window installation. So, it's one task homeowners shy away from. With our proprietary systems and technology,
we've taken a task that typically takes 1-2 weeks of unpleasant on-site building and changed it into a simple,
hassle-free process that can be completed within a few hours in the house.

cut, representing any irregularities in the existing frame, such as bowing or moving. The doors are then factory
painted with state-of-the-art Sherwin Williams paint, specifically created for oven treating to make sure a finish

The average expense of setting up a door varies approximately between $90 and $750. This price will differ,
however which it is essential to get expense estimates from numerous outside or interior door setup business so
you know how much your particular project will cost. For instance, the kind of door you're setting up and its
product will factor into the rate.

Other aspects consist of whether you're setting up a standard-size opening or a sliding door, and whether you
need to replace an existing door.

Step 1 Household HandymanRobin believed this was a quite neat technique. Securing the wall with a putty knife
under the crowbar meant she would not have to repaint the entry. One of the biggest mistakes property owners
make is to grab a door off the home center shelf and expect it to fit right.

Initially we measured the width and height of the door. Then Robin carefully pried off the interior trim (Picture 1)
so we could determine the rough opening, which is the width between the studs and the height from the floor to
the header."Safeguarding the wall with a putty knife saved the wall paint.

Purchasing the brand-new door with the right jamb width guarantees that the interior trim fits without the
requirement for added jamb extensions. Lastly we returned outside and determined the width from the outside of
the brick molding and the height from the bottom of the sill to the top of the outside trim.

This might suggest requesting unique outside cut that's wider than basic 2-in.-large "brick molding." If you're
purchasing a door and sidelight(s), you can change the width by substituting a different size sidelight or by
adjusting the area in between the door and the sidelight. The door and sidelight were assembled at the plant and
got here as a single unit.

With the door size, jamb width and dimensions of the rough and exterior opening in hand, Robin and Danny went
door shopping (residential window installation). They found that the basic setup of a 3-ft. door and sidelight was a
few inches too narrow and 1/2 in. shorter than their existing door and sidelight.

This corrected the width problem. Robin and Danny might have purchased a customized height door and frame
for numerous hundred dollars more, however they decided to cope with the height difference and cover the space
with trim later on. We chose to add a strip of plywood under the sill to raise the door somewhat, so in the end the
much shorter height worked out completely."I was shocked at all the door alternatives available.

They picked a Therma-Tru fiberglass door with a surprisingly realistic-looking oak wood grain. The cost of the
door and sidelight system was $1,300. Luckily (for us, anyhow!), the door assembly plant wasn't too busy and the
door was delivered about 10 days later on.
