"My husband and I were getting all new windows and doors in the house and adding a window in the bathroom where there was not a window to begin with. The entire process from start to finish was amazing and they made it very simple for us. I cannot believe how quickly they got the windows and doors in our house and how efficient they were. The windows look absolutely fantastic and the front door is gorgeous! I can’t believe what a difference all these windows have made in our home, I can feel the difference in temperature in our home already. Thank you so much to the entire staff of Heritage Window and Door /Renewal by Andersen. The entire team goes above and beyond to make everything perfect – Thank You So Much"
"We chose Window Concepts because they brought product samples to our home to assist us in picking out a new entry door and sidelights. I wasn't pleased with the scheduling process for installation though. They called 45 minutes after our original installation appointment time and said they wouldn't be able to make it that day. I had to wait another week and though they were a few hours late, they did show up. Despite the wait the installers did a great job and we are happy with the finished product."
"I work from home, and it is hard to think of a more non-intrusive home project experience. There were days I would go downstairs expecting to see Scott, but instead only saw the work that was already completed, The dog wouldnâ t even bark at him, and he barks at everyoneâ ¦ including me! We had two bedrooms to finish in our basement. The job required the closets, windows, ceilings and floors to be completed. Scott was able to work with some of style demands and make the rooms exactly match the finishes in the rest of the house. He also was able to come up with a beautiful cabinet solution to cover up some unsightly wiring in one of the bedrooms. The best part was all the work was finished beyond our expectations, and well within our budget."

"Glass Guru was very professional, fast, and very reasonably priced. They kept me in the loop about the progress on the repairs of my storm windows. The came to my house, uninstalled them, took them to their shop, and returned them to me just a couple of hours later. Can't say enough good things about their work. They even washed the windows after reinstalling them!"

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.
No, cellar doors are not all the same size, although they are standardized. Typical sizes are 4 feet or 6 feet wide. Keep in mind that if your cellar bulkhead is very old, it’s probably not standardized. Instances like that are when steel foundation plates can come in handy to ensure your new doors will fit.
Pocket and standard doors are similar in price, but pocket doors cost more to install than standard doors. Professionals usually charge around $150 to $200 to hang a standard door. But if you're installing a pocket door on an existing wall, you'll likely pay between $1,000 and $3,500.
While both sides of a front door should get painted for aesthetic reasons, you don’t have to do each side at the same time. As a matter of fact, you’ll probably want a different paint type and color for the interior section of the door than the exterior side. Consider each side of the door your personal canvas and make the paint match any nearby decor.
Butterfly hinges are one of the most common types of hinges and you can use them all over your home. Though they’re common on doors, cabinets, and shutters, you can even find them on decor, like jewelry boxes, music boxes, and trunks. Doors may have basic butterfly hinges, while the hinges on cabinets and decor may be more ornate.
