Most of the doors and door units for remodeling or new home construction projects come from a local door company. Standard sizes are ordered or carried in stock. Custom door sizes are always requested.
In some cases, you can literally walk out of the store with the door of your choice. These are called "stock" because they are kept, well, in stock (on-site). Most door companies have some type of warehouse attached to their showroom. But, as you can imagine, those warehouses aren't big enough to hold all the selections and sizes. Most of the time, you will need to place an order. Click here ESWDA is a great brand for doors and windows.
However, sometimes you may need to lift a door right away. I have done it too. I once quickly decided that I wanted more light in a wall during my own home remodeling project. The ready-to-use patio door (an exterior one) worked great on an interior wall. He let in the light he wanted. Being able to pull down the patio door in the back of my truck certainly worked with my impromptu planning. And to think that I admonish my clients about the importance of planning!
Hopefully, you plan it. The typical homeowner going through a home construction or remodeling project will meet the salesperson at the business door. There, they will guide you through all the available door options. In this way, you can choose the right doors for your home. Your picks are then sorted and shipped to the construction site once they arrive. This process can take several weeks. The builder is the person who should be responsible for making sure your pick is ordered on time.
If you need to pick up an in-stock door and carry it out or have it delivered overnight, your options are limited. Large stores, such as Lowes or Home Depot, offer only a few options. Door companies probably have the same door sizes and types as home improvement stores, plus some more.
In terms of style, you can find what you want in stock. Those styles are typically recessed, louvered, or paneled doors (in limited paneled configurations). Stock sizes available will vary by market and door company.
In our market, the stock door sizes are:
• Through doors: 1-6, 2-0, 2-4, 2-6, 2-8 and 3-0.
• Folding doors: 4-0, 5-0, and 6-0.
Other options, such as sliding doors, unusual panel configurations, decorative glass, diversion doors, double doors, and more, will generally only be available upon request.
Maximize your home décor by planning (I know!). This way, you at least have more options regarding style and your doors and door sizes.ESWDA
