Door Replacement in Lafayette, NJ
The sidelight and transom configuration around an entry door on a Lafayette home is part of the replacement scope when the entire entry system is failing. We replace sidelights and transoms alongside the door unit when the frame is being replaced — because leaving original sidelights in a new frame creates the same air and water infiltration issues the new door was meant to solve.

Therma-Tru, ProVia, JELD-WEN available. Workmanship warranty in writing on every job.

- All Lafayette door installations are documented with a scope summary, material record, and homeowner sign-off at close-out.

Door Questions — Lafayette, NJ
If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.
Door style selection for Lafayette 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 Lafayette 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 Lafayette 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.
