"Dave, the service guy arrived right on time and started checking out the door & track. He removed the door & found the rollers were in good shape, not worn, but very clogged with dirt. One of the rollers was frozen and would not turn at all. Dave cleaned, lubed & adjusted the rollers, cleaned the track and re-installed the door. It now operates as smoothly as when first new. Dave also showed me where to oil periodically to keep the rollers operating smoothly."

"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."

"Pro Movers was an excellent choice. They deserve 10 stars. Moving is a very stressful ordeal, but Pro Movers took away the stress. I was doing a local move from a 4bdr 2 story house into a storage unit. They were affordable, on time, very professional, responsive to my needs, and handled my furniture with care throughout the entire moving process. After the job was completed, the owner followed up to ensure that I was satisfied with the move and the movers. If you want the job done right, CALL PRO MOVERS!!"

"From start to finish, Gregory has been very helpful, courteous, respectful, and professional. He has offered very helpful insight and knowledge. Gregory at this point, has done quite a few projects for the company. He makes sure I understand what needs to be done, stays in contact throughout the job and doesn't price jab. He always works with my schedule and responds very quickly. I wish to neve lose this company, we've not had the best lucky with this type of work before, I feel that our children are 100% safe with the work Hoosker's has completed and continues to complete for us."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Longer screws can make a door more secure, but this isn’t a foolproof method for security. Replacing the short screws in your door’s strike plate with screws that are 3 inches long will make it much more difficult for an intruder to force entry by kicking down the door, but it won’t do anything to stop them from picking the lock. 

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.

Spacing a door is tricky since you need to leave enough of a gap for the door to move freely and not get stuck when the slab and frame contract and expand in dry and humid conditions. The ideal gap between a doorframe and slab is 1/8 of an inch. If the gap is any larger, the door will feel drafty. But if the gap is any smaller, the slab can get stuck due to weather changes.

There are certainly perks to hiring a general contractor, but we recommend a closet professional. The reason is that their pricing may make more sense for your project. General contractors tend to search out bigger projects, and because of this, will attach a premium to smaller amounts of work. A closet pro may also have access to a wider range of materials than general contractors (and may be able to negotiate better discounts). 

High-tech solutions and strategic placement can help ensure the safety of your pet door. Pet doors can pose security risks, as well as the risk of stray or wild animals entering your home, but modern pet doors offer options like collar-based sensors to ensure doors will only open for your pet, and installing a pet door in an out-of-sight location or in a wall rather than a door can help to avoid intruders using the door to gain access to your home.
