Door Frame Repair

Door Frame Repair is the fix for a frame that has rotted, cracked, or pulled away from the wall, and in Orlando’s humidity and afternoon thunderstorms, wood frames take a beating. We see it constantly in neighborhoods like Conway, College Park, and Door Replacement - Casselberry: swelling from moisture, termite damage along the base, or a door that was kicked in and never properly reset. Juniper Windows Orlando repairs or replaces the frame itself, re-hangs the door, and shims everything square so the latch catches clean and the weatherstripping seals tight. Depending on the extent of the damage and whether the frame is wood, composite, or metal-clad, expect to pay $250-$850 for a standard repair. A full frame replacement with new casing runs $600-$1,400.

When the frame can be saved

Small cracks, surface rot, and loose hinges are usually repairable without pulling the whole unit. We cut out the damaged section, splice in new material, and reinforce the hinge points with longer screws that bite into the jack stud. This keeps your existing door in place and costs less than a full swap.

When the frame needs to go

If you can push a screwdriver into the wood or see daylight around the door when it’s closed, the frame has lost its structural integrity. We’ll pull the old casing, install a new frame, and set the door with fresh insulation around the rough opening – then take photos so you can see exactly what changed behind the trim.

Interior Door Replacement

Interior Door Replacement swaps out the doors inside your home – bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, and hallways – with new slabs that match your trim and hardware. Orlando homeowners do this most often after water damage from a leaky AC drain pan, when a hollow-core door gets punched through, or when they’re tired of looking at flat, builder-grade doors from the 90s. We measure each opening, order the right width and swing, and install solid-core or hollow-core doors with pre-hung frames or slab-only swaps depending on what your jambs can take. Budget $180-$400 per door installed for standard sizes, more if you want solid wood, glass inserts, or custom widths.

Solid core vs. hollow core

Solid-core doors weigh more and block sound noticeably better, which matters in a house where the laundry room sits next to a bedroom. Hollow-core doors cost less and are easier on hinges, but they transmit noise and feel flimsy. We’ll show you samples of both and give you a per-door price in writing before we order.

Matching doors to existing trim

If your baseboards and casing are painted white, a primed MDF door blends in with one coat of paint and ten minutes of touch-up. For stained wood trim in older Orlando homes, we can match the species and stain color or recommend a complementary finish that doesn’t look like a patch job.

Interior Door Installation

Interior Door Installation covers the full job of removing an old door, prepping the rough opening, and hanging a new pre-hung unit – frame, slab, casing, and hardware included. This is the right service when you’re doing a remodel in an area like Baldwin Park, Altamonte Springs Door Replacement, or Winter Park and need the door opening adjusted, not just the slab swapped. Juniper Windows Orlando installs pre-hung interior doors with shims and 3-inch screws into the framing, not just the trim, so the door doesn’t drift out of square six months later. Standard installation runs $220-$550 per door including basic casing and hardware mounting.

New construction vs. existing openings

If we’re working with a framed opening that’s never had a door, we check the rough opening dimensions against the door size and make sure the header is level before anything gets nailed in. For existing homes, we account for settled floors and out-of-plumb walls, trimming the jambs so the reveal stays even from top to bottom.

Hardware and hinge placement

We mount hinges at the standard 7 inches from the top and 11 inches from the bottom, with a third hinge centered for doors over 60 inches tall. You bring the knob or handle you want, or we can supply it. Either way, the latch plate gets routed flush and the strike plate catches dead center on the first try.

Door Installers

Door Installers are the people who physically hang your doors, and the difference between a good one and a bad one shows up in the first month: a door that swings open on its own, a latch that scrapes, or a gap at the bottom that lets in every palmetto bug in Orange County. Every Juniper Windows Orlando installer is background-checked, uniformed, and trained on the specific products we carry, from PGT impact doors to Therma-Tru fiberglass entry units. We don’t subcontract to random crews. The same people who measure your openings are the ones who install your doors, and they’re the ones who come back if anything isn’t right. Door installation labor alone runs $200-$600 per door depending on size, weight, and whether it’s an interior or exterior unit.

Why our installers stay with us

We pay our crew by the hour, not by the job, which means nobody is rushing to get to the next appointment. That shows in the details: shims every 16 inches, foam insulation around exterior frames, and a final walk-through where we open and close the door with you and make adjustments on the spot.

What to expect on install day

You’ll get a live arrival time in the morning, and your installer will lay down floor protection before removing the old door. The work typically takes two to four hours per opening, and you’ll receive before-and-after photos attached to your digital invoice before we leave the driveway.

Door Contractors

Door Contractors are the companies you hire to manage the whole door project – measuring, ordering, pulling any necessary permits, and handling the installation from start to finish. In Orlando, homeowners choose a contractor over a handyman when the job involves an exterior door, an impact-rated product, or anything that affects the building envelope. Juniper Windows Orlando operates as a licensed door contractor with two decades of installations behind the brand. We pull permits when the city requires them, schedule inspections, and stand behind every install with the 365-Day Done Right Promise – 365 days, parts and labor, in writing. Exterior door replacement through a contractor typically runs $1,200-$4,500 in Orlando depending on the door material and whether it’s impact-rated.

Permits in Orlando and Orange County

Exterior door replacements that change the rough opening size or involve structural headers often require a permit through the City of Orlando or Orange County. We handle that paperwork for you and schedule the inspection, so you’re never left wondering if the work meets Florida Building Code.

The written price commitment

Before any work starts, you’ll have a written price that covers the door, hardware, labor, and any permit fees. If we find something unexpected inside the wall – rotten framing, termite damage – we stop, show you photos, and get your sign-off on a revised line item before continuing. No contractor in Orlando should work any other way.

Brands We Service

We stock and service CGI doors, and we’ve handled hundreds of their impact-rated units across Orlando’s coastal-adjacent communities. CGI builds their doors with heavy-gauge aluminum and laminated glass designed to hold up to wind-borne debris without shattering – a real consideration when a named storm spins up in the Atlantic. We can service existing CGI installations, replace weatherstripping and thresholds, and install new units with the correct anchoring for Florida’s wind-load requirements.

CWS and ES Windows round out the impact-rated lines we carry for Orlando homeowners who want serious protection without giving up natural light. CWS doors come in a broad range of finishes and configurations, while ES Windows is known for slim sightlines that maximize glass area. Whether you have a CGI door that needs a tune-up or you’re pricing a new CWS or ES Windows unit, our team can service it and quote the replacement honestly.

Signs You Need a Pro Right Now

• Your door won’t latch without lifting or pulling. This usually means the hinges have loosened or the frame has settled out of square. Left alone, the misalignment grinds down the strike plate and eventually damages the door edge, turning a $20 hinge fix into a $500 door replacement.
• You can see daylight around the door when it’s closed. That gap is where your air conditioning escapes and Orlando humidity creeps in. It also means the weatherstripping isn’t compressing, so the door isn’t doing its job as a thermal and moisture barrier.
• The door feels heavy, sticks, or scrapes along the floor. In Orlando’s humid season, wood doors swell and start dragging. If you keep sanding it down, you’re treating a symptom. A professional will plane the door properly and seal the edges so the moisture stays out.
• The bottom of an exterior door is soft or discolored. That’s rot from standing water or splash-back on the threshold. The longer it sits, the deeper the damage goes into the frame and possibly the subfloor. We see this on older homes built before current flashing standards were common.
• Your door feels flimsy or you can see cracks around the frame. A hollow-core door or a cracked jamb isn’t much of a barrier. If security matters, a solid-core or impact-rated replacement is the practical upgrade, and the frame needs to be anchored properly for it to mean anything.

3. 3
   Written price and scope sign-off. Before ordering anything, you’ll receive a written quote that locks in the door cost, hardware, labor, and permit fees if applicable. If you approve, we order the door and schedule your installation date. Nothing happens without your signature.
4. 4
   Installation day. Your installer arrives at the live-tracked arrival time, protects the floors, removes the old door, and installs the new unit with foam insulation, proper flashing, and hardware adjustment. You’ll get photo updates as the work progresses and a final walk-through where we test every function with you.
5. 5
   After-install verification and warranty. Your digital invoice arrives with before-and-after photos attached. Every installation is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise – if anything isn’t right within a year, we fix it at no charge. You also get a free second visit if a repair fails.
