## Door installation A door that sticks, drafts, or takes a shoulder to close is almost always an installation or settling problem, not a door problem. We hang doors plumb, shim them properly, insulate the rough opening, and flash the sill so water goes out instead of in. ### What we install - **Storm doors** — full-view, retractable screen, and self-storing - **Entry doors** — steel, fiberglass, and wood, prehung or slab - **Patio doors** — sliding and French, including converting one to the other - **Interior doors** — prehung replacements, pocket doors, barn doors, and closet doors - **Garage service doors** — insulated steel with proper fire separation to the house - **Hardware** — smart locks, deadbolts, multipoint locks, and accessible lever sets ### Why the install matters in Minnesota The rough opening around a door leaks more air than the door itself. We use low-expansion foam (regular foam bows the jamb and the door stops latching), a sill pan under exterior doors so any water that gets in drains back out, and proper flashing tape lapped over the housewrap. A fiberglass entry door with an R-value in the mid-single digits still fails if the perimeter is stuffed with loose fiberglass batt. ### Planning ranges (Twin Cities, estimates) | Work | Typical range | |---|---| | Storm door, installed | $450 – $1,100 | | Steel entry door, prehung | $900 – $2,000 | | Fiberglass entry door | $1,400 – $3,500 | | Entry door with sidelights | $2,500 – $6,000 | | Sliding patio door | $1,500 – $3,500 | | French patio door | $2,500 – $5,500 | | Interior prehung door | $300 – $700 | | Barn door with hardware | $500 – $1,400 | Estimates for planning; masonry openings and structural changes add cost. ### Fiberglass vs steel Steel is cheaper and stronger against forced entry, but it dents and the dents cannot really be fixed, and it conducts cold. Fiberglass costs more, insulates better, does not dent from a stray hockey puck, and handles the swing between -20°F and 95°F without warping. For a south- or west-facing door with a lot of sun, fiberglass is the safer choice.
