"David, the owner, was very responsive to my call for a new garage door; he provided me with a comprehensive quote for the work that needed to be done. And, he had the new garage door installed and working within the time frame that he had given me for when he would be able to get the job done."

"I contact AMG Doors through a recommendation from a friend. I contacted Michael and he was very knowledgeable about the different types of door materials and what material would work best for my area ( I get a lot of sun at my front door). Michael talked me into getting a thermatru front door and I obsoletely love it! AMG Doors already has a patio door on order for my home!"

"One night our garage door cable slipped off the drum, leaving the door jammed, crooked, and starting to bend the tracks. I contacted Garage Doors at 8 am the next day and two technicians were at our house by 10! They were thorough and professional, not only fixing the issue but also performing a complete calibration to make sure the door was running as good as new. With kids at home, I know the potential danger of a malfunctioning garage door, so having it repaired so quickly and expertly was a massive relief."

"Gilbert helped fix a front door that wouldn’t close. He helped my mother and I after 6pm when we were not able to find anyone else. He did a great job getting the door to fully close. Very respectful and kind. He showed up when he said he would and cleaned after himself. We will definitely work with him again."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Door jammers are designed for easy installation and portability. You can use them at home or while traveling if you’re looking for added security. Slide the foot under the door, then turn the bolt to tighten until it is fitted to the door. Look for options with a padded, adjustable foot to fit tricky door edges and avoid damage.

If you want to let in plenty of sunlight while keeping your home well insulated, your best bet is a patio-style door with two doors with full-view windows, including one primary door and one secondary door behind it, such as a screen door or storm door. This two-door system will let in plenty of natural light while maximizing insulation.

A slab door is a standalone door without a frame or hardware. A prehung door is a complete set that includes the door, frame, hinges, and sometimes the doorknob and lockset.

In most cases, a prehung door is the better and easier option to install, especially for DIY projects or exterior applications, as they often come pre-weatherproofed. They require fewer tools and less experience to install properly. Although prehung doors are heavier and have a higher upfront cost, the investment is often worthwhile for a complete upgrade that includes a new frame.

A slab door may be a better choice if you are on a tight budget, have a custom-sized wall opening, or only need to replace the door while keeping the existing frame. While the initial cost is lower, you will need to purchase all the hardware separately and do more DIY work to hang it, which may not result in significant time or money savings.

To build a standard size, six-panel door yourself, you’ll need four 2-foot by 6-foot boards, one 2-foot by 8-foot or 2-foot by 10-foot board, and a sheet of 3/4-inch, paint-grade plywood. The 2-foot by 6-foot boards will serve as your stiles, top rail, and horizontal and vertical mullions, and the wider board will serve as the bottom rail, which is usually wider than the other horizontal pieces. The plywood will serve as the panels, but you’ll need around five 1-foot by 6-foot boards to make your own panels if you want to stain the door rather than paint it.

If a wooden door swells from temporary humidity or moisture, it should return to its original size as the environment dries out. However, if the door remains swollen due to prolonged exposure to moisture or water damage, it may not fully revert to its original shape and could require repairs or replacement. Using a dehumidifier and ensuring your doorway has good ventilation can help prevent and reduce swelling in wooden doors.
