Door Installation and Maintenance Advice

- Order carefully. When purchasing a glass patio door, make sure there is 8-12 inches of frame at the floor to help prevent people from kicking the glass. Also, each movable door panel should have a lock that can be keyed.
- Check regularly. A couple times a year check for faulty weather stripping and make sure your doors are operating correctly. Once you spot a problem, take care of it before significant damage can occur.
- Measure correctly. When ordering a replacement door, make sure it is the same size. If you want a smaller door, then plan on putting in more exterior and interior framing, which can be difficult to install. For larger doors, more framing is required to support its larger size.
