Q: What type of patio door is most secure?

• <div><p>Generally, hinged French patio doors are considered more secure than sliding glass doors. French doors typically feature a more robust, solid frame that can support multi-point locking systems and deadbolts, securing the door at several points and making them harder to break into. In contrast, sliding doors often rely on a single lock and operate on tracks, which can be a security vulnerability. While you can add security bars and other features to enhance a sliding door's security, a well-made French door is often more secure on its own. Ultimately, the overall security of any patio door depends on the quality of its materials, the locking hardware, and proper installation.</p></div>

Q: What is the most common interior door hinge?

• <div><p>Butt hinges are the most common of all door hinges. They&rsquo;re frequently used in commercial and residential structures, secure interior and exterior doors, and can be used on cabinetry. They&rsquo;re inexpensive, simple to install, easy to remove, and available in various materials and styles. They come with two leaves with a knuckle or barrel in the middle. </p></div>

Q: Are pet doors safe?

• <div><p>High-tech solutions and strategic placement can help ensure the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-pet-door-pose-security-risk.htm">safety of your pet door</a>. Pet doors can pose security risks, as well as the risk of stray or wild animals entering your home, but modern pet doors offer options like collar-based sensors to ensure doors will only open for your pet, and installing a pet door in an out-of-sight location or in a wall rather than a door can help to avoid intruders using the door to gain access to your home.</p></div>

Q: Do doors have to be the exact size?

• <div><p>Yes, if you&rsquo;re replacing a door slab, it must be the exact size of your existing door. If your new door is too small, you&rsquo;ll need to purchase a new door to fit or hire a handyperson to make your frame smaller. Or if it's too big, you&rsquo;ll need to return it or shave it down to fit.</p></div>

Q: Is WD-40 effective for fixing squeaky door hinges?

• <div><p>WD-40 can temporarily silence a squeaky door hinge, but it is not recommended as a long-term solution. While it is effective at breaking down rust and grime, it contains very little lubricant and evaporates quickly. Using WD-40 can also attract dirt and dust to the hinges, which may cause more wear and tear over time. For a more lasting fix, after cleaning the hinge, apply a true lubricant. Better options include silicone spray, white lithium grease, metal or plastic lubricants, or oil-based products like petroleum jelly.</p></div>

Resonant thinned out the trees in the woods and planted new trees and bushes around our house. They are in the process of putting in pavers to our front door with a great eye for design. Enjoyable to work with as we discuss ideas and see them brought to completion. We highly recommend them.

"We hired Mike to work on some of our ceilings - he removed tiled squares and put in drywall, smoothed out an old plaster ceiling and did patch work on another. We felt that he was honest, reasonable and personable! The thing we liked most about Mike was that he provided his insight, but was still willing to try the project we had in mind even though there were many unknowns. Our project did not work out as we did encounter some structural limitations - he kindly backtracked and finish off the work with clean smooth results. Lastly Mike was easy to work with, good communication and flexible scheduling! We would definitely consider him for other projects around the home."
