Every front door installation includes professional measurement, custom fitting, weatherproofing, and hardware installation. We handle permits if required and coordinate with any other trades if your project needs electrical or structural work.
Sandy Hook’s coastal location means your door needs to handle salt air, wind, and temperature changes. Our iron doors are specifically treated for these conditions, with proper sealing and corrosion-resistant finishes that maintain their appearance year after year.
You get both standard and custom size options, decorative glass choices, hardware selection, and color matching to complement your home’s existing style. Everything is manufactured to your exact specifications and installed by our certified team.
Most front door installations in Sandy Hook take 4-6 hours to complete once we arrive on-site. This includes removing your old door, installing the new door and frame, adjusting everything for proper fit, and installing all hardware.
The timeline can extend if we’re installing a custom size door that requires frame modifications, or if there are structural issues we need to address. We’ll identify any potential complications during our initial measurement visit.
Weather can occasionally delay installation, especially during winter months or severe coastal storms. We schedule installations during favorable weather windows and will reschedule if conditions aren’t suitable for proper installation.
Iron doors are actually ideal for Sandy Hook’s coastal environment when they’re properly treated and installed. Our doors receive specialized coatings that resist salt air corrosion and maintain their finish despite exposure to ocean moisture.
The key is using high-grade materials and proper installation techniques. We seal all connections, use marine-grade hardware, and apply protective finishes specifically designed for coastal applications. This prevents the rust and deterioration that can affect lower-quality iron doors.
Regular maintenance is minimal – typically just occasional cleaning and inspection. The durability of properly installed iron doors far exceeds wood or composite materials in coastal conditions, making them a smart long-term investment for Sandy Hook homes.
Standard doors are pre-designed styles in common sizes that we keep in inventory. These can often be installed within a few weeks and cost less than fully custom options. They still receive professional installation and come with our quality guarantee.
Custom doors are designed specifically for your home and preferences. You choose the exact dimensions, decorative elements, glass options, hardware, and finish. Custom doors take longer to manufacture – typically 6-8 weeks – but give you complete control over the final result.
The choice depends on your timeline, budget, and how specific your requirements are. Many Sandy Hook homeowners choose custom doors because they want something that perfectly complements their home’s architecture and their personal style.
Front door costs in Sandy Hook vary significantly based on size, materials, customization level, and installation complexity. Standard iron doors typically start around $3,000-$5,000 installed, while fully custom doors can range from $5,000-$15,000 or more.
The investment includes the door itself, professional installation, hardware, weatherproofing, and any necessary frame modifications. Custom glass work, unusual sizes, or complex decorative elements increase the cost but also increase your home’s value and curb appeal.
We provide detailed written estimates after measuring your opening and discussing your preferences. This eliminates surprises and helps you make an informed decision based on your specific situation and budget.
Most standard door replacements in Sandy Hook don’t require permits when you’re replacing an existing door with a similar size door. However, if we’re changing the opening size, adding sidelights, or making structural modifications, permits may be required.
We handle permit applications when they’re needed and include permit costs in your project estimate. Our team is familiar with Monmouth County building requirements and ensures all work meets local codes and standards.
We’ll identify any permit requirements during our initial consultation and measurement visit. If permits are needed, we factor the timeline into your project schedule so there are no delays or surprises during installation.
All our door installations come with a comprehensive warranty covering both materials and workmanship. The door itself typically carries a manufacturer warranty of 5-10 years depending on the specific product, while our installation work is guaranteed for two years.
This covers any issues with fit, operation, weatherproofing, or hardware function that result from installation problems. Normal wear and maintenance items aren’t covered, but any defects in materials or installation workmanship are fully covered.
We stand behind our work and respond quickly to any warranty issues. Most problems, if they occur, show up within the first few months of installation and are resolved promptly at no cost to you.
