"This was our third door replaced by Renewal By Anderson, Heritage Window & Door, Superior, WI. Matt & Tyler couldn't have been more professional with the installation and customer service. We look forward to our fourth door replacement coming up this Spring. We can already tell the difference in less draft and more warmth in the area of the new storm door! When the gentlemen left, you couldn't tell anyone was here as their cleanup was spotless!"
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"I would like to say that we would use GF Company in the future. The Positive: The sales representative, Ken Jr., was astounding. His knowledge of his field was excellent and I enjoyed talking with him. He was also very thorough with his estimate and writing down in great detail what we wanted to have done. I hope we get him as our sales representative when it is time to do our roof or our windows. The work was done exactly as Ken Jr. had written on the estimate. For the most part the work matches the current look of the shed and it has already filled the water barrel. The Negatives: It was difficult to communicate with GF Company. We had originally received a quote from Rick a year before the work was done and we contacted GF Company many times to speak with him about getting the work done, but none of our phone calls were returned. Finally we asked for someone new and we got Ken Jr. sent to us. After we paid our half-down deposit, we were told that we would get a call in about three weeks to find a date for the work to be done. After about 5 weeks we tried contacting GF Company. One phone call had us speaking with a lady on the phone who said that someone would call us back soon, but that never happened. We never received a call to tell us when the work would be done as we wanted to have someone home to make sure things were done to our specifications. Several days after our phone call was not returned, we received a text message from our neighbor telling us that someone was doing work on our property, but my wife and I were both at work and by time we got home the work was done. Since Ken Jr. did such a great job with writing down what we wanted, we did not have any issues with what was done. It appears that one of the items created on site for our downspout on the shed was likely spray painted on site. The paint job has already faded, but we can find some paint to paint it again. Overall, it sounds like we had a bad experience, but we did not. The work that was done was done well and the sales representative we worked with was very knowledgeable. We would use GF Company again and recommend them, but encourage folks to have patience with communication. "
Ted Stoke, was great, right on the day he said, and he controlled his crew to my wishes!!
They work crew were there the same day I got the estimate. I was totally blown away, I had not even had a chance to clear off my deck as I was at work. The crew carefully took all the things off my deck and put them in my yard. They were there 3 days, and came back one more day to finish up the underneath trim work. The deck came out looking great! Very nice painting, didn't miss a single spot. Now my slab window under my deck is sealed up tight to keep animals from there and there is lattice covering underneath the deck
Great Job, I will probably have them back in the future as I have more things in mind.

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.
Pocket and standard doors are similar in price, but pocket doors cost more to install than standard doors. Professionals usually charge around $150 to $200 to hang a standard door. But if you're installing a pocket door on an existing wall, you'll likely pay between $1,000 and $3,500.
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.
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.
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.
Wood is more susceptible to damage than metal, and a wood door can benefit from upgraded locks, screws, and strike plates. Additional features like security doors, latch keys, and deadbolts are also a plus. Installing a comprehensive security system will also boost your home’s protection and make you feel safer.
The difference between a mortise latch and a tubular latch is how they're mounted. A mortise latch has a single integrated lock body. One long rectangular space is cut into the door to contain it. A single keyhole is used to unlock both the dead bolt and latch from the outside. A tubular latch is a standard setup with a dead bolt separate from the regular spring bolt latch.
