Door installation and repairin Las Vegas.

Door installation in Las Vegas ranges from swapping a hollow-core bedroom door to hanging a new entry door that faces the afternoon sun. We also repair the doors you already have: ones that stick, drag on the carpet, won't latch, or let light and dust through the gaps.

Interior doors are sold pre-hung (already mounted in a frame) or as a bare slab that fits the existing frame. A slab keeps your trim intact but has to be cut to size, notched for hinges and drilled for the latch to match. A pre-hung unit means pulling the old frame and trim, but it solves a frame that is out of square.

Sliding closet doors, barn doors and patio sliders have their own problems. Desert dust packs into bottom tracks and wears out rollers, so a door that fights you often needs new rollers and a clean, straight track rather than a replacement.

Exterior doors here take more punishment than most. Summer highs above 110°F, direct afternoon sun and dry air crack weatherstripping, fade finishes and can warp wood doors. When the seal fails, you feel it as a hot draft and see it as a line of dust inside the threshold.

Material choice matters in that climate. Fiberglass and steel entry doors hold their shape better than solid wood in full sun, though dark steel doors get very hot to the touch. New weatherstripping, a door sweep and an adjusted threshold are often all an older door needs to seal again.

In Summerlin, Anthem, Green Valley Ranch, Inspirada, Cadence and other HOA communities, a new front door in a different style or color often needs approval first, so check before ordering. Cutting or widening an opening changes the framing and can need a permit from Clark County or your city, and we tell you up front when a job does.

The door itself is the first variable: hollow-core, solid-core, fiberglass or steel, with or without glass. After that comes the opening. A frame that is square and solid takes a new door quickly, while a frame that has shifted, a split jamb or a damaged threshold adds carpentry before the door goes in.

Hardware and finish add up too. Reusing your knobs and hinges is simpler than switching to a new finish or a smart lock, and an unfinished or primed door needs paint or stain once it is hung. Exterior doors may also need new trim and caulk against the stucco so the opening is sealed on the outside.

For repairs, send photos of the door, the hinges and the latch, plus a note on what it does wrong. That is usually enough for a written flat quote. Several sticking doors, a closet slider and new weatherstripping can go on one visit and one quote.
