Common Questions

Entry Door FAQs

What styles of entry doors do you install?

We install single entry doors, double (French) doors, doors with sidelights, and doors with highlight panels above. Styles range from traditional panel doors suited to Queenslander and Federation homes through to clean contemporary profiles. Dave can advise on what will suit your home's architecture.

Can I get a custom-size entry door?

Yes. If your opening is non-standard — common in older Queensland homes — we can source or build a door to suit the exact dimensions. Custom sizing is part of the service, not an exception.

How do I know what size entry door I need?

Dave will measure your opening as part of the quote visit. Entry door sizing depends on the rough opening, the frame type, and any existing threshold or sill that needs to be retained or replaced. Don't try to measure yourself — small errors cause big problems with external doors.

Do you install double entry doors and French doors?

Yes — this is a specialty. Double entry doors and French doors require precise frame work and accurate hanging to ensure both leaves operate smoothly, latch correctly, and seal properly. Dave has extensive experience with these installations.

How do you ensure entry doors are secure after installation?

Security comes down to proper frame anchoring, correct door weight and fit, and quality lock hardware. Dave installs doors with appropriately rated deadbolts and hardware for the door type. He can advise on hardware upgrades if your existing hardware is inadequate.

What is involved in replacing an existing entry door?

The process typically involves removing the existing door and frame, assessing the rough opening for square and level, installing the new frame and door, fitting all hardware, sealing and weather-stripping the perimeter, and finishing (painting or staining) to complete the job.

How long does entry door installation take?

A straightforward single entry door replacement typically takes one full day. Double doors or installations requiring frame modifications take longer — usually 1.5 to 2 days. Dave will give you an accurate timeframe when he quotes.

Do you offer a warranty on your installation work?

Yes. Dave's workmanship is covered by the statutory warranty provisions under Queensland's QBCC framework. All work is fully insured and QBCC licensed, giving you the protections that come with a licensed trade.
