"Carlos and his crew were awesome to work with. We had some confusion with the purchase of the door, but it was client based…we weren’t sure what we needed and purchased the wrong door. They went above and beyond to make sure we got what we needed and worked extra time to get everything done right!"

"A group came Thursday. Did the job. I complained and another group came right away on Friday. The 2nd group redid everything the 1st group did. They did what I asked. Nice finishing and made the French bi-fold doors fit nicely. There is a question about the screws matching as they don't and are visible to the eye. The moldings around the door are excellent much to my satisfaction. One door opens a closes perfectly. The other does not but does work. All of the men that I dealt with treated me with the utmost respect."

"These young men did a fantastic job on my bed and dresser. Helped me clean up and carry boxes up and down stairs, it was very helpful to me. I’ll definitely be saving their number and would recommend them to others who have assembly projects and need handyman services."

Doors questions, answered by experts

A butterfly hinge—also known as a surface mount hinge or dovetail hinge—is exactly what it sounds like: a hinge that resembles a butterfly. This type of decorative hinge, which is mounted on the surface of a door or cabinet, consists of two panels. One panel is mounted on a stable surface like a door frame and the other is mounted on the surface you need to open. It hinges open and closed like the wings of a butterfly.

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.

Like many common door problems, warping can be caused by improper installation. When a door isn't installed correctly, there's a good chance that the poor seal is allowing moisture and drafts to seep through. When this happens, humidity will build up in the wood until it swells and warps.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
