We have used the company for nearly two years and have ALWAYS been incredibly pleased with them. They have never failed to do the job we hired them to do and they often go the extra mile. They have made extra time to walk our dog for us even when we didn't specifically ask for it. Our dog appreciates their time and attention and so do we. They always leave a note for us at the end of the sitting letting us know how both animals did. They are incredibly personal with the animals and I love that they work hard to keep the same sitter with you every time you schedule them. It lets them get to know your pets and your pets get to know them. I think it makes a big difference to our dog to recognize someone coming in the door instead of it being someone different every time. They also ask that we call them once we arrive home from a trip so that they know we made it back without any flight delays, etc., because in the event we were delayed they would do whatever they had to in order to make sure our pet sitting continued until we are able to return. They truly have the pets best interest in mind. We love that all employees are thoroughly vetted and background checked before they are ever allowed in your home. It gives you extra peace of mind knowing that they are so careful about who they employ. We couldn't ask for a better company and are so thankful we found them. We would have been in a mess many times without them.

During my current research I found little had changed with Clopay garage doors (which I have been happy with), but the nearest authorized sales and service center was in Kennesaw Georgia (129 miles from Columbus). Since Home Depot would have subcontracted my job out to Builder Specialties of Kennesaw I cut Home Depot (the middle man) out of the equation and easily shaved a few hundred dollars off the job. Since I already knew what I wanted and needed by speaking with the Home Depot staff I began my telephone consultation a couple weeks before Thanksgiving with Kurtis Craig, a sales representative from Builder Specialties. Kurtis quickly understood that I had done my homework and that same day before I could get home from work he had emailed me a quote for the replacement panel. The next day or so I contacted Kurtis again to confirm I did in fact receive the quote and that I wanted him to proceed with ordering the panel (since I chose a slightly thicker version of acrylic windows this was a special order). Kurtis proceeded to tell me he would put the order in but unfortunately specialty orders were beyond their control and in light of the Thanksgiving Holidays people (including himself, various office staff, suppliers and even myself) were taking vacation time. Builder Specialties notified me that my panel had came in around November the 29th and offered to schedule my install for which I chose my next day off 12/07. The installer, Robert called me about 45 minutes prior to arriving at my house, and was so precise and quick with the install that I thought I was watching someone from a NASCAR pit crew. Robert was very professional and explained everything he was going to do and the steps he needed to take to get the job done. At the end of the install he cleaned up after himself and asked if I had any questions or concerns with any other parts of the door or opener. Two things came to mind. 1. The garage door had always seemed to come down faster than others I knew having garage doors, and I told him I thought it should automatically reverse if while coming down it struck an object not within the safety beam. Robert quickly got his ladder and advised my torsion on the opener was set far too high and lowered the setting. This not only made the door run quieter but also allowed the door to reverse when tested by allowing to strike some of the packing cardboard while closing. 2. The second thing I told Robert about was the wall switch for opening / closing, and turning on the overhead light. This switch had a small red light built in but had I had never seen it illuminated. Robert quickly advised me that he was not familiar with the opener switch but asked if he could pop the cover off to take a look. I quickly approved and within less than a minute he stated that he thought the switch wires were reversed. Robert stated it was not a danger because the voltage was so low but asked if he could switch the two wires. I quickly agreed and within less than another minute he had the cover on, and the never before seen light was shining bright. Robert was quick to provide professionalism and ensure 100% customer satisfaction.

FAQs for security door installation projects in Opelika, AL
The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits.
Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150
Smart home lighting: $15–$90
Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100
Smart thermostat: $130–$500
Door installation usually takes three and four hours, including removing the old door and frame, fitting the new door and frame in place, shimming it to make sure it’s perfectly level, and making adjustments to the hinges and locking mechanisms to ensure proper functionality. A door-hanging professional can replace an interior door in between one and two hours. Door installation will take significantly longer if your installer needs to create a wall opening, and it can take less time if the existing door frame remains.
The average cost to install a door is around $1,100, but you could pay anywhere from $150 for a hollow-core interior door installation up to $2,000 or a high-end exterior door installation. There are a few cost factors to consider to get an accurate price, including whether your wall opening exists, the type of door, the quality and security of the door, whether you need to replace the frame, and the door size. You can expect to pay $150 to $700 for a standard 36-by-80-inch door and between $400 and $1,600 for an80-by-48-inch door.
Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.
It’s possible to install a door yourself if the wall opening already exists, but the work is rather complicated, and a professional installation is usually well worth the investment. For your door to work and close properly, you’ll need to shim and level the door frame in your wall perfectly, which can be difficult. Additionally, we recommend you always hire a professional door installer to place an exterior door, as mistakes during the installation process can lead to poor security for your home.
