"Universal Windows Direct of Manchester provided not only prompt, professional, and preferred service, they also provided a peace of mind for the service they provided. The owner personally visited my home and suggested several suggestions to address my concerns. Never was I pressured, pursued, or offered a product which I had not asked. Universal Windows Direct offered me the security that I knew that this was a company of integrity and honesty. So much so, that when the work was done, I was not home. Unbelievable! And, when I returned home from work on the day of my new window installation, all I could see was the view from my new window...windex'd cleaned, with no evidence that they has ever been in my house. Universal Windows Direct of Manchester treated my home- as their home, with respect and responsibility. They not only met my concerns, they under promised and very much over delivered. Would I use them again...you bet, in a flash! Thank you Universal Windows Direct of Manchester. Doug Robinson, Derry, NH 03038"
"Hitec windows was the best value compared to all the other companies we had come. We had 12 double hung windows, 2 storm doors, 1 exterior door and 1 slider. They did it all in 2 days with not one problem. They were very neat and organized. I would highly recommend this company for all your window and door needs. The windows and doors are beautiful and we are very glad we had HiTec Window do the installation."
"Kevin was great, he was very responsive on a Saturday and came to hang a new door for me the next day. The installation was more complicated than I originally anticipated. The hinges, deadbolt and door knob did not align with the existing cut outs. Kevin did a great job making the door look like it was pre-hung on the existing frame."
"They did the deck build a week earlier than planned which was great! The crew was excellent and friendly-hardworking. I recommend this company highly!"
"Alex and vos crew, were really helpful with choosing color and types of tile. He was really knowledgeable about materials and waterproofing systems. That made me feel so reassure about the quality of the work."
"Conlan and his crew did a great job! He was onboard and helpful with changes I wanted to make during the building process. He was very professional and work was completed in a timely manner…they even worked in the rain. They cleaned up every bit of debris from the job and left me with a beautiful new deck ready to use. Good quality work is hard to come by these days at an affordable price, but there was no price gouging from his company. I highly recommend Shoreline and would use them again!"
"Absolutely THRILLED with the work. Quick quote, products exactly what I needed including special order of slider with built in blinds and a custom dog door on the other door. As promised regarding date, amount of time and money. They did a BEAUTIFUL job including some extra finish work and cleaned up when done. I cannot say enough good about this. HIGHLY recommended. I am DEFINITELY calling J A Longden Construction for more projects going forward. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!"
Plenty of building codes dictate what you must install in your home, but door sweeps are optional. However, they're a low-cost addition with many advantages. So, installing a sweep on all your exterior doors is in your best interest. You'll save money in the long run and stay more comfortable year-round.
Door jammers are designed for easy installation and portability. You can use them at home or while traveling if you’re looking for added security. Slide the foot under the door, then turn the bolt to tighten until it is fitted to the door. Look for options with a padded, adjustable foot to fit tricky door edges and avoid damage.
A door sill is the bottom portion of your door frame, while a threshold is the transition piece that separates the two types of flooring between rooms, or serves as the transition between the interior and exterior on an exterior door. The threshold sits on top of the door sill. A kick plate is a protective plate that sits against the face of a door to prevent damage to the door from feet and shoes. You’ll usually only find kick plates on exterior doors, while every door has a door sill, and most exterior and interior doors have a threshold.
The most common rough opening for a sliding glass door is 60 inches to 72 inches by 80 inches. A rough opening is the unframed space where your door will go.
Installing a dog door into an existing door is a quicker, easier project than installing one in a wall. Installing a pet door into a wall requires cutting through your home’s drywall, ensuring no pipes or wires are cut, and sealing the new opening so as not to compromise the safety and stability of your home’s walls, all of which may be a bigger project than many homeowners are looking to undertake.
