Whether it’s a patio sliding door replacement or new front door installation, Wheaton, IL residents can count on the installation team at Mr. Handyman to ensure their home has a proper layer of protection, improves its energy efficiency, and looks beautiful.
Generally, our replacement process for exterior doors follows this process:
- Selection: After your initial and in-home consultation for exterior door installation, Wheaton, IL handyman will provide recommendations, measure your current door and opening, and help you find and select the ideal door for your home.
- Removal: On the day of your exterior or front door replacement, Wheaton, IL professionals will take care of removing the interior and exterior trim around the door, the fasteners, and the door frame.
- Preparation: Our team will clean and vacuum the opening to remove any debris and ensure everything is level for your exterior door replacement. Wheaton, IL installers will then install new metal flashing or a drip cap above the opening to prevent water infiltration.
- Installation: Moving onto the actual exterior and front door replacement, Wheaton professionals will dry fit the door in the rough opening to ensure it fits before lifting and shimming the unit in place, attaching it to the frame if only the slab is being replaced and the old frame is in good condition. However, in many cases, it’s better to opt for a pre-hung door that comes with the slab already installed on a frame. For that scenario, our team will remove the old frame and secure the new one. They’ll then seal gaps, add insulation, caulk around it, and install hardware. Depending on the door, the entire installation project generally takes half a day.
- Inspection: Our installers will check to ensure your unit’s full functionality before completing your exterior door replacement.
