Get matched with top door pros in Fulton, IL

Q: How much gap should you leave around a door?

• <div><p>Spacing a door is tricky since you need to leave enough of a gap for the door to move freely and not get stuck when the slab and frame contract and expand in dry and humid conditions. The ideal gap between a doorframe and slab is 1/8 of an inch. If the gap is any larger, the door will feel drafty. But if the gap is any smaller, the slab can get stuck due to weather changes. </p></div>

Q: What are some alternatives to bifold doors?

• <div><p>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&mdash;though you&rsquo;ll need to create a wall cavity to have them installed. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: How long does a fire door last?

• <div><p>You can&rsquo;t gauge the lifetime of a fire door like you could, say, an engine. Fire doors should be checked at least once every six months to ensure there are no signs of degradation like leaks, holes, water damage, termite damage, or anything else that might compromise the functionality of the door&rsquo;s fire resistance. Check your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-should-i-replace-hard-wired-smoke-detectors.htm">smoke detectors</a> while you&rsquo;re at it. </p></div>

Q: How do you install a door jammer?

• <div><p>Door jammers are designed for easy installation and portability. You can use them at home or while traveling if you&rsquo;re looking for added security. Slide the foot under the door, then turn the bolt to tighten until it is fitted to the door. Look for options with a padded, adjustable foot to fit tricky door edges and avoid damage.</p></div>

Q: Does it matter which way a door is hung?

• <div><p>Most of the time, the direction your door swings does matter. Your door&rsquo;s swing is also called its handing, and it determines how your door opens. The layout of your home probably only gives your door enough room to hang and swing in one direction. On the other hand, it might not matter if your door can open freely in either direction without inconveniencing you and your household.</p></div>

Returned my call four days after I called him, then showed up days later unannounced. My tenant was out of the house, so she did not answer the door. He never showed up again. Very bad communication skills. Would not do business again.

It was a difficult job to remove my ancient garage door opener and the inaccessible way it was installed. The installer took it in stride, removed all of the old equipment and installed the new one with little difficulty. Even helped me remote program my vehicle. Great job!

"Dave from Green Valley came right on time and was very personable. He checked out my roof and gave me some suggestions of what I should watch out for. He did not charge anything for doing this which was great! I am used to companies charging for absolutely everything they do. Very refreshing and I will definitely be calling them again when I need them. I now plan on also having them install a storm door for me too!"

David was great to work with. He and his team are professional and did a great job with the painting (I had one of the walls painted stripes). He did a great job on the entrance door which wasn?t easy to paint/refinish. He had to do multiple coats before it looked good. He put in a few extra hours to get all the painting work right.

He is zealous and focused on customer satisfaction. Quality of work is his priority. He was prompt in responding to text messages. Overall, I had a satisfying experience and will not hesitate to hire him again.
