Entry and Patio Doors for South Orange Homes
Everything you need to choose, price, and install a new exterior door.
Front Door Replacement & Installation
Front door replacement starts with a look at what’s behind the trim. If the sill or jambs are soft, you see it first. Then the new door goes in shimmed and fastened to spec, foamed with low-expansion foam, sealed, and finished with capped trim and a tested lockset.

Why We’re the Door Company South Orange Calls
A new door is an investment. Here’s what you get for it.
Every door gets its hardware and lockset installed and tested. We check the latch and the deadbolt before we call it finished.
If your door just needs new weatherstrip or a hinge adjustment, we’ll tell you. We don’t sell new doors to people who don’t need them.
We photograph what we find at the estimate, from soft sill wood to missing flashing, so you see the problem with your own eyes.
We check the opening before the door goes in and set it plumb, level, and square. That’s what keeps a door from sticking or drifting open.
Doors from Therma-Tru, ProVia, Masonite, and Jeld-Wen give you real choices in style, material, glass, and hardware finish.
Before we leave, we open, close, and lock the new door with you and check the weatherstrip. Any questions get answered right there.
What to Ask Before You Hire a Door Installer
A good door company should be happy to answer hard questions. What’s included in the price? What happens if the rough opening is out of square? Who handles rotted wood if it turns up, and how is it priced? Is there a written warranty on the installation, and does it transfer if you sell? If you get vague answers or pressure to sign that day, that tells you what you need to know.
We know the difference between a door that looks good the day it goes in and a door that still works years later. It comes down to the install, and that’s where we put the effort. Five-star rated on Google and licensed and insured. For door replacement in South Orange, call (973) 713-1053.
Front Door and Patio Door FAQ for South Orange
Everything you wanted to ask about new exterior doors.
Two things set the cost: the door you pick and the condition of the opening it goes into. A patio door, a fiberglass front entry, and a steel side door are all priced differently, and rotted framing adds work. We quote every job in writing, itemized, at no charge. Try our online calculator for a ballpark.
Replacement is the better call when the door keeps sticking, drafting, or leaking no matter what you adjust, or when you can see rot or rust. If the door is in good shape and just out of adjustment, a fix may do it. We’ll give you our honest opinion at a free estimate and back it up with photos.
We do. Hinged French patio doors get replaced, and we can put new ones in place of old sliders when the opening allows it. French doors need to be set square so both panels close and seal evenly, and that’s exactly what we check before we finish the job.
Absolutely, and there’s no obligation. A real estimate needs a real measurement, so we come to your house, check the rough opening for plumb and square, and look at the sill and jambs. You’ll leave with photos of anything we find and a written quote.
Absolutely. Nail Force offers financing for qualified homeowners through our financing partner, which lets you take care of a door that can’t wait without waiting on savings. Approval and terms come from the application, so start at our financing page or ask us during your free in-home estimate in South Orange.
Start with credentials and reviews, then judge the estimate. A good installer measures in person, checks for rot, and hands you an itemized written quote. Nail Force is licensed and insured, five-star rated on Google, and backs every installation with a written, transferable workmanship warranty. See why homeowners hire us and call (973) 713-1053.
That works fine with us. Buy the door you want, then call (973) 713-1053 and we’ll come measure, check the framing, and quote the installation in writing. We install owner-supplied doors with the same steps we use on doors we supply. The manufacturer covers the door itself directly with you.
Storm doors are part of what we do. We install them over front and back entry doors. A storm door adds a layer between your entry door and the weather, and a lot of homeowners like being able to swap in a screen when it’s warm. We’ll help you pick one that fits your opening and your entry door.
Door warranties work in layers. The door maker covers the product. We cover our installation work with a written workmanship warranty that transfers if the home changes hands. For owner-supplied doors, you deal with the manufacturer on the product side. Have questions? We’re happy to explain it all.
For a front door you’ll look at every day, fiberglass is usually worth it. It holds a finish well, doesn’t rot the way wood does, and comes in wood-grain styles. Steel still makes a lot of sense on secondary doors. Call (973) 713-1053 and we’ll show you both at your free estimate.
