I think the affected doors need to be sanded and repainted so the problem doesn’t get worse. This has nothing to do about where the cabinetry was built and everything to do with using inferior material. No, sanding & repainting will not give acceptable results. The veneer layer has delaminated. Sanding will burn through the thin & bubbled veneer exposing a rough layer of wood with knots & voids and at cross direction. No way acceptable for repainting. The only fix is door replacement (solid wood frame & MDF panels) & not door replacement with more of the same....See MoreNeed help with exterior window colour and front door/garage door colou
