"My front door has been wrong since we moved here two years ago. Now it closes and locks properly. And I loved that he didn’t try to talk us into getting a new door."

"I had an old external door that was broken. Bob replaced the door and did a great job around the broken concrete and dry wall. It was a small project but it went really well. I am happy with the new door."

"I had a great experience with HORIZON HOME IMPROVEMENTS. They repaired an issue with my door that wasn?t closing properly. Aleksandr was very responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with. The technician arrived on time, quickly figured out the problem, and made the necessary repairs. The door works perfectly now, and everything was left clean afterward. The pricing was fair, and the whole process was smooth. I would definitely recommend them for any home repairs!"

"Mr. Phalan took care of a tricky repair to an old style solid wood exterior door on a 2nd floor deck. The door was quite heavy and had several glass panels in it, too. Bob quickly rebuilt the busted hinge and had the old door working “better than new”, in about 30 minutes. Quick and clean job!"

"They did a fantastic job. I had to replace the glass on 3 patio doors where the seal had broken. They answered the phone on the first call, came out for an estimate within a couple days and completed the job on-time. I thought I was going to have to replace both entire patio doors, but they said the glass was in stock and could be done in a week. The doors look fantastic. Would definitely use them again."

Doors questions, answered by experts

The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.

It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

You can install many types of interior doors without a frame as long as the door is prehung or there is already an existing door in the opening. If the opening has never had a door installed, you will need to install a frame with the door. Consult a professional door installer to inspect the opening to determine whether or not it’s possible to place a door there without a frame.

Steel doors last the longest, sometimes upwards of 100 years. Fiberglass comes in second, with a lifespan of 70 years. Wood doors have the lowest lifespan, with some wood types only last 20 to 40 years.

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.
