Door Installation in the GTA
Door Installation: What to Know Before You Hire
A door that does not sit right is usually a sign it was fitted to a frame that was not square. Door installation covers interior and exterior doors, from measuring the rough opening to hardware and weatherstripping.
What matters most is measuring the actual opening (older Toronto homes are rarely the standard size a big-box door assumes), shimming and levelling the frame, flashing and insulating exterior units, and checking that locks, hinges and seals work before the job is finished.
Reno Rise focuses on basement projects. This page is general information; the work itself is carried out by independent professionals.
