Our installation teams combine carpentry skills with modern installation techniques to deliver results that meet both functional requirements and design expectations.
Types of Door Installation Services
Interior Door Installation
Interior doors define spaces within homes and commercial buildings while providing privacy and noise control. Our interior door installation service covers bedroom doors, bathroom doors, closet doors, and office partitions. We work with various styles including hinged doors, sliding doors, bi-fold doors, and pocket doors. Material options include solid wood, hollow core, solid core, and glass panel doors.
Proper interior door installation involves precise measurement of door openings, frame preparation, hinge placement calculation, and hardware alignment. Our installers ensure consistent reveal around the door perimeter, smooth swing operation, and proper latch engagement for reliable daily use.
Exterior Door Installation
Exterior doors serve as primary entry points and must meet higher standards for security, weather resistance, and energy efficiency. Our exterior door installation encompasses front doors, back doors, side entrance doors, and patio doors. We specialize in installing solid wood doors, steel security doors, fiberglass doors, and glass doors with appropriate weatherstripping and threshold systems.
Security considerations include reinforced frames, multi-point locking systems, and hinge protection. Weather protection involves proper sealing, drip caps, and threshold installation to prevent water infiltration and air leakage. Our installers ensure doors are plumb, level, and square for optimal performance.
Specialized Door Installation
Beyond standard residential and commercial doors, we install specialized doors for specific purposes. Fire-rated doors require precise installation to maintain their fire resistance certification, including correct clearances and fire-rated hardware. Security doors with reinforced construction and advanced locking mechanisms demand expert installation to function as designed.
Accessibility doors for disabled access must meet specific width, threshold, and hardware requirements. Acoustic doors for soundproofing require careful sealing and specialized installation techniques. Glass doors, including frameless glass doors and automatic sliding doors, need specialized handling and installation procedures.
Installation Process and Quality Standards
Our door installation process begins with accurate measurement and assessment of existing conditions. We evaluate door frame condition, wall plumb, floor level, and structural support requirements. For new construction, we coordinate with other trades to ensure proper rough opening dimensions and frame installation timing.
Frame installation comes first, with careful leveling, shimming, and securing to structural elements. We use appropriate fasteners for different wall types, whether masonry, timber frame, or steel stud construction. Frame squareness is verified using diagonal measurements and professional levels.
Door hanging involves precise hinge mortising, proper reveal maintenance, and hardware installation. We adjust doors for smooth operation without binding or gaps. Lock mechanisms are installed with correct backset and alignment for reliable engagement. Weather sealing for exterior doors includes compression seals, sweep installation, and threshold adjustment.
Quality control includes operation testing through full swing cycles, lock functionality verification, and visual inspection of finish quality. We provide clients with hardware keys, operating instructions, and maintenance recommendations.
Material Selection and Door Types
Wood doors offer natural beauty and can be customized through staining or painting. Options include solid hardwood, engineered wood, and veneer doors. Steel doors provide excellent security and durability with minimal maintenance requirements. Fiberglass doors combine the appearance of wood with superior weather resistance and energy efficiency.
Glass doors maximize natural light and create visual openness. Options include clear, frosted, textured, and tempered glass with various framing systems. Composite doors utilize modern materials for enhanced performance characteristics including impact resistance and thermal efficiency.
Hardware and Accessories
Professional installation includes proper hardware selection and fitting. Hinges must be correctly sized and positioned to support door weight and provide smooth operation. Lock sets range from basic privacy locks to high-security deadbolts and smart lock systems.
Door closers ensure controlled closing for commercial applications and fire doors. Kick plates, door viewers, and mail slots are installed with attention to placement and finish coordination. Weatherstripping and door sweeps complete exterior door installations for energy efficiency.
Service Areas and Applications
Operating throughout Nairobi, Kiambu County, and Kenya, we serve residential properties including single-family homes, apartments, and gated community developments. Commercial clients include offices, retail stores, restaurants, and hospitality facilities.
