Q: What is the standard rough opening for a sliding glass door?

• <div><p>The most common rough opening for a sliding glass door is <b>60 inches to 72 inches by 80 inches</b>. A rough opening is the unframed space where your door will go.</p></div>

Q: Is WD-40 a good solution for squeaky door hinges?

• <div><p>WD-40 can be used on squeaky door hinges, but it is generally considered a temporary, short-term solution rather than a long-term fix. While it can silence a squeak in a pinch by breaking down rust and grime, it is not a true lubricant, as it contains only a small amount of lubricating oil that evaporates quickly. Using WD-40 alone may lead to the squeak returning and can attract dirt and dust, potentially causing more wear on the hinge over time. For a more effective and lasting solution, it is recommended to first use WD-40 to clean the hinge, then wipe it clean. Afterward, apply a dedicated lubricant such as silicone spray, white lithium grease, a metal or plastic lubricant, or an oil-based product like petroleum jelly.</p></div>

Q: Do services include security doors?

• <div><p>Yes, many providers offer reinforced steel, fire-rated, and electronic access doors for businesses.</p></div>

Q: What is the best material for a front door?

• <div><p>Doors are made from a variety of materials, including fiberglass, wood, and steel. Fiberglass is an excellent choice if you&rsquo;re looking for a durable, long-lasting, and energy-efficient option that comes in various colors, although it&rsquo;s not eco-friendly. Steel provides durability and maximum security but is not eco-friendly or energy-efficient. Wood is an energy-efficient, eco-friendly door solution, but you&rsquo;ll spend more. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a door sill, a threshold, and a kick plate?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Technicians examined my garage door and diagnosed the problems with it. They completed repairs the same evening and I had a brand new motor assembly which is quiet and working perfectly since. They do nice work.

Customers say: True professional

"Chris did an excellent job repairing three doors that needed adjusting. He realigned locks, strike plates and ensured there was a good seal when closed. He also pointed out a bare wood strip on the side of the door that was swelling in the humidity making the door stick. He planed the edge and painted it so that the swelling would no longer be an issue. He cleaned up and charged a reasonable amount for the work he did. I have already hired him to do some additional work. I highly recommend this company."
