"Dave arrived just as he promised and my door was installed in short time. I'm extremely satisfied with the door that Dave suggested I buy and very satisfied with the job that he did. He left his contact information in case I have any problems but I don't have any trepidation about the door being well installed."

Customers say: Quality work

"We chose Window Concepts because they brought product samples to our home to assist us in picking out a new entry door and sidelights. I wasn't pleased with the scheduling process for installation though. They called 45 minutes after our original installation appointment time and said they wouldn't be able to make it that day. I had to wait another week and though they were a few hours late, they did show up. Despite the wait the installers did a great job and we are happy with the finished product."

Doors questions, answered by experts

On average, the cost to install or replace bifold doors ranges from $100 to $300, making them one of the most inexpensive interior door options. The final price depends on several factors, including the door's material and design, with hollow core and solid core doors being on the lower end of the cost spectrum. A local door installer will likely charge between $40 and $90 per hour. While a skilled DIYer may be able to install bifold doors, as most come with the necessary hardware, the doors can be heavy, and improper installation can lead to misalignment issues.

Outswing doors are more popular for exterior doors as they offer more room for moving items in and out of a home. And because the hinges are on the outside of the door, they’re more secure against potential break-ins. But, outswing doors are more susceptible to the elements and are more expensive. Comparing inswing vs. outswing doors depends on your budget, needs, and overall preference.

You want plenty of room between your pre-hung door and the framing in your wall to allow for shimming to get the door into the perfect position, so aim for about 1 inch on the top and both sides. That means you should make your rough opening about 1 inch taller and 2 inches wider than your pre-hung door. You’ll then use shims to stabilize and level the door before installing it.

Most modern, standard doors are 1 ⅜-inches thick, so you should aim for this thickness unless you're building a door to replace an antique door or fit into a non-standard wall opening. Thickness varies when installing a pocket door or sliding barn door, so a good rule of thumb is to measure your existing door, if possible. For standard doors, you can also measure from the inside of the door to the door stop to gauge the proper thickness.

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.
