Q: What is the difference between a sliding door and a pocket door?

• <div><p>Sliding doors and pocket doors are both great space savers, but they work a bit differently. A sliding door moves along a track and is always visible, sliding next to a wall or another door. On the other hand, a pocket door slides into a slot in the wall, hiding away completely when it's open. This makes pocket doors a perfect choice if you're looking to maximize every inch of floor space, unlike sliding doors that can still take up some room even when they're open.</p></div>

Q: Should a door frame be nailed or screwed?

• <div><p>When hanging a door frame, it&rsquo;s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/install-interior-door">cost to replace a door frame</a> is about <b>$400</b>, but you can save on labor costs if you&rsquo;re confident in your ability to DIY the project. </p></div>

Q: Can pros improve the energy efficiency of sliding doors?

• <div><p>Yes, they can enhance insulation by installing weather stripping and ensuring tight seals.</p></div>

Q: What is the best wood for doors?

• <div><p>You can use any wood to make an interior door, provided it&rsquo;s the right thickness. Common options for painted doors include pine or poplar for the stiles, rails, and mullions, and paint-grade plywood for the panels. You can also opt to make your own panels out of pine or poplar if you intend on staining the door instead. Opting for oak, maple, or another hardwood is another great option for a high-end door that will last for decades, but the wood will cost significantly more.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth replacing a patio door?

• <div><p>If your patio door is worn and outdated, replacing it could be well worth the money&mdash;especially if you plan to sell your home anytime soon. An updated patio door will catch the eye of potential buyers, while a dingy one with peeling paint will likely be off-putting. A new patio door can also improve your home&rsquo;s security, lower energy costs, and decrease the noise from outside. Ultimately, your choice will come down to the current state of your patio door and your replacement budget.</p></div>
