Q: Do bifold doors need servicing?

• <div><p>Yes, it is essential that you perform bi-annual maintenance on your bifold doors. This means checking the hardware, cleaning the door and the tracks, and lubricating the locks. Most of this work can be done on your own, but if you wish for a more thorough inspection, you should call in a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/door-repair/">professional door repair company</a>.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a door frame and casing?

• <div><p>A door frame is not the same as a door casing. A door frame is the framework surrounding the entire door that supports the area from which the door hangs. The frame is made up of multiple parts, including the door jamb, head, and sill.</p><p>Casing refers to the trim work located around the door frame. It connects the door frame to the wall with decorative trim.</p></div>

Q: Do I put hinges on the door or frame first?

• <div><p>You can attach the hinges to either the door or the frame first, depending on your preference. The order will not affect how the door hangs or the ease of installation. However, we recommend starting with the top hinge over the bottom one for stability, as it&rsquo;s much easier to support the door from below while you install the top hinge. It will also be easier to pull the door outward from the hinges as it hangs from the top than it would be to push the door toward the hinges, as there&rsquo;s less clearance on the lock side.</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: Can any door be used as a pocket door?

• <div><p>Not every door can be converted into a pocket door. Pocket doors require specific hardware and a hollow space within the wall to slide into when open. The door must be sturdy enough to handle the sliding mechanism but not too heavy, as excessive weight can cause operation and track alignment issues. While some standard interior doors can be adapted for use as pocket doors with the right hardware, it's essential to ensure the door's compatibility and the structural feasibility of creating a pocket in the wall.</p></div>

"These guys did excellent work! I had 3 over 100 year old exterior doors rehung with new hardware, lock sets, threshold, and weather stripping. The doors were drafty, and I could hardly get them closed. Now they are right and tight. They close easily and no more drafts! Thanks HD finished carpentry!"
