Frequently Asked Questions About Charleston Interior Door Installation

  • In most cases, we recommend choosing a pre-hung door for Charleston interior door installation. That means the slab is already installed inside the frame, and the entire package can be inserted into the rough opening. When choosing a pre-hung unit, there are a couple of important factors to keep in mind so you can be sure you're getting the right fit:

    • Before making any purchase decisions, measure your rough opening carefully—it should be about two to two and a half inches wider than the pre-hung unit you select. It's also important that the width of the jambs matches the thickness of the wall, including the drywall on either side.
    • Another very important consideration before purchasing is which way your door will swing. This matters a lot because you may not have the space necessary for the unit's swing radius on one side, so you need to make sure it swings the right way.

    Aside from those two considerations, you also want to think about designs and materials that will work best for your residential or commercial property. Sometimes a different style from the traditional hinged options is your best choice. For example, when it comes to bathroom door or closet door installation, there may not be enough room for a slab to swing inward or outward. In that case, you'll want to consider pocket, barn, or bifold door styles instead.

    Material-wise, there is a wide range to choose from, including glass, solid wood, or engineered wood, also known as medium-density fiberboard (MDF). MDF has gained a lot of popularity in recent years thanks to its cost-effectiveness, aesthetic appeal, and flexibility that allows you to apply paint. However, it’s important to keep in mind that it has a hollow core and it’s prone to water damage.
