26 Had them do two jobs in the past 2 months. Excellent on both. Installed a smart door lock and fixed a nuisance screen door in one trip, later came back and installed new drainage pipe. Always available, very flexible, and patient. And of course the work is top-notch.
Ed always provides quality services. We always call him for all of our painting/drywall repair needs. This is the 4th time we have contracted him. He visited the site to ask the nature of the work. He provided a written estimate for the job. After giving a down payment, Ed purchased all...
He was very punctual, professional, and personal. We would highly recommend him for service for your system (security). He was very detailed on usage of the system.

"I hired this group after my dad passed away to clear his old camp trailer from the property it sat on and have had the worst experience. The contracted job is not done though the group has cashed my check in addition to taking anything valuable out of the structure before being torn down and hauled away as part of the deal. To date, one year later the structure still stands with very little work done. I have been given excuse after excuse but nothing has moved forward. I am now left with having to spend even more money on a new company I have to contact to complete the job as there was a deadline for when this needed to be removed. No one from this company, including owner Herb has responded to my recent calls, texts or emails. I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND this company to anyone."

Since its inception by co founders William Barr and Michael Strmac in 2002, Universal Windows Direct has lived by the philosophy of CANEI - "Constant and Never Ending Improvement". This philosophy holds true in all aspects of our business, from sales and marketing to installation and service and has catapulted UWD from a small, local home improvement company to one of the largest exterior remodeling companies in the country. Every one of our employees strives continuously to be the best in the business at what they do and provide our customers with only the highest levels of sales, service, and support. We think our company's history speaks to this goal and to the power of what we can accomplish by never settling. Universal Windows Direct of Pittsburgh opened in 2019. Our products feature the exclusive UniShield brand and come with a transferable lifetime warranty on materials and labor. We are a fully licensed, bonded, and insured company and EPA Lead-Safe certified. In addition, a portion of every sale goes to support a growing list of local charities.
"*posting so you can make informed decisions as a consumer In January of 2022 we purchased full house windows and doors from Universal Windows Direct. It took 10 months, but they were finally installed in November of 2022 by a sub-contractor from out of state. These videos were taken after a large summer storm in early July 2023. Their warrenty specialist visited the home thinking that they needed to simply repair these two… however, he found that EVERY SINGLE WINDOW WAS INSTALLED INCORRECTLY. None of them were properly sealed or wrapped from the outside, meaning that water (and consequential mold) was building up in the walls for 7 months before breaking down a these windows’ internal seals. We’ve also come to learn that electrical hazards were imminent, specifically in our toddlers room (video 2). Every wall, floor, and ceiling of the beautiful home we had built ended up needing to be ripped apart because a national window company improperly installed our windows. The total cost of damages and repairs ended up surpassing $300,000 and our family of 2 adults, a toddler, and an infant were displaced from our home for 9 months. Mitigation and restoration was completed in February of 2024 and UWD was cooperative with that matter. However, customer service and management/operations at Universal Windows Direct were abysmal to work with. I post simple statements and share our consumer experience so that others, as potential consumers, can understand to make informed decisions. I urge you: know your rights as a consumer, read your contracts thoroughly, read as many reviews as possible on sites like neighborhood group pages, Angies List, Google, Yelp, and the Better Business Bureau. PLEASE don’t end up in a situation like we did, having our lives uprooted and our mental health imploded."

The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits. Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150
Smart home lighting: $15–$90
Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100
Smart thermostat: $130–$500
Door installation usually takes three and four hours, including removing the old door and frame, fitting the new door and frame in place, shimming it to make sure it’s perfectly level, and making adjustments to the hinges and locking mechanisms to ensure proper functionality. A door-hanging professional can replace an interior door in between one and two hours. Door installation will take significantly longer if your installer needs to create a wall opening, and it can take less time if the existing door frame remains.
The average cost to install a door is around $1,100, but you could pay anywhere from $150 for a hollow-core interior door installation up to $2,000 or a high-end exterior door installation. There are a few cost factors to consider to get an accurate price, including whether your wall opening exists, the type of door, the quality and security of the door, whether you need to replace the frame, and the door size. You can expect to pay $150 to $700 for a standard 36-by-80-inch door and between $400 and $1,600 for an 80-by-48-inch door.
Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.
It’s possible to install a door yourself if the wall opening already exists, but the work is rather complicated, and a professional installation is usually well worth the investment. For your door to work and close properly, you’ll need to shim and level the door frame in your wall perfectly, which can be difficult. Additionally, we recommend you always hire a professional door installer to place an exterior door, as mistakes during the installation process can lead to poor security for your home.
