"We were extremely satisfied with Jake's work. He's a hard working honest professional with an eye for detail, something rare these days. We can't say enough. In fact, we're worried he'll get too busy for us to get him back!"

Customers say: Quick response

"The door I bought before I called him did not fit just right with the existing hardware so he used some of his own to include boarding the top where there was space on my back-porch. He did not even raise the price originally quoted at all and was happy to complete everything. He was efficient and clean and did quality work for a great price! I would definitely recommend Door Expert to anyone."

"Mike was fabulous! He was super respectful and was in and out in a jiffy! We are new to the area and he was able to come the very next day after I called. One of the items I asked him to fix, he did a quick trick and it was fixed - he didn't even charge me. Mike was very reasonably priced and we will definitely use him again. I highly recommend Mike for any of your contractor/ handyman needs!"

Doors questions, answered by experts

While both sides of a front door should get painted for aesthetic reasons, you don’t have to do each side at the same time. As a matter of fact, you’ll probably want a different paint type and color for the interior section of the door than the exterior side. Consider each side of the door your personal canvas and make the paint match any nearby decor. 

Interior door thresholds are usually attached using finish nails, and some contractors will also use construction adhesive under the threshold to hold it in place. Exterior door thresholds are more commonly screwed to prevent them from pulling up when people step on the raised edge on the outside of the door. Exterior doors also include caulk sealant on the inside to prevent water and air from seeping through.

The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.

It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.

Standard door sizes aren’t one-size-fits-all, but there are common go-to dimensions. For exterior doors—like your front door—36 inches wide by 80 inches tall is typical, though you’ll see 30- or 32-inch widths too, especially in older homes. Interior doors vary more. Bedrooms and bathrooms often use 30- to 32-inch widths, and closet doors can be anything from slim singles to wide bi-folds. Height is usually 80 inches across the board; however, always measure your actual opening. “Standard” only works if it matches what’s already in place.

No, cellar doors are not all the same size, although they are standardized. Typical sizes are 4 feet or 6 feet wide. Keep in mind that if your cellar bulkhead is very old, it’s probably not standardized. Instances like that are when steel foundation plates can come in handy to ensure your new doors will fit.
