Every front door installation includes professional measurement, proper frame preparation, weatherproofing, and hardware installation. We don’t just hang a door—we create a complete entrance system that performs.
For Emleys Hill homes, this means understanding local architectural styles and climate challenges. We know which materials work best in this area, how to handle the seasonal temperature changes, and what details make the difference between a door that looks good and one that performs well for years.
Our service covers iron doors, steel doors, fiberglass options, and custom designs. We handle both standard replacements and complex installations that require frame modifications. Each installation comes with our commitment to quality and our understanding of what New Jersey homeowners actually need.
Most front door installations take between 2-4 hours, depending on your specific situation. If we’re replacing a standard door with a similar size, it’s usually on the shorter end of that range.
More complex installations—like custom iron doors or situations where we need to modify the frame—can take longer. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during our initial consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
The key is proper preparation. We handle all the measuring and planning upfront so installation day goes smoothly without surprises or delays.
Front door replacement typically ranges from $500 to $2,000 for standard options, while custom iron doors can range from $3,000 to $10,000 depending on design complexity and materials.
The final cost depends on several factors: the door material you choose, any custom features, whether your frame needs modifications, and the complexity of the installation. Steel and fiberglass doors are generally more affordable, while custom iron doors represent a higher investment.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden costs. During our consultation, we’ll discuss your options and give you a clear breakdown so you can make an informed decision that fits your budget.
Yes, custom iron doors are one of our specialties. We design and install iron doors that match your home’s specific architecture and your personal style preferences.
The process starts with understanding your vision—whether you want traditional scrollwork, modern clean lines, or something completely unique. Our in-house design team works with you to create a door that fits your home perfectly.
Custom iron doors require specialized installation techniques because of their weight and complexity. Our team has the experience and equipment to handle these installations properly, ensuring your door operates smoothly and securely for years to come.
For New Jersey’s climate, steel and fiberglass doors offer excellent durability and energy efficiency. Steel provides superior security and handles temperature changes well, while fiberglass resists moisture and won’t warp or crack.
Iron doors are also excellent for our area when properly finished and maintained. They provide unmatched security and can be designed to handle our seasonal weather variations.
Wood doors offer classic beauty but require more maintenance in our climate. If you choose wood, we recommend options with proper weatherproofing and regular upkeep to handle New Jersey’s humidity and temperature swings.
Absolutely. A properly installed front door with good weatherproofing can significantly reduce energy loss and lower your utility bills. Old doors often have gaps, poor sealing, or insufficient insulation that lets conditioned air escape.
Modern doors come with better insulation values and advanced weatherstripping systems. When we install your door, we pay special attention to creating a tight seal that prevents air leaks.
The energy savings add up over time, especially in New Jersey where we use both heating and cooling systems heavily throughout the year. Many homeowners notice a difference in their utility bills within the first few months.
Several signs indicate it’s time for front door replacement. Visible gaps around the frame, difficulty opening or closing, drafts you can feel, or damage from weather are all clear indicators.
If your door is more than 15-20 years old, replacement often makes more sense than repairs. Older doors typically lack the energy efficiency and security features of modern options.
During our consultation, we’ll assess your current door’s condition and help you understand whether repair or replacement is the better investment. Sometimes minor adjustments can extend a door’s life, but often replacement provides better long-term value.
