"David did a great job on our rental property. He finished installing a door that did not fit properly. He then replaced our Garage Door and Security Door as well. We were happy with the quality of the work after he was done and he charged us a fair price (based upon research and comparisons) for the work done. David is also a great individual and easy to talk to / get along with."
"Everyone I talked to via phone or arrived at my house to measure or install was wonderful to work with. I look forward to buying closet doors and a new front door from them. They were exceptional in their service."
"These guys did a great job resetting our front door. They were extremely professional, fast, and got the job done. I’m looking forward to hiring them for our next project!"
"Angel did an amazing job remodeling my master shower and floors. He was attentive and worked efficiently, keeping me updated throughout the process. I will definitely reach out to him again for any future home projects. I have friends who are wanting his services when they are ready to remodel their floors and bathrooms."
"I was very impressed with the service provided by them. The handyman was punctual, professional, and knowledgeable. He efficiently repaired my leaky faucet and installed new light fixtures. The work was done to a high standard, and the price was fair. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone in need of handyman services."

"Daniel came out and replaced the seal on the bottom of our garage door which mice had chewed through. Our door was 20+ years old so I expected the track that the seal went into to be outdated and it was, I couldn't even find it on Youtube, so a new track was required for the new seal to fit into. Parts and labor for this 8' metal track was only $50 in addition to the quote for the actual seal. I priced this out beforehand with competitors and I must say the pricing for everything with 1A was the lowest and very fair. I will definitely call 1A when needed again. Daniel...friendly, hard working guy with no upsell. Felt very comfortable with him. Could not have asked for a better man to help us out. Honestly. Thanks much! Rick"
"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."
"My garage door was behaving erratically when I attempted to close it -- to the point where I had to manually assist' in the closing of the door. Obviously, I needed to have it serviced. I went to my 'go-to' site for a referral and discovered ELK GROVE OVERHEAD DOORS on Angie's List. The technician, David, arrived shortly after the scheduled time and proceeded to inspect the door. He swapped out the door rollers and even added addtitional brackets to better support the door rails. Before he left, he did additional little things to ensure a quieter garage door operation, as well as giving me tips on future maintenance. Overall, a dream experience! My garage door now works like it did on it's initial installation some 10 years ago. Thanks David and thanks ELK GROVE OVERHEAD DOORS !! "
When choosing between an inward- or outward-swinging door, there’s no right answer. Inward-swinging doors are great for avoiding debris and keeping hinges inside for added security. Alternatively, outward-swinging doors can give you more space inside your home, and some homeowners feel they’re harder to force open. Ultimately, neither is “better,” but a door expert can help you figure out which fits your needs.
Interior and exterior door openings are typically 80 inches high, with openings 29¼ inches wide for interior doors and 35 inches wide for exterior doors. If your couch is smaller than these measurements, it should fit through the door frame.
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.
WD-40 can be used on squeaky door hinges, but it is generally considered a temporary, short-term solution rather than a long-term fix. While it can silence a squeak in a pinch by breaking down rust and grime, it is not a true lubricant, as it contains only a small amount of lubricating oil that evaporates quickly. Using WD-40 alone may lead to the squeak returning and can attract dirt and dust, potentially causing more wear on the hinge over time. For a more effective and lasting solution, it is recommended to first use WD-40 to clean the hinge, then wipe it clean. Afterward, apply a dedicated lubricant such as silicone spray, white lithium grease, a metal or plastic lubricant, or an oil-based product like petroleum jelly.
Wood is by no means the only type of front door material on the market. You can also choose from several other options, including:
Aluminum: Low-maintenance and affordable, but lacks insulation
Fiberglass: Offers excellent insulation and durability for a decent price
Glass: Offers beauty but less security or insulation, and a higher price tag
Steel: One of the most economical options if you’re looking for affordability, low maintenance, high security levels, and a door that will last
Wrought iron: Attractive and secure, but costly and heavy
