"Scott was wonderful and we are so happy that we found him! He was very punctual, neat, reliable, and communicative. He did great work and we are so pleased with the results of each project that he did for us. He takes pride in his work and his craftsmanship is excellent. He is very skilled and professional. We had him add on French doors to our home office and they look so seamless that you can't tell that they were added on. He also helped us in the kitchen by installing a fume hood that can vent outside as well as a decorative cabinet surround. He showed up on time each day, put down covers to protect our floors or counters, and cleaned up before leaving each day. We would highly recommend Scott and we will definitely reach out to him for any future projects."

"Received three quotes to replace an exterior kitchen door. Loweâ s at $3k plus cost of door, HomeDepot $7500 plus door, and Cransten $600 plus cost of door. I purchased an off the shelf door for $450 and Cransten did a terrific job installing. Installer Bradley Evans provided excellent communication and a pro install job. I will hire Cransten again."

"Chad and Randy were the very best, Honest and knew what they were doing. Saved me a bundle of money by putting new decorated glass in my door and repairing to make my door look like new. I thought I would have to buy and install a new door. Chad said you don't have to spend all that money we can fix this door and it will look like new. God smiled down on me when I meet Chad. I would recommend them highly."

"If you need a handyman or contracting in general, call Sal. He and his crew are amazing. We had a lot of different type of work to do and we needed a company we can rely on for all. From the beginning, I could tell we were in great hands. We did demo, reconstruction, door replacement, plumbing and more. Sal was fair with pricing and held to all of his commitments. As with any renovations, we ran into a few pre-existing items that weren't immediately visible and not only did Sal not flinch, he was reasonable with pricing / timing. If you need something done and you need someone you trust, Sal is your person."

"Kip did an awesome job on my driveway about 5 years ago and still looks brand new. Also brought him in recently when he was in town to look at my garage door which was getting stuck when opening. He was quick and efficient and cost half the price compared to the manufacturer service provider. He's also very available via phone for any questions or troubleshooting concerns. With his knowledge and old school customer service skills, I highly recommend him as a handyman for any home project!"

Doors questions, answered by experts

While doggie doors are convenient for pet owners, they do offer a few drawbacks. For instance, they’re small enough that unwanted critters could come into the house, such as raccoons, snakes, rats, and insects.

They’re also large enough that small children can escape through them, which can be a serious concern to parents of young children.

Finally, doggie doors can make it difficult to regulate your home’s temperature because they constantly let in hot or cold outside air.

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

No, exterior doors don’t need to be prehung, although choosing a door that is prehung makes the installation process far easier. Installing an exterior door that isn’t prehung requires carefully maneuvering the heavy door into place in your door frame, making sure it’s level and plumb on all sides, and then attaching the hinges so that they’re perfectly level and are affixed to the right part of your frame and door. Prehung exterior doors are far more DIY-friendly.

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.

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.

It’s possible to install a door yourself if the wall opening already exists, but the work is rather complicated, and a professional installation is usually well worth the investment. For your door to work and close properly, you’ll need to shim and level the door frame in your wall perfectly, which can be difficult. Additionally, we recommend you always hire a professional door installer to place an exterior door, as mistakes during the installation process can lead to poor security for your home.
