Q: What is the weakest part of the door?

• <div><p>The strike plate, hinges, and handle are the parts of a door most prone to damage. These parts see the most frequent use, causing them to wear and twear faster than other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/parts-of-a-door.htm">parts of a door</a>. If you&rsquo;re experiencing door issues, check these three parts first to see if they need repairing or replacing. </p></div>

Q: Should residential exterior doors swing in or out?

• <div><p>Residential exterior doors should swing inward. While this cuts into your living space and prevents you from putting furniture near the inside of your door, it also means that the hinges will only be accessible from the interior. Hinges that sit on the outside of your home leave your property far less secure, as someone looking to get in could simply unscrew them and remove your door. Additionally, inswing exterior doors will be operable even if you have snow or other obstructions outside.</p></div>

Q: Can I make my home more accessible myself?

• <div><p>Minor modifications like grab bars and threshold ramps can be DIY, but professional services ensure compliance with ADA standards and structural safety.</p></div>

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: How much room is needed for a pocket door?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re installing a pocket door into an existing door opening, the new space will need to be twice the width of the existing door, plus an inch. You'll need to double that number if you&rsquo;re adding dual pocket doors.</p></div>
