Iron door installs are unique; an iron door does not install the same as a wood door. Furthermore, every house is unique, each home is built different and presents its own challenges during install. It is important that your installer not only understand the various construction techniques but has an understanding of the principals involved in converting from wood to iron. Do note that any foundation movement or other structural movement after install is very difficult to correct as Iron Doors can not be trimmed down like wood doors and if you suspect you may have those issues an Iron Door may not be the best choice for you as independent installers can not and will not warranty those issues.
Although installation of an iron door can be very simple, it does take some know-how and most all door issues are a result of in-proper installation or settlement and are not the responsibility of Wholesale Iron Doors. We are a wholesaler of Iron Doors and allow the general public to buy directly from us just like our builders, installers and other retailers who re-sell our door. Please note that we do not do on sight sales calls or measurements, and you, your builder or installer are responsible for all measurements provided and all aspects of applicable applications of what you purchase. Do note that we stock doors with 2×6 jambs which are usually used for 2×4 walls, if you have 2×6 walls you may need to address that with your builder and or use brick mold, a trim kit or order a door with a larger jamb. Our doors are recommended to be installed by attaching a screw thru the top L bracket of the frame and then installing the doors on the frame without the glass and then adjust the frame left or right to make sure correct alignment and door clearance and closure occurs before attaching screws and or bolts to the side L brackets. YOU CAN NOT SET DOOR FRAMES WITHOUT INSTALLING DOORS TO ASSURE PROPER CLOSURE. Bottom threshold must be 100% level, and there must be room on each side between the frame and the structure to make adjustments so that the doors close and operate correctly. TO TIGHT OF AN OPENING WILL MAKE SETTING THE DOOR CORRECTLY IMPOSSIBLE!

Important note- Door replacement is construction work. Installers do everything they can to control the dust but many factors are out of their control. We recommend that homeowners take every precaution to protect sensitive and valuable items.

Important note-most Installers do not install alarm sensors. Iron doors require special sensors, most leave that to those most qualified to the task.
