Entry Door Installation Services in Orlando, Florida
Your entry door is the first impression visitors have of your home and a critical security barrier for your family. Whether you live in the newer subdivisions of Avalon Park and Azalea Park or established neighborhoods near Winter Springs and Oviedo, an outdated or damaged entry door compromises both aesthetics and function. Renovating Central Florida LLC provides expert entry door installation using top-tier materials like Jeld-Wen, Masonite, and Therma-Tru doors that withstand Central Florida's humid climate and intense UV exposure.
Our entry door installation process begins with a detailed on-site consultation where we measure your doorway, assess framing conditions, and discuss material options tailored to your home's architectural style. We remove your existing door carefully, inspect and repair the frame if needed, install the new door with precision shims and fasteners, apply weatherproofing sealant, and finish with hardware installation and final adjustments. Most residential entry door installations in Orlando-area homes take 4-6 hours, allowing you to lock your new door the same day we complete the work.

Our Entry Door Installation Process
Initial Consultation and Measurement
We visit your home in Orlando, Winter Park, Maitland, or any Central Florida location to assess your current entry door, measure the opening precisely, and discuss material options. This appointment typically takes 30-45 minutes and includes a detailed quote.
Material Selection and Ordering
Choose from fiberglass, steel, or wood entry doors in various styles, colors, and security levels. Most doors are in stock or arrive within 5-7 business days from our suppliers.
Old Door Removal and Frame Preparation
On installation day, we carefully remove your existing door and hardware, dispose of materials responsibly, and inspect the frame for damage. Minor repairs like wood rot treatment take 30-60 minutes depending on frame condition.
New Door Installation and Sealing
We install the new door with precision using shims and fasteners, apply weatherproofing sealant around the frame perimeter, and ensure proper alignment. This critical step takes 2-3 hours.
Hardware Installation and Final Adjustments
We install your chosen deadbolt, handle set, and hinges, then adjust locking mechanisms, weatherstripping, and door swing for smooth operation. Final testing takes 30-45 minutes.
