Q: Can you explain a prehung door?

• <div><p>A prehung door comes ready to install with the door already mounted in its frame, including hinges and stop molding. Everything is factory-aligned, which makes installation quicker and more precise. It&rsquo;s a smart option if your current frame is damaged or uneven, or if you&rsquo;re working with a new build. Instead of hanging a door slab from scratch, you fit the entire unit into the rough opening, shim it , level it, and secure it. Prehung doors are a clean, efficient way to install new doors without having to piece everything together yourself.</p></div>

Q: What wood alternatives are there for front doors?

• <div><p>Wood is by no means the only <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-front-door-options.htm">type of front door material</a> on the market. You can also choose from several other options, including:</p><ul><li><p><b>Aluminum:</b> Low-maintenance and affordable, but lacks insulation </p></li><li><p><b>Fiberglass: </b>Offers excellent insulation and durability for a decent price </p></li><li><p><b>Glass: </b>Offers beauty but less security or insulation, and a higher price tag </p></li><li><p><b>Steel: </b>One of the most economical options if you&rsquo;re looking for affordability, low maintenance, high security levels, and a door that will last</p></li><li><p><b>Wrought iron: </b>Attractive and secure, but costly and heavy </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How much does a security door cost?

• <div><p>A security door costs an average of $1,400, but costs can range from $600 for a simple screen or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-things-know-about-steel-door.htm">steel door</a> to more than $4,600 for a wrought-iron security door. You can also buy specialized locks separately for $200 to $600. If you decide to hire a pro to install your new security door, you&rsquo;ll spend around $275 to $425 on labor costs.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a mortise latch and a tubular latch?

• <div><p>The difference between a mortise latch and a tubular latch is how they're mounted. A mortise latch has a single integrated lock body. One long rectangular space is cut into the door to contain it. A single keyhole is used to unlock both the dead bolt and latch from the outside. A tubular latch is a standard setup with a dead bolt separate from the regular spring bolt latch.</p></div>

Q: Is brickmould just for doors?

• <div><p>Brickmould isn&rsquo;t just for doors. It&rsquo;s used around windows similarly to how it's used around doors. The purpose is to create protection and ward off moisture and insects that could otherwise invade the gap between the frame and the home&rsquo;s exterior. As with doors, brickmould creates a finished look on the windows and acts as a decorative element.</p></div>

I hired Guilded Touch to construct an attached deck off my front door. Right from the onset, Joel was fantastic to work with. He has a real eye for detail and didn’t look to cut any corners. Even though I had a strong vision of how I wanted the deck to look, he worked with me to improve some...

I have no idea how good they are. They have had our rugs since 10/30/24 and have not returned calls, answered emails or responded to the BBB request for information. We went to their cleaning site on 12/02/24 and left a note on the door, which as of 01/13/25 is still taped to the door. Our...

I have reason to suspect his crew was smoking pot on our property and they destroyed our home. John was never there to supervise his crew. They took out all the insulation in our crawl space and let our pipes freeze so we had to replace all of the plumbing. He cut a floor joist where they were...

The men from Claremont Glassworks did an excellent job when I had my garage doors replaced. They were on time, professional, and polite. They had both doors removed, and new ones replaced, plus two new garage door openers installed, in only a couple of hours. Great doing business with them
