Your front door does more than welcome guests—it protects your family and defines your home’s first impression. When you invest in quality front door installation, you’re getting security that works, beauty that lasts, and peace of mind that comes from knowing it’s done right.
No more worrying about drafts, security gaps, or doors that stick every time the weather changes. Professional installation means proper fitting, weatherproofing, and hardware that actually functions the way it should.
You’ll notice the difference immediately: smoother operation, better insulation, and a door that looks as good in five years as it does today.
We’ve built our reputation in Menlo Park Terrace and throughout New Jersey for one simple reason: we do what we say we’re going to do. When you call us, you’re not getting a salesperson—you’re getting craftspeople who understand that your front door needs to work perfectly for decades.
We’ve been installing and replacing front doors long enough to know what works in New Jersey weather and what doesn’t. Every project gets a dedicated project manager, so you always know who to call with questions.
Our in-house design team works with you to find the right door for your home, whether that’s a custom iron door or selecting from our pre-designed options.
First, we come to your home for a consultation. We’ll measure your existing opening, discuss your style preferences, and explain your options—both custom designs and pre-made doors that fit your vision.
Once you’ve selected your door, our design team creates detailed plans and our project manager coordinates everything. We handle permits if needed and schedule installation around your timeline.
Installation day is straightforward. Our team arrives on time, protects your floors and landscaping, and installs your new door with attention to proper fitting, weatherproofing, and security. We test everything before we leave—locks, weatherstripping, and smooth operation.
You get a door that works perfectly from day one, backed by people who stand behind their work.

Every front door installation includes professional measurement, proper fitting, weatherproofing, and hardware installation. We handle the removal of your old door and disposal, so you don’t have to worry about cleanup.
In Menlo Park Terrace’s climate, weatherproofing is critical. We use high-quality weatherstripping and ensure proper seal around the entire frame. Your new door will keep out drafts, moisture, and unwanted visitors.
For iron doors, we include rust-resistant finishes designed for New Jersey weather. Custom doors come with your choice of glass options, hardware finishes, and decorative elements that match your home’s architecture.
All installations include a final walkthrough where we test locks, explain maintenance, and answer any questions about your new door.
Most front door installations take 4-6 hours, depending on whether modifications are needed to the existing frame. If your current opening is standard size and in good condition, we can typically complete installation in a single day.
Custom iron doors may require additional time for proper fitting and weatherproofing. We’ll give you an exact timeline during your consultation based on your specific situation.
We always schedule with buffer time so you’re not left with an incomplete installation at the end of the day. Your home stays secure throughout the process.
Pre-designed doors are crafted from our existing patterns and can be customized with different glass, hardware, and finish options. These typically have shorter lead times and cost less than fully custom designs.
Custom doors are built specifically for your home with unique dimensions, decorative elements, and design features. Our design team works with you to create something that perfectly matches your home’s architecture and your personal style.
Both options use the same high-grade materials and craftsmanship. The choice usually comes down to timeline, budget, and how specific your design requirements are.
In most cases, replacing a front door in the same opening doesn’t require permits in Menlo Park Terrace. However, if structural modifications are needed or if you’re changing the door size, permits may be required.
We handle permit applications when needed and include the cost in your project estimate. Our team knows local building codes and works with township offices regularly.
During your consultation, we’ll let you know if permits are necessary for your specific project and take care of the paperwork if they are.
Iron doors are actually ideal for New Jersey’s climate when properly finished and installed. We use powder coating and rust-resistant treatments specifically designed for coastal and variable weather conditions.
The key is proper installation with quality weatherproofing. Iron doors don’t warp, crack, or deteriorate like wood doors can. They maintain their structural integrity and appearance through freeze-thaw cycles, humidity changes, and storm weather.
We’ve installed iron doors throughout New Jersey for over a decade, and properly maintained doors still look and function like new. Regular cleaning and occasional touch-ups keep them beautiful for decades.
We inspect your frame during the initial consultation and let you know if repairs are needed. Minor adjustments and weatherproofing updates are typically included in the installation cost.
If significant frame repair or replacement is required, we’ll explain what’s needed and provide a separate estimate for that work. We can usually handle frame repairs as part of the same project to avoid delays.
Our goal is to ensure your new door fits perfectly and performs properly. Sometimes that means addressing underlying frame issues, but we’re always upfront about what’s needed and why.
Absolutely. Our design team specializes in creating cohesive looks that complement existing architectural elements. We can match decorative patterns, finish colors, and hardware styles to coordinate with railings, gates, or other ironwork.
We’ll photograph your existing ironwork and create design options that work harmoniously with what you already have. This is especially important in neighborhoods like Menlo Park Terrace where architectural consistency adds to property values.
For custom doors, we can incorporate similar design elements directly into the door design. Even with pre-designed options, we can often modify hardware and finish choices to create a coordinated appearance.
