Q: What should I do if my door is out of stock?

• <div><p>If your specific sliding glass door model is out of stock or no longer being built, it may still be best to contact the original manufacturer or installer. They can suggest a comparable replacement that is similar in size, avoiding more expensive repairs to retrofit a new door to an older opening. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a slab door and a prehung door, and which is better to install?

• <div><p>A slab door is a standalone door without a frame or hardware. A prehung door is a complete set that includes the door, frame, hinges, and sometimes the doorknob and lockset.</p><p>In most cases, a prehung door is the better and easier option to install, especially for DIY projects or exterior applications, as they often come pre-weatherproofed. They require fewer tools and less experience to install properly. Although prehung doors are heavier and have a higher upfront cost, the investment is often worthwhile for a complete upgrade that includes a new frame.</p><p>A slab door may be a better choice if you are on a tight budget, have a custom-sized wall opening, or only need to replace the door while keeping the existing frame. While the initial cost is lower, you will need to purchase all the hardware separately and do more DIY work to hang it, which may not result in significant time or money savings.</p></div>

Q: Why would you want an outswing door?

• <div><p>Outswing doors are more popular for exterior doors as they offer more room for moving items in and out of a home. And because the hinges are on the outside of the door, they&rsquo;re more secure against potential break-ins. But, outswing doors are more susceptible to the elements and are more expensive. Comparing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/inswing-vs-outswing-door.htm">inswing vs. outswing doors</a> depends on your budget, needs, and overall preference.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to leave a doggy door open?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not safe to leave a doggy door open. It might be more convenient, especially at night when you just want to lay in bed. However, when you leave it open, it increases the chance of other critters getting in without your knowledge. Also, it leaves your pup unsupervised for hours at a time. </p></div>

Q: How much gap should you leave around a door?

• <div><p>Spacing a door is tricky since you need to leave enough of a gap for the door to move freely and not get stuck when the slab and frame contract and expand in dry and humid conditions. The ideal gap between a doorframe and slab is 1/8 of an inch. If the gap is any larger, the door will feel drafty. But if the gap is any smaller, the slab can get stuck due to weather changes. </p></div>

"We all learned that for an older home (25-30 years), it is best to purchase pre-hung doors, even though the labor to install them may cost you more. Having to cut the doors to fit was a job; the doors don't fit as well as they could have. James appeared to be very frustrated, working an extra day to finish the job. Extremely friendly and courteous."
