Our Work · The install method
How we install,
and why it lasts.
01 · The specialization
Forty years.
One trade.
Doors.
Most contractors take whatever work walks in — kitchens one week, decks the next, a bathroom on the side. We don't. Forty years, eighteen thousand installs, one specialty.
That focus is the whole pitch. We know which entry doors fight you in the cold, which patio sliders bind ten years in, and which storm-door closers need backing off the first week. Nothing about your opening surprises us, because we've already done it eighteen thousand times.
The flashing-tape prep, the shim pattern, the closer pressure — these are details most installers skip because they only hang a door a few times a year. We do it every day. It's why our installs last and our callbacks are short.

03 · How a job runs
Four steps,
in this order.
- 01
Measure
We measure the rough opening, not the trim. Old framing is rarely square and that affects every other decision downstream.
- 02
Prep
Pull the old unit, check the subfloor for rot, shim the jambs plumb and level. Nothing goes in until the opening is true.
- 03
Set & tape
Self-adhesive flashing tape on the sill pan, jambs, and head. Then the door goes in, gets shimmed at every hinge, and locked tight.
- 04
Finish
Backer rod and low-expansion foam in the gap. Interior and exterior trim re-installed. Site is broom-clean before we leave.
