Door Installation & Repair in Alpine, UT

Doors take daily abuse in a busy Alpine household, and seasonal swings on the bench can leave them sticking, dragging, or no longer latching. We install and repair interior doors so they swing true and close quietly again: new pre-hung and slab doors, fresh hardware, fixed alignment, planed edges, and clean trim around the frame. We also hang barn doors and replace worn closet and bedroom doors throughout the home. The work is precise and tidy, with each door shimmed level, latching cleanly, and casing finished to match your other rooms. Small details, done right, that you feel every time you walk through.

Questions

Door Installation & Repair in Alpine, answered.

Can you fix a door that sticks or won't latch?

Yes. We re-shim and align the door in its frame, adjust or plane the edge, and reset the strike so it latches cleanly through seasonal changes.

Do you install barn doors and closet doors?

We hang sliding barn doors, bypass and bifold closet doors, and standard pre-hung interior doors, then finish the hardware and surrounding trim.

Will new doors match our existing trim?

We match casing profiles and paint to your existing interior so a new or replaced door blends in with the rest of the rooms.

How much does door installation cost on the Wasatch Front?

Door installation is usually priced per door, and the unit itself drives most of the cost. A pre-hung interior door swap is the least expensive; solid-core, barn, French, or exterior doors cost more because of the slab, hardware, and weatherstripping. Labor depends on whether we reuse the existing opening or rebuild the jamb and trim. Painting, new handlesets, and matching existing trim are separate line items. We give a fixed written quote per door after measuring, so the number reflects your actual openings.

What's included in a door installation quote?

A door installation quote typically covers removing the old door, setting and shimming the new unit plumb and square, fastening the jamb, installing the strike and hardware, and re-trimming the opening. We list the door type, hardware, hinge count, swing direction, and whether casing or trim is matched to your home. Paint, stain, specialty hardware, and disposal are called out as their own lines so nothing is hidden, and anything outside finishing scope is flagged up front.

How long does it take to install or repair a door?

Most single-door installs are completed in a few hours, and a straightforward repair like a sticking door, a bad strike, or worn hinges is often same-visit. Replacing several interior doors usually fits in a day; exterior doors take longer because of weatherstripping, threshold, and sealing. Timing stretches when an opening needs the jamb rebuilt, the floor is out of level, or paint and stain need to cure between coats. Your written quote includes a realistic schedule for your specific doors.

Can you cut a new exterior door or egress opening into my wall?

Cutting a brand-new opening into an exterior or load-bearing wall, or into a foundation, is structural work outside our R101 finishing license, so we refer that to the right licensed structural and concrete trades. We handle non-structural door work: replacing doors in existing openings, hanging interior and pre-hung doors, repairs, hardware, trim, and finishing. If you're adding a basement egress, we coordinate around the trade who creates the opening and finish the door and trim once the structure is done.

Why won't my door close right, and is it worth repairing instead of replacing?

A door that sticks, drags, or won't latch is usually a repair, not a replacement, and fixing it is almost always cheaper. Common causes are loose or worn hinges, a misaligned strike plate, settling that's thrown the jamb out of plumb, swelling from humidity, or paint buildup on the edges. We diagnose the actual cause first and quote the smallest fix that solves it, recommending full replacement only when the slab or jamb is damaged beyond a reliable repair.

Door Installation & Repair in Alpine

Door Installation & Repair for Alpine homes.

Areas we serve

Foothill homes below Lone PeakThe bench near Box Elder PeakHomes near Lambert ParkLarger custom homes on Alpine's hillside lots

Wasatch Front homes span newer production builds and older settled houses, and both tend to develop doors that stick, drag, or swing on their own as framing moves with the seasons. Most interior doors here are hollow-core or paint-grade panel styles, so the work is usually re-hanging pre-hung units plumb with even reveals or swapping slabs into existing jambs — matching the trim and swing already in the home.

Homes in Alpine sit on the bench below Lone Peak and Box Elder Peak, and the housing stock skews toward larger custom builds set into the foothills. That mix shapes what a finishing project looks like here. Many newer Alpine homes were delivered with a roughed-in basement, framing, stubbed plumbing, and an electrical panel in place, but no finished walls, flooring, or rooms. Finishing that space into bedrooms, a family room, a bath, or a home office is one of the most common requests in town, and the existing rough-in usually makes the work cleaner and more predictable.

Older Alpine homes ask for more. Walls may need more prep before paint, drywall seams and textures from earlier eras often need correction, and surfaces rarely sit perfectly plumb, so careful prep matters as much as the finish coat. Bench and hillside lots are common in Alpine, and walkout basements show up often, which affects natural light, daylight windows, and how a finished lower level is laid out. Across both new and older homes, owners here tend to expect higher-end finishes, so tile, trim, cabinetry detail, and paint quality carry the project.

All of this stays within non-structural finishing: drywall, paint, tile, trim, basement finishing, and bath updates. Anything touching the foundation, structure, or square-footage additions sits outside this scope and is referred to a licensed structural contractor. Projects are kept under $50,000.
