Supply and installation of a new interior door, hung, adjusted and finished. Door installation looks simple and rarely is. Older Los Angeles homes have settled, which means the opening is seldom square and the floor is seldom level. Hanging a new slab in a racked opening without correcting for it gives you a door that swings open on its own or catches at the top corner. Our crew checks the opening, packs and shims the frame plumb, and hangs the door so the reveal is even the whole way round. The scope included fitting the hinges and hardware, adjusting the latch and strike so the door closes without being forced, and finishing the trim and casing. We install interior and exterior doors, replace slabs into existing frames, and correct doors that stick, drag or fail to latch.
We supplied and installed a new interior door: hung, adjusted and finished. The scope covered fitting the hinges and hardware, adjusting the latch and strike so the door closes without being pushed, and finishing the trim and casing.
Before hanging anything, our crew checked the opening, then packed and shimmed the frame plumb so the reveal around the door is even on all sides.
Older Los Angeles homes have settled. Openings are seldom square and floors are seldom level, and a new slab dropped into a racked opening will swing open by itself or catch at the top corner. Correcting for that is most of the skill.
To get an accurate quote, tell us three things: the rough size of the opening, whether the existing frame is staying, and which way the door should swing. Solid-core doors are heavier and quieter than hollow-core, and they need hinges and screws to match.
Swapping an interior door like for like needs no permit. Exterior doors, fire-rated doors between a house and an attached garage, and any change to the size of an opening are different, and rules vary by jurisdiction, so mention those at the start. We also correct existing doors that stick, drag or will not latch.
