Q: Does it matter which way door hinges are installed?

• <div><p>Begin by determining which way you want the door to swing based on the layout of your room. Traditionally, left-handed doors have a doorknob closest to your left hand, and right-handed doors include a doorknob closest to your right. Right-handed doors with left hinges swing inward and vice versa. This can vary based on the layout of your home, though.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of a steel door?

• <div><p>Steel doors last 30 to 100 years, making them among the most durable and longest-lasting doors on the market. However, they will likely get dented and scratched during that time, and if the paint peels, they can show signs of rusting.</p></div>

Q: What is the strongest type of door hinge?

• <div><p>Continuous hinges are some of the sturdiest hinges available, which makes sense, given that they provide support along the entire side of the door. These hinges are often used for heavy commercial doors, but are impractically expensive and unnecessary for residential use. Among the hinges commonly used in homes, the ball-bearing hinge is the strongest, and it reduces friction to help heavy doors open more smoothly. </p></div>

Q: Where do you put shims on a door frame?

• <div><p>You put shims between the three-sided frame to which the door hinges are attached and the framing of the rough wall opening. Using shims like this will center your door in the wall opening and allows you to make small adjustments to get your door plumb and level for smooth operation. Your shims and the gap they fill will be covered when you <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-trim-doorway.htm">install door trim</a>, so don&rsquo;t worry too much about the appearance.</p></div>

Q: How many hinges should a screen door have?

• <div><p>A screen door needs at least two hinges, though most have three or four hinges. The amount of hinges depends on the weight and size of the door. The heavier your door, the more hinges it will need for support. Exterior doors, which are sturdier than interior doors, have the most hinges.</p></div>

Professional, timely and best installers we’ve had. Our installers took to time to get everything fit right. They had their hands full with a few doors and windows, due to bad framing from our construction contractor. Our new doors and windows work flawlessly now.

Fantastic job. I called on Monday and they were able to be here on Wednesday (even came the day before the holiday!). Work was thorough and very professional. When I bought the house, I didn't get remotes. He fixed the problem I called about, had remotes on the truck that he got working for me...
