The doors,hinges, perimeter jambs and head, and the seals were all damaged in the storm. only a new bifold would be appropriate, repair was out of the question.

Cedar Doorframes

Finished Product

Nothing fancy here, but here are 11 doorframes off to a building site. each is 3000 high with small hi lites and no sills.  To suit 2700 high doors.

Doorframes are made here on an almost daily basis, and though unexciting compared to some of our other work, is a staple of what we do here at THE WINDOW MAN.

Need a doorframe? whether standard or unusual sizes, contact us for a quote.
