"This company had lots of excellent reviews but I have lived in S. Florida long enough to be cautious. I was pleasantly surprised at how prompt the owner was to give me an estimate and how quickly he scheduled my job. The crew showed up on time, did great work and cleaned up after themselves. I will use this company again for any door or window work and highly recommend them."
"East Coast Windows and Doors recently installed our and three neighbors’ hurricane windows. From the estimate to the installation, every aspect of our experience was professional and courteous. Thank you Rob, Carlos and Victor for helping us all feel safer during hurricane season."
"I recently had the pleasure of working with ASP SuperHome for the installation of new impact windows and doors in my home, and I couldn't be more satisfied with their service. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with the utmost professionalism. I would like to especially thank the salesperson Peter for his knowledge, commitment and timely response to issues throughout the project. He helped me select strong 9/16” windows with visible transmission of 60% (thus, the outside from inside looks bright) while the solar heat gain was limited to 32% (thus, the house is protected from excessive heat). The windows are rated for +90 and -90 pressure, which is well above the Miami Dade guidelines. The doors are strong and aesthetic. In summary, I received strong, hurricane protection doors and windows that also shield me from heat and noise, move smoothly, and are visually appealing. The quality installers at ASP, Yosyenny and Emilio, demonstrated exceptional skill and attention to detail. They worked diligently and efficiently, ensuring that each window and door was perfectly fitted and securely installed. Despite the extensive work, they maintained a neat and organized workspace, leaving no mess behind. Roy is also a capable installer. Thanks also to Michel and Sergio for project management, and to Emily, Luisa and JJ for the coordination. Overall, my experience with ASP was outstanding. Their commitment to providing high-quality service and their dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of window and door installation services."
"Rey did a fantastic job with my Daughter’s Sliding Doors and Screen Door. The doors were very hard to move and the ScreenDoor was jammed in the track. Rey was able to free up the screen door and replaced the rollers. He also lubricated the track. The doors now slide easily, and she can now start using the screen door again. She is thrilled with the job Rey did. I highly recommend Rey and A&N SLIDING DOORS AND WINDOWS REPAIR INC !"
"My project was a front door that needed quite a bit of repairs. Nahoom showed up on time, was very detailed as to how he would repair it and the materials involved, including matching paint. He did a superb job. The door is even better than before it was broken. The result exceeded my expectations."
"I found out my cabinets could be reinforced and covered inside and out side, along with new hardware. Fixing a cabinet door that needed to be screwed back to the frame was appreciated along with the quote from Anthony's Custom Cabinets Inc."
"Window Wall did an incredible job installing our new double pane windows they completed the job for an entire house in two days. They took down and replaced blinds and window treatment after they installed the window windows moved furniture as needed and were very professional. I highly recommend them."
"I'm very PLEASED with ACE Window & Door, Jason was professional and reliable. The process was very smooth and they did an excellent job with the addâ l window that was needed. Not only did they work with us with our immediate needs, they also made sure that we were pleased with the finish job. We will definitely be customers for future projects. Thank you Jason at ACE Window & Door!!!"
Look at the door from the outside, or the key side. If the hinges are on the left side of the door, it’s a left-hand swing. If the hinges are on the right side of the door, it’s a right-hand swing. You can also think of it as which hand you would most likely use to open the door from the outside when considering whether it’s a right-hand vs. left-hand door.
As long as you do it carefully, you can sand and restain hollow core doors. However, it’s risky because the veneers on hollow core doors are so thin that sanding and restaining might cause damage to the doors. If you do move forward with this project, sand the doors lightly with a medium-grit sandpaper.
A door sill is the bottom portion of your door frame, while a threshold is the transition piece that separates the two types of flooring between rooms, or serves as the transition between the interior and exterior on an exterior door. The threshold sits on top of the door sill. A kick plate is a protective plate that sits against the face of a door to prevent damage to the door from feet and shoes. You’ll usually only find kick plates on exterior doors, while every door has a door sill, and most exterior and interior doors have a threshold.
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.
Barn doors do not always require a bottom track, especially if a high-quality top track is used to stabilize the door. However, a bottom track is often recommended to ensure the door operates smoothly, prevent it from scratching the floor, and keep it from pushing inward or outward, which could cause damage. A bottom track also keeps the door more secure and properly anchored. In some cases, an interior barn door can hang solely from a top track without a bottom guide. If you do install a bottom track, it should be placed six to eight inches from the floor and be at least twice as wide as the door.
