"Daniel came right over and fixed our problem. He was friendly and knowledgeable and had the door replaced in less than an hour. We are so happy to know him and plan on calling him again and will recommend him to our family and friends."

"I have had a lot of work done by different contractors and I have never been so pleased by the unusual professionalism and craftsmanship shown by Javier Franco and his father Mr. Franco and his uncle Juanito. They transformed my tiny little garage into a modern garage that’s functional and reframed the door with an impact door. Their work ethic is incredibly unusual— they do everything above board. They got all permits, engineering, etc. They redid the entire ceiling. The project was immense. They installed two new attic ladders. They remodeled my master bathroom because the shower was leaking. They are truly the epitome of a great classic carpenter and builder. These gentlemen explain every detail and ensure the project is done thoroughly and on time and on budget. They don’t cut corners. Anything I requested— they did. And they were glad to do anything I asked. They didn’t rush any work. Everything was cleaned every day. And I had long, long lists! And I’m extremely picky. Every little crack— they caulked. They also clearly enjoy their work. They want to make sure your home is functional and beautiful. They offer design suggestions and their experience shows. They can fix problems as things come up. Nothing ever ruffled these guys. They showed up on time every day for about 6 weeks— it was impressive! They’re not just nice people— (and yes— they are—my dog just adores them!)— but— they actually present you with perfection and so that’s what you can expect from them. I can’t wait until they do my kitchen!"

Doors questions, answered by experts

You want a small gap of 1/8 of an inch between the door and the jamb. However, the gap size depends on the direction the door swings and whether it contains glass. You will also want to aim for the same size gap on all sides of the door, so it opens and closes smoothly.

Begin by determining which way you want the door to swing based on the layout of your room. Traditionally, left-handed doors have a doorknob closest to your left hand, and right-handed doors include a doorknob closest to your right. Right-handed doors with left hinges swing inward and vice versa. This can vary based on the layout of your home, though.

An interior French door should last you anywhere between 30 and 50 years, while an exterior French door unit will last around 15 to 30 years on average. Exactly how long your French doors last depends on the quality of the materials you choose, with vinyl doors lasting far less time than fiberglass, metal, and clad-wood doors. Upgrading to shatterproof glass can also improve the lifespan of exterior French doors.

You can use wood, metal, or plastic as a door shim, but keep in mind that wood will rot easier than the other two materials. Your local hardware store should have at least one type in stock. Alternatively, you can trim a piece of cardboard to fit underneath your door hinge and work as a temporary, makeshift door shim.

Yes, prehung doors include a door jamb. Prehung doors are sold as a single piece with the door frame already constructed, including the hinges. The only part missing is the trim, which you add after fastening the door. They are more expensive than slab doors but are quicker and easier to install. Prehung doors come in an array of sizes, so there’s likely an option to fit any doorway you need.
