"After interviewing various contractors, I went with STL Design and Build as I felt they would provide excellent customer service. I was not disappointed. Not only did they do fantastic work, but I was also met with polite and professional workers and was given invaluable advice as to what would work best in our home. STL Design and Build did our kitchen remodel, replaced the flooring in our family room with beautiful hardwood, and created an additional laundry room for us on our second floor. I am ecstatic with the results. The next project they will be doing for us is the bathroom in the master bedroom. I know we will be in good hands :)"

Doors questions, answered by experts

Proper installation ensures solid hinges and locks, maintaining home security.

While not strictly required, it is highly recommended to shim both sides of a door. Shimming both sides allows you to make minor adjustments for wall framing that isn't perfectly plumb, ensuring the door is level and hangs evenly. This practice helps the door swing open and close smoothly, reduces the chances of the frame warping, and can be used to center the door within the wall opening. If you are working alone, you may find it easier to remove the door slab to lighten the weight while supporting the frame and inserting the shims. With two people, the process is generally faster and easier, whether the slab is left in place or not.

The lock block will either be built-in on the side of the door or run from the top to the bottom. Usually, there is a marking that indicates its location. You can also tap the door with the back of a screwdriver to find the lock block like you would find a stud in a wall.

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’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 cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
