Q: What kind of wood do you use to make a barn door?

• <div><p>You can use a variety of wood to build a barn door, but the most common options include 1-by boards and 2-by boards for the backing and the decorative boards on the front of the door. Softwoods like pine will save you some money and should hold up well, while hardwoods like maple and oak will stand up to more wear and tear. You could also build the backer out of plywood to minimize the cuts you need to make. Whatever you decide on, make sure the width of the wood is compatible with the mounting brackets you buy.</p></div>

Q: Do longer screws make a door more secure?

• <div><p>Longer screws can make a door more secure, but this isn&rsquo;t a foolproof method for security. Replacing the short screws in your door&rsquo;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&rsquo;t do anything to stop them from picking the lock. </p></div>

Q: Can I install a door without a frame?

• <div><p>You can install many types of interior doors without a frame as long as the door is prehung or there is already an existing door in the opening. If the opening has never had a door installed, you will need to install a frame with the door. Consult a professional door installer to inspect the opening to determine whether or not it&rsquo;s possible to place a door there without a frame.</p></div>

Q: How big a gap do you need for bifold doors?

• <div><p>Check the package of your bifold door. The width shown is half an inch larger than the bifold set. This allows at least 1/4 inch between the side jamb and pivot. When installing the top track, saw the track down to leave approximately 1/6 inch on each end. This will ensure your bifold door folds and unfolds smoothly without getting stuck in the frame.</p></div>

Q: Do doors stick more in summer or winter?

• <div><p>Doors get more sticky in the summer. Contrary to popular belief, doors can also stick in the winter since humidity causes doors to stick during both seasons. However, thermal expansion and humidity in the summer mean that the thermal heat and moisture in the air both play a role in causing a door to stick.</p></div>

It was okay. Whoever did the work got a lot of soot inside of the house and there was some hand prints left on our wall and a door. In terms of pricing, we had it done once before by a different company and I think it was about the same.
