"Recently we hired Ardmore to replace the glass in 2 of our skylights and install a new storm door. Other than rain delays the skylights were installed in less than 2 hours as Ardmore sent 2 crews for the installation. They even came inside to vacuum any debris that might have fallen into the house during the installation. (5 out of 5). The installation of the storm doors was different. It took over 10 hours for 2 men to finish the installation which I felt was excessive and felt they didn't do the installation correctly. The difference between a good company and a better company is how well they fix a problem and to this point they are doing a better job. When I called to complain the scheduler immediately suggested they send out someone to inspect the work and within 3 days someone came out and fixed 2 out of the 3 problems and said someone would be calling me and ordering a replacement part to fix the 3rd problem"

"Gosh, where do I start? We had a complete James Hardie siding remodel, and on the one hand, Opal did a great job. But, dealing with their constant miscommunications and failures to uphold their end of the contract is just too much for one to handle. After investing just under $50k into this project, we were doing the final walk around there were some things that needed to be touched-up. When they came back to do the work, they treated us with such disrespect as if we were bothering them to adjust some things that the crew so clearly rushed on during the install. One crew member showed up to our house late in the evening, just before dark to install something and did not even call first. Then he knocked on the door and said: *Check* for the final payment. We were not tricky clients, and we were hardly ever around during the day. Towards the end, we got nothing but rudeness because they wanted us to accept what they did and not want everything to look like we were paying $50k. Opals staff will tell you things that are not true, cause a lot of frustration and try to hold you accountable for it. They will also mail your address on a flyer out to everyone in your surrounding neighborhood. So be prepared for strangers to be driving by - though they consider this as *marketing* - without your consent, of course. Would I recommend Opal? No. We are now getting quotes for windows/doors and a roof but with a different company - though Opal does all of this."

"After 5 different companies told me I would need to pull up my deck so that they could replace the rollers on my patio door, these guys did the replacement in less than 2 hours and never needed to remove the door. Scheduling was easy, they arrived on time, and the cost was reasonable. Would definitely use them again."

FAQs for doors (exterior) installation and replacement projects in Elgin, IL

Modern steel doors incorporate protective coatings and finishes that significantly reduce rust potential. These treatments create effective moisture barriers when properly maintained. Small scratches or damage should be promptly addressed with touch-up paint to prevent moisture from reaching the underlying metal. 

Doors in coastal or high-humidity environments benefit from additional protective measures and more frequent inspection. With proper care, most steel doors resist corrosion for decades.

Steel doors provide superior resistance against forced entry attempts compared to fiberglass alternatives. The inherent strength of steel creates a formidable barrier that resists impacts and tampering more effectively than composite materials. 

While high-quality fiberglass doors offer reasonable security, steel provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and structural integrity. For maximum protection, look for steel doors with reinforced strike plates and multi-point locking systems.

Most manufacturers provide warranties covering manufacturing defects for periods ranging from five to 15 years, depending on the product line and quality tier. Hardware components often carry separate warranty coverage, often for shorter durations. Installation services may include workmanship guarantees covering proper fitting and operation. Always review warranty documentation carefully to understand coverage limitations and maintenance requirements that might affect warranty validity.

Provided your existing wood frame remains structurally sound and properly aligned, professional installers can often adapt a steel door to fit. The process requires careful measurement and potentially minor modifications to accommodate the new door's specifications. The frame must provide adequate support for the heavier steel door construction. A qualified installer will evaluate your current frame's condition and recommend appropriate adjustments to ensure proper function and security.
