You’ll have a door that can’t be kicked in, even with tools or force, because iron provides density and rigidity that lightweight materials simply can’t match. No more worrying about break-ins or wondering if your family is actually safe.
Your energy bills drop when gaps disappear. Custom-fit iron doors are measured and constructed to match exact dimensions, leaving no space for air leaks that waste money heating the outdoors.
Iron doors increase property value, security, and energy efficiency – they’re a lasting investment that solves multiple problems at once. Your neighbors notice the difference immediately when you upgrade from a generic door to something built specifically for your home.
Iron Door Kings crafts and installs iron doors in Middlesex and Bergen Counties, creating custom iron doors that suit any architectural style, from traditional to modern. We’ve worked on everything from 1960s ranches to new construction in your area.
Our team of seasoned installers understands the constraints of fitting these heavy and complicated doors properly. We know which homes have non-standard openings, where settling has created issues, and how to handle the unique challenges that come with older Tennent properties.
You get pricing up front with no hidden costs involved. We show up when scheduled, work efficiently, and clean up completely when finished. No surprises, no excuses.
One of our team members visits your home at a time convenient for you to measure your existing door space, assess your needs, and discuss door options that work with your home’s architecture. We catch potential problems before they become expensive installation issues.
You design every aspect of your door, from intricate scrollwork to finish, choosing from traditional, modern, and rustic options to match your home’s style, plus glass type, hardware, and iron color. Our in-house design team walks you through every choice so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Installation day, we work fast but with care to get your door up soon. Iron door installation is a specialized task that demands precision because incorrect installation leads to operational problems and security vulnerabilities. That’s why we handle every detail ourselves rather than subcontracting to crews who don’t specialize in iron doors.

Every front door replacement includes professional measurement, custom manufacturing to your exact specifications, and complete installation with proper sealing. We specialize in precise fitting and sealing for all types of front doors because gaps and poor installation cause most door problems.
In NJ, fiberglass and steel front doors are popular for their durability and energy efficiency, while wood doors offer classic beauty but require more maintenance. Iron doors give you the security of steel with the customization options of wood, plus durability that outlasts both.
A typical front door replacement takes about 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the door entrance. However, Tennent homes built in the 1960s and 70s sometimes have settling issues or non-standard openings that require frame adjustments. We identify these during measurement so installation day goes smoothly.
Most front door replacements take about 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the door entrance. If your existing frame is square and in good condition, we can typically complete everything in one day.
However, older Tennent homes sometimes need threshold adjustments or frame repairs. We identify any issues during our measurement visit and explain exactly what needs to happen before installation day. This prevents delays and ensures the job is done right the first time.
The key difference between our installations and others is preparation. When we arrive to install, we already have all materials ready and know exactly what your specific opening requires.
Iron doors maintain their structure whether from attempted break-ins, windblown debris, or general wear, which is especially valuable in regions with heavy storms or wind events, and remain intact and functional even after sustained contact.
Fiberglass can crack in extreme cold and fade over time from UV exposure. We use tough iron that resists damage and looks new longer. Iron doesn’t expand and contract like other materials, so you won’t deal with seasonal sticking or gaps that develop over time.
Iron doors are naturally fire-resistant and less likely to burn, warp, or allow flames to pass through, providing added time and containment when paired with insulated core materials. This protection becomes crucial during emergencies.
Absolutely. In homes with non-standard entryways or older masonry, a fitted iron door closes securely and reliably, which is especially useful for properties in Bergen County where architecture varies across neighborhoods. The same applies to Middlesex County homes in Tennent.
We’ve handled everything from 1950s construction with unique opening sizes to homes where previous contractors cut corners during installation. Prefabricated doors leave room for installation gaps that can be exploited, while custom-fit iron doors are measured and constructed to match exact dimensions.
Common issues we address include rotted thresholds, settling that’s created gaps, and frame damage from previous installations. We repair these properly using materials that match your home’s construction and meet current building codes.
Look for doors that stick or are hard to close, weird noises when you open or close them, loose handles or hinges, or if you spot any rust creeping in – these are all signals that your door needs attention.
If you can see daylight around your closed door or feel drafts, you’re losing energy and money every day. Water stains around the frame indicate moisture penetration that will only worsen over time, potentially causing structural damage.
The biggest indicator is when you start avoiding your front door because it’s become difficult to operate. A properly installed door should work smoothly regardless of weather conditions, and you shouldn’t have to slam it to get it to latch properly.
From needs assessment through door installation, we make purchasing a new external door a seamless process, with team members visiting your home to measure existing door space, assess needs, and discuss options.
As a full-service replacement supplier, we take care of all project details from measuring your space and placing your order to installing your door and cleaning up all debris thoroughly. You don’t coordinate with multiple contractors or worry about who’s responsible if something goes wrong.
Your installation includes proper weatherstripping, threshold sealing, hardware adjustment, and testing everything before we leave. We don’t consider the job finished until your door opens smoothly, closes securely, and seals completely against weather.
