"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."

"Make A Choice Home Exterior was a company that exceeded our expectations. After interviewing 5 different companies we knew they were the one that was going to assist us in the largest financial decision we had to make. We had never remodeled the exterior of our home, or any others and the task seemed overwhelming. Chuck was extremely knowledgeable in the process and took the time to listen to our concerns. His professional approach on â what is reasonable and customaryâ when starting a project of this scale made us both feel at ease. He provided many different options for repair, replacement and kept it all within our stated budget. Choosing the paint colors was the only thing he said was, a personal preference and mentioned that Sherwin Williams is the best choice for exterior paint, and they have any colors that meet your expectations. Project took 2 weeks and came in on budget. Their crew was employed by MAC and not sub-contractors. They were on time, cleaned up at the end of each day and very respectful of our property. On Time. On Budget. Amazing results. If you are interested in having work done, please contact Chuck and the team at MAC."

Doors questions, answered by experts

You should generally cut between 1/8-inch and 1 inch when planing a door. If you cut off more than that, you risk damaging the door. Planing too much from the bottom of your door can cause noticeable gaps, so it’s always better to start with as thin of a section as possible and work in thin layers until your door no longer sticks.

Most modern door knobs will all fit in standard, modern doors, so if you know your door was made in the last 50 years or so, you should be fine buying a standard replacement door knob. The only exception would be a thumb latch handleset for an exterior door, as this type of door knob may not fit your door without drilling a mounting hole for the bottom of the handle. Antique or custom doors might also have different sizes and knob mounting holes, so call in a professional if you don’t believe your door is a standard one.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Instead of a bifold door, you might look into installing French doors, pocket doors, or sliding doors. Each has its own pros and cons. French doors offer the dual-door advantages that bifold doors do, and pocket doors are excellent space savers—though you’ll need to create a wall cavity to have them installed. 

Doors are made from a variety of materials, including fiberglass, wood, and steel. Fiberglass is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a durable, long-lasting, and energy-efficient option that comes in various colors, although it’s not eco-friendly. Steel provides durability and maximum security but is not eco-friendly or energy-efficient. Wood is an energy-efficient, eco-friendly door solution, but you’ll spend more.
