"Everyone at Art of Doors is a true professional. They answer their emails, their calls quickly and their communication is excellent. Ryan, our door repair person, was fabulous. He fixed things we did not think could be fixed an explained a lot to us about our door and his repairs. I would never hire another company to deal with a door. These people are worth their weight in gold!"
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"Wonderfully. Jesus Hurtado is your guy. Awesome. One of the tubes was retrofitted into a existing roof/ceiling penetration where a chiminea and ducting had to be removed, and the hole enlarged; the other was new and included a solar powered night light. Very happy."
"I called for an estimate and took the tables in to see if glass could be cut for the tops. The merchant was very helpful and had the glass ready the next day and the quality was excellent. The merchant was very friendly and helpful."
"I was referred to this company and I received a prompt reply, a request for additional information to help get the job done and a promise to get the work done at a set time. The company owner arrived at the scheduled time with everything needed to fix the broken door parts. He also serviced a separate door at no additional charge and offered ideas to take good care of the doors to prevent problems. I would recommend them to anyone who truly wants the best service."
"Beyond our expectations. We were told automatic garage door couldn't be installed. Installer made it work. Door is quiet, works marvelously. All personnel we have been in contact with have been courteous, friendly, helpful. Appointments are on time, sometimes sooner. We are both elderly and this door is such a benefit for us. We are on fixed income and found costs to be very reasonable."
"Duke did a great job installing the grab bars in my elderly parents bathroom. He is very knowledgeable in the construction field so can do just about anything you need done in your home. He is friendly and professional. He has very affordable rates which I appreciate since I'm retired and on limited income. I will definitely hire him again and encourage anyone reading this review to call him."
"Pablo is phenomenal at all tasks. He put together: Dining Table Assembled Chairs Assembled a Coffee Table Built a Crawl Space Door Painted with a Sprayer He did everything to perfection and was very quick with each job. Pablo has common sense and is trustworthy."
"From beginning to end, American Pride walked me through every step of getting my new windows. Small company with super personable people, John made me feel so comfortable with my purchase and the install team was professional and courteous. My new windows are amazing! I can already tell a difference!"
Screen doors (sometimes called barrier doors) and security doors serve different primary functions. A screen door's main purpose is to allow airflow and keep pests out, featuring a lightweight frame and a mesh screen. A security door, however, is a heavy-duty structure designed to prevent unauthorized entry. Security doors are installed with permanent screws into the home's walls and are often equipped with deadbolts or other heavy-duty locking mechanisms for enhanced protection against intruders.
The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.
It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.
A security door costs an average of $1,400, but costs can range from $600 for a simple screen or steel door to more than $4,600 for a wrought-iron security door. You can also buy specialized locks separately for $200 to $600. If you decide to hire a pro to install your new security door, you’ll spend around $275 to $425 on labor costs.
While spring and summer’s temperate weather can make the project more pleasant and give you more daytime hours to start and complete it, there’s otherwise no advantage to framing a door in spring or summer versus fall and winter.
Yes, basic dusting of doors, door hardware, and door glass is usually included when you hire a house cleaner to clean your home. A house cleaner may also vacuum door frames or clean tracks in sliding doors if these tasks are requested. However, house cleaners generally will not touch up scuffs or other markings on doors. Consider hiring someone who repairs doors to handle these issues for you instead.
