Q: Are most internal doors the same size?

• <div><p>Most of the interior doors in your home are the same size. For example, most bedroom doors may be the same size. However, your closet doors might be the same size as each other but are a different size from the bedroom doors. You might also have bedroom closet doors that are a different size from hallway closet doors. It&rsquo;s best to be safe and measure any door you want to replace.</p></div>

Q: How do You lock a door with a fork?

• <div><p>This hack required some hand strength. First, bend the fork's tines. Next, slip the pointed ends into the door latch and close the door. Open the door to remove the fork and break off the fork's handle. Reinsert the fork's head into the door latch and close the door. Finally, slide the fork's handle through the tines, creating a horizontal barrier that prevents the door from opening inward.</p></div>

Q: Is brickmould just for doors?

• <div><p>Brickmould isn&rsquo;t just for doors. It&rsquo;s used around windows similarly to how it's used around doors. The purpose is to create protection and ward off moisture and insects that could otherwise invade the gap between the frame and the home&rsquo;s exterior. As with doors, brickmould creates a finished look on the windows and acts as a decorative element.</p></div>

Q: Are French doors more expensive than sliding doors?

• <div><p>Depending on the type of French doors you choose, they may be more expensive than sliding doors. Generally speaking, a single in-swing or out-swing French door will cost less than a sliding door, as it contains fewer materials and is easier to install. However, sliding doors usually have a slightly lower price tag, especially when compared to the standard double in-swing or double out-swing French doors.</p></div>

Q: Can you add a screen door to any door frame?

• <div><p>Yes, you can add a screen door to most door frames. The screen should be able to fit standard-size door frames, so unless you have an unusually sized door, you shouldn&rsquo;t have an issue. Just make sure to properly measure the frame. When in doubt, it&rsquo;s best to let a pro take care of this task for you so it&rsquo;s installed correctly.</p></div>

"Andrew was very knowledgeable, efficient, and timely. He showed up when he said he would and got things done professionally. He knew what he doing and did everything by himself. We had two closet doors widened and replaced with two bi-fold doors. He replaced a storm door, garage access door, and a garage window. Great job! Will call again and pass on his name."
