Door Questions — Ship Bottom, NJ
If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.
Slab vs. prehung is the first thing we assess on every Ship Bottom door job — the frame determines the answer. A slab door is just the door panel — it goes into the existing frame. A prehung door comes with the frame, hinges, and threshold already assembled. If the existing frame is plumb, square, and in good condition, a slab swap is appropriate. If the frame is rotted, out of square, or the rough opening needs work, prehung is the right approach.
Door style selection for Ship Bottom homes depends on the architecture — here’s how we approach it. The door style should match the architectural character of the home. Colonial and traditional homes in Ship Bottom typically do best with a six-panel fiberglass door or a wood-grained pattern that fits the era. Craftsman homes call for a different profile. We bring options to the estimate and won’t push a style that looks out of place on your home.
Door frame rot is one of the most common issues we find on Ship Bottom homes and the cause is almost always the same. Frame rot almost always comes from one of two sources: a failed sill pan that lets water pool under the threshold, or missing or failed caulking at the sides of the frame where it meets the siding. We install proper sill pan flashing on every door job and caulk all transitions to stop the water entry at the source.
