Kalamazoo · Kalamazoo County · Since 2025

Door installation and repair in Kalamazoo and Kalamazoo County, since 2025.

Interior and exterior. Pre-hung and slab. Hardware swaps, weatherstripping, threshold work, and the sticking-door fix everyone needs at some point. Square, plumb, weather-sealed.

What we handle

Doors, top to bottom.

Most door jobs fall into one of these four buckets. We do all four — and the small repairs nobody else wants to drive out for.

Interior Doors

Slab swaps, pre-hung installs, hollow-core to solid-core upgrades. Bedrooms, baths, closets, laundry. Reuse existing trim or replace.

  • Slab and pre-hung
  • Bypass and bifold closet doors
  • Pocket doors (existing frame)

Exterior Doors

Front entry, back patio, garage interior. Always installed as pre-hung for proper weather seal. Threshold replacement and weatherstripping included.

  • Front entry and back patio
  • Threshold replacement
  • Weatherstrip + door sweep

Hardware

Knobs, levers, deadbolts, hinges, strike plates. Smart locks installed and tested. Hardware finish swaps to match a renovated room.

  • Knob and deadbolt swaps
  • Smart-lock installs
  • Hinge and strike alignment

Door Repair

Sticking doors, dropped hinges, broken strikes, swollen jambs, failed weatherstripping. Most repairs are a single quick visit, priced up front before we start.

  • Sticking and sagging
  • Strike-plate realignment
  • Hinge tightening or replacement
How it works

From measurement to swing test.

01

Measure or photo

For a swap, send a photo of the existing door plus rough dimensions. For a new install or different size, we measure on a free walkthrough.

02

Estimate

Written estimate spelling out door type (slab vs pre-hung), hardware reused vs replaced, and any threshold or weatherstrip work. Ordered doors add lead time we'll flag up front.

03

Schedule

Once you approve, we book the visit — a real date on the calendar, Mon–Fri 8am–5:30pm. If the door has to be ordered, we line the install up with its arrival.

04

Hang, square, seal

Demo old door, set new one plumb and square, install hardware, weatherstrip if exterior, swing test, and clean up.

Door pricing

Priced per job, in writing, before we start.

Every door job is priced per estimate — fixed-price or hourly depending on the work. Door cost depends on what you pick, so we list the door separately from the labor on the estimate.

Door FAQ

What people ask about doors.

Either. Most clients buy the door themselves — Lowe's, Home Depot, or a Kalamazoo millwork supplier — because picking style, finish, and hardware is a personal call. We're happy to spec the door size and provide a list of what to ask for, or shop with you. If you want us to source the door and bring it, we add the door cost plus a small handling fee on the estimate.
Slab if you're keeping the existing frame and hinges (faster, cheaper, the existing fit is reused). Pre-hung if the frame is damaged, you're changing door size, or it's an exterior door (which always installs as pre-hung for proper weather seal). We'll tell you which the situation calls for after we measure.
Slab swap with hardware reuse: about 1 hour. Pre-hung interior install: 2–3 hours. Pre-hung exterior install: 3–5 hours including weatherstripping and threshold. Multiple doors in one visit run faster per door because we batch the cuts and adjustments.
Yes — that's one of our most-booked door jobs. Common causes: a sagging hinge, a strike plate that's drifted out of alignment, a swollen door from humidity, or a settled frame. Most fixes are a quick same-visit repair. We'll diagnose it and give you the price on the spot, before any work starts.
Repair yes — roller replacement, track cleaning, lock and handle swaps, weatherstrip replacement. Full sliding door replacement we typically refer because they often involve framing changes that are outside handyman scope. We'll tell you honestly which side of the line your project falls on.

The full handyman scope

Doors are one slice of the full punch list we handle. Drywall, painting, carpentry, fixture installs, and the rest — the same owner doing the work, the same written estimates, the same workmanship guarantee.
