Customers say: Quality work

"The guys at One New Creation did an excellent job fixing wood rot damage around the frame of our exterior door. They were able to take the door out, rebuild the frame, repair the damaged floor and sub-floor and re-install the door in a day and painted/finished everything the next day. Every step was clearly explained before work started and the lead contractor contacted us a couple of times to ensure that we were satisfied with the work. A very professional and competent organization overall. I would recommend them for anyone who needs work done on their home."

"They ordered the doors for me from home depot which took 3 weeks but came in damaged twice , so they didn't just install them damaged, like some other merchants have done. They were very professional and trustworthy. I'm very happy with their service."

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.

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.

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.

You want a small gap of 1/8 of an inch between the door and the jamb. However, the gap size depends on the direction the door swings and whether it contains glass. You will also want to aim for the same size gap on all sides of the door, so it opens and closes smoothly.

There are certainly perks to hiring a general contractor, but we recommend a closet professional. The reason is that their pricing may make more sense for your project. General contractors tend to search out bigger projects, and because of this, will attach a premium to smaller amounts of work. A closet pro may also have access to a wider range of materials than general contractors (and may be able to negotiate better discounts).
