Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior Door Repair & Installation in Boise, ID
How do I know if my exterior door needs repair or replacement?
If your front or back door is hard to open, has cracks, warping, or lets in cold air, it likely needs repair or replacement. Many homes in Boise and Meridian suffer from door swelling due to seasonal temperature changes. We’ll inspect your door and recommend the most cost-effective solution for your comfort and security.
How much does it cost to repair or install an exterior door in Boise?
Costs vary depending on the door type (wood, steel, fiberglass), extent of damage, and whether frame or hardware replacement is needed. In the Boise and Treasure Valley area, most standard door repairs or installations fall between $200–$600 or more, but we always provide a free estimate before starting any work.
How long does it take to install a new exterior door?
Most standard exterior door installations in Boise homes take between 3–6 hours. If structural modifications or trim work are needed, it may take longer. We ensure the job is done right the first time—cleanly, securely, and efficiently.

Yes—we install custom entry doors in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Garden City, and surrounding areas. Whether you're looking for decorative glass, side lights, or unique finishes, we’ll help you find the perfect style and ensure it’s installed securely and weather-tight.
How can I improve my home's security with a new exterior door?
Upgrading to a steel or fiberglass door with reinforced frames and a quality lock system is one of the best ways to enhance security. We also install smart locks, deadbolts, peepholes, and other door security upgrades for homeowners in Boise and Meridian.
How do I maintain my exterior door to make it last longer?
Boise’s climate can be tough on doors. To extend your door’s life:
- Keep hinges lubricated

- Reseal or refinish wooden doors every few years
Regular maintenance helps prevent drafts and damage—especially during Idaho’s winter and summer extremes.
