Q: Will converting my door to a Dutch door affect security?

• <div><p>It can affect security, especially if you don&rsquo;t finish it properly. A Dutch door has more moving parts that can be compromised, so you&rsquo;ll want to use solid hardware and make sure everything lines up and locks cleanly. If the latch is flimsy or the two halves don&rsquo;t sit tight, it&rsquo;s going to be easier to force open.</p></div>

Q: Can you sand down a door to fit?

• <div><p>You can open up more space between the door and the floor by sanding the bottom of the door, but it will take longer compared to using a hand planer. However, you could use a belt sander, which some believe is even better than a hand planer for planing a door. Also, it could leave a smoother finish on the bottom of the door.</p></div>

Q: Is planing a door easy?

• <div><p>The job is relatively simple, but it does require some skill. When planing a door, you run the risk of splintering it if you don't do it correctly. You&rsquo;ll need to remove the door from the hinges in order to properly plane it, and removing and rehanging a door can be a two-person job. While planing a door is a straightforward repair, you&rsquo;ll want to ensure it&rsquo;s done right to avoid damaging your door.</p></div>

Q: Do services include security door repairs?

• <div><p>Yes, many professional services handle high-security and fire-rated door repairs, ensuring compliance with building codes.</p></div>

Q: How does a door professional prevent future leaks from happening?

• <div><p>Fixing the leaky door frame will require caulking, new weather stripping, or a complete installation of a new door. Even more important is making sure the door is protected from the elements by an awning, entry roof, or roof overhang. This small detail ensures that even a poorly weather-stripped door will fare well in precipitation, except for the rare occasion when strong wind gusts drive rain and snow horizontally. </p></div>

The installers were courteous and great to work with. We had over 30 windows installed, which obviously took some time. It was obvious towards the end that they were getting pressure from the top to get done. There were some issues with our new patio door that did not get completed correctly....
