Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new door installation cost?

1

The cost depends on the type of door, whether it's new construction or a replacement, and the condition of the existing opening. We provide estimates based on the specific project and can often give a rough idea from photos.


Can you replace just the door without replacing the frame?

2

In some cases, yes. If the existing frame is in good condition and properly sized, a slab replacement may be an option. We'll inspect the opening and recommend the best approach.


Do you install customer-supplied doors?

3

Yes. We can install doors purchased by the homeowner, builder, or property manager, or we can help source materials for the project. We strongly recommend having a door professional measure for your retrofit work, though.


How long does door installation take?

4

Many installations can be completed in a single visit, though larger projects or custom doors may require additional time. We'll discuss timing before work begins.
