Q: How long do doors last?

• <div><p>The lifespan of your door depends on the door type, its wear and tear, and the weather conditions in your area. For instance, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-will-your-front-door-last.htm">front doors last</a> between<b> 20 and 60 years</b>, depending on the material. Garage doors, on the other hand, last between <b>15 and 30 years</b>. Interior doors don&rsquo;t get hit with the elements and can last between <b>20 and 50 years,</b> if not more. </p></div>

Q: How often should you rekey your house?

• <div><p>You should rekey your house every three years to minimize the chances of someone gaining access to your home. You can do it more than that, but it depends on the level of foot traffic and visitors you get. Businesses, for instance, routinely rekey their locks every six months to a year. If you experience a break-in or a house key has gone missing, rekey the locks immediately. The same goes if your lock becomes damaged. </p></div>

Q: Should a gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.</p><p>There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.</p></div>

Q: Do pocket doors increase home value?

• <div><p>While a pocket door can be a smart decision to add privacy in a small space, it most likely won&rsquo;t increase home value. Pocket doors can sometimes be difficult to maintain, and they can pose a challenge to those with mobility issues. But generally speaking, adding an interior door where privacy is needed will be a benefit to homebuyers.</p></div>

Q: Where do you use butterfly hinges?

• <div><p>Butterfly hinges are one of the most common types of hinges and you can use them all over your home. Though they&rsquo;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.</p></div>
