"We were very pleased with the work performed by Marc and his team. We had 11 windows, a door, and gutters installed. I researched numerous contractors for windows. MWT’s prices were fair and we were happy with the Alside Mezzo windows chose. I was most Impressed with Marc’s responsiveness. We had some minor follow items to be addressed after our installation. My calls were always returned the same day and he quickly resolved my needs. I would be happy to use MWT again."

"Michael Spreen of Lakeshore Carpenters spent time to understand my goals, including other work I need done beyond the French doors. He took measurements and explained my options and his assessment of the different windows in my home, not just for the French Doors. So I hired him to replace my French doors. His approach was extremely customer-focused and I'm very happy with the speed and quality of his work."

"Everyone did an excellent job and it did not feel like an intrusion at all. They cleaned up everything and you would never have known they were here and we love our new door. They explained things to me as they went along so that I would understand how the project was going. And they played with our dogs. Can’t wait to have them back."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Residential exterior doors should swing inward. While this cuts into your living space and prevents you from putting furniture near the inside of your door, it also means that the hinges will only be accessible from the interior. Hinges that sit on the outside of your home leave your property far less secure, as someone looking to get in could simply unscrew them and remove your door. Additionally, inswing exterior doors will be operable even if you have snow or other obstructions outside.

Screen doors (sometimes called barrier doors) and security doors serve different primary functions. A screen door's main purpose is to allow airflow and keep pests out, featuring a lightweight frame and a mesh screen. A security door, however, is a heavy-duty structure designed to prevent unauthorized entry. Security doors are installed with permanent screws into the home's walls and are often equipped with deadbolts or other heavy-duty locking mechanisms for enhanced protection against intruders.

Fire doors are constructed to have certain resistance levels regarding fire. A traditional door can typically resist fire for less than one minute, whereas fire doors can resist it for 30 to 120 minutes, depending on the fire door rating. Fire doors give you and your family a better chance of safely escaping during a fire than standard doors. 

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.
