Once your door is ready to be installed, our service professionals will prepare the area. We will remove your old door and address any irregularities or damage in your frame to ensure your new door will fit securely.

Door Installation and Repair FAQs

You likely have questions about our professional door installation and repair services. We’ve compiled our most commonly asked questions below. You can always contact Mr. Handyman if you still have unanswered questions. 

How long does it take to install an exterior door?

How long it takes to install an exterior door depends on your project’s circumstances. If we are dealing with a door opening that needs to be widened, it will take longer than switching out a door slab. On average, installing a single front door takes about two days. 

Is it better to fix a door or replace it?

If it’s better to fix your particular door or if it needs to be replaced depends on the extent of the damage. During a free consultation, we’ll assess your door for any visible damage. We can do a simple repair for minor problems. With the right tools and supplies on hand, we can efficiently address bent or busted rollers and tracks, broken hardware and latches, dents, and more. If there are more significant structural issues, we’ll recommend installing a new one.

Can I replace a door without replacing the frame?

Yes, you can replace a door without replacing the frame provided the new door slab and existing frame meet a few requirements. Check that the new door is compatible with the existing hinges, locksets, and strike plates. You may need to make adjustments for a proper fit. Your frame should be square, level, and free of any damage and not have any structural problems.

How often should you replace your front door?

Your front door should last you at least 20 years and provide a secure barrier. Difficulty operating your door or visible damage may prompt you to replace your door. We recommend looking for door installation near you when you see visible damage like cracks, dents, or warping. Keep an eye out for rot or rust, especially around the bottom or edges. It may also be time for a new door if yours is significantly weathered and the paint is peeling. Check with your trusted local Mr. Handyman if they can address sticking doors that are also difficult to open and/or close and lock, drafts that may stem from poor sealing or damaged weatherstripping, and hinges that are squeaking and/or sagging.

The longevity of your front door is also dictated by the material type.

Wood Doors: Typically last 20-30 years if well-maintained. They may need to be replaced sooner if they suffer from rot, warping, or significant weather damage.

Steel Doors: Can last 30 years or more, especially if they have a durable finish to prevent rust.

Fiberglass Doors: Often have the longest lifespan, lasting 50 years or more, as they are resistant to warping, rust, and dents.

Composite Doors: Generally last 30-40 years due to their strong, durable construction and resistance to the elements.

What time of year should you install a door?

You should install a new door in the spring or fall. Mild temperatures and low humidity make for comfortable working conditions and help ensure proper installation. Consider checking the weather forecast for rain on installation day to avoid water entering your home.
