Door FAQs
Questions to answer before ordering.
Should my new door swing in or out?
The direction depends on the opening, room layout, exterior landing, weather exposure, code requirements, furniture, traffic patterns, and manufacturer configuration.
What door material is best?
Fiberglass, steel, wood, and clad-wood each have different appearance, maintenance, durability, thermal, cost, and customization considerations.
Can the door match black or bronze windows?
Selected door systems offer coordinated dark exterior finishes, glass, grille patterns, and hardware directions. Final availability depends on manufacturer and product line.
What is included in professional installation?
The written scope should address opening preparation, sill support, flashing, perimeter sealing, fasteners, alignment, locks, trim, cleanup, operation, and warranty documents.
