Pelican was slightly higher than the lowest bidder, but we were much more comfortable with Tim the owner. We met a second time at his office/showroom to see full size samples, and Tim and Tito the job manager made a second trip to the house to discuss the installation as we had some complications (termite damage around one slider and more) that could cause problems with the install. They estimated 1 1/2 days for the install but warned us it could take 2 full days. On the promised day, Tito showed up with another installer and went to work. On day one, they removed the 3 existing sliders and got the new ones in place, level, and exterior trim installed. On day two, they did some minor tweaks, installed the windows and completed the interior trim. And of course it rained all day, which made their job a bit harder, but didn't impact the quality of the job. The new sliders have a new latching mechanism that allows the doors to be left open a crack, and provide extra security when they're closed. When I commented that I wished the opening could be a bit bigger, they offered to adjust it for us. We can now secure the door with either a 2 or 6 inch opening if we want. A minor point to most, but an example of their customer focus.

It was a one-piece door that opened with spring hinges and the door opener was the inital one that was installed when the house was built in 1981. Previous owners used the garage for storage and used the door manually and only when they needed to. Essentially, we got a whole new door installed and Daniel came out and did all on his own.

FAQs for security door installation projects in Poway, CA
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.
