"Recently we hired Ardmore to replace the glass in 2 of our skylights and install a new storm door. Other than rain delays the skylights were installed in less than 2 hours as Ardmore sent 2 crews for the installation. They even came inside to vacuum any debris that might have fallen into the house during the installation. (5 out of 5). The installation of the storm doors was different. It took over 10 hours for 2 men to finish the installation which I felt was excessive and felt they didn't do the installation correctly. The difference between a good company and a better company is how well they fix a problem and to this point they are doing a better job. When I called to complain the scheduler immediately suggested they send out someone to inspect the work and within 3 days someone came out and fixed 2 out of the 3 problems and said someone would be calling me and ordering a replacement part to fix the 3rd problem"

"Alex and his assistant brought life back to 40+ year old Pella doors. Saved us $4000+ instead of installing new. Lived too long with screeching stubborn doors. Very pleased! Now they just glide! Beyond our expectations!!! Thank you so much for the excellence service. Glad to leave an A+ feedback."

"We are happy with the end result. We know it was Opal's busy season but we hoped to get the door a little sooner. Although it was time consuming to have someone come to our home and measure twice, it was better in the end because our door was not a standard size as we had thought.We ended up needing a custom size door.  We had some problems but they were willing to listen to our feelings on some possible miscommunications. Everyone at Opal was very polite. On the day of the install,the crew was prompt,polite and cleaned up nicely.

"Andrew did a great job in removing and installing three interior door frames, doors and casing. He explained everything that he was going to be doing pre job start and answered my questions along the way. When he was finished the installed doors/frames and casings looked great and he cleaned the work areas very well. I would recommend him highly for quotes and work"

"I was happy to find a local company who could replace the ropes in 2 of my windows. They also replaced a broken pane in one of my "French doors". They'll come later this year for 3 other things I need done -- replacing 2 basement windows and a screen door."

"Radek of RF Improvements did an absolutely beautiful job painting 6 interior rooms for us, including walls, doors, ceiling and trim. He is very knowledgeable about different types of paints and finishes, making excellent recommendations. He was always prompt and very efficient with his time, and worked through the holidays with a very flexible schedule to accommodate our needs. The cost was exactly as estimated, and highly competitive. I would highly recommend Radek and RF Improvements for any home painting needs!"

Doors questions, answered by experts

There are a few different reasons why shotgun houses have two separate front doors. Shotgun homes with two front doors are also called double shotgun homes, which can be two individual homes that share a wall. Other reasons include improved ventilation throughout the home and better access to other rooms.

If a wooden door swells from temporary humidity or moisture, it should return to its original size as the environment dries out. However, if the door remains swollen due to prolonged exposure to moisture or water damage, it may not fully revert to its original shape and could require repairs or replacement. Using a dehumidifier and ensuring your doorway has good ventilation can help prevent and reduce swelling in wooden doors.

You can convert a pre-hung door into a Dutch door, but it’s more of a pain. Pre-hung doors are already set in the frame with the hinges and everything aligned, so once you cut the slab in half, you’ll likely need to adjust the hinge placement and maybe even mess with the frame itself. It’s doable, but expect some trial and error because it’s not a straight-swap situation.

Wood is more susceptible to damage than metal, and a wood door can benefit from upgraded locks, screws, and strike plates. Additional features like security doors, latch keys, and deadbolts are also a plus. Installing a comprehensive security system will also boost your home’s protection and make you feel safer.

Sometimes, these two terms are used interchangeably, but they are separate parts of a door, and each serves a different function. The sill helps ensure the doorframe is secure, and the threshold helps protect the sill and direct water away from the door to prevent leaks.
