Doors in West Colonial

A photographic guide to the work, the equipment and the questions.

Doors

The patio door leaks at the sill, feels loose in the opening or is difficult to move, and I want to compare repair with replacement.

The pair of patio doors has daylight between the panels, rubs at the top, or no longer closes as one even set.

I want the living room to open almost completely to the patio instead of looking through one ordinary doorway.

The front door sticks, shows light around the edges, and makes the entrance feel worn out or insecure.

I want fresh air through the upper section while the lower section stays closed, with the option to operate both sections together.

I want to leave the door open for air, but bugs come in and a permanent screen would be in the way.

The door glass is cracked, cloudy or no longer suits the entrance, and I want to know whether the insert can be replaced while retaining the door.

The glass door grinds across the floor, catches in one spot, or lets rain creep under a worn sill.
